The right word would have been challenging. It's challenging to talk to customers. But challenges are fun and what got me into CS in the first place

How easy would you say it is to move back into a developer role if I say switch into product management role?
I am scared I will be asked a lot about why I am switching back into coding and why I left it in the first place? I am scared of coming across as indecisive

Thanks for the reply. In fact I have been considering moving into product management as it feels like a more stronger fit. However, I am scared if this is the right choice or if I might regret leaving coding.
I could always code as a hobby I guess.
Ask HN: Is it normal to fall out of love with coding?
I started coding when I was 11 years old and I am 26 now so thats about 15 years.All through this I have always enjoyed coding which is why I chose to study CS at college and then have been working as a dev post college. But of recently it has started to feel more monotonous and boring.Last year I started my own company and then got acqui-hired into a startup. I realised that talking to...

I actually believe its highly important we achieve this sooner rather than later. Because we are currently limited by death for a lot of things. One example is Inter-Planetary Space Travel. If you could live longer then you can travel farther and explore more.

I am a developer..the products are done halfway or upto 70%. I also built a product, infact I use it to fulfill the contracts. Even launched an MVP to get some feedback. Its just getting too hectic as more contracts keep getting added.
Re:Ask HN: Should I explicitly search for a co-founder?

So I would really like to have a helping hand/ employees. The thing is we have around 4 contracts from major companies, but I will only make significant revenue once they get delivered. I also need to work on my SaaS product for non-enterprise customers.
So money to hire or a co-founder to share work would be great help. I am afraid I might burnout working 18 hour days.
Ask HN: Should I explicitly search for a co-founder?
I had a cofounder who left because she is getting married and moving to another country and another cofounder who can't take the plunge because of personal reasons.I have very high standards for work ethics and don't want to get a co-founder just for the sake of it but looks like investors and incubators are highly biased against single founders.

Re:Show HN: ApiAiRecognizer – Use api.ai instead of LUIS in Microsoft ...
on Tuesday December 06, 2016 @01:12AM (#13112610)
The one thing I really love about Api.ai is the support for pre built domains..
However one problem is their api only directly the top intent while LUIS gives you score for all intents. This could be useful in some cases.
