I use DigitalOcean. I know people have had issues with them but so far its been nothing but a good experience. I also prefer being close the metal as far as a server goes so it fit my needs perfectly.

I feel the same as you that Node seems to make sense in my brain. I find JavaScript in general really fascinating to begin with.

Ask HN: Create custom, personal Hacker News email digests

I've had this idea swirling in my head for a while that there should be a service that allows you to setup custom filters of Hacker News submissions and then receive a digest of them either daily or weekly.

This feels like something that everyone knows about but doesn't acknowledge. I was one of the youngest people at the place I work to become a Senior Engineer. I didn't think I was doing any more work than anyone else, but better at being efficient.

I actually already use IFTTT for this exact thing. Anything I favorite that has a link gets put into Pocket. Is that essentially what this is doing?

Hey everyone, author here. I first want to say, I appreciate the feedback. This is my first article that I think people have actually read and going back, I saw all the mistakes that you guys did. I've gone through and done some edits.

I apologize for the inaccuracies. I was just looking to help some beginner JavaScript developers.
