Re:Show HN: Meeting Location Calculator on Thursday March 02, 2023 @07:12PM (#35003946)
Thank you for the feedback and heads up. But are you sure that it is not optional? It is a feature directly provided by leaflet (https://leafletjs.com/reference.html#control-attribution) so I thought there would be no problem in me hiding the prefix. I really have no idea about copyright regulations though so I will take a look.

Re:I think developer portfolios lack text on Friday July 15, 2022 @07:54PM (#32113992)
My philosophy is that I want to be upfront with who I am so the person who hires gets to know me a little bit. And I definetly think it is their business. Personality plays a huge role in whether you are a good or a bad fit for the job.

I think developer portfolios lack text

Posted by jonashendel on Friday July 15, 2022 @06:44PM
from the self-post dept.

When I decided to make my portfolio, I started by looking at other developers' portfolios. I saw many fancy websites, with animations and cool visualisations. But one thing always bothered me. Even after viewing the site, I still had no idea who that person was and what their personality was like. I find that a crucial part of a portfolio website. It is important too So when I made my own, I...

Re:Ask HN: What would improve your bookmarking experience? on Friday July 15, 2022 @12:13PM (#32109645)
Really cool project, I like the "reaching out via email" and "reading time" feature. However my plan with the app is to make it more like a second personalised internet. I'll give an example: lets say you have been reading HN for some years now. Every now and then you have come across an article talking about the how to hire as a startup. Back then you found it interesting but you weren't in a position where it was relevant information. Now however you have your own startup and have to hire. Now you wish you had those articles. Maybe you have bookmarked them somewhere but can't find them because they got lost between the 100s of other bookmarks and/or in a complex folder system. Maybe you even forgot that you have them somewhere. And when you google for tips the only articles that come up are generic corporate tips. This app will help against this. You dont event have to remember that you bookmarked it. If you search in google, the currently empty right part of the screen will be filled with results from links that you have bookmark and fit the query (based on categories assigned to the bookmarks, most used words in the article, bookmark title and notes)

The point of this app is not really to have a place to store bookmarks, but rather make a new internet with the links you have saved. I am also aware that most people already have some sort of bookmarking system. Therefore one of my main focuses is making it easy to start and even stop using the app (export/import).

Ask HN: What would improve your bookmarking experience?

from the ask-hn dept.

TLDR: I am making a bookmarking app, what would improve your bookmarking experience?I am currently working on a product to improve the bookmarking experience on the internet. I surf the web almost every day and come across interesting articles all the time. I don't always have time to read them or want to come back to them later, so I then bookmark them. However, this often results in me...

Re:Ask HN: How did you correct your sleep patterns? on Friday November 26, 2021 @01:40PM (#29352799)
Dont try to go to bed earlier, wake up earlier. Youll get tired and therefore want to go to bed earlier. But youll be tired for some days until you get used to it, so dont do it in a stressfull time. Holidays would be optimal
Re:Ask HN: Anyone else tired of all your music? on Friday November 12, 2021 @04:07PM (#29204536)
I once did a digital detox which included no music. When I finally listened to music it felt amazing. Way better then before. I would suggest to try it, even if its just for a few days

Re:Show HN: Interactive Visualisation of Bézier Curves on Thursday September 02, 2021 @02:22PM (#28395510)
In the last 3 days I've worked on this little side project. I got the idea when I saw this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVwxzDHniEw . I just had to agree with her. Bézier curves are truly beautiful. While coding this project I sometimes found myself playing around with the curves for 10-20 minutes. Something about them is just hypnotising.
