Thats truly sounds interesting. Currently, we are focusing on these 3 primary investigations: extreme environment; earth observation; gravitropic research

Sorry, I should give more info. One of the experiments is a plant that grows on ISS. We collect the data that the plant is producing. Developers can even grow their own plant at home and compare their data with the data on ISS in realtime. Just to give you one example.

Both :) We already have experiments on ISS that you can actually play around with and we want to measure interest.

The International Space Station

Hi, Karan here, I am one of the co-founders. We plan to release a product that will connect developers with experiments on ISS. You will be able to test, learn, and build your own products. Please sign up if you are interested when we launch.

Thanks for the comments and answers. It seems that the "idea" of a more equal payment is too far away from the current reality. Hopefully, the world will change in such a way that location will not be an important factor.

Thanks for your comment and question. What do you think about this argument: Actually what we try to do has been done by, for instance, Google: They find people with great skills and ask them to work for them in California. They pay them so much that they will work for them and even move to Cali (at least before Covid-19).

Now in a Covid-19 context remote work obviously created a new way to think about salaries. If you sit at a desk in Cali or in Germany and do basically the same work, it will be very hard to communicate why the US developer should earn so much more or why the German one should earn so much less :) At the end of the day we could thus start with just a few companies being willing to pay the global price tag of the skill. The result may be that these pioneering companies will hire better talents. This will also cause other developers to demand the same. As this shift slowly progresses it might become a standard in how developers are paid.

Hi HN, I am Karan. One of the co-founders of Superpayr. I wanted to ask your opinion on a product we thought is necessary: The way we see it is that no matter where you live, your salary should be based on your skills, not the place you are living. We want to do something about that developers (with a comparable skill set) earn so differently due to their location.

Superpayr analyzes your skills and puts a global price tag on them. We want developers to earn the same based on skills not based on location. What's your opinion on this? Do you think you can get behind this?

David Kriesel (the guy who detected the Xerox issue 3 years ago) has been data mining Spiegel Online (the online version of Der Spiegel) for a couple of years now. It will be interesting to see what other articles are full of fiction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YpwsdRKt8Q

Maybe David is willing to hand out the data he has downloaded?

Auto-completion and aliasing make a lot of sense! Thanks for that. We will look at StackOverflow's list. I think their API allows to fetch tags... but not sure. I will post to this thread when I find out. Thanks again!!!

Thanks for the feedback. It's a bit fast, indeed. We will slow it down or take it away in total.

Thanks so much for the valuable feedback. And you are right, the bookmarklet is not easy to find. It’s funny how we didn’t see that while developing. Only user feedback can do its magic:)

Great idea regarding the examples. By best practice source code we had in mind to bookmark something interesting and important to each users purpose.

In the end of the day users should be able to find all kinds of annotations. The configuring of projects reference you mentioned is the one I prefer the most.

It helps beginners and advanced coders. Let’s hope we build what users want. Again thank you so much for your feedback.

Thanks so much for your feedback. Yeah we thought about offering to users who tag now a free usage for life. AWS Turk is a great idea to add. We will certainly take a look. Thanks!

Hi HN, Karan here. Tobi and I built this experiment to see if people are interested in deep linking into GitHub Repos. We also plan to compensate users. Once we have enough paying users we will share the richness with our users. But we are just starting yet and have no paying users. We hope to get some feedback by HN on this idea. Does this makes sense? Thanks in advance!

Pretty awesome. Thanks!

How about Udacity? https://de.udacity.com/course/deep-learning-nanodegree--nd10...

I am a guy and hear and read about diversity all the time. But I get the feeling that not a lot of founders are taking the question of diversity serious enough to act. Here are my thoughts, which are imperfect for sure. Feedback by you guys is much appreciated.

No question, just wanted to say thanks. Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. I enrolled and will have a look at it soon.

More than two years ago we launched a project to teach refugees how to code. Now we have a student demo day at Google in Munich. Are you hiring? We could not be happier. Please join us. It's free. To attend please send us an email to [email protected]
