Hi HN, I built this because my pre-market routine was eating 45+ minutes every morning — checking TradingView, Finviz, economic calendars, news sites, fear/greed indexes, all before market open.*What it does:* Market Digest pulls data from 6 free sources (yfinance, TwelveData, Finnhub, FRED, NewsAPI, Fear & Greed), runs multi-timeframe technical analysis (daily/weekly/monthly RSI, pivot...

Re:Ask HN: Does increase in responsibilities and headcount warrant pro... on Wednesday September 02, 2020 @06:25PM (#24358906)

I think if your Job Description changes and you have to manage more individuals the complexity of your job also increases. You should indeed get some sort of increase in $$$ or promotion, ideally both.

You may have to work a few months in your new role before your boss will consider a pay increase. While you wait, collect the facts and figures that show how your new role benefits the company. Decide the maximum and minimum you'll accept, then ask for a meeting.

Re:Ask HN: Are RSUs worth your loyalty? on Tuesday January 07, 2020 @04:14PM (#21984934)

There are a finite # of RSUs which management can distribute to high performers or valuable team members vested over a period of employment time. Here’s why I feel like job security is oddly related, why would the organization want you tied to them for that vesting period if they did not value you or your efforts or want you there for that period?

I have been in the industry for quite sometime and received many different benefits from all types of employers. RSUs have been one way I determine my job security or lack thereof. What benefits or lack thereof do RSUs have for Engineers or Engineering Leaders?

I understand it takes a minute to vote, however, in the digital age why are we not voting via a digital medium?Is it politics, regulations, lack of technology in this space? What would it take to move to using a digital mechanism to vote?

from the ask-hn dept.

Hey HN,I'm building a new team of 20 software engineers in downtown Dallas. I have recently been meeting a lot of great candidates that are happy with their current roles. I understand that, however, what if the opportunity you present is better? How can you convince them of taking the leap? Have you been in this position, what made you take the leap?

If your organization needs someone that closes all the issues so fast you can't believe it, writes clean code, writes the documentation, and then refactors some ugly piece of code on the other end of your app/site into something beautiful, I think we may be a good fit. I can code review, write tests, find ways to make your site/stack/app/build process better, faster, cheaper, safer. If I don't know it I can definitely learn it. I have worked in a remote lead role for large enterprises and even been a part of the full stack development of solutions.
