Re:Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (June 2015) on Monday June 01, 2015 @01:02PM (#9640224)
SEEKING WORK - Berlin, Germany or Remote

I’m a freelance developer of many talents. My primary expertise is iOS/Cocoa; I am also very well versed in writing server-side applications in Rails, Node and various Python frameworks. I generally like to work with smaller companies where I can contribute to many areas of the software stack. I particularly enjoy solving problems related to optimizing performance and scaling.

Does this silence the relentless "Software Update" notifications?

Ask HN Contractors: What do you use to track your time, invoices and billing?

Posted by nrj on Monday November 04, 2013 @12:58PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I am a software developer and in about a month I'm going to start contracting again. I have contracted before but for the past 2 years I've had a full-time job. In the past I've used Quickbooks and hated it. I'm wondering what some of you use to keep track of your time, expenses, invoices, general bookkeeping etc. Preferably looking for something web based.

Re:Ask HN - What's it like living in New York? on Thursday October 31, 2013 @02:28PM (#6648738)
This is purely an opinion and totally depends on where your priorities lie. All of these things are true and your overall cost of living will be lower. However you will most likely need a car and your social life won't be as exciting because everything will be happening in the city.
Re:Show HN: I made an iPhone app that helps you manage your S3 files on Thursday October 24, 2013 @04:05PM (#6607586)
Looks great. Nice design, though I'm not sure that I would ever need to manage my S3 on my phone.

Shameless Plug

Coincidentally I just launched a similar app for OSX - http://bucketsapp.net

Re:Show HN: Euclid for Mac on Monday August 05, 2013 @11:18AM (#6160596)
Developer of Euclid here. I made this app over the last couple weeks mostly to scratch my own itch. As a person who develops a lot of UIs this tool is invaluable to me. Whether I'm working on an iOS app in the Simulator or a web app in the browser, being able to call up fullscreen crosshairs with a hotkey is super helpful to make sure everything lines up. This is also sort of an experiment for me as I've never sold anything on the Mac app store. I would love to know what HN thinks of Euclid, any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks for looking!
