Show HN: Albums Vault, my take on how to manage Spotify album library

https://codefloe.com/rabc/albums-vault

I am a long-time Spotify user, with tons of albums saved but never with a proper way to manage it: display genres, see what I've already listened, and many other things.I was finally able to bring to life the idea on how to handle the tons of music and it is named [Albums Vault](https://codefloe.com/rabc/albums-vault/). It is a macOS app built with Tauri + Rust, with plans to release to more...

SEEKING FREELANCE - Germany

I am long-time iOS developer, since version 3, having worked with Objective-C and now with Swift (and modern patterns like MVVM and RxSwift). I have experience with back-end development too, working with Python, PHP and building the API for some of my own apps.

I am currently working in Munich (Germany) and looking for a freelancer job on my spare time.

This is my Linkedin, where you can see my previous experience: https://de.linkedin.com/in/ricardo-borelli-6080408

And my Github, where you can see that I am part of some open source projects and an early stakeholder of Swift Server Side Workgroup: https://github.com/rabc

I didn't believe when I received their email about it and bashing Let's Encrypt initiative. If StartSSL could do it, why they haven't done it years ago? Bunch of scumbags.

Re:Parse and React, a Shared Chemistry on Wednesday March 25, 2015 @01:59PM (#9264695)
I'm in love with React and starting to use it everywhere. Should I already get worried it will be deep tied to Parse?
I didn't go through all the comments on the thread, but so far what I've seen is just bullshit. People around here are reading too much the DSM (or going to the wrong therapist, pick one).

You have anxiety, OP? Good! Most of us have to deal with it. No, I'm not saying "stop it and cheer up!". It's a real problem, but doesn't need to be a problem that will make your life stop.

I went to a roller-coaster of emotions in the last 2, 3 years (from valleys of depression and anxiety to peaks of extreme happiness). I went through everything you said, the impostor syndrome is the fuckin' worst shit that can happen to someone. This train still hits me, sometimes. That's not easy.

How did I overcame it? Changing my thoughts. The impostor syndrome faded away when I realized that the people around me don't know what they're doing, too! Nobody knows how everything works and I'm still looking for answers about how the world didn't meltdown yet.

See? I didn't get any better changing my mind by saying that I'm good and I know what I'm doing. I got better because now I see that everyone are lost, just like me!

Fear of embarrassment? Learn to fix quickly what you did wrong. Nobody will notice nor will care if everything is working. And when you see that other people are lost too, as I said above, you won't care if you're good or don't.

At the end of the day, it's just you that matters. You don't need to proof you're good to everyone. You know that you're good because the point you've reached in your life.

Email: ricardo.abc at gmail dot com

I'm a Software Engineer with experience in integrating two sides of a project (example: a mobile app with a backend API, doing both at the same time or working close with one of the sides), fixing a database structure and informations (migrating from an old to a new way of doing things) and starting projects from scratch, with a total of 9 years of professional coding experience.

I'm an iOS developer since the old days of iOS 3, always an indie developer and being a full-time developer for 3 years. In the indie life I had the opportunity to build a bunch of apps that have been published sometime along the years and 2 apps that are current live in the app store (contact me for more information).

Re:Linda Sandvik Resigns As Director Of Code Club on Thursday August 28, 2014 @08:41AM (#8236908)
AFAIK, you can express your believes as a person and don't need an endorse of your volunteer group.
Re:Linda Sandvik Resigns As Director Of Code Club on Wednesday August 27, 2014 @01:10PM (#8233275)
"Here, take all this money and be quiet about everything we do". That's not how a healthy society works.

Google are sponsoring Code Club not because they're good guys, but because they have some business interest in it.

They must be accountable for their actions, good or bad. Linda Sandvik expressed her believes as a person and she did great not accepting being silenced just because she was hurting the feelings of a big company.

Cool animations and simple idea.

(Just a friendly reminder for everyone else: remember to delete the app from you Facebook. You can find it by the name you.me.we on Settings > App Settings)

Re:Amazon Cognito on Friday July 11, 2014 @11:24AM (#8020601)
It's the same with almost every BaaS. Do you want your data? Pay for it.

That's why I always advocate for building your own backend, if you have a long-run plan and/or expect to generate a lot of data for the app.

Something like that. Then you can make a selection based by github, mobile apps published (counting even the non-worldwide apps, for developers from other countries like me), academy works and other projects (websites, hardware, etc).
Great idea, but it seems to be designed for well connected people. I don't know anyone outside my country and I really want to work abroad someday (I had plans for it in the past year, but have to abort the idea for some reasons and want to try again next year).

How can I appear in the newsletter? Just asking a friend to send me in the form? But maybe he's not a well connected person too, and the 2 referrals in the latest newsletter[1] are from people who live and work in the startup world.

So, in the end, it becomes a lottery: ask someone to send your name and wait for your luck.

Re:Introducing the new PHP on Heroku on Tuesday April 29, 2014 @03:09PM (#7669278)
In the end, it's just business. Heroku is owned by Salesforce.com and they want to make more money.

The Ruby community is for Ruby. Period. A company can't dictate their own policies based on ideas of just one community.

Re:Announcing Stack Overflow in Portuguese on Wednesday January 29, 2014 @08:08AM (#7143552)
Brazilian developers don't google in portuguese because they know it'll always be faster to search in english, but I have seen a lot of developers struggling to find the answer in english because they can't understand and don't know how to search.

Yes, because we all live in a society with gender equality, right?

> filter the scholarship candidates based on female-oriented areas of study

Yes, girls must play only with dolls, because only you (man) should play with the cool stuff.

Awesome. No more words to describe.

I thought that Hacker School is an amazing idea since the first time I read about it. Now, it became something much more bigger, a response to the sexism that spread in software development (it's not an exclusive problem from U.S., but it's a start to inspire everyone else).

My congratulations to Hacker School team and to Etsy initiative.

I hope someday I can attend to some batch :)

Cool! Another way to build crappy iPhone apps with HTML!

App Store rules exist for a reason. There is better ways to make them reduce the approval time by not creating workarounds to build your app with limited HTML.

Re:The Path to Hacker School on Saturday January 07, 2012 @10:21AM (#3437159)
Yes, 3 months. 3 weeks was me trying to think clearly late night doing a lot of things at same time :P

AFAIK, visitor are allowed to stay for 90 days (3 months) in U.S. with a travel visa. nandemo info was really useful, I will read that careful.

Re:The Path to Hacker School on Friday January 06, 2012 @07:11PM (#3435671)
Great story, great idea, great plan.

Since it's only 3 weeks, I don't think you Hacker School has too much problem accepting foreign students. But it will be a problem for startups trying to hire? Or they're OK aout trying a foreign employee?

A suggestion: Hacker School don't provide certification or grading, but you could set a page with the names of the students for future reference.

I'm really thinking about taking a 3-week vacations and try Hacker School after I finish my Master of Science degree. Even if it's just to learn more :)

I'm starting writing an essay for my Software Engineer graduate course and it will be about architecture and design patterns for geolocation systems.

I checked SpacialDB page and it seems to be really good and useful for my essay, I want to use it to describe one of the three cases. Can you send me a beta invite, please? I registered there with this email: ricardo [at] fences [dot] com [dot] br

I'm working on a business startup project and this essay will be part of it, so I would like be a new customer when project start.

[edit] (ps.: I'm from Brazil. Feel free to contact me with that email.)
