Re:The worst job interview I ever had on Wednesday May 27, 2026 @11:14AM (#48295590)
> I get being naturally bummed by this but I can't justify feeling anything but vaguely nostalgic about it. Someone with a $20 subscription can mog anything I can build with the skills I picked up.

Welcome to the data science job market of the 2015-2023 where everybody with a $20 online course could become a proficient data scientist in only 4 weeks!

thats why they invented /new and the refresh button.

Tbh, i have a procrastination problem and HN is as good as an excuse as any other social network.

Reading all these comments, I feel like US universities are a joke.

I had to do all the exams in person. 100% of the grade was decided at the exam. Millions of people graduated this way and they are fine. No students were harmed in the process.

Ask HN: Claude Code Phantom Usage

Hello,It has been a few days that when I start working in the morning, claude code shows that I have already used around 20% my current session quota, despite not using it at all during the night (or at least for 8 hours).Is that going on for you too? Do you have any idea on why this is happening?

Firefox is literally the competition lol

The 3 AI were plotting to eliminate me from the start but I managed to win regardless lol.

Anyway, i didnt know this game! I am sure it is more fun to play with friends. Cool experiment nevertheless

Re:Why being a technical CEO is an advantage on Tuesday January 20, 2026 @06:02PM (#46698846)
I agree with that. I can get away with it now because I dont have any staff yet and also i dont have the budget to hire any.

I get to “indulge” in the tech now because the developers that was hired to develop the MVP has been doing a terrible job.

I know once the product is in a better place i will need to shift my attention elsewhere and not go back to what feels “comfortable”.

I had a thinkpad x1 carbon. Amazing machine, i liked how sturdy and lightweight it was. Plus, i loved playing with the trackpad cap during boring meetings.

Only downside was the cooling: the fan was constantly spinning and producing noise akin to a plane taking off.

Re:The CEO Who Couldn't Pick Two on Thursday January 08, 2026 @10:34AM (#46542214)
Hello all, I think this is my first submission on HN.

I have been recently started my journey as a startup CEO. I have always worked more on the technical side and I consider this a big jump in my career.

This piece revolves around my feelings and fears in how to tackle impossible requests from the Board and managing low performing dev.

Enjoy

In the whole history of the world, humans have always strived for automating their job and yet, here we are with a single digit unemployment rate.
