Built this to microblog everything I am learning as a dev. It's an MVP, lots to improve on! Would love some feedback. (:Also am looking for a job (preferably remote since I'm in SG), 1.5 years in as a Jr Dev at a local startup, self-taught by building stuff. I'll be on Twitter if you're interested! @raymondmoay

Thanks! I'm not sure, haven't found one. I'm kinda a sucker for heat maps so I just married the ideas...
Thanks! Let me know if you have feedback. (:
yea this is neat, fresh. Love the old school preview on hover.

Looking out for well designed sites (or software) that looks and feels authentic. Any ideas?Everything in the "Dribbble design bubble" is starting to become an eye sore.
Built lifeofdiscipline.com, a habit tracker inspired by GitHub’s contribution calendar. Took me a year to break the 500/mo mark.

Made this todo list + calendar heat map over a couple of weekends, so its rough, but should be valuable enough to be used.Currently stores data in local storage, but I'm working on persisting data with auth + a database.Features coming in the couple weeks: (1) Search, (2) Categories.Hope you find it useful!

I launched this a year ago when I just learned how to code. It's been a year – currently in my first tech job and remade the app with better tech.

I thought about this a lot. Initially, I wanted phone authentication, but decided to do that next time when the problem arises. Then I realised that the goal of this is long term investing, I.e. 3-5-10 years. I doubt these “return miners” can do so over the long term while writing good insightful posts on their positions to build enough reputation to thrive on the platform.
But then again, it’s still possible to maintain two to three accounts running different strategies. And so moving forward, I’d either try phone auth or Stripe’s identity verification.
Firebase is annoying damn. Will figure it out.
(1) yes high commissions are designed to promote long term holdings (hence the name of the platform). I’m still trying to figure out simulated taxes.
(2) hmm, do you mind elaborating? For me, it’s not an exact replica of my personal portfolio, but moving forward it should be a relatively good proxy to it.
(3) I think the commissions itself will eliminate profits from minor arbitrage, but large deviations are possible to arbitrage successfully. Thanks for this, I’ve added a ticket to solve this issue. Will implement open market timings for trades.
(4) Search is far from optimal for now... super rough MVP. Will improve of course.
You’re right. Currently high frequency trades are penalised by commissions which has a fixed component. I’m still banging my head trying to figure out a simulated tax environment, but I’ll get it done.
The goal is to make it as perfect as it can as an imperfect proxy to investor skill.
I’ll be writing some articles as posts on the site in the coming days, hopefully it’ll help you get started!
Weekly updates sounds like a good idea. I’ll put it on the roadmap. Thanks!
It does not as of now, but I’ll be working on shorting soon. The goal was to initially find good long term companies to invest in.
Regarding the verification email, I’m using Firebase Auth now, will figure out the cause. Thanks for letting me know! Have you tried resending the verification email?
Thanks! You’re right on the use case. Hope you’ll find value in this. (:
Actually, I'm not selling anything. The authors themselves get to sell subscriptions to their readers when they gain reputation. Yea, it's fictional, but hopefully it will be a better proxy to their value as compared to outright selling a newsletter subscription.
Plus, authors can only start selling subs after 6 months, and no one would subscribe if their ideas are bad. I'm trying to build a skin-in-the-game kinda system as much as I can with the constraints that I have.
Might need to work on my copy since you didn't get it. :(

Hi there! Made LongTermBoard.com as a Jr. FE engineer fresh from leaving the investment field but still in love with it.Back then, I'd read articles on investment forums and wanted a quick way to determine if I should spend time reading the analysis. I wanted a quick way to determine if the author is a good investor.LongTermBoard solves this by making it easy to view the competency of the...
Just like the naming tbh... it's kinda cute and the domain is available.
Thanks! Made this for myself while learning testing.
Wow resourceful! I open sourced this to get my first job in code. Gonna private it for now, and consider open sourcing it again when I secure some requirements.
You are right, this is as general as it can get for the initial screening phase for me. I then deep dive into the reports.
