could you point out where is the best place to look for contracts in the Netherlands?
I'm not an HR person but it looks pretty look. I wonder why you came across that pricing model?

It does seem complicated, unless that's something you've researched? Have you tested with the usual "small/medium/large" company offering?

Out of curiosity, the author mentions a possible alliance with another companies (McDonald for example) that would share savings, breakage, and data.

Anyone would know if this kind of idea is behind or maybe related to Facebook Libra?

how about corporate tax?
Re:Ask HN: From zero to IT career, what is the fastest path? on Wednesday November 26, 2014 @01:31PM (#8663824)
I’d say a safe bet is Javascript, there are plenty of online resources, good courses online and whatnots. Although it’s true that self learning is possible, I guess the _fastest_ way would be to join few coding meet-ups (there are many here in London and they are free) and learn together with other people.

They should keep a blog/github with their progress too. They basically need to prove they can “do”, having a CV saying “Javascript: 3 month online course” won’t work.

Are they prepared to move away from Barcelona or Vienna? Cities like London and Berlin are great place to look for a job in IT.

best of luck

In UK that's done by Crunch (http://www.crunch.co.uk/)

Re:Show HN: RemoteCoder.io – A jobsite for remote programmers on Thursday October 16, 2014 @06:56AM (#8464281)
A good job board is often a by-product of an active community. Look for Stackoverflow, Github, and even the now defunct 37Signals Jobs (rebranded in WeWorkRemotely).

If you could build a community around it, then companies will be happy to pay (and I've learnt this lesson the hard way!). Follow petercooper suggestions and best of luck!

what's the service you're using for http://showcase.hackcampus.io/ ?
Re:Ask HN: How to learn design as a hacker? on Friday August 15, 2014 @10:53AM (#8182424)
It was a book with a good design, although it didn't help me learn much about design. The references were useful, but I would have liked to be a step-by-step guide (similar to Drawing on the right side of the brain, but for design) instead of a showcase of 'good' design and some side note tips.
Re:Flux Application Architecture on Friday May 09, 2014 @07:02AM (#7720196)
Someone in the video asked a question about how AngularJS compares against Flux+React.

Anyone has a more detailed explanation?

Re:One Week After Launching My Startup on Friday February 21, 2014 @07:42AM (#7276653)
Ok! But that's not an answer :) it's your press release. Looking forward to reading how "CodingCupboard got on TechCrunch" in a week!
Re:One Week After Launching My Startup on Friday February 21, 2014 @07:17AM (#7276577)
How did you get a mention on TechCrunch?

Edit: I think CodingCupboard is nice idea, don't get me wrong, and in your first week you've got a mention on TechCrunch (startup dream, as you wrote).

Can you explain how it happened?

Re:Flappy Space Program on Friday February 14, 2014 @03:57AM (#7237595)
Would you mind sharing how you've made the game?

True, I didn't think about it!
Re:My Coffee Setup on Friday November 29, 2013 @02:00PM (#6820555)
In italy you'll find a mocha pot in every house. Any expert in coffee could tell me the difference in taste if you'd use the mocha (using hot water under pressure) or the drip method?

Re:I didn't get into YC – here's my project on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @05:15AM (#6674294)
English is not my first language, and I also find it useful. Maybe it could be worth having a look at other 'segments'( students learning english?)
Re:I didn't get into YC – here's my project on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @03:49AM (#6673988)
why the email is "optional"? you should try to get emails instead, and build a mailing list of people interested in your product!
Re:French Startups to Look Out For on Sunday November 03, 2013 @12:13PM (#6663992)
Not in that list, but I think Smartmeup is quite interesting too: http://www.smartmeup.org/index.php?skip=1

It's a great story. Mind if I ask how did you get the first programmers to sign up?
Re:London Startup Map on Thursday August 08, 2013 @11:06AM (#6179350)
Andy, the only reason it's because I live here. I'm happy to see marks also in Bristol, Manchester, etc etc.

Also, the frontend code is on github, feel free to grab it, modify as you wish and add another city.
