Re:Ask HN: How do you set a goal and stay focused? on Saturday May 23, 2020 @02:22PM (#23285150)
Two things that helped me - Setting realistic goal. Implying Decide 5 things and then trimming them to top 3. Do everyday a little of each 3. - Deadlift. I know there is no co-relation but it helps me keep a clear mind and get more focused on other aspect of life and goals.
why is this post not on the frontpage of HN ? Very strange.
I did this exactly right now and super pissed on what they are trying achieve by this jumping around the hoops
Thank you OP. It was in my spam and now i know that i will avoid Triplebyte like plague.
1. Please no red.

Re:Ask HN: Expecting Promotion but Now My Manager Is Leaving on Friday November 16, 2018 @01:02AM (#18466788)
Couldn't have said better. But from my experience, assume the worst and be ready to walk away.
If its anything I expect their will be fights and complains. Hell yeah inam clicking those l. For now my mind looks for

1. Uber screwed up in a new way.

2. How interview process sucks.

3. Why this X language / framework sucks or we are leaving this.

Re:Ask HN: How did you find your passion? on Wednesday July 11, 2018 @11:39AM (#17507751)
For me it's commit to th unknown if you have 1percent of interest and if you could do that job without any motivation that's your job. If not then move ahead to another until you click. Keep repeating .
Re:Ask HN: What 'smartphone' should I get my mother? on Wednesday July 11, 2018 @12:03AM (#17504396)
i would say ipad.

1. Bigger display.

2. Lesser chances of clicking the unknown.

3. When things are bigger, they look more friendly.

My 2cents would be if you want yourself to be markatable, anything less then top tier school is waste and won't do any good. But if your objective is to learn and have a new experience then ur good with alot of schools.
Re:Ask HN: React Native or Not on Friday July 06, 2018 @11:52AM (#17472407)
I think all depends on the project. In ur case a Coursera app would be easy to do even with video play back. But issues seep in when you try to do complex features and their bugs and implementation. My 2:cents would be time box your react native implementation and decide if it's worth it.
On a different topic. I feel material design makes website a clone of another website .
Re:Ask HN: How do you balance side project time? on Tuesday July 03, 2018 @03:56PM (#17453176)
I usually do like 2 hours a week. I look forward for those hours. It's like my mind is racing against time and it's long enough time to finish and accomplish something.with 15 mins I sometimes find it hard to get in the right mindset

I use protonmail. No complaints
I would say python. It's written like English and it's pretty fun .

Re:Ask HN: How do you record your personal finances? on Friday June 22, 2018 @01:43AM (#17371650)
keep it simple. use mint.
Before this discussion starts between how the interview process sucks. Here is my 2 cents:

1. Pick up leetcode (or whatever rocks ur boat).

2. Do a lot easy questions and understand the pattern.

3. Do medium level questions and understand the pattern.

4 If you are aiming for Big 4 do Hard.

Coding interviews is all about finding the pattern and applying it. Only way to be good at it is practice. Don't give interviews without some practice.

I would also agree with the tone of the rest of the comments. You could work in the best company doing the shittiest work and working in the shittiest company doing the best work. At the end of the day - Take a chance. Make mistake. Learn. Keep repeating.

Re:My CSS3 Animated Resume on Saturday March 10, 2018 @05:10PM (#16560424)
not to be discourage you but i liked it artistically but functionality wise its quite low. You are fighting with users attention span and you go to present your best work asap on the web page. I hope i make sense.
