Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2020) on Monday August 03, 2020 @11:09AM (#24038658)
Nuna | Software Engineer | Full Time | Barcelona, Spain or Remote | https://www.holanuna.com/en

Nuna (https://www.holanuna.com/en) is an early stage startup based in Barcelona, Spain. We're a small team of 2 full time founders (Alumni: Typeform, Google, Uber, Glovo). We are building a platform for easily finding the right online therapist for you, as well as building out the tools for therapists to be able to do all their work online.

I am the technical co-founder, most comfortable working on the backend, but currently I'm working on all parts. We are looking to expand our team with two profiles, frontend and devops/backend engineer.

Frontend Engineer:

* Help expand the current feature set by building new features

* Ensure the quality of existing features

* Improving the current build pipeline with linting, automated tests etc.

* Bonus: if you have an eye for design / ux this is a big plus

Devops/Backend Engineer:

* Running/expanding the current infrastructure

* Managing monitoring, observability and scaling

* Help expand the current feature set by building/improving APIs

Tech stack: Go, PostgreSQL, NATS, Jitsi, WebRTC, Next.js, React

The ideal candidate is: Open minded, flexible, detail oriented, cares about quality, willing/in a position to join an early stage startup and interested in mental health and the ways of improving the current state.

Note: We're not funded yet and are looking to raise our seed round. For that reason, this would naturally be a high stock low cash role at least until this year.

If it sounds interesting or if you are interested in joining at a later stage or if you have any questions, please send me an email at [email protected].

I have added the -short flag to do this.
Yes, it's about 250 lines, and if you have links installed you could do something like this instead:

  bashwiki() {
   links -dump "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$@" | head -n 60
  }
And call it with `$ bashwiki golang` and you get the summary (and some of the other text). My guess is that someone a little more familiar with bash could strip the extra output and make it a bit nicer though.

As they say "to each his own" :)

Do you mean how to do plugins for your application?

I use this route in one of my projects https://github.com/walle/gas/blob/development/bin/gas

Basically, all executables in your PATH that conforms to a naming convention is a plugin. If a match is found it's run.

So in my case you can call both ´$ gas list´ and ´$ gas-list´.

I don't know if this is the best way to do it, my inspiration was how git commands work.

Re:Markdown editor with live preview on Wednesday January 30, 2013 @07:01PM (#5142594)
Quick project I threw together tonight.

Enter markdown on the right side and see the live preview on the right.

Supports github markdown eg.

```ruby def foo :foo end ```

Only tested in Chrome. Safari seems to work but Firefox have a bug with the textarea.

Re:Mathematics: Came across the following gag. Is it true? on Friday October 19, 2012 @07:04AM (#4673001)
I did a quick test for this, would add a comment to the stackexchange thread, but it's closed now.

Test at https://github.com/walle/pi2ascii

The algorithm can be greatly improved though.
