Looking for a new developer job, we need to invest quite some time - tech screening call, code challenges, whiteboard interviews etc., before we get to speak to the company about the team, the role and company's approach to engineering

It is all about cryptocurrencies lately, so why not having a board game! Cool! :)

If you don't mind me asking, were you actively looking for a new job for 3/4 of 2017, without being employed anywhere? Finding a job in tech shouldn't be that hard, I would think. Your situation sounds quite like any other bi

I am really sorry to hear that. I can't say I have been there, but I was going down that line and so I took a career break. I didn't even feel I need it, but once I was on the break and stepped back from everything, I realised ho

Might be the time to move on? Sometimes waiting pays off, but not if it takes long time and makes you so unhappy.

I hear you, getting comfortable at job sometimes means you might get bored too quickly :) Depends on the person really, wish you best of luck!

Improving coding skills is a lifetime work :) Does Bay Area work out for you? I heard salaries are high, but so are life expenses.

Ah, working from home is a great thing, it is a shame more companies are not open to it. Keep up the good work!

Wow, must be a great job:) I always get surprised when I see someone at the same company for 10+ years in IT.

That's an interesting worry to have! Sounds like fun, you definitely won't be bored at work.

Sorry to hear that! Couldn't agree more tech interviews are long and difficult and require lots of preparations. I had some that lasted 4 -6 hours, man that is long! I also find that you get to speak about the company and the role onl

Cool! What do you find is the best advantage and what is the biggest downside working in a small startup as opposed to a big corporate?

You had the whole spectrum throughout the year. It is interesting how a company can change from great to complete opposite in a year time. It reminds me a bit on my 2016, I left eventually after one more merger happened, it was hard to foll

That is something now, hard to beat that.

Congrats on your first year fully remote! I was thinking of switching remote as well. Did you encounter any challenges that you normally wouldn't have? If I may ask, why are you leaving it?

If you are into coding, I would say give it a go. You can learn in your spare time and see if you really like it and want to make a career out of it. Stacks, huh, it is a tough one. It is really individual, I personally have started with C,

I am not sure I would use it, but there is lots of Slack fans that would love this :)

Sounds good, will try it out.

Cool idea, I can see how it is useful. Doesn't have to be only for Twitter, if you get gif file, you can use of wherever (e.g. Product Hunt).

So does it export the database in file and then version controls that file?

Not a fan really, what if you are interrupted while writing and have to look back?

Hahaa, this is funny, cool!

This sounds very interesting. Which database is it - mongoDB, mySQL,...? It is not very clear.

That is a cool visualisation! One thing is that the page is in spanish (thanks google translate), I would assume not everyone will understand it.

Oh, I like this! Had so much troubles at my previous job with getting the updates, is there something new, then one dependency breaks other one....such a mess. Great job folks!

It might be useful, but I am finding it pretty hard to understand what it is from the landing page. I would suggest putting the message there clearer.
