Mail-In-a-Box (MIAB)[1] comes with a built in nameserver. I think you may use it as a standalone DNS even for the domain names whose email is not managed by MIAB. Not sure about any benefit of doing it this way though. [1] https:/&#x2

I can only give you a datapoint but unfortunately no advice 1. I never discovered any movie on IMDB. I go to IMDB to find trivia, cast or some other fact about a movie that I somehow already knew of. 2. My interest in an open source project

There is more to this: who is you? If you are the owner who foots the bill and has the capability to run your own infra then nothing beats it. If you don't have the capability then cloud throws you the lifeline at a price of course. Pa

Yes, I am building an application tracking system(ATS) that also includes a job board. Among other sources, I used HN to populate the job board. My project is not open source, but I am happy to share the HN scraping code with you if you li

Your site looks really nice and addresses a real problem. Are you targeting US only remote roles? If not then including any domicile or timezone restrictions in job snippets may be helpful. Also thanks for providing the feed.

Congrats Nico. Came here to tell you about the HN API ( https://github.com/HackerNews/API ) but I see cheesehead beat me to it. Using the API it is much easier to pick up the latest thread each month and setup a cron job

The maps on that website have some very cool features including "Journey through time" which allows you to see the maps going back to 1864.

Nitpicking is contagious. Once one does it, then immediately others feel compelled to do it too, me included... Their pricing page looks amazing. Not because of any funky UI stuff but because of the slight displacement of the decimal point.

Not until it works. But when it doesn't you have an office full of people waiting for someone to fix that broken build server. In terms of lost productivity this disaster is very expensive. Over the years I have suffered only three har

I would do exactly what you have done here if I were the dev of the said app. But with the luxury of being an outsider, a user has expressed an inconvenience and it seems to make sense, then if I were to be the dev of the app here, wouldn&#

> How hard is it to create another “internet” which is completely detached from the current internet? Seems like a good way to explain the meaning "network effect".

My bad. I was just responding to the parent comment and the comment(by showbug) they were replying to in isolation. Figma is a product I liked and was so terribly disappointed with the news of acquisition by adobe. Regarding startups, I jus

My favourite comment as well in this world so full of pump and dump shows. The mentality is so intrenched that if you are not one of these pump and dump shows with an exit strategy then you are labelled a lifestyle business instead of a pro

Oh. Thanks for letting me know. If you want to search for remote then Job type dropdown will help you filter on that or just click on the flying satellites on the map. Again appreciate your feedback.

Maker here. Most of the data is from HN with a small amount also coming from weworkremotely (thanks guys). Accuracy is not very good e.g. we associate the listing to the first geographic location found on the post. Use it for fun but go to

Not commenting about the ppl who are subject of this thread but talking in general. I have been lucky enough to have seen some of these 10x engineers but what is much more common is a 1x engineer feeling and treated like a 10x engineer beca

Thanks jlokier for taking the time to give your perspective. I guess generic nature of many job descriptions comes from the fact that you are forced to have a job description. When I talk to friends they will usually say something like they

I agree with your assessment. That's why I am trying to explore the possibilities without looking at the money aspect of it at all. Thanks for your comment.

Thanks itronitron. I look at both the applicant and the job advertiser as my customers. I want to take the frustration out of the job application process by making it very easy for an applicant to apply and for an advertiser to scan that ap

Thanks yellow_lead. Both very valid points. #2 is almost a basic necessity but yes you are right that many website don't do it properly. Probably they measure the number of emails sent and try to optimise that.

To be honest, this is one of the first things on my list. A company should not be able to advertise a job without disclosing at least how much they will pay. That is pretty much the first question any potential recruit will have on their mi

That's perfectly alright ksec. Perhaps it is not a technical problem but a people problem. Or even a system problem that turns people into lying job seekers and unreasonable employers. Perhaps another manifestation of the same phenomen
