Noodles Explore is my latest project to help anyone find the best recipes on the web as quickly as possible. Just enter whatever you're looking to cook, and Explore will find some …

👍 Thanks sodevious!

Interesting story. I think that while I may not find an internship this summer, I can just work on side projects and keep learning — that can always continue, even if I can’t work …

Thanks, John! I really appreciate your response; you’ve got a lot of good advice there. I’ll quickly respond here from my phone. I’m trying to learn some other languages/architectu…

By the way, I will be 14 once an internship would start. This opens up the child labor laws a lot.

Thanks for that! I’ll be 14 by the time the internship could start, so it sounds like one could work out in regards to the law.

ksenzee: Nice! I spend a ton of time working on open-source projects over Assembly: http://assembly.com/ . Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks joliss! That sounds great — I’m going to look around on StackShare and find some interesting companies. About the labor laws: I’ll be turning 14 right before the internship …

I completely agree with that. Normal kid things sound incredibly boring :)

Draft ( http://draftin.com ) is a great version-controlled writing app, though it's not what I would call note-taking. Interesting idea though!

Hey everyone! I'm the primary developer for Noodles, an app for all your recipes. If you have any feedback or questions, I'd love to hear them.

Zack Shapiro (@zackshapiro) built StopCoin as part of his Built in Public project ( http://builtinpublic.com ). Here's more of the story about it: https://medium.com/built-in-publi…

Someone actually built that, it's called ProducTind :) https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/productind/id891384124?ls=1&...

Have you seen Plivo? It's pretty awesome.

I'm Lachlan, and I also helped build Helpful. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
