Sharing with HN: a starter app to understand Cloudflare Containers (introduced in June 2025 as beta) The official docs were vague and examples pretty bare, so I made a inspector/de…

pro tip: if you're dwelling in apartments and can't spare a bedroom or closet, use a "grow tent" ($150-$250 on Amazon) to isolate your workspace from toddlers and spouses - big eno…

ARQ on OS X backs up your data to AWS S3|Glacier or Google: http://www.haystacksoftware.com/arq/ I'm not affiliated with the developer, just a big fan.

At a small company, there's never an excuse to not send a personal email to a candidate.

Sometimes it's not a good idea to give too much feedback, if any at all. I used to automatically provide feedback of why a candidate did not pass the interview, then I had a few so…

I choose who I work for by these attributes: 1) does the company provide a product or service that makes a world a better place? (e.g. Nest, Tesla would qualify) 2) are my potentia…
