Re: Ask HN: What are you working on right now?
#122Currently, I am working on homework: representing a sudoku puzzle instance in a knowledge representation description language. Next I will study for a midterm in another class until I can't manage to stay awake any more or 6 AM arrives, whichever comes first.
At 6 AM, I will shower and go to work as a software developer where I'm transitioning to building a Windows application in .NET after working in web development (PHP, JS) in all of my previous professional experience.
After I get off work, I will meet with a professor before going to class and taking the midterm.
The worst part is trying to cheer up and encourage a friend in a similar situation, because I don't feel like I am helping. :(
In my spare time, I am solving the Google AI Challenge (http://www.ai-contest.com/) and working with someone on a side project which helps groups collaborate. If the side project goes well, then we will be co-founders in a new venture.

#123Good post; very interesting to read these!
I'm a mutual fund analyst by day, returned to programming a couple of months ago after a long time away to bang out an idea in Pylons. I've missed it! In hopes of getting out of my daily grind to put more time into it, I'm selling custom acrylic displays and cases, focusing on custom iPad display trees, because it's working! Will exit securities analysis next year- so unfulfilling and statistically pointless. Index your money.

#124Work: sports-related startup.
Perso: trying to swim (not just float around) in open water every day all year round, essentially hacking my mind (meditation) & body (gasp reflex) to withstand the cold temperatures. Currently 12 deg C. [Edited to add: http://www.coldwaterswimming.com]

How have I not heard about this?!
Quick aside, how are you for scaling? If I were to roll this out across our agency and pass it on to my circle, you'd probably see a fairly sizeable jump in usage...

#127Primarily awareness building and PR for my recently launched startup - http://www.happybuy.com/ One good lesson thats recently been reinforced as part of this is that launching is really only the start of the journey. Gaining traction and building a business once the product is available takes as much if not more work.
the http://www.fortiguard.com/ network protection we have here in work has flagged your site as porn wont let me in. just FYI.

Also, I'd try testing price points of $1.97 and $2.47 when you launch the pro version.

#129I'm selling the majority of my stuff and prepping my condo for sale. I expect my employer to go out of business soon and I have to leave the USA once that happens (my work permit is non-transferable and the green card application didn't work out).
Wow, that sounds like a bummer. I'm really sorry to hear that. May the future hold better luck for you.
The same thing, basically, happened to a guy I know from the UK. He had lived here for years and was working on an application for permanent residency, but now he's no longer in the USA because of issues with his employer and visa.
