Any chance you could run a comparison of the number of Rust vs Golang jobs over time? I seem to have noticed that Rust has gotten more common than golang in the job postings, but it's hard to verify without code because there are so many false positives for "go" on any post.

#52As an added detail regarding the "remote" v "in-person", another interesting statistic, to me, is to know how many of those in-person job-seeking companies are repeats! It could absolutely mean they're growing rapidly, OR it could mean they're having trouble finding candidates. Equally, missing remotes could mean either they're getting who they need OR they're going out of business.
All interesting plots on the graph!

Using a 100 billion parameter LLM to `grep --count` surely is something

> To post, submit a story whose title begins with "Show HN".
I'm not sure what you mean by that. Most reading material is just fine as a regular post and can't be a Show HN, thats very near the top of the thing I linked: On topic: things people can run on their computers or hold in their hands. For hardware, you can post a video or detailed article. For books, a sample chapter is ok. Off topic: blog posts, sign-up pages, newsletters, lists, and other reading material. Those ca…
I don't know, 0 posts and two comments, first post with self promotion right away. I had a feeling it's not allowed, oh well

#58> https://tamerc.com/posts/ask-hn-who-is-hiring/#what-javascri... "Node.js" and "NodeJS" are drawn as separate spheres, is that intentional? Similarly for "Vue.js" and "VueJS". (Maybe the same for "Angular" vs "AngularJS" too, although the former might be referring to Angular TypeScript).

Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to submit your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. I don't know, 0 posts and two comments, first post with self promotion right away. I had a feeling it's not allowed, oh well
Edit: Maybe I'm figuring it out, is it that you thought that self-posting is strongly discouraged and that 'Show HN' is a label you're supposed to use to identify self-posting? They're not directly related, Show HN is just a special HN category with its own subsection and its own extra rules. Nobody has to use it but if you do use it, the post has to be within those rules. The other, somewhat orthogonal thing is that you can post your own stuff (in or outside Show HN), just don't overdo it.
