BinaryBuddha··on Show HN: An extension to turn your LinkedIn into a resume
Linkedin has a built-in 'download as PDF' feature that still seems to exist. Doesn't create anything nearly as aesthetically pleasing as this - nice work.
BinaryBuddha··on Ask HN: Which are the most damaging books you've read?
'Brave New World' - while I enjoyed it very much, I viewed the world differently after completing it... still do to some degree. Alas, 'pay no attention to the man behind the curtain'
BinaryBuddha··on Ask HN: What to do when you have no tech founder?
Learn to code and become the CTO you wish you had.

There's plenty of advice in the comments about learning to code. I don't want to assume that you want to become technical. If that is the case, I'd consider looking at bubble.is, and other 'point and click' visual software builders.

BinaryBuddha··on Ask HN: What are the best resources for hackers?
My answer assumes that you are using the term 'hacker' in the context of security, as you mention '...programming languages, scripts, tools, tutorials'. I teach CyberSecurity to a variety of age groups. We offer our students access to a list of resources, including reading material, blogs, and hands-on labs and activities; you can find this growing list here: http://www.exeltek.net/accesscyber

Happy Hacking, stay out of trouble.

BinaryBuddha··on Ask HN: Which Linux distribution do you use, and why?
Kali for Pentesting, Raspbian on the Raspberry Pi, TAILS for the privacy
BinaryBuddha··on Ask HN: Any tips on getting into teaching at private schools?
If you're in the US, I'd recommend looking at getting a private school teaching license, generally issued by whatever body governs education. These typically don't have education requirements as long as you can demonstrate proof of work experience.

I'd also recommend looking at the opposite - nonprofit organizations hiring instructors for STEM courses; many of these will have the environment you described(I only suggest this because you mention that you are prepared to take a pay cut).

Lastly, I'd strengthen your profile/ resume by using online courses and certifications

I've used a variation of these tips to land teaching gigs at both private schools & nonprofits, and hope they serve you well.

Good luck!
