dome82··on Ask HN: Idea Sunday
An easy way for mole mapping at home and having an personal electronic journal about it. It should be possible to share a link with your dermatologist containing your mole mapping.
dome82··on Should I leave my current position?
I think that you know what you want for your future.

Maybe, try to understand what you really love doing, where do you see yourself in five years from now and most important, what makes you happy. You have to enjoy your job. That's what I would think if i was in your situation.

Anyway, good luck with your future! :)

dome82··on Ideas We'd Like to Fund
What about ideas on medical tourism? Is that something interesting and valuable for people?
dome82··on Sam Altman for President
Congratulations Sam! Good luck with what is coming next in this adventure and I hope you will continue writing on your blog.
dome82··on Ask HN: Tech recruiters what are your biggest pain points?
I do not remember that I've ever found a competent recruiter. They are always mixing technical terms during email and phone calls hoping that some of them could catch your attention.

I feel that in tech/engineering, we need more "talent agents" that can follow the candidates during all the process for getting great jobs. They would/should care more for getting them the dream job, then getting a commission from a company.

dome82··on Show HN: Kimono – Never write a web scraper again
I like the concept and it looks similar at Import.io
dome82··on I Got Fired Last Week. That’s a Good Thing. Here’s Why
I am not sure that if you’re not the best at something, you’re replaceable. I think that both specialists and generalist are important at any stage of a company.

Am I missing something?

Check BJ Fogg's Tiny Habits. Great way to change your habits..

- Write more - Get a little better in what I do daily - Exercise more - Buy a house - Travel more
dome82··on MD and CS
I did. It is really interesting working with them, even if they change their mind very often. However, some of them could be afraid of using new developments that you may think they could actually improve their working lives.
dome82··on Ask HN: What was the best book you read in 2013?
A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy
dome82··on Chef, Puppet, Salt, Ansible. What do you use for server setup and deployment?
Using Chef Solo and learning about Docker recently. As soon as possible, I would like to read more about Ansible.
dome82··on Poll: How do you feel about working hours?
I completely understand you. Loving what I do, but burning out lately...
dome82··on Need some career advice
It seems that you have already decided to leave that job. You are not enjoying it and you should not waste your precious time in boring stuff.

Too many exciting challenges out there. It is nice that you are learning other programming languages and it will open you many possibilities in future.

Do you have any side project that you are working on?

dome82··on Ask HN: Real estate market and selling your house
It is common to pay an agent in Italy. My brother is contacting them but I wanted to see if I could some good leads online.

About the price, it is more or less what an agency told us sometime ago. I guess that I could try some A/B testing on the price.

dome82··on Ask HN: Real estate market and selling your house
Not really sure if I had to put ASK HN or SHOW HN :P
dome82··on Looking for a co-founder
Just curious: why are you using a mailinator account?
dome82··on Ask HN: Where do you find interesting papers to read?
Mendeley could be a good start. :)

dome82··on Ask HN: What are you looking to achieve in 2014?
Be happy. Enjoy life. Be closer to the people I care about.
dome82··on Ask HN: What is the best advice you have ever given to someone?
"Use as much time as possible with the people you love and enjoy these moments. Life is short."
dome82··on See Your Folks
I agree. I was in the same situation one year ago with my father. Unfortunately, he passed away 3 weeks ago for lung cancer...

If you can, you should say to the people you care about how much you love them. Time is limited, memories stay forever.

dome82··on In what areas are the massive fortunes of the future going to be made?
Healthcare: Cancer treatments and cancer drugs for fixing cancer and improving the patient's life. Sometimes, Chemio can be devastating.

Self-treatments on demand: someday, you wont need to go in a doctor office for diagnoses, medical check-ups and treatments.

dome82··on Ask: Read a book that changed your life? Title?
A guide to the good life: The ancient art of stoic joy by William B. Irvine
dome82··on Ask HN: Why aren't you working on a startup?
I work for a startup myself and I am really enjoying it. It is a really great place to work. Moreover, I am working on some projects on healthcare but it is difficult to find folks really interested in this field where I live (Oslo).
dome82··on Ask HN: Why aren't you working on a startup?
Sorry about your illness. You seem to have lots of experience in this field and you should start working on some business apps for Linux and smartphone. You can also write a business plans and that's great.

In your life, you should focus on things that you are in control, such as your desire and goals. You can't do much about things that you don't have control like people's opinions.

Start building, show what you are doing and probably, this people at Saint Louis will change their attitude. If they don't, you should not care at all. Some people will not understand how you feel until they get in the same your situation some day. Smile them back and try harder in what you love to do.

Have a great day!

P.S:Join some events like Startup Weekend, pitch your ideas or join other teams. It is a easier way to improve your social skills.

dome82··on My 32-year-old co-founder has a brain tumor
Wish you to get well soon!
dome82··on For Medical Tourists, Simple Math
I am working on an idea for medical tourism. We should talk. I'll email you soon :)
dome82··on Heart Surgery in India for $1,583 Costs $106,385 in U.S.
I think that it is already forbidden in some countries to get specific medical treatments abroad. It is so wrong, and I would not be surprise if it is going to happen in U.S.A. too.
dome82··on Ask HN: ToS and Legal Liability
Thank you Patrick.

This was really helpful. I did not know about these professional liability insurances...:)
