Remarkable 2, hands down. I have had a terrific time with it. A pleasure to use and an impressive boost of productivity as it has the best of both worlds. Being able to handwrite and organize files in folders on a single device

Colonist.io

Yes. As the social animals that we are we need to devote to a certain social duty, wolves, ants, bees, penguins, you name it...any animal that lives in community look for the benefit of the colony, doing the opposite would be unnatural.

If I could only pick one it would probably be my desktop chair:

hag capisco[1]

Why? -It has helped me feel better about working all day long sitting on a chair which is something I don't think humans should do.

-It is well built and I know I have purchased something I will have with me during many years

-I use it on a dialy basis

Similar logical purchases I also feel proud about this year:

Backpack:Tumi alpha bravo (high resistente nylon)

Headphones: b&w p7 wireless and etymotic er3xr

Coffee machine: aeropress

I'm about to deploy a new version of eink.news.

We create a new ebook every few hours or days depending on the blog cadency.

It does exactly what you want although we just support HN and IH(indiehackers) for the moment.

You can contribute and create a new parser for the blogs you are interested in. The parsing modules are open source :)

If you miss the headphone jack don't buy an Iphone. When buying a product you are actually validating its design with your purchase. Every dollar is a vote and money is the only language companies talk.

It's a very good way to learn new things, keep your body and mind fit and feel yourself productive.

It's even greater if by tinkering you do something great for society, relatives or friends.

As other people mention in this post, I also consider side-projects a way of tinkering.

Learn about philosofy of life (like stoicism for example) . This is a very practical knowladge that will help you live a better and happier life. It might also help you find what next you wanna learn.

Amancio Ortega, one of the top 5 richest person on earth and owner of Zara and few other brands donated 350M€ last year to the Spanish public healthcare system. We got new mammograms all over the country.

Check out Thinkpad T470, t470s and x1 carbon last generation. Very nice technical support. 3y warranty. High linux compatibility, and a bunch of other extras like trackpoint, 14inch mate screen, dual hot-swap batteries and 4g intrgrated modem.

2 interesting ways:

# Competing in hackathons overseas (I got many job offers this way)

# Getting inside interesting IT, or VC facebook group, many times they offer jobs this way. (I got my current job this way)

Privateemail works pretty well, 10€/y and I think it's like 3€ or 4€ per each extra email address. As mail client I use thunderbird and K9. I very much appreciate my privacy, so I would always use things that I can understand how they are making revenue without selling my data.

My bad, I got confused This post is actually the first attempt and I thought it was the third one and I was pretty amazed

This post has been uploaded 3 times during las 24hours, second attempt got into the front page with over 300 upvotes.

OP even commented multiple time last time it was uploaded.

It sound awesome. May I ask where are you located?

Well, it's due the adblocker. My bad.

I've been working on remote for a couple of years now. I would suggest you to try the same although I know not everybody might fit for remote positions.

About how to get a job, well I do move a lot and work really hard. I have never had to attend to a regular interview and I have never 'applied' for a job. What usually happens is that I meet someone that at that exact moment are looking for what I can offer, so I offer myself. They set an interview with the CTO, and after a few weeks they can't remember how old I was or what degree I had.

Talk to many people, work hard on your side-projects, attend meetups and hackathons and don't try to screw anyone when working on remote.

My situation might not be common, I feel myself a bit lucky, but I know there are more people like me and maybe my experience might encourage you to do the same.

Good luck and don't give up, you don't need a degree to prove what you are capable of. Work hard!

Maybe I'm wrong but I would suggest you looking for a job and show them what you can do.

I've been working as a developer for a few years now and although I don't have any CS degree and I'm pretty young (low 20s) employers trust me after a couple of weeks.

Look for startups or entities that don't have too much burocracy and show them what you have done before. What usually happens is that you will get a freelance job for a couple weeks and they will hire you.

Real companies need real people doing real things, they don't care about bullshit. If you ship you are in.

Thanks god my assumption was wrong.

14 votes, still no answers.

My logical conclusion would be: Many people hope they could recover from a huge failure but very few really do

If you make profits you should declare them like any other person. You'll be taxed as a trader, more specifically a FOREX trader, as you are trading with currencies.

I don't think he is like your father in law, not even close. He drinks way less than your father in law, and he is having this concerns because of people like you. You are judging him like he is drinking a bottle of vodka every day.

To the OP, don't worry. I'm from Spain, and hey man, you are totally fine. Drinking 5 nights a day? Half bottle of wine? And you call that drinking? Not really, come on vacation to Spain and you will see that's totally fine, no one is missing their duties for having 2 or 3 cups of wine when having dinner. Even my mum drinks more than that :P be positive.

I think your problem is not that you drink much, is more about you might feel like you can't quit drinking. Like others have said, I would suggest you purging yourself or quiting on drinking for a short period of time so you can feel you can control your drinking and not the other way around.

I do love vertical mouses. I highly encourage anyone reading this buying one for themselves.

As soon as you start using one you will feel the difference, you really feel like your muscles are in a more natural position.

If you handle a vertical mouse for a couple of minutes and then you change your hand position into a 'normal' mouse position you will feel that something was wrong with your previous mouse.

My recommendation would be this model:

Durable and affordable. I've had 2 of them in the last 4 years. No special software + linux compatible + great feeling even after several hours of coding + it performed well when I played 'LOL' and designed CAD

Maybe you can contact me and tell me what the project is about, I might be interested. Check my bio for email.

I think your project is very very cool, and I was thinking maybe we can work together on this. We created a very similar thing, but instead of scraping RSS, we scrapped some well structured pages like newspapers and blogs.

If you are interested in working together please reach me out!

You can check what we did here: https://eink.news

Absolutely. I thought about creating something similar to humble bundle, where you can pay as much as you want distributed as you want. Or creating a git tracker, a tool that tells you at the end of the month which packages and repos have you used /cloned more so it can distribute your monthly donation budget accordingly. The problem with this approach is that you are not giving any chance to all those people who are developing stuff on their own and you don't even know they exist (this happens constantly if you are using a linux distro). I have many ideas I would be very happy to share. I'm on vacation right now, but I will write you back if you send me an email to my personal email. Check my HN personal description to get my email addresss.

Me! It's an idea I've been thinking a lot lately. I have some ideas I would love to discuss if there are more people interestes in doing this.We can get in touch if you want.

Thank you for your comment, very much appreciate it as I didn't know any of the Islamic banking finance system. But that's now what I'm worried about.

I don't want a loan. I want my digital money to have the same qualities that physical money has. I'm looking for a place I feel comfortable giving them my money without having to worry about if they loose my money or not while investing it nor deleting me from their db. I don't want them to track my info neither. Just a place where I bring them my money, they save it and they give me access to that money with a debit card.I would pay 10$ a month to have digital money, or something similar to what I describe.

You are right, thank you for the correction. Post edited. The problem with prepaid cards is that I don't feel like my money is secure neither. What if visa fails? What happens to my prepaid card if visa/master card fails?

Don't you feel like it has to exist at least one company in the globe that the only thing it does is taking your money, secure it and give you a credit card?

What if any of these companies delete you from their db? It sounds like I'm paranoid but I don't understand why we do trust them at all. In Spain and Italy two big banks have failed this week.
