luisivan··on Show HN: Boreal – A New iOS Client for Hacker News
This is really cool, I love its design!
luisivan··on Can blockchain technology send notaries on vacation… for good?
This one absolutely does.
luisivan··on Show HN: Stampery. Send notaries on vacation using the blockchain
Thanks! Well, depending on what kind of service you wanna replace it's actually legally binding. For example, private documents can be easily stamped using our service. And anything creative (music, art, etc.) as well.
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
I have to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the overwhelming support, I never thought he would get all this help.

I'm an avid HN reader and a somewhat active member but never imagined this could go up to the frontpage, you all are awesome.

I told my father about all the opportunities and interesting comments here, and will continue helping him get a job. Thanks :)

luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Yeap, he "downgraded" from executive to developer at one point, not a very smart decision but that's how things are...
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Thanks! He'll email you :)

luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
He's hasn't a perfect English but enough to work, and yeah, he would be prepared. He coded in C++ several years ago, not sure he's up to date...
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job

luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Yeap, he runs a free software association but he doesn't usual code on GitHub
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
I just sent him the link to sign up :)
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
I think it was more the fact that he got married and had two child than the pay
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Yeah, these kind of jobs are hard to find. Well, he is actually willing to relocate and he speaks English, so let's hope that works out
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
That's an interesting point. He's been working for some months on his own project, that is an app for managing SMEs' salesforce. He has some experience on the enterprise so he really understands the problem.

The thing is that he is actually 3 steps from being on the curb (I live alone and am economically independent)

luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Well that position has expired, anyway just showed djangojobs to him, thanks :)
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
He just emailed you, thanks anyway :)
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
He's not currently using GitHub, but this is his personal webpage: http://cuende.net
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
That's good to know, weren't aware of that
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Cool, he just mailed you :)
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Should he reach you out or something?
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
That's really awesome, just showed it to him. He will try his best there, thanks a lot!
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Yeah, he usually goes to startup and software events in Madrid, but he should probably do it even more. Thanks!
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
That was really funny because he almost went to work to Xerox New Zealand when he was an executive. He has been trying to contact people from his network, but they have all changed from company, role and even industry (most of his contacts are from a couple decades ago)
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Well, the thing is not that he wants a premium salary, he actually is below market price, the problem is that there is too many people willing to work almost for free
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
Oviedo, in the north. But he wants to move to Madrid/Barcelona. Oh cool, I see he's a senior as well, he will contact him and let's see :)
luisivan··on Ask HN: My 56-year-old father is a developer having a tough time finding a job
No, he has not! Didn't know about that, but I'll tell him to definitely look into UK banks and apply. It might be a great match as he knows all the old tech banks are based upon but also the new stuff they could use to make their systems better. Thanks for the insight :)
