mib32··on Avoiding outrage fatigue while staying informed
I’m getting outrage just by reading this comment.

edit: it makes me curious about how that works!

mib32··on Huly – Open-source project management platform

mib32··on Lago, Open-Source Stripe Alternative, banks $22M in funding
I was working for a company in France, while based in Latvia, and we worked according to B2B contract and I was just invoicing them and paid all my taxes. No problem.

Can you please explain, why the ruby engineer vacancy is remote only within certain countries - FR, PT, GB, NL, ET, and IT? Why if I live in Latvia or Poland, or Sweden, I can't work with you? I don't want to call you out, but it's just interesting to understand why it's like that and specifically, why we can't try to make the geography more diverse, at least within EU?

mib32··on Switching to Elixir
Yeah but it doesn’t matter - if someone inputs something weird you will anyhow fail with TypeError
mib32··on Metric Time
For some reason, the left clock is going faster than right for me.
mib32··on Ask HN: Could you share your personal blog here?
You can join me on telegram https://t.me/antonmurygin
mib32··on Ask HN: Have you ever not done anything on work whole day?
A bank :)
mib32··on Did Reddit just destroy mobile browser access?
But it will die without it, right?
mib32··on Socrates on the forgetfulness that comes with writing
This is why now instead of taking notes, I only take voice notes. Each time I need to think about something, to clarify in my mind, I launch Voice Memos on my iOS device and record my thoughts.

It immensely helped me to structure my mind and be more clear about my ideas. I highly recommend that to anyone.

mib32··on Ask HN: Project Management at a Military Operation?
Looks very intriguing. I think we are safe to say this is where agile is really coming from.
mib32··on More content by people, for people in Search
I think it’s quite clear: when I search for something, what I want to see, it’s people arguing with each other on my topic of search, and I want to read their various arguments, and make my decision.

This is why I like HN and artisan forums so much, or even Reddit.

Google could do just one thing - prioritize giving out the discussions of real people. But they just don’t wanna do it apparently

mib32··on Ask HN: What is something you built but never marketed?
TaaS (https://www.t-a-a-s.ru) - your own headless telegram instance (running on TDLib) accessible via API
mib32··on Facebook's TikTok-like redesign marks sunset of social networking era
You should try telegram. Can make your own channel there and share with close friends
mib32··on Ask HN: I’m 41 and still unmarried – what should I do?
Maybe we, men, really better want to impregnate woman sort of surprisingly.
mib32··on Life is not short
Hey, but what I should do, if, say, I don’t have my own house and I really need to buy one? How can I just stop doing what I don’t love in that situation?

Also, what about the situation when one day you really love your work and find it very interesting and fulfilling, but the other day it’s just the opposite?

How did you find a job at Spotify btw? :)

My idea is about that, I think that every developer, when joins the project, must have an equal share of the whole profit of the company, just like the founders do. Otherwise it's not fair, that the product of their labor doesn't bring them any dividends.

But I agree that it's of course strange, for example, why would the builder of the house get the part of profits of the house after it's built? It's also a bit not fair

The big question is - maybe we should really move away from capitalism, to something like communism, but more like crazy utopic communism, where everyone is CEO? So such kind of problems wouldn't really happen? How do you think, could it help?

UPD: please don't downvote me, I am on spectrum

Why has this post disappeared from the home page?
mib32··on A conflict with a manager ended with me being disallowed to work at Spotify
That's so true. I was in similar situation as OP, I was always very rude and hardcore to my manager, and it was all fine - up until the point where I publiclly embarass her. That's when I got fired.

Though my plan was to fire her like this.

"When the X will be done?"

"Tell me when it's needed to be done!"

But isn't it one of the manager role goals to keep the developers churn down? I wonder, how is this balanced, when it's more important to have the correct subordination, or keeping the churn down.

The problem is that, according to OPs Linkedin, landing at Spotify was a huge career goal. I think that he really thought high of himself + really wanted to stay. Maybe he even did not realize that he is "just a contractor".

Sometimes, when manager asks me what's the estimate, and I think it's just too much to reply... I ask back - "Why are you asking this though?".

It's weird, but usually I get in response something, that make me really understand well what to reply to them.

It's interesting, how much this question is controversial. I also have had similar problem. It was a bit different, but similar. Much time passed, but I still can't understand who was right. But I also can't understand, why I was fired, and the manager stayed. Was it me who is wrong, or the manager?

I think it would be good to reach some kind of consensus. Is it okay for the manager to be rude and not listening to needs of developer?

mib32··on Consciousness is not computation
Everything is consciousness. Even the stone has it. Meditate deep enough and the truth will unfold for you.

TLDR is very good idea, yes! Thanks!
