- Clear timelines on the interviewing process. Some companies show no respect for your time. Telling me to pop by the office to "chat" at a specific time and then telling me your agenda for a 4 round technical interview on the spot is not going to inspire any sort of trust.

- Ask me questions that actually apply to the job. If I'm building an iPhone app, please don't ask me to run through a gauntlet of white-boarding/coding challenges that don't apply to the job. Have me walk through something I've built or talk about how I would build a theoretical iPhone app. Most of us aren't building software for self driving cars so please quit acting like we are.

- If I'm writing code or solving problems, give me an ideal scenario to do my best. Let me use my own computer (not one that you just handed me setup to your preferences.) Potentially let me do it at home (where I am comfortable and not in an unfamiliar place.)

- Gauge confidence on the technical stack

- Don't say we'll be in touch shortly and then ghost. You can say goodbye to someone without false promises. I'm likely to tell fellow developers about how the process went.

- Have people with decent social skills interview

- If I ask questions like, "What should I be prepared for?" please give me a basic agenda or guidance. It'll go much better for both of us.

Thanks for the thorough response. This is very helpful. The tech team doesn't exist yet so this would be from scratch.

It is a startup (with a decent size seed round.)

Do you ever run into bugs/crashes that are way harder to resolve with React Native?

Thanks for sharing this. That rule is helpful

The first time I took it, I took two 500mg capsules and felt something similar. Since then, I have only been taking 500mg and feel fine.

Rhodiola + Ashwagandha is my go to at the moment. Haven’t used either long term but, I’m really surprised by the combo.

How long ago was this? Was it a specific region or all over? Did you try to raise funding or it was all bootstrapped?

I would love to know this as well.

I've been wearing Felix computer glasses for the past ~2 weeks. I was really surprised to see the difference. My eyes were so strained all the time previously and that feeling has almost completely gone away.

Last year ~115k. If I was actively seeking clients all year, I could get that number up much higher. I want to work on side projects though. That was with a 40/hour a month retainer and one big job that lasted ~5 months.

I had the same outlook as far as taste goes. I really think it is just our palette being trained to love this type of food. After switching to a vegan diet, I do not crave meat whatsoever. I really enjoy all of the dishes I would have never eaten otherwise.

The company Tyson invested in stacks up quite well to conventional meat. http://beyondmeat.com/

I wonder how this will play out. When Instagram Stories were introduced my friends mostly migrated to using Instagram Stories and my engagement on Snap went down.

As others have stated, they use Stripe for payment processing.

I have 4+ years of iOS exposure, some design chops, released 8 apps in the App Store. I prefer native iOS development, but I am skilled in backend and frontend web development as well.

Howdy HN!

Thank you for checking this out. I am currently in the development stages of this app. I am searching for feedback/gauging demand. Open for any questions as well!

I am looking to work in an early stage startup. Preferably, in an iOS position. Check out some of my past work at https://dribbble.com/morcutt.

Ah! The joys of being a one man team. I had the wrong email in there. I updated it now. Thank you for letting me know.

It will be available in every country. I just updated it. Let me know if it works.

I am working on fixing this right now. I used an API that validates and formats the numbers. Apparently some mobile numbers outside the United States are not returning as being valid.

EDIT: Should work now!

I agree, the market is saturated and more and more of these type of apps are coming out. For version 1.0, I am going to keep the focus on keeping the app as minimal as possible and analyze users feedback to help guide the direction of future versions.

Thank you for the feedback! From the original design, I have toned down the bright colors a bit and added a tiny bit of texture to make the white text easier to read. I probably could tone down the brightness a bit more.

Awesome! Thank you for the feedback. The application will either be $.99 or $1.99. It is currently just me doing both design and development.

As far as your questions go:

1. Reminders and calendars currently sync with iOS Reminders and Calendar. I will update the website to specify that.

2. The RSS feed currently aggregates from a single source. You can search (using Google feeds API) in the settings section of the app for a single feed. I will jot down the multiple sources suggestion for future versions.

3. The weather section gives you the current conditions and temperature, 12-hour forecast (in 3-hour intervals) of conditions, temperature, and chance of precipitation. The current API for weather is forcast.io.

Here are a few (low budget!) vine videos demonstrating the app :)
