thesanerguy··on Show HN: Build your own ridesharing, gig, on-demand apps Firebase and HyperTrack
Any live production app that was able to use this code base and build their own app finally? Wondering how easy it is for someone to take this production.
thesanerguy··on Show HN: NextJS + Node.js library for location tracking of business assets
Have you seen businesses, that want to track assets, move to smartphone based tracking instead of traditional GPS tracking? Any pros and cons?
thesanerguy··on How we built a serverless architecture with AWS
How easy or hard would it be to switch to self-managed components as you grow from 10X to 100X? Quite often, they end up becoming a tech debt that remains in the back burner. Just curious.
thesanerguy··on How we built a serverless architecture with AWS
How does the cost of DynamoDB (and other components) compares to other options that you considered, especially at scale? Would economics works with the same architecture say at 100X scale?
thesanerguy··on China forbids anonymous online posts
I had to cut down the title because of 80 characters limit (tried using the full title but got an error), so chose this phrase from the headline. Sorry if it felt like a click-bait.

Also, the post is all about how China is eliminating posts by anonymous users on Internet. Not sure what you mean by "its not in the content"?

thesanerguy··on Build Uber-for-X within a day using HyperTrack
Agreed. We did open source an example app for service-visit use case (https://github.com/hypertrack/service-visit-example-android) some time ago. To make it even simpler, we developed a walkthrough (https://dashboard.hypertrack.com/onboarding/). Do you think the walkthrough is what's required?

P.S. There are a few more example apps (that use HyperTrack) that we open-sourced. Do check https://github.com/hypertrack. Would love to get your thoughts.

thesanerguy··on Ask HN: What if all internet websites forced IE users to switch to Chrome?
I will switch to not using websites at all and just using apps :)

Would love to get these alerts on Telegram :)

thesanerguy··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2017)
HyperTrack | iOS & API Engineers | India | ONSITE, Full-Time, https://www.hypertrack.com

At HyperTrack, we are building the location stack for the developers. What Stripe is for payments, or Twilio is for communication, HyperTrack is for location.

We love building simple solutions to complex problems. We love building beautiful visualizations for complex location data. We deal with location, maps, smartphone platforms, device sensors and pretty dashboards. We obsess about designing elegant and generic API abstractions that add value to our customer's software architecture. We release our SDKs in open source. We organize and participate in meet ups. We actively contribute our ideas and techniques through blogs, and engage with developer and product communities.

If you want to be one of us, please send your bio to knock.knock@hypertrack.com for one of the jobs on https://www.hypertrack.com/jobs.

We are always looking for great talent. If you have a strong pedigree, have over 5 years of relevant engineering experience and can contribute to the device (Android/iOS), server (API, devops), web (everything JS) or data, please send us a note even if the job is not listed.
