Does this really help? I'm being very self-critical and way demanding towards myself - on a level I would never require from anyone else. But I feel that's the only way to really push forward and improve myself instead of stagnati

Just sell it in the App/Play store. (Unless something restricts that in store policies,) you can still provide an open source license and the code in Github while charging money in the stores. I'm willing to bet most people will r

Unread emails? 3 (I only keep my unpaid bills as unread). Emails in inbox all together? All of them.

(Disclaimer: I'm not familiar with the culture in India, this is based on what I would do in Europe. YMMV) I like that you're taking initiative and getting into changing the culture, kudos for that! Here's how I would start b

I would do what I do now with much less stress. 1) I teach programming to beginners and mentor juniors to help them bridge the gap to become employed faster and in more interesting jobs. I currently run a pro bono mentoring program and woul

I used to have that same problem (of not having ideas) for most of my life. Now, I have more ideas than I can ever implement. I would take a step back from startup ideas and read a book Become An Idea Machine[0]. I read it few years ago and

That's a fantastic idea! Go check out Slack List[0] for a curated list of Slack communities. If you look at the technology communities, I'm sure more than one would be happy to have someone to help people learn. [0] https:/&

I have found HackDesign[0] to be a great source of ideas and resources to learn about design. I'm a developer myself and just have a guilty pleasure in learning design so I follow along HackDesign every now and then to learn new stuff.

I'm using Momentum[0], which has my ad hoc todo-list, beautiful scenery images, inspirational quotes and weather. I also like how it says "Good morning/afternoon/day/evening Hamatti". Makes me feel good. Its to

I'm sure other people will be able to give better tips for doing the open sourcing and scaling up, so I'm not gonna touch that. I'll start with a different approach. I think the first important part is to forget the "sca

I started a local meetup with a few friends and ended up finishing the first year with 9 meetups, a hackathon and 250-ish people in the community - and the first 3 months of next year already booked with hosting companies. I had never done

No, you can only get the visa once you have a company willing to sponsor for it. For internships in US, you can apply for J-1 visa* which is an internship visa and it will require you to create a learning plan with the company that decides

It depends a lot on the company and the team but I think instead of just the new dev shouting out "Can anyone help me?", there would be a senior dev dedicated to you. That way that person knows it's her/his job to help y

Having been a junior dev in a couple of startups lately and discussed about onboarding with one of them a lot, I have a few points. This is all about the technical stuff, not anything about creating accounts or signing forms. 1) Make sure y

I disagree with this. Yes, for big companies like Amazon or Ebay it doesn't matter so much but for smaller companies and startups, it makes it more human to interact with if you can see what kind of team there is behind the product. It

I have to say, I absolutely love your app. I use it when teaching people to program all the time!

PISA is different kind of standardized test than usually meant when talking about them in education context. Not every student participate in PISA and (from what I know) it is not used to actually grade anyone. In Finland, the only nationwi

Let's remember that the Codestarter is giving these laptops to kids who are basically just learning how to use computers. 1) I think Ubuntu is a great choice as the first Linux distro because of its popularity: that means there is a la

I think one reason for this (not asking enough questions) is that usually early on your career, you don't really have that many options or you are in a situation where you need to get your bills paid with any means necessary. I have re

I really don't understand the MUNI hate people here seem to have. MUNI covers most of the city, goes frequently and is inexpensive. I use buses everyday to commute and to get around the city and find them surprisingly good.

I think most of the news sites, including Hacker News is really focused on Silicon Valley and NYC startups so unless there's company from outside US acquired to a hot US company, it's really rare for it to be in news. One big acqu

Never been to NYC, but I think it's super easy to live and move in San Francisco without a car. Publics (MUNI, BART) are good, Caltrain takes you to south and when in areas inside the city where you can't get bus/bart, Uber a
