None of that is new. The TBM that drilled The Tube’s crosstown could do that as well.

Thanks! What’s a way I can contact you? I’d love to learn about what’s out there. If you don’t want to post here then you can email me at “lassitergregg” at gmail.

I'm good at "S.T.A.R.", most of my effort in the past is using CAR and PAR but it's not a hard shift. I'm glad to hear they don't limit it to just technology problems. >"the problems you failed to solve

I'm like you, I've got some really niche experiences. I went to a #1 program at an arguably #1 school for undergrad for the industry I was planning on going into. I also have a unique personal background (extensive life-long trave

It would also be tricky because you'd have to get everyone transferred in time. Those stretches would have to be pretty long.

I'm not sure about the specifics, but it would drop cars in the station on the route. It was from Amsterdam to Prague via Berlin. This was back in 2013, so I'm not sure if things have changed.

That's the thing, right now, I don't really have the "right experiences" that's why startups do seem appealing. I have the skills people are looking for but not the resume validation with internships, the right degr

> I have a bias for cash, not equity. I'm like you. I'd rather take cash and dump it into my 401k or an index fund for retirement.

Yeah, I doubt I'll even bother to apply to the big 5, maybe even the big 20. I'm coming out of a yearlong software intensive in October with a liberal art major from a marketing background. I know a few people at those companies b

I was on a sleeper train a few years ago that would detach cars as it went along.

In theory it could work. I think one big problem would be the erosion of the rails, slowly drifting apart.

If only non-Europeans could do these requests. There are a few companies I'd love to know what they are doing with my data.

Awesome! Also, I chuckled at part of the GitHub org description, a "fun sketchy look."

What types of issues did you encounter?

I do understand the underlying problem, it's more or less looking for the one that treats the service as that... a service rather than myself as their product. I could start my own mail server, but I'm not at that point yet.

It’s probably not hosted in the US, likely the UK. It could also be on the UK’s own servers.

So, what are the best alternatives? I know about MS office and I think Zoho has email, who else is out there?

that is a throwback, starting a phpBB forum was one of my first forays into the web back in 2001.

How’d you buy yours? I emailed them and also looked on their site but never saw where to purchase.

Does HN have any suggestions for people switching careers into software engineering/development and landing junior/entry-level roles? Such as, what parts to focus on outside of transferable soft skills? Using myself as an example

It’s very unlikely you’d become a pastor with just a BA. The only normal cases where that happens is in rural churches, or if one goes back to their local church. Otherwise, the trend and job requirements for an Associate/Assistant Pas

I'd suggest changing the narrative. I've read through several of the comments already. I agree I think your biggest con (pun not intended) to an employer is the risk/breach of public trust of your prior convictions. However,
