Because modern day companies are broken. They hire engineers whose raison d'être is to "work" and pump out features, regardless if products reach a level of stability and maturity that most would considered finished. The enti

Upwork does 20% for first $500, then 10% up to $10k, then 5% more than $10k, but it's per client. So I figured 7% flat rate isn't bad.

Genuinely curious how women would feel if they were given a job not based purely on merit and credentials, but their gender. Isn’t that a slap in the face? Like, “yea there were other much more qualified candidates, but we just have to fill

Oh it’s not fundamental? What do you think would happen to the value of the dollar if the military didn’t exist and the US was invaded by a foreign county. Connect the dots.

That’s not what I said. It’s simple. Bitcoin has value because of proof-of-work which uses a ton of energy. US dollar has value because it’s propped up by the military which uses MORE energy (more so because there is no more gold standard)

You’re talking about borrowing and lending money, which becomes a moot point, when a foreign country invades your country and burns everything down. That doesn’t happen because we have the military and nukes that act as deterrents. That in

If crypto was actually adopted as a means of buying and selling real world goods, instead of just being held as a speculative asset, then it would consume much less energy and be more efficient than the entire system, namely the military, t

Thanks for the feedback. The site uses Stripe Connect for the money transaction. It is fully integrated into the site and makes paying freelancers a snap. Yes, at the moment, you can search by category, but I have not implemented filters ye

Hi HN, I was frustrated with existing freelance job boards. I felt they were all too bloated, too many features and the service fees are just too high. I decided to build a more minimal, easy-to-use job board that focuses on small jobs. I b
