   Although this app, sometimes gets me to my worst... I think it's only fair to call them the best work from home site.

• I was an actual shill for 9 months, AMA

  If you are learning web development, goto upwork.com and start doing projects. Your old projects & code is a lot more valuable than some references from a company. Source: 7 months ago

• Insulin pens are driving me bonkers

  I just wanted to say, for anyone reading this far: this is the sort of thing you can hire a programmer to whip up for you to carry around on your phone. u/dark_rug just up and did it, but for anybody else finding themselves with a little spreadsheet to do calculations that they want to work on their phone or in the browser, you can go to a service like upwork.com and put out a request for bids from contract...

• Freelancing as a Civil Engineer!

  Hello, I'm in need of some extra money for the holidays, and looking to find freelance work. I'm a PE licensed in NC & SC. I haven't had much luck with upwork.com. I've submitted proposals to the few jobs posted in NC/SC but haven't had a proposal accepted. Source: 7 months ago

  Https://wishy.gift - A privacy friendly wishlist service, made for my SO after she got 4 thermoses for Christmas a year and only needed 1. Costs ~$30/mo, but is used by my entire extended family, which makes it all worth it :). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: What are your “scratch own itch” projects?

  My SO got 4 thermoses for Christmas one year, so I decided to build a simple wishlist service[0] to prevent it happening again. Launched it 6 years ago, and since then it's been used by friends, family and myself for all Christmas and birthdays - so I consider it a huge success.

• Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?

  I created a privacy-friendly wishlist service (https://wishy.gift/) for my SO, and as long as she and my family uses it, it's a success for me. Going from ~1k to ~5k users during 2021 was a lot of fun, but it's the close circle that really counts :). - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Alexa leaks your private wishlists

  I run a simple, free and privacy-friendly wishlist service[0] that's been around for a couple of years now, and I don't even keep your e-mail address[1]. It's been exciting to see the user count go from ~500 to ~2500 the last year. Any feedback and feature requests are much appreciated :) [0] https://wishy.gift/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
