Talking with dozen recruiters and interviewers and going through hundreds of technical interviews in past 6 months, I noticed there are few patterns where engineers make mistakes when attending technical interviews. I wrote a guide on how engineers can prepare for the technical interview. I'd love to hear any feedback what has been working for you guys and share any tips you might have.

Can't register. Postgres is throwing an error and your server is returning a 500


Sorry for noticing this that late. That's weird. Will check what's happening.

just use www.carrd.co You will get your lander up within half day with all content. Easy to update, easy to learn. Saved a lot of hours and days for me so far. Nothing comes close for me.


I was about to recommend Carrd as well. Also Unbounce.com seems like an obvious choice.

These paid tools help focusing on the content and getting things done.


Let's be honest. Even solely from money and evaluation point, being accepted to YC increases your evaluation for your startup significantly. I'm not advocating that this is why you need to apply, but FOMO on YC companies is real among VC's. On demo day same companies who are pre-seed or just started get new rounds on $15Mil+ evaluation. From what I have heard and seen the biggest value is advice, but getting so much hype to raise big money is not bad for founders.


I've heard from a VC recently that YC is usually associated with teams of very young entrepreneurs and some VCs avoid this team profile. Not sure if this is a widespread stereotype.

I can say that Tandem is the one which strikes me the most. I had a privilege to test the product in early beta and you can see the benefit of such solution. Basically Discord for work which I believe will be adopted soon by many companies.


>Basically Discord for work

This was very confusing for me since I use Discord only for chat for various open source projects.

Tandem is voice and video chat - the part of Discord I never use.



I have worked remote last 5 years and there is no tool that has truly solved Information asymmetry that remote workers meet every day. How usually organizations solve this is overcommunication and keeping memos from everything but that is a huge time sink and there are always those bad apples that don't keep memos.


This is exactly what's happening. More meetings + synchronous chat/calling apps won't solve this either.


yeah, there needs to be something more radical. I think at the moment fully remote teams work better than semi-remote because fully remote teams most communication happens through slack and emails so there is almost always a paper trail.


My experience reflects yours.

Once you have a SINGLE full-time remote employee your team should operate as a fully-remote team. That means online meetings, online communications, documentation, etc.


What you hope to have in your opinion to solve the problem?


I have toyed tough about some kind text-to-speech bot that would automatically keep searchable memos from every meeting. But I am not sure is the current text-to-speech models there yet.


You can listen to founder's vision and idea about the product on the podcast I run.

It's also big part of networking, with something like that you can apply to different programs, different mentorships that all brings you closer to human capital and money. That's part of the privilege being an american too, you're much closer and easily accessable to all of it.


They did a Launch HN here, if anyone's curious :https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20585810


Interestingly, I think there is a market for this. Maybe not as big as Product Hunt, but has a market for all potential builders to build something new.
