SEEKING FREELANCER | REMOTE

Looking for somebody to migrate our medium-sized project from C# windows forms .net framework 4 to Golang + Sciter.JS

You should have experience building POS systems in the past and willing to sign a standard NDA before accessing the code.

Please email at [danielrb] at live.com and include your hourly rate and a few samples of previous work.

Never used it, but saw it on a couple of tutorials, https://asciinema.org


I use it and it's awesome! It's not just a video, you can copy-paste from it if you want.

Here's another one I want to try for a long time but still haven't (to have a single, animated SVG file, still copy-pastable): https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg .


I love the ability to pause and cut/paste from the animations.


I also recommend asciinema.

A tutorial using asciinema in action.

You can't add voice into asciinema itself but a asciinema recording URL would be an excellent handout material (like powerpoint) to give to students. Your students can view Terminal action with very clear text, unlike videos where reading text can be difficult.

Even if you use other method for recording/delivering your voice/audio lecture, including Asciinema replay link would be a huge benefit to students.


I'll also plug a little tool I wrote to supplement asciinema: asciiscript [1]. Basically if you get tired of watching yourself fix typos in your recordings, you can script stuff ahead of time and then record it automatically with asciinema. Although I don't think it works with programs that take input, like a REPL unfortunately.

I need this! Thank you!


I was just about to suggest ascicinema.

I think it's excellent but it is limited to just the terminal. I don't think it's possible to incorporate a voiceover or soundtrack which you may sometimes want to do.


Similar to asciinema but you can stream in real-time https://github.com/miguelmota/streamhut


Works great. Record, stop, and it spits out a URL. You can even self-host if you want.


I've made a wrapper for it that works a bit more responsively on mobile https://github.com/enigmacurry/kick-ascii

support, support, support...


Selling support is a bit alien to me, do most companies buy support just to have someone to call in case anything breaks? Do they want their features requests or issues reports to be prioritized?

If you could share your experience about this it would be very helpful, thank you!


If your app doesn't actually need support, companies won't buy support. Nobody has ever asked for a support contract for any of my desktop apps.

It's also hard to sell extensions... I've had a couple of people email me with suggestions for paid feature requests, but nobody ever followed up when I made an offer and quoted the actual cost. Maybe I'm just not good at selling, though.

(People do offer to buy group licenses if you add a feature, but that only works for minor features you wanted to add anyway, and doesn't work if your product is free anyway...)


- Learn and grok Rust.

- Get certified on RHCSA, AWS, etc.

- Continue learning German

- Find a new job that allows me relocate to Germany / Switzerland

- Find new sources of passive income
