Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (March 2013) - <AUTHOR> Please lead with either SEEKING WORK or SEEKING FREELANCER, your location and whether remote work is a possibility. <comment><USER18> SEEKING WORK - London or remote.

I specialize in algorithmic problems. Here are some things I've been working on lately:

Scalable recommendations engine - <https://github.com/jamii/springer- recommendations>

Concise pattern matching and parsing - <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4902219>

Parallelizing a constraint solver - [http://scattered- thoughts.net/blog/2012/12/19/search-trees-a...](http://scattered- thoughts.net/blog/2012/12/19/search-trees-and-core-dot-logic/)

I have a strong background in math (real analysis, probability, discrete maths) and computer science (randomized algorithms, AI / epistemic logic, machine learning). I'm comfortable with clojure, python, erlang and ocaml but I will learn whatever is the right tool for the job.

I would consider full-time work for the right problem/team. I'm also interested in partnering with other freelance developers to cover the whole stack.

For more information contact firstname.lastname@example.com

</comment><comment><USER20> SEEKING FREELANCER, UK, remote welcomed.

I'm Tech Director at FARM Digital. We're a digital agency based in the UK, but the right person can work remotely from anywhere. We're looking for a PHP freelancer who is confident using Symfony. The work is mainly maintenance work on some fairly high profile e-commerce sites (> £1mil turnover/year), so it isn't glamorous, but we're a fun team to work with, and the work is based on a retainer, so it's generally recurring. I estimate there is 3-4 days day a month here for the right person.

I can be contacted on firstname.lastname@example.com, or @jon_atkinson. It would be good to see some examples of past work, or Github/Bitbucket links.

</comment><comment><USER21> SEEKING FREELANCER - in cities (Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto)

We are experiencing a surge of businesses in the form of project work the cities above (most needs to be local) in the following stacks: Node (SF), Drupal (NY, Seattle), Backbone.js and Ember.js (SF and NY), Rails (Chicago, NY), LAMP (Toronto), iOS (LA and SF)and Android (LA and SF). I know is a handful - but we vet and scrutinize every opportunity to make sure it does not suck and there is real money behind it. To take a closer look at the scope and size of each project ping me at manny at grouptalent dot com.

HappyFunCorp (<http://happyfuncorp.com>) - We're trying to find 5-10 good developers, and we're also interested in designers and project managers.

We do web and app development for a panoply of clients ranging from Fortune 500 to brand-new startups: right now the distribution is roughly 50-50. Most frequently Android/iOS apps with a Rails-on-Heroku back end, but there's a fair amount of other variety too (PHP/Drupal, HTML5, etc etc etc.)

We're loosely based in NYC, with another cluster of people in the Bay Area and a third in Delhi, but remote engineers are very welcome - most of us (including me) work remotely 90+% of the time. We prefer people with a reasonable amount of experience under their belt, but there are always exceptions. And we pay well.

If you're interested, email me: email@example.com

Web app dev (PHP), web design, iOS & Android app dev/design, HTML build and perhaps 8 other things.

Skillz:

* PHP (mainly Codeigniter in recent times)

* HTML / CSS (5/3 respectively if you want hotness, XHTML and RDFa also if you prefer)

* Javascript / jQuery

* Titanium or Phonegap mobile dev

* Nice SEO

* UI/UX to some extent

* Git / Mercurial

Other stuff too numerous for a tidy post, but if it applies to the web I've probably had a go at it at some point.

I've worked on everything from Wordpress blogs to big e-commerce sites (big being relative but think $1m+/month). Also have a couple of new iOS/Android apps coming out shortly. I can see through an entire project from start to finish if required and have a lot of knowledge built up over time on what converts.

My site - in need of an update but here it is:

<http://pitbot.net>

I'm UK based. Discounts available if you'd prefer to fly me out to somewhere nice (hmm!)

</comment><comment><USER25> SEEKING FREELANCE - <USER17>

Seeking an engineer to help us build an ipad application that needs to take data from a medical device serial port & send it to a RESTful API (can be rails, python, or php). Also need someone to work on the Ipad app. If you can do both backend development & ipad development, great. If you're interested in just one portion of the project, that works as well.

Our team consists of 2 leading SF bay area physicians & myself, an engineer/designer. Could turn into consistant work or a FT position for those interested in contract-to-hire work as well.

      - 5 years Ruby on Rails (full stack).
      - 13 years of engineering.
      - 4 years user growth.

      Looking for long-term or short-term consulting work.

      Specialize in Rails (full stack) and user growth
      (marketing/advertising). I'm a hybrid coder and marketer
      with a proven track record. I love working on-site and
      work just as well remotely.

      I'm a friendly guy with an aggressive attitude and good
      communication skills.

      I'm looking for projects solving real problems. My belief
      is that the product should reach customers ASAP and
      that's what ultimately matters. Testing code is good, but
      not the end-all be-all. Iterate on what works and make it
      better.

      Have built new, and worked on existing Rails applications
      including (but not limited to):

      - A permission based advertising platform.

      - An e-comm up-sell marketing platform.

      - A social media platform.

      - Most recently one of the largest e-commerce flash sales
        sites.

      Contact me below...

      Cheers!

\- I'm a full stack web developer who can take care of your web presence end- to-end, including hosting and system administration, as well as building out your designs.

What I can do for you:

\- VPS Setup & Configuration, whether for a web server or otherwise.

\- General SysAdmin work.

\- PHP / MySQL back-end development (have been using Rails at my day job for 6 months or so, but I'm sure your money would be better used with another Rails developer).

\- HTML5 Front-End, with excellent knowledge of best practices, and how to best deal with browser inconsistencies.

\- Javascript: Been developing with jQuery since version 1.3, and greatly enjoy using Backbone.js as well. Of course, I can do the same tasks with "raw" Javascript, it'll just take longer.

\- Responsive Design: I'm excellent at converting existing templates into a responsive design to allow for mobile compatibility.

\- CSS: Whether it be debugging some wonky IE6 issue, or creating a solid Compass pipeline for you, I'm here to help.

\- CMS: I've developed several in-house content management systems, as well as doing a large amount of work in Wordpress and (ugh) Joomla.

My major projects: <http://wireless.walmart.com>, <http://wirefly.com>, <http://www.rcn.com>

Feel free to reach out to me at email@example.com

Looking for experienced front end javascript developer in NYC to help continue to develop an large Instant Messaging application. Code base is currently backbone with a Rails back end and some other custom components. Application is deployed and in use by 10's of thousands of customers.

No remote work, sorry. Prefer a generalist with good all around experience including back end Rails work if possible. Contract is minimum of several months full time and pay is excellent.

<comment><USER28> Would like to learn more about your opportunity. Can you please contact me at juan[at]grouptalent.com ?

</comment></comment><comment><USER29> SEEKING WORK - Amsterdam, London, Remote.

I am a sysadmin who loves to efficiently solve business problems. With a DevOps background, twelve years of sysadmin experience, and a passion for problem-solving, I am keen to help HNers achieve their goals. My main areas of expertise are:

        Scaling high traffic websites

        Designing highly-reliable applications

        Migrating to AWS (e.g. from Heroku, if you want more control over your request routing and costs)

        Server maintenance and optimisation

        Reducing the cost of existing AWS resources

I am building a business around the idea of a 'sysadmin as a service' for those people who need regular sysadmin work, yet do not have enough projects to justify hiring a full-time sysadmin. Would you like a friendly expert to work on ad hoc projects and also be available for emergency support?

If you'd like to discuss any of these services in more detail, I'd love to hear from you - firstname.lastname@example.com

I'm a full-stack web developer who just started a small dev agency in Los Angeles.

We're ultra-focused on web development and specialize in providing technical capabilities to agencies who don't have internal tech teams, or providing capacity to dev teams who don't have enough internal resources.

Our delegation is completely abstracted - all communications go through me and all deployment goes through our standard, simple processes.

We're currently available for a 20-hour or 40-hour per week retainer, starting in middle March.

My github: <http://github.com/kvnn> My linked-in: <http://www.linkedin.com/pub/kevin-riggen/28/447/602/> My email: kriggen//gmail

Our stack is currently: * HTML / CSS / JS / jQuery * Python / Django * PHP / Wordpress / Drupal

Cheers!

We do all of the usual PHP work with all of the usual frameworks/CMSes (Symfony, CodeIgniter, Cake, Concrete5, Wordpress, etc) but we much prefer working in Python/Node.js when the project allows. Personally, I'm particularly interested in client-side Javascript (or Coffeescript) applications (eg. using Backbone), especially projects with real-time and/or data visualization needs.

Full stack developer: Node, PHP, Ruby/Rails, SQL and MongoDB Mobile: iOS

I'm a super-generalist. I've done everything from developing for obscure ERP systems, to social networking sites, to mobile devices. Recently I've been pulled into the Node.js world where I've been designing data services and web services with Express and Restify on top of MongoDB.

</comment><comment><USER39> SEEKING FORTUNE, GLORY & ADVENTURE: Bespoke software for you made in NYC

These are two little projects I have done recently:

* <http://streamjoy.tv/>

* <http://willholloway.net/makertime.html>

* <http://officespaceinct.com>

My work history:

1994: Spend year dabbling in Visual Basic, get introduced to core programming concepts. Got obsessed with The Hobbit/Lord of The Rings and put coding aside.

2008: Took a college hiatus, 4 credits shy of graduation. They still let me walk, and I have a photo of me in a cap and gown and ostensibly receiving a diploma, which turned out to be a cheap placeholder containing an ominous threat to whomever failed to settle their tuition balance. Decided to put finishing college aside as way of burning my boats: entrepreneurial victory or destitution.

2008-2009: Sold fireworks, started and ran a global Facebook ads arbitrage operation. I've run many positive ROI ad campaigns with my own funds.

2010-2011: Facebook market changed. Switched to building products. Shipped and sold two Drupal based products.

Mid-2011-Present: Started reading Hacker News articles and comment threads obsessively, with a lot of googling to discover the meanings of terms like turing complete.

2012: Paid python consultant - built two products for client that are patent pending and am forbidden to show.

Year to date: Freelance gigs and afterwork keep rolling in.

The Future:

Flask/Python/Mongo/Elasticsearch/flat file architecture are my speciality. I am obsessed with automation and tools like fabric. When you are bootstrapping your own products you learn how to be extremely lean.

I work excellently remotely but will go anywhere the NYC subway system will take me. I make it a point to be highly available for communication.

To Other Freelancers:

I would love to ally with other freelancers to create a syndicate that would complement each others skills and/or bequeath job overflow to one another.

I have been shipping software for more than 10 years now, and love building high-quality products (or at least try my best for it!). I started freelancing a few months ago after my stint as a single founder. One of my first clients was a HN member for whom I did remote contract work for almost a couple of months.

I am proficient with Ruby on Rails and generally quite adept at picking up new technologies as per the needs of the product. I call myself a generalist, and if you are a non-technical person, I can handle most of the things for you that go in to building & launching a software product (including screen flows, server-side programming, system administration, analytics & a little bit of digital marketing.)

To give an example of me trying out new things, the consulting assignment I just finished was related to conversion optimization(s) and driving growth for a startup in the education domain. I am up for any work that is challenging & stimulating.

Please see my profile for the contact & other relevant information. Just drop a line to say hello, it's always good to interact with fellow HN members!

I am a software engineer and technology consultant who focuses on building Android apps. Within the last 2 years, I have built six Android apps and two SDKs. I am deeply passionate about mobile development and creating top-notch experiences.

What can I do for you? Here are some examples:

* iOS to Android Ports. You have an iOS app that you would like to port to Android. I can take the existing iOS experience, make it conform to Android standards and deliver a polished high-quality app.

* Web Apps. You have a mobile site that you want to convert to an app. I can take the web content and create an app using an existing solution like PhoneGap or a custom web wrapper. We can go one step further and create a hybrid app that combine the best of the web and native worlds to fully leverage all the capabilities of the mobile device.

* App Rescue and Optimization. You have an Android app that isn't quite performing. Perhaps it crashes, it's slow or has other problems. I can take a look, diagnose the issues and fix them.

* SDKs. You have some awesome functionality that you'd like developers to use in their apps. I can put together an SDK or library that lets developers easily do that.

* Strategy. Need advice on how to best approach Android development? Perhaps you are wondering what features your app should have to be successful? Or you have concerns about how to best approach testing on the myriad of Android devices? I can put together a plan that addresses issues like these and many more.

Show HN: Hide Feed – Get things done without distractions - <AUTHOR> https://hidefeed.com/ <comment><AUTHOR> Hi HN!

For the last several months, I've been working on a Chrome/Firefox extension that hides distractions on sites like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Amazon, LinkedIn, Instagram, Reddit, and Gmail.

Today's websites are designed to suck us in and keep us engaged by providing a never-ending stream of content. The longer we stay, the more ads we'll see, the more products we'll buy, and the more we'll boost their revenue and engagement metrics. Companies might claim to put their users first, but their business models provide powerful incentivizes to get people hooked.

If you care about spending your time well, you might try avoiding these sites entirely. But that's often difficult in practice because these sites offer genuinely useful services. YouTube is designed to make us spend hours falling down their recommendations rabbit hole, but it's also the best place to learn how to change a tire. How can we benefit from products while avoiding the distractions?

The solution I developed mirrors how I learned to handle my weak spot for sweets. When faced with goodies like donuts or a box of Oreos, I have the fun tendency to devour them nonstop until I feel sick and pretty much regret all my life decisions. I originally thought the answer was more self-control — that I should be able to sit in a room surrounded by sweets and maintain the willpower to ignore them all. But no matter how many times I tried that strategy, I'd often succumb to temptation and go right back to binging.

Over the years, I found a solution that actually worked: I simply stopped buying sweets and bringing them home. My problem completely disappeared once there were no sweets to eat. Changing my environment turned out to be much easier and more effective than developing a superhuman level of willpower — the key wasn't learning to resist temptations, but removing them entirely.

That's the core idea behind Hide Feed: It hides temptations on websites so that you can get things done without distractions. That means being able to respond to messages on Twitter without getting sucked into the feed. Or find a particular email in Gmail without being sidetracked by all the unread ones. Or ordering items on Amazon without seeing advertisements for things you don't need.

I designed Hide Feed with your privacy as a top priority. Here's what that means:

\- Hide Feed requests access only to the sites you select, not all sites.

\- Hide Feed contains zero tracking or analytics code.

\- Hide Feed makes money by offering a premium tier, not by selling your data.

\- Your browsing history stays in your browser and is never transmitted.

Hide Feed is part of a suite of tools I'm developing to help people spend their time well, and I'd love to hear your feedback! Thanks so much.

Super.js - lightweight JavaScript RIA framework - <AUTHOR> https://github.com/maccman/super.js

<comment><USER2> Not impressive at all; it's Ruby roots are obvious and it screws up virtually every place where performance matters in JavaScript and the DOM. Definitely an 0.1 attempt. You're better off with SproutCore or Cappuccino. Also, it's not even lightweight!

JavaScript in not Ruby. Good code in Ruby != good code in JavaScript. The author would be far better off contributing to existing JavaScript frameworks than trying to make JavaScript work like Ruby.

<comment><AUTHOR> Care to elaborate, or are you just making baseless accusations? Is it just classes you object to?

John Conway – The Free Will Lectures (2009) [video] - <AUTHOR> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmx2tpcdKZY <comment> dan-robertson I've heard rumours of a course of five or six lectures Conway did many years ago (before he went to Princeton). The goal is to prove Gödel's incompleteness theorem but somehow using geometry in some way. I think you need to allow comparing two lines and knowing which is longer (and this foundational thing is hard or maybe impossible) in some sense. I don't know what is left of eg Gödel numbering or the formal languages stuff because I've only heard vague descriptions of this.

I believe the contents of this course were lost to time but I'd like to be surprised.

<comment><USER2> It isn't what you're looking for, but perhaps Lawvere's generalization of Gödel's work is sufficiently geometric for you [0][1][2].

</comment></comment><comment><USER3> I'm very much surprised to hear philosophical gems in this talk. If you like these thoughts, you'll like some of Alan Watts' lectures, too.

<comment><USER4> Exactly what I was thinking. This kind of attitude can make people that are less connected to the topics John Conway is talking about, feels much more into it.

</comment></comment><comment><USER5> The Free Will Theorem paper is available here: [https://arxiv.org/pdf/quant- ph/0604079v1.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/quant-ph/0604079v1.pdf). Most of it seems quite readable.

</comment><comment><USER6> My understanding is that it says if anyone anywhere has free will, then so do some elementary particles. It doesn't say anything about if anyone or if any elementary particles actually have free will right? Does it lend support either way to if free will exists?

<comment><USER5> He notes in the first lecture that he thinks it is impossible to disprove determinism. A determined determinist can always resort to the argument: all of your senses are deceiving you and you are simply experiencing some predetermined script of qualia (he uses the analogy of watching a movie a second time).

<comment><USER7> This is also the conclusion of Kant, free will is impossible to prove or disprove as it's a question of the noumenon.

<comment><USER5> Right: if you are a brain-in-a-vat observing some powerful play, what can you say about the world in which the vat is embedded? (or for that matter, how is it that you can even be made aware of the vat's existence?)

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER8> Post-corona observation: You can hear a lot of coughing from students in the audience. I wonder if I would have made a mental note of this pre-corona.

<comment><USER9> How we all wish we were actually post-corona.

</comment></comment><comment><USER10> The HN crowd from my impression wants to deeply think of themselves as being in control of how their life transpired. I'm an outlier and I think free will is an illusion. Not only do I think everything is fated beyond our control but I have the belief that society would function better if people were educated young about understanding the concept of determinism and why we don't have control over how life transpires. Fundamentally we're living in a judgement & punishment system of society because religion adopted the stance of people being in control instead of what we describe as evil being a product of God. I think a society that replaces judgement & punishment with rehabilitation would be fundamentally just. I'm curious if society will evolve or stay unchanging but I think it likely won't be in my lifetime.

<comment><USER11> _" society would function better if people were educated young about understanding the concept of determinism and why we don't have control"_

My life got better after I rid myself from those thoughts. I firmly believe, they are dangerous.

<comment><USER12> > _I firmly believe, they are dangerous._

What is your reasoning?

<comment><USER13> A single example: the US justice system is based on retribution. People are condemned to prisons and sometimes death as a result of ultimately how they are wired and the circumstances they were in- there was no 'choice' made regarding whether or not to steal or kill, they were always going to do that, they never had any real 'control' over their actions. If anything criminality in any form should be considered a mental illness, but instead we gladly put people in tortuous conditions because we have wantonly decided that they are guilty, bad/evil, people.

<comment><USER14> This focuses on the "retribution/punishment" aspect of the penal system, but it's also important to remember that "deterrence" and "reform" are also important. Even if you feel people don't deserve to be punished for their crimes due to the crimes' inevitability, it's still important for repercussions to exist to create a society where it is less likely for people to commit those crimes (for fear of punishment), and where people who do commit crimes undergo a process that makes them less likely to do so in the future. (There are better ways than prison to reform people, of course, but not as many to deter people from committing crimes in the first place)

<comment><USER10> That just sounds like a one sided convenience for people fated to not be hurt by the system that doesn't harm them. Deterrence can be from not having to go through the rehabilitation system.</comment></comment></comment></comment></comment></comment>

How economic growth has become anti-life - <AUTHOR> http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/nov/01/how-economic-growth-has-become-anti-life <comment><USER2> This is clearly the most pressing issue of our era, as it lies behind so many other evils.

To say nothing of the oppressed in 'developing' countries, growth and the state-enforced debt money systems have the majority of the educated world running around in blinkered slavery. Yes, that includes otherwise intelligent young people working fiendishly at startups, trying to get rich quick: from the article, _the rich might be rich in monetary terms – but they too are poor in the wider context of what being human means_.

How can we chart a solution? People can use non-state currencies which aim toward collective value generation and liquidity at labour rather than systematized usury and incentives for hoarding capital. People can protest, develop alternatives to and utilize settlement systems that sidestep the state sanctioned monopoly of the conventional banking system. People can educate one another and their children to see value in resource preservation and environmental and social concern. States can begin to integrate these values in to governance, for instance using tax reduction as incentives.

Just some ideas to get people thinking.
