<p>I am not the one who posted before. But try this to maximize LinkedIn.<p>Consciously, "Like" job posts. That is, in the feed section of linkedin, "like" any type of jobs that you see others post. Linkedin will show you more job posts in your feed, which others post. You "like" that too. Then it will show more job postings. Keep liking that too from your feed. But don't like or view or read any other posts while you do this. Not even your friends/partner's posts.<p>Do this at least 3-4 times a day, with 5-10 likes in each batch.<p>In a week's time, Linkedin will flood your feed with job posts from actual users. Now you become selective and like only design/web developer posts that your skills align with. Then it will bring more of it and you might be able to find something.<p>There are two things that happens. Recruiters/hiring managers see that you liked their post, so they check your profile. Keep it updated. Your profile visits will also go up. Linkedin sees that your profile is viewed by more recruiters, and your profile will be shown above other profiles when recruiters search using their tool.<p>I hope you get a job soon, and you can thank me later!</p>

<p>Anyone with internet connection, a phone/laptop, and a few dollars to spare can create anything. Earlier it was not like this.<p>All of a sudden, your competition is anyone from anywhere in the world. Yes, to really make a million dollars, you need more than making the software. Even if you end up making a million dollars, you have 1000s of copy-cats from all parts of the world stealing your pie in no time. An average Joe will have tough time knowing which one is good and which ones to avoid.</p>

<p>This what I do. I learnt this from one of the HackerNews comments months ago.<p>Tip the person if they do a direct service to you, which may involve touching your body. Barbers, massage therapists (all kinds, you know!), Facials, nails  etc.<p>Also (as per another comment in this thread), no tip if we pay before we use the service (or food).<p>If it isn't any of the above, say "Thank you, I enjoyed your great service. But at this time, I don't have money to spare. How do I get past this screen?"</p>

<p>I had a strong feeling that I was developing tinnitus after my my usage of Apple's airpods[1] for meetings, video calls (personal and Official) and such, especially after years of Work From Home. I used to get puss from my ears, and sometimes that tweet/humming sound after a long day's use.<p>Later I switched to Bone Conduction headphones. I felt like BC Headphones has improved my condition a lot. No ear pain or puss or the humming noise. I hope it stays that way!<p>[1] - <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35023808">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35023808</a></p>

<p>Very rarely they would, I believe. There are thousand of applicants for each job posted. Why would a hiring manager go through a hackernews post unless the skills required are very niche.</p>

<p>"We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.”
-- Mahatma Gandhi<p>Also, attributed to him - "Be the change you wish to see in the world"</p>

<p>> Why do they delete a commit and push a new one every few hours?<p>May be to make it appear on the top of the "Last Updated" repositories in case someone searches for the repo or a keyword. So instead of the author's actual repo, the users endup cloning the trojan infected one.</p>

If it is secularism and religion in some countries, it is language and ethinicity in some other, and immigration and racism in America. Depends on the timing, and the need for it, politicians use it to their advantage.</p>

<p>I've been reading (and contributed less) Hacker News for more than two decades (using two accounts).<p>Back in 2005 when I started, there were very nice discussions, technical depth in comments, and it was my daily habit to read this before I start my office work. In fact, many people have started billion dollar companies from HN comments[0].<p>Now, all that is gone. Posts are too fast to follow. Too many identical posts, and too fast paced for anyone.<p>I still work in Software, but the feel of singularity is very high. Whatever is in discussion in HN is shallow, the topics are all around AI and I feel the pace is too much for me to relax and read (or read, relax, and think about it).<p>Can we get back to the state of human centric discussions rather than fast-paced AI advancement posts which has less human in it?<p>[0] - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28336815</p>
