It's web service that allows you to channel your google docs through a more human-friendly name. So, you link

opendocs.to/your-name/resume (an example link)

to your public resume at docs.google.com/dlkjbalksdfd

It's a simple redirect service, but it just looks nicer, and I think the opendocs.to sounds natural. Got to learn a lot with this one, using Vite/React, Node, Postgres all in Docker, with a local profile that builds nginx inside with the containers, or a prod profile on the server where nginx proxies into the containers.

Anyways, check it out!

Right now, only free tier available as I some last tweaking and checking.

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies: A bit of everything, lately beginning Docker, Terraform, AWS

Github: https://github.com/aaron5m

Started working career as engineer almost 20 years ago, then went off to explore. Always kept up technical interests: Mathematics, Physics, Programming, Embedded Software. But unfortunately not super deep. Glad to start at the very beginning and work hard to learn and come up to speed. Can sort of go anywhere, can sort of accept any salary - just eager to build stuff well, instead of being a dilettante.

Email: me@paaronmitchell.com

Remote: Yes, willing to travel throughout China for onsite visits

Willing to relocate: no

Technologies: PHP, Javascript, MySQL, HTML, React

Resume: https://www.linkedin.com/in/p-aaron-mitchell-bb23b3253/

I'm a STEM teacher with a B.S. in Chem Engineering and several websites and apps online. Looking for more challenging, technical work; willing to learn your tools.

APP: One suggestions was React. So, I bought an Apple Developer Account and programmed an iPhone/iPad crash-course for AP PHYSICS (I'm a STEM teacher) in React Native.

LEARNED: I work a day-job and love the beach, so I focused on basics: React, Expo, and getting an app to work. But once it was ready...

COOL KIDS: On Hacker News they like to build stuff. Me too. But selling stuff... I need to practice that, so, I've tried to write a call to action below.

If you know someone prepping for the AP Physics exam in May, recommend to them the 99to5 Physics app for iPhone/iPad. https://99to5.com

ITERATE: My colleague and I are taking my original app and refactoring to something briefer, tighter, with better audio/video and more language support. Suggestions are welcome!

CONCLUSION: Anyways, thanks to HN for being a great community. If you know somebody taking the AP Exams in May, wish them luck! My grades were horrible in high-school. But I took the AP Exams and did surprisingly well, and I think they got me into university.

Short: How would you teach a High-school Grade 11 Computer Science course?

More info: I'm a STEM teacher at a Canadian high-school in China. Our program is for Chinese students whose parents want a western complement to the Chinese system. In effect, students may be wildly talented or wildly unready - I have students with a 5 in AP Calculus and students without a gist of functions. I must wear many hats at this school. My new hat is Computer Science teacher, which falls to me because I write a little code (e.g. my React Native iOS app 99to5.com for learning physics, self-promo apologies). How can I make this class most edifying for the most students?

Thanks for any advice! And I wish you joy and good-fortune in 2024!

Fuhpy uses PoseNet, p5.js, and ml5.js to find the keypoints of a person's body in a photograph. If the user allows access to a camera, Fuhpy then compares the user's body's keypoints - the user attempts to "match" the pose in the photo. When the keypoints are close enough, the "match" is completed.

Fuhpy is not perfectly executed - it's a buggy, hacky, prototype. But I'd be grateful for your feedback. (And if you strike a cool pose that you want to share, I'll include it in my final project's video summary!)

Thanks!

For example, what if someone figured out the average sit-time of gasoline in the jerrycan, the average fault rate and leak rate of the lesser seam, and the average production time and lifespan of the jerrycan - then decided the sometimes leakier version was better because it was lighter, more quickly manufactured, etc?

And then perhaps American soldiers were more likely to pilfer gasoline for joy-rides or bartering, or to steal and sell the jerrycans themselves to their liberated friends and lovers, or for some other reason these cans were more likely to be "lost" as the Wikipedia article vaguely mentions - thus, make the can useless without the spanner and funnel, so as to make it a little less tempting for an improper owner to run off with?

Maybe?

Just thinking out loud.

But these questions reminded me just how fascinating everyday objects can be.

This is really good! Thank you =)

When I email jointheteam@stileeducation.com, my gmail times out.

Do you know why that might be? My gmail sends to other addresses.

(ps. Sorry if I've emailed like five times, haha - at least on my end it's timing out.)

Congratulations on your success!

> My company is having a hell of a time finding junior level people who actually know how to solve even the simplest of coding challenges.

If there's any small thing I could try to do for your company - something not too integral nor time-sensitive - I'd be happy to take a shot at it just for the experience. But I don't want to waste your time.

Anyways, thank you again, and best of luck to you!

However, last night I opened up that leetcode stuff - and I got lost in it! Just like some of my old physics problems, they're so interesting to puzzle out. And, granted, interest isn't enough, but it's still a nice indicator. I just had fun, just fun, going over one of those algo problems last night.

Thank you again for giving me so much of your time!

What's that old quote? "Half the work is showing up" or something like that. You just did what they asked and - boom - got the job. Well done! I'm tucking that one away under "life insights".

Thank you for taking the time to answer that question.

> Yeah! It's fun using my brain to make a living, and most importantly, I work a lot less than I had to before, for a lot more money.

Congratulations, again!

Did you put together the github site for "AI from scratch"? I can't find an "About" page - whoever's work it is, I love it.

Thank you again for pointing me in this direction.
