I thought this was the delivery of an n8n template and not a hosted AI that charges per run

Ask HN: How are you using AI to find jobs? What worked (and didn't)?

Hi HN,

Longtime HN user here (since 2007)

I’m mapping practical ways HN uses AI in job searches—what truly moved the needle vs. what didn’t.

If you’re willing, please share: - Role/seniority/region (optional) - Top 1–2 AI workflows that helped, and the tools/models you used (incl. resume/cover-letter products) - Tools you used like Jobscan, Rezi Resume.io if anu - Where it helped most (research, resume tailoring, outreach) - Hiring managers/recruiters: how do AI-shaped applications read to you?

I’ll post an anonymized summary in ~2 weeks. Short anonymous Google Form will be in the first comment. Contact info is in my profile for anyone open to a deeper chat.

Ask HN: Why aren't more developers using AI tools?

dawie — Thu, 14 Aug 2025 22:00:10 +0000

I’ve worked in both corporate and startup settings and keep noticing that many talented developers I meet don’t use AI tools at all — not even for small things like boilerplate code, tests, or docs.

Why? Concerns about security or IP? Don’t trust the quality? Slows you down instead of helping? Just don’t see the value?

If you don’t use AI tools (or tried and stopped), I’d love to hear your reasons. If you do use them, what convinced you?

Tell HN: Cloudflare billing issue that is over 6 months old and no support

dawie — Fri, 11 Apr 2025 02:49:43 +0000

It appears that Cloudflare has had a known billing issue for more than 6 months now and there is no way to get in touch with support. Is anyone else having issues?

I can't update DNS and they have basically blocked my domain and there is no way to unblock it, even for other company's services on thier network...

New comment by dawie in "Ask HN: How do you exercise?"

dawie — Fri, 27 Jan 2023 05:29:20 +0000

I have 6 Kettle bells at home and I have a program designed with 4 different options by an exercise physiologist.

I also run/bike/swim and walk the dog for 30 min per day generally with a 12kg weight vest (strength and cardio at the same time). I try to so 1 triathlon a year and 1 marathon a year and I find that is good motivation to prepare for an event.

I do 75 Hard (Google it) 2-3 times a year.

New comment by dawie in "Ask HN: Staying fit whilst working from home?"

dawie — Mon, 24 Jan 2022 10:27:05 +0000

I started running at lunch time while working from home to get out the house and started doing longer and longer distances… I ended up running a marathon last year.

Another aspect is that I did 75 Hard last year, which is a life/game changer!
