Ask HN: What do you use as your personal CRM?
20 by strimp099 | 4 comments on Hacker News.
I am seeking a personal CRM that I can use to keep up with friends, family and business relationships. I just started using Monica (monicahq.com) which covers everything I'm looking for. The glaring deficiency is the lack of any CardDAV syncing for Google Contacts. There is an API but a) there are undocumented required fields that break POSTs and PUTs and b) I don't want to roll my own syncing. I've been mucking with Zapier which can trigger a web hook at a new Google Contact but again, the Monica API is a bit rough. What do you use as your personal CRM? If you use a few tools, what is your workflow?

I’m working on developing an eco-village / hackerspace / visionary art museum / retreat center on an Island in Panama. I’d like to have an open design process where people can submit ideas for design, materials, governance, events, etc. I was considering putting something on GitHub. What tool stack should I consider using? How would you approach it? The island is Majagual.org and we have the entire space to create.

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: Anyone Use a Standalone Flutter VM?

Ask HN: Anyone Use a Standalone Flutter VM?
3 by childintime | 0 comments on Hacker News.
An independent Flutter VM binary could run Flutter on the desktop today, without waiting for the various "desktop embedding" platforms to mature. Given that the Flutter simulator already performs (very) well on the desktop (Windows in my case), such a VM could take Dart code and run it now, and without a compilation phase. So: 1) Do you think this is a viable platform strategy to boot Flutter on the desktop? 2) Did someone get such a standalone Flutter VM working? Care to share? Note: to be useful a Flutter VM would need access to the web, the local file-system, and probably the serial ports. But any functionality like this could also be provided externally, by a customizable local webserver over, say, websockets.

Ask HN: A lot of jobs, but little reputation. How to build it up?
4 by dafrelencer | 6 comments on Hacker News.
I can't stay long enough in one job to be considered a "known quantity" that can be recalled upon to vouch for good work. To make matters worse, I usually lose/finish my current job before getting an offer for the next. 7 jobs, but I never get jobs through recommendations. It's always been some sort of blind job application, and I'm tired of the rat race. I'm a software engineer with a non-STEM degree but does the degree not matter much anymore(?). A lot of the problem would be due to the fact that I've only taken shorter-term jobs, all at very small companies. Here's an summary of my work history as a programmer: Held a total of 7 jobs over 11 calendar years. 90% web dev work. 5 of those are contractor (only 2 of which are 30-40 hrs/week), one short full-time job and one part-time job (those two were 8 and 10 years ago respectively). I might spend anywhere from 2 to 20 months unemployed in between. Out of all these jobs, I made connections from the 2nd job, and current job. But they usually don't know anyone that is hiring when I contact them, nor do they really contact me first about work. So I am at a standstill on how to build up my reputation after so much time spent not building it. I can see myself with two options: * Return to college and complete a CS degree as a BS or MS. Use the resources in college to network with people. Talk to professors, join career-oriented clubs, go to job fairs, hackathons and take internships, convert to full-time. * Harder route: Apply to larger companies for full-time roles, and interview prep. I don't know of any good reliable sources for reading your interview approach. I'm talking to local developers through a Slack channel to see if anyone has time to mock interview, but opening up time is hard. I am open to other options besides these two. Let me know what I should do to build that network effectively, and get better leads to jobs without cold applying so I don't have to be in the rat race forever.

Ask HN: Non-VC backed founders, any tips on growth?
155 by melonbar | 97 comments on Hacker News.
I am involved in two bootstrapped startups (group of buddies saved up and some work remote from my house) and it is getting to the point where we do not really need the money or investments as we have some earnings keeping us afloat. One of the apps is enterprise, has shown market fit, and has some great clients. We have been approached already with VC offers, but I am just so hesitant to let someone else in. Sometimes (read: lots and lots and lots of times) something that started as a noble pursuit ends up being corrupted by all of the cooks in the kitchen. Any guidance to those that have been similar situations? Thanks.
