Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (January 2024)
Location: Ireland (Galway)
Remote: yes
Willing to relocate: yes
Technologies: Go ("Golang"), Python, Ruby, JavaScript, Linux, Unix, PostgreSQL
Résumé/CV: https://www.arp242.net/cv/cv-martintournoij
Email: [email protected]
I've been using Go as my primary language for the last seven years, although I don't overly care about the specific language and have experience with a wide variety of tools and languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, C, JavaScript, Lua, and probably some more. While I've mainly focused on backend in the last few years, I also have written plenty of frontend code over the years, from the "pre-jQuery" days to VueJS.
In the last few years I mainly focused on GoatCounter (https://www.goatcounter.com) with the occasional contract job, but I'm keen to start working on something new for the longer term.
I've got quite a bit of code on my GitHub, so you can take a look at that if you want: https://github.com/arp242/

Using Analytics on My Website
I suggest using analytics that you can self-host, like https://www.goatcounter.com/ and renting a cheap vm to run it on along with your blog. It is way better, you have more control and you can be sure that javascript tracking is working for 100% of people using the site since you have full control over it not getting blocked by adblockers.

Ask HN: Is Google Analytics that useful?
I'm self-hosting GoatCounter and using it across all my websites.
Apart from controlling my data, I also have more accurate visitor statistics, as it doesn't get picked up by script blockers, unlike GA.

What has your personal website/blog done for you?
I first used basic google analytics but found it too invasive/heavy so I switched over to https://www.goatcounter.com/.
For comments, most solutions were also too heavy, paid or had ads, but I finally found https://giscus.app/.
So while I did add these 2 features, I'm happy with those variants that I managed to find.

Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
I made https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash out of the need to collaborate on org mode documents with non emacs users. Once the first release was done, I got to reflect on the infamous top comment of the Dropbox HN to make an attempt at abstracting the storage aspect of Dropbox so those org document could be made stored on a FTP server, SFTP, S3, ....

Ask HN: Experience using your user's Google Drive instead of a database?
> we need an abstraction for just this. "Bring your own storage"
I made exactly this: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash and there's an API from which you can abstract any kind of storage: S3, SFTP, FTP, GIT, WebDav, Samba, Local FS, NFS, Backblaze, Storj, Artifactory, .... There's even some funky ones like Mysql from which you have an abstraction where first level folders are databases, second level folders are tables and files are the actual rows

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash
This is what I wish Dropbox was, a simple layer that make interacting with your FTP server easy so nobody has to own your data. The end game is both to be feature complete with Dropbox and be able to change every aspect of the application through plugin so everyone can get out what they want from it.

Meta pledges Three-Year sponsorship for Python if GIL removal is accepted
> but I don't think its the companies responsibility to give back to open source just because they use it
As someone who does quite a bit of OSS, the reality is most people are asking for things but aren't willing to pay for it. Take Microsoft, I had one of their employee asking me to support their azure stuff: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/issues/180. When I found out the dude was actually employed by Microsoft, he started to talk some nonsense and ended up running away.
