Keyboard Jobs – A job board which truly understands software developers
Hi HN, When my daughter got born this year I decided to take 6 months off to be at home with my new daughter and spend the first few months together with her and my wife to be hands on in those first few crucial months. Throughout that time I always kept an eye on the job market so I could stay in the loop and better gauge what my prospects would be to go back into work later, not least because of the economic turmoil. However, I got immensely frustrated with existing job boards advertising software developer jobs. I didn't feel like they included a lot of information which engineers…
In plain words
Keyboard Jobs is a job board designed specifically for software developers. It addresses frustrations with existing boards by providing detailed information that engineers actually care about, including salary ranges and technology stack details. The platform recognizes that developers often have strong preferences about the tools and technologies they work with, making those factors prominent in job listings rather than afterthoughts.

Hi HN, When my daughter got born this year I decided to take 6 months off to be at home with my new daughter and spend the first few months together with her and my wife to be hands on in those first few crucial months. Throughout that time I always kept an eye on the job market so I could stay in the loop and better gauge what my prospects would be to go back into work later, not least because of the economic turmoil. However, I got immensely frustrated with existing job boards advertising software developer jobs. I didn't feel like they included a lot of information which engineers actually care about or even basic things like a salary range. Additionally I observed discussions on HN how increasingly more software engineers say they wouldn't want to work for a company anymore if they use technology X or Y. With that in mind I created Keyboard Jobs and launched it a few weeks ago. So far I've been mostly talking friends at former companies I've worked with or sent cold emails with 100% discounted voucher codes to get the first jobs listed. It's been moderately successful but I am ready to gather more feedback on what hackers would love to see from a job board made for them!

Hey HN, I 3d scanned the interior of the Great Pyramid / Khufu's pyramid for the Giza Project this summer and just finished the guided version to share. Would love feedback and/or problems you encounter. I used both a Leica BLK 360 and Matterport Pro 2 to do the scanning and the Matterport SDK for the web viewer. Matterport's web display with Three.js has been the most accessible to a wide audience in the past (previous iterations are in Unity and Unreal, but difficult to download over slower connections). I've been interviewing social studies teachers around the 6th grade level to…

APIs are a little like the open road—always waiting, full of opportunity, but hardly utilized. So here’s America, composed of several APIs that paint a vivid, real-time picture of a good old-fashioned road trip. Get local classifieds and photos. Tune into local radio stations. Talk wit other drivers. And more. Exploring the country by car was an invaluable experience for me during my time in the states. I’ve since moved to Barcelona, and find myself missing the territory. This is my attempt at recreating the magic.
