Yeah, I’ve been tracking what devtools different models choose: https://preseason.ai

Good Pair Days | Lead Engineer, Fullstack | Full-Time | REMOTE (Australia +- 1h) | https://www.goodpairdays.com | AUD $150,000 to $250,000 + Stock Options

Profitable wine-subscription scale-up (tens of millions ARR) that used ML for personalised recommendations before "AI" was cool. Own and scale the whole stack (React/React Native, Python/Django, GraphQL, Postgres, AWS), ship new AI-native features, chase latency spikes, and grow the team from 1 → 5+.

You're a commercial thinker who speaks unit economics, retention levers, and gross margin as fluently as REST endpoints; resourceful, data-driven, ops-literate, and never stops tinkering with the latest models.

Comp up to A$250k + meaningful equity.

You can email me directly ("beto" at our domain name specified above and the subject line as "From Hacker News | Remote | {your country}") with (1) a tech decision you owned and its business impact, and (2) the first AI experiment you'd run at GPD.

Really cool! I should go back to my hobby project [1] and make specific software timelines referencing BetaWiki : )

https://worldintimelines.com/software-and-programming-langua...

A Hominins timeline to help put things in perspective:

Good Pair Days | Senior Software Engineer | REMOTE (AEST +- 3 hours - Australia, South Korea, Vietnam, Singapore, Japan...) | https://www.goodpairdays.com | AUD $140,000 to $190,000 + Stock Options

It's our mission at Good Pair Days to disrupt a powerful and entrenched industry and liberate the world of wine from the aloof, the exclusive, the confusing, and the pretentious. To open up the joy of wine discovery for the novices through to the aficionados, by reimagining what the wine retail experience can be for one of the oldest consumer products on earth.

To give you an idea, one of our first products is something we like to call "Spotify for Wine". We like to think of it as providing monthly wine adventures, customised to each member's unique tastes (powered by ML), delivered to their door. Where they can learn as much (or as little) about their wines each month as they like.

Our stack (not a must): Python/Django, React, React Native, GraphQL, Postgres, AWS.

Nice to have: ML Experience.

The place where your children grow up can greatly impact their future, more so than any other factor [1]. It's not an easy decision or a simple fix for many, but where my kids would grow up was a major consideration for me when I made the choice to leave my birth country.

Happiness really does start from within.

100% - and for some people to excel in connecting with themselves, they need a calmer environment - or just more simplicity.

But his sentiment reminded me right away of the book "The Quest of the Simple Life" by William James Dawson.

Some more important conditions from the method used:

Experimental sessions started approximately 1 to 2 hours after the last feeding

In most cases when mothers laid the infant down, mothers held the infant with one hand behind the neck and shoulders, and the other hand under the buttocks or thighs. The mother laid the infant on its back in 18/19 samples of the 1-month-old and older infants, and 7/7 of the neonate samples, whereas one infant was laid with a sideways landing, later to be turned on its back.

To examine the effect of sleep duration on the sleep/wake outcome, the interval between the initiations of infant sleep and laydown was calculated. The timing of the infants’ sleep onset was defined as the initiation of the behavioral sleep state, satisfying both of eye closure and no vocalization.

More recently, Bill and Melinda created a useful report on this - "Examining Inequality" [1].

The biggest take away: "Where you are born is more predictive of your future than any other factor", which has been discussed on HN too [2].

Ok, I have to confess this is the quickest sale ever. Two minutes on the website. Five minutes on comments here. Another ten minutes trying the desktop app.

I'm ready to pay.

Thank you, this is noted. Very helpful. Other users are also requesting such a filter, and it should be simple to make it happen. I appreciate the suggestions!

Creator here, thank you! That's the main issue for sure, especially when someone is flexible with the destination. Once I'm able to have most countries, I think that's going to be the strongest part of the website. But right now, most visitors are coming for the list of jobs with visa sponsorship.

I grew up in Brazil, where customer service was bad-to-terrible in 90% of the companies I had to deal with.

When I moved to Australia, I thought it would be a lot better. It wasn't much different.

When I joined a wine subscription startup in 2016 as the technical co-founder, I wasn't just building the recommendation engine. I was also helping to pack the boxes at the warehouse.

We all got fascinated with Tony's book "Delivering Happiness" [1]. As I packed boxes, I listened to the audiobook several times. Then I read it later on again.

I'm still surprised how bad customer service is in most companies. Don't talk to me like a robot. Just pretend you're messaging a co-worker in plain-friendly-English. And be genuinely interested in solving my issues knowing that you will have higher LTV in the long term if you invest the time and resources to make me happy now.

A few years later and our customers are obsessed not just about the wine we recommend. They also write love letters about how happy they are to deal with our customer service team. I'm still writing code on the other side, but it makes my day to see that part of the business working so well.

Maker here, 10 months after an initial "Show HN" with a 1.0 version.

I originally built a tiny immigration eligibility calculator and got a lot of negative feedback because of an email requirement I had before displaying the results [1].

Lesson learned. I was still able to attract a few thousand users, and after talking to a lot of them, the below are the biggest learnings which were the base for this new version, built from scratch.

1) Immigration pathways - Single source of truth for immigration options worldwide.

2) Job board dedicated to companies offering visa sponsorship.

This is something I wished existed 15 years ago when I was trying hard to find a way to get out from Brazil. I lived in a few countries and permanently settled in Australia. Before anything else, just by moving here, my life is at least 10x better than what I had back where I was born.

And I'm not alone:

In 2020, there are approximately one billion adults in the world who would like to move out from their birth country permanently [2].

As the fun part, as an old-school Django Dev, I decided to take the opportunity to experiment with full-stack javascript. I used RedwoodJS [3], which is quickly becoming my go-to stack for side-projects.

Born in Brazil, settled in Australia. Coolangatta is a suburb from Gold Coast, but it does feel like another city. Just a different vibe, feels like a smaller town, with all the perks of having everything close enough. I lived in Sydney for five years and moved here a month ago.

Coolangatta, Queensland - Australia. World famous surf spots + easy going lifestyle + affordable real estate by the beach.

I already purchase several personal care products from Thankyou [1]. I would love to see their model expanded to many other categories, perhaps an entire supermarket with only such brands.
