Out of curiosity, the author mentions a possible alliance with another companies (McDonald for example) that would share savings, breakage, and data.

Anyone would know if this kind of idea is behind or maybe related to Facebook Libra?

I’d say a safe bet is Javascript, there are plenty of online resources, good courses online and whatnots. Although it’s true that self learning is possible, I guess the _fastest_ way would be to join few coding meet-ups (there are many here in London and they are free) and learn together with other people.

They should keep a blog/github with their progress too. They basically need to prove they can “do”, having a CV saying “Javascript: 3 month online course” won’t work.

Are they prepared to move away from Barcelona or Vienna? Cities like London and Berlin are great place to look for a job in IT.

best of luck

A good job board is often a by-product of an active community. Look for Stackoverflow, Github, and even the now defunct 37Signals Jobs (rebranded in WeWorkRemotely).

If you could build a community around it, then companies will be happy to pay (and I've learnt this lesson the hard way!). Follow petercooper suggestions and best of luck!

It was a book with a good design, although it didn't help me learn much about design. The references were useful, but I would have liked to be a step-by-step guide (similar to Drawing on the right side of the brain, but for design) instead of a showcase of 'good' design and some side note tips.

How did you get a mention on TechCrunch?

Edit: I think CodingCupboard is nice idea, don't get me wrong, and in your first week you've got a mention on TechCrunch (startup dream, as you wrote).

Can you explain how it happened?

In italy you'll find a mocha pot in every house. Any expert in coffee could tell me the difference in taste if you'd use the mocha (using hot water under pressure) or the drip method?

Andy, the only reason it's because I live here. I'm happy to see marks also in Bristol, Manchester, etc etc.

Also, the frontend code is on github, feel free to grab it, modify as you wish and add another city.

It's probably a typo in the email or url field. I really need to put better validation messages. Sorry about that.

Nice and interesting idea!

Out of curiosity, are you also working on Coderwall?

Your email ( from your HN profile) matches the twitter username of a Coderwall founder.

In your privacy page, you have "Appdillo, Inc. [..] provides this Privacy Policy" and the domain http://www.appdillo.com has a coderwall email address in it.

I don't think it's wrong. You can consider it just a "theme", but why don't you make something more personal for your blog?

Even few changes would make it look different: move the left bar to the right. Get rid of the rounded buttons, change the font.

Make something unique, you just need a day to fiddle with your css and make it look yours.
