What am I even qualified to do?

Sun, 03/30/2025 - 1:23pm

I could use some help establishing a career direction. My most recent job was as a patent examiner at the USPTO examining in AI. Before that I launched a PERN stack webapp singlepaynews.com, before that I fixed the Seattle DOT’s permit tracking system (Python scripts that read from sql and wrote to docstore were broken by a vendor’s api update), and before that I taught for 3 years at Central Washington University.

M.S. CS; B.Eng. EE; my most significant internship was doing DO-160 electronics test—you write a script to run a function generator and oscilloscope that verifies your power conversion circuit performs and faults as advertised.

I know that the whole world is struggling with getting jobs right now, but I could use an outside perspective on my resume—I’m not sure what I could reasonably do

Show HN: A PostHog alternative with better UX and easier event tracking

Sun, 03/30/2025 - 1:07pm

Recently I've been looking for a product analytics tool for my side projects so far I've tried PostHog but had some problems, so I tried 66analytics (I am not associated with this product in any way).

I found that PostHog's UX design was too confusing, tracking events was more complicated than i expected, most data just wouldn't be tracked because of ad blockers. I feel like PostHog was only designed with large, experienced engineering teams in mind.

Have you tried 66analytics, if so what do you think of it vs PostHog?
