I created https://codebunk.com. Its an Online Interviewing Tool for developers. Its the best tool out there. It provides code execution in 23 languages, collaborative editor, REPL shells, AV Text chat, Teams, Question banks and a lot more.
Its cash flow positive and has some of the coolest clients.
However, the rate at which it acquires new customers is pretty low (~3/month). I have exhausted (or nearly exhausted) avenues of generating buzz (PH, HN, Reddit, some tech publications). As a developer without any help, how do I promote CodeBunk further? What's the best way to reach my audience (Hiring Mangers, CTOs)?
Cmon. Say something constructive about the OP's work. Event 'it sucks' would be acceptable but nit-picking on title of the post is not good. Let OP know that his/her title is inappropriate or sexist, but please also help OP by answering the his/her's question
Role:
We want someone who is passionate about their work and wants to push the envelope every day. It's not just about the stuff that gets built, but the way it's done and how much fun you have while doing it.
As part of the Emerging Technologies team at Shaadi.com, you get to work on the coolest technologies and what you design and write will go into world-class Web and Mobile products that will be used by millions of users worldwide.
You will continuously evaluate existing systems and look for ways to design and implement further improvements. You will be expected to come up with solutions to problems not yet posed through technology still unknown.
If you are not impressed, ignore. If you smell something fishy about the developer, call it out (Giving benefit of doubt wherever possible. For eg, the developer could have started to code a week ago, or he wrote the translator in 1 hour flat. All admirable acievements). Just don't be evil.
Of course, expecting HNers to be intelligent enough so that the obvious utilities don't need to be spelled out will be wrong. If you don't spoon feed us, we will talk trash.
Oh cmon. Why can't programming be just fun. Why this obsession with great programmer and expert coders and the likes. Just pick a problem and hack away. Most importantly, have fun.
Every week I come across at least 10 articles telling people about what makes a great programmer. Sometimes its test code, sometimes its some concoction of agile or xp etc, other times its about functional and oop.
