Show HN: Dashboard for HN Who Is Hiring http://bit.ly/2RcRHBi

Show HN: Dashboard for HN Who Is Hiring Link: http://bit.ly/2F3t6dl Hello all, I wanted a tool to query against and save job searches and hide irrelevant ones, so I built it. Thought I'd share. Built on the awesome SvelteJS ( https://svelte.dev/ ) framework and equally awesome Sapper ( http://bit.ly/2ZZ6J1r ) deploy platform. The app pulls posts from user `whoishiring` ( http://bit.ly/1wFarHf ) on Hacker News, and provides useful tools for sorting and saving settings / filters to localStorage. Click on the “Home” link to see a list of former posts. The project is open sourced: http://bit.ly/2ZfsKrF . Pull requests and recommended improvements welcome. Side note, looking for fulltime work. If you want me to build something in SvelteJS, for example, I'm a contributor. Feel free to hit me up over here: https://arxpoetica.com/ . (Don't litter this HN post.) ## Caveats. Here be dragons, traveler, be ye warned. * This is definitely a WIP, and has its share of problems. * It uses pretty eager searching against what's essentially text-based querying, so there's a lot of problems on filter / query, such as word boundary searching, etc. So, for example, if you're a Go programmer, trying to query against that term with this setup, good luck. Likewise, “Java” will return all “JavaScript” entries, so that's also really helpful. Sorry for that. I plan on improving it, however, for this to really be useful... * For this to really be a robust query engine, the HN API job listings would actually need some improvements. It'd be nice to have actual tagged return posts, for example. I think this would require some sort of form submission instead of just plain text submission on the jobs feed, but that would be an undertaking from HN's part. June 11, 2019 at 08:26AM

Launch HN: Simmer (YC W19) – Reviews for Delivery Dishes https://ift.tt/2Y4sD67

Launch HN: Simmer (YC W19) – Reviews for Delivery Dishes Hi HackerNews community! We’re Vaibhav and Richard, founders of Simmer ( https://usesimmer.com ). Simmer aggregates dishes from DoorDash, Caviar, GrubHub, and basically every other delivery platform out there, and tells users the best dishes across the board. We do this by providing dish-level reviews. Users find highly reviewed dishes on Simmer, choose the delivery platform of their liking, and we deep link them into their chosen delivery app. We essentially lead gen to delivery. We started working on Simmer because we loved trying new restaurants, but never knew what to order. Especially, when there’s a 5 page menu. We always asked ourselves, “Why aren’t there ratings for individual dishes?” We launched our app with this restaurant-centric use case (reviews for every dish at every restaurant), but when we rolled out delivery integrations, we realized that users resonated most with the delivery angle. They found it particularly ...
