Ask HN: Sales to Recruitment and Staffing Agencies
Hi HN Community,
I created a tool for recruitment and staffing agencies that automates the manual work done by them. They use their own internal database for candidate data and submit the resumes to the hiring managers over email. So I automated this process and made interview scheduling very easy. I have zero experience in sales and tried different approaches to reach out to different agencies but no luck so far. I know I am doing something wrong so that is why I seek y … ⌘ Read more

Ask HN: Lisp’s parentheses are bad but Elixir end

Why do people hate Lisp’s parentheses so much, but they don’t find this abomination a step back:

quote do
defmodule Math do
def plus_itself(y) do
y + y
end
end
end
end
end
It also happens in Ruby and several other languages. Typing “end” is three key strokes whereas “)” is just one or two, depending on your keyboard … ⌘ Read more

Hi HN, I am Garik, Co-founder of GSoftApp. I have spent the last few years developing a low-code framework for building end-to-end apps. I have always been traditional engineer, and as many of us, would not go close to low-code platforms because of their limitations. After all us engineers want to have control over what we are building. So I decided to build a fully extensible low-code framework, which means now anyone can have their own low-code platform, in your own development environment … ⌘ Read more
