Nice article and PostHog is one of my favourite startups to look for especially on the culture side. Your careers page and compensation calculator is a breath of fresh air.

Yeah, these interviews can be a knowledge base. You could have links to past interviews by category for people to read through. But do give people an option if they want their interviews publicly listed or not. Great for practice and clarity of thought.

Edit: Just read my own chat again. I did the "interview" quite hurriedly. I can't believe how far we have come with these tools. I think a lay person who is not aware of this technology would not be able to discern that the interviewer is not a human and that's saying something.

Thank you for your suggestions. I will definitely give this a try. Any recommendations for niche network. I keep getting mails from linkbux folks but I have no idea if they are legit or not.

Thank you, I appreciate your reply. I didn’t expect it to be this much either. Even at the lower end of that range, that’s like USD 500 which goes a long way and will definitely help.

I’d really like to know how much money can be realistically made. I have a niche price comparison website getting around 300k page views monthly. Would it make sense to bother with Adsense at this point since other attempts at revenue have not worked out.

I have read this story before on HN and every time it brings a smile to my face and idk why.

Can you share some insight into the hiring process?

Making simple games (board or pc) for my kids and playing games with them. Knowing that your parents think of you as a good person. Being helpful to others above and beyond. Those are mine that gives me an immense sense of content.

OP, you should charge users a small amount ($24-50 a year), after a trial period. Keep it simple, free of ads and keep the timeline algorithm free.

I’m sure there are many who would love something like this and be willing to pay enough to cover costs and maybe generate a full time income for you. Good luck!!

Nice set of learning’s and very pertinent for me as a solo bootstrapper.

What does HN think of web scraping for the purpose of price comparison?

I’m asking this because I run a small side project to show prices across retailers for a very small niche. The users are very very happy. Even the vendors started contacting to be listed on the comparison.

But I am unable to make a business out of it other than few affiliate commission.

Agreed completely. I meant in the sense of having this 100k once you retire and to continue to work on this high paying job for a few more years assuming you do a proper asset allocation.
