I'm a product engineer with 10+ years experience working at the intersection of design, engineering, and product. Comfortable owning products end-to-end. Have worked at companies like Uber and Volvo Cars, as well as smaller-startups where I wore many hats (tech and projects wise). Most comfortable in start-up environment, or mid-size companies. I have been working remotely for startups for the last 6 years. I can bring your project from 0 to 1, or contribute to an existing team.

Open to full-time, part-time or independent contractor (freelance) positions.

I'm a full-stack software engineer who enjoys building useful, well-crafted products. I have a diverse set of skills and can effectively prototype and/or develop full-fledged web apps. I also dabble in the Web3 space and can write secure smart contracts or develop dApps. I've have worked at small start-ups, as well as big companies, doing what needs to be done to deliver great results.

There is so much more to food than calories.

Do you know any good repos I could look at to see how actually practical front-end applications look like? Of course, keeping in mind it does all you'd expect a typical web app to do like CRUD, etc. I feel like I'm deep in the rabbit hole of Next.js + Apollo GraphQL but am interested to simplify whenever possible.

So what’s the secret sauce for building it less than 4 months ?

Education is long overdue for disruption, so whatever moves the needle even a little is huge in my eyes. And it's the first Lithuanian start-up that I know of to be a part of YC, congrats, this is a great win!

As I recently realized, it’s been 10 years since the first time I got paid for programming work. Decided to jot down some thoughts and share, hope there is something useful for everyone :)

I’m ashamed to say that was me at some point. On top of that, those articles did nothing to further my career. All that mattered so far is my past experience, projects and how well I can (leet)code. Now if I start blogging again, it will have to be purely out of intellectual curiosity.

Nice job, thanks for bringing it to the world! Was looking for something exactly like that a few weeks back.

It's embarrassing to write that now but I accidentally left private key for EC2 instance publicly available on GitHub. And I think what happened is that a bot scraped that key and used my resources to mine Bitcoin.

Can attest, once racked up $10k AWS bill due to a silly mistake, got it nulled. That was a great lesson about how fast things can go wrong with pay-as-you-go pricing if not monitored.

Would you consider your trades luck that won't last? Also I am curious what's your background that made you so successful in trading? I personally had 10x gains on crypto market but it was a 1 year investment, (no speculations) done with some research but I'd say I mostly just got lucky.
