A free, keyless Remote Jobs API I built to stop scraping job boards (5 sources, one call)

Building something that needs to know "which jobs are out there right now" keeps hitting the same wall: every remote job board is a different scrape, a different HTML layout, a different rate limit, and a different set of dead links. So I built a single API that normalizes all of it into one call. It's live, free, and requires no API key. Remote Jobs API is a small service that aggregates remote roles from five public sources — Remotive, RemoteOK, Jobicy, WeWorkRemotely, and Hacker News (Who's Hiring) — and returns them as one clean, typed feed. No registration.

Your Database Will Leak Someday: Field-Level Encryption and Blind Indexes for PII with Python and PostgreSQL

Tuần này HN đang bàn rất nhiều về vụ rò rỉ dữ liệu ở Đan Mạch: thông tin cá nhân của 8,8 triệu người bị lộ. Đọc qua các vụ breach lớn vài năm gần đây, mình thấy kịch bản gần như lặp lại: lộ một bản backup, một bucket S3 cấu hình sai, một lỗi SQL injection, hoặc một tài khoản read-only của bên analytics bị lấy mất. Điểm chung là kẻ tấn công đọc được database ở dạng plaintext. Lúc đó TLS hay disk encryption cũng không giúp được gì. Bài này chia sẻ cách mình làm field-level encryption cho dữ liệu PII (email, số điện thoại, CCCD...) bằng Python và PostgreSQL.

From Startup to Acquisition: Lessons from Building and Selling an eCommerce Platform

In February 2014 I was twenty-two, halfway through an M.Tech, and convinced I could build a marketplace that would change how local vendors sold online. Three years later the platform was serving eighty-plus vendors, processing real money, and I signed the papers that handed it to someone else. This is the short version of that story, and the seven things it taught me. Small vendors in our region had no affordable way to sell online. Big marketplaces charged steep commissions and buried small sellers.

My job feed broke silently for 3 days. So I built a CI guardrail that fails the build when it happens again

My job feed broke silently for three days before anyone noticed. The board's API hadn't gone down — it had just started returning an empty data field where there used to be a list. My scraper kept running, my dashboard kept refreshing, and the count quietly dropped from ~340 jobs to 0. No alert, no error, no page. That's the class of failure that almost never shows up in a status page: the feed is up (HTTP 200) but wrong.
