  4. Ask HN: What's the prototyping workflow at your company?

  13. Ask HN: How do you document complex software systems?

  16. Ask HN: What's the state of the art in home networking?

    I would like to set up a home network, ideally with PoE access points versus mesh APs. I don’t need wildly complex configuration options, though I don’t mind them. It seems like Ubiquiti was the reigning champ for a…

  25. Ask HN: Are there “regular” SWE jobs that pay $200k+?

    There’s been a lot of discussion about the bimodal distribution in entering pay (specifically at the “senior” level). Blind and Levels.fyi have plenty of data on $300k+ FAANG pay packages. There’s plenty of hiring going…
