My short bio: Hey, I am Anvar Azizov. Having 7 years of experience as an engineer and almost 5 years as CTO, I’ve spent running Lemon.io’s (http://lemon.io/) tech processes. I help build a $24M in GMV (gross merchandise volume) marketplace with 1000+ vetted developers. We’re a Ukrainian startup. I’m leading all the Lemon.io tech aspects, living and working from Ukraine. In 2022 we donated $500k to Ukrainian charity, including 182k to KOLO foundation, and I’m extremely proud of that. Besides work, I love to create and try out all kinds of things. Songwriting, chess, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu – sometimes people around me wonder if there’s anything I haven’t done yet. Having returned from my crazy 7-months trip around Asia (2017) with nothing but a laptop and guitar with me, I felt like it was a story worth telling. I will be answering your questions here Today (in 5 minutes from this post) on January 23th, 14:05 am – 18:00pm EST. Let’s talk about startups, CTO’s mindsets, leading a company during wartime and more.

Sure thing; check out this link. You just format your post to look similar to the ones on that page and then you have a ‘Show HN:’ post where you present your product to members over there - I’m sure you’ve heard of the startup incubator Ycombinator (Reddit/Coinbase, etc. Was in it); they run a forum is primarily focused on the startup/tech industry space; so there are a lot of veteran founders willing to help by critiquing, giving pointers, and some suggestions on what could be fixed.
