   Essential Professional Network — Valuable but Sometimes Noisy

   I use LinkedIn almost every day for career networking, following industry news, and job hunting, and overall it’s been very useful. It’s the go-to place to connect with colleagues, recruiters, and professionals in your field — and I’ve gotten valuable opportunities just from profile visibility and posts.

   The job search tools are solid, with alerts and recommended roles based on your profile. It’s also handy for building your personal brand by sharing content or engaging with discussions in your industry.

   That said, LinkedIn’s feed can sometimes feel noisy with overly promotional posts, irrelevant updates, or recruiters spamming every connection. And while the Premium subscription adds features like InMail and deeper insights, it feels pricey if you’re only occasionally job hunting.

   Overall, LinkedIn is a powerful professional platform that delivers real value, but it’s not perfect

   🏁 Competitors: indeed

   👍 Pros:    Excellent networking and career-building platform.

   👎 Cons:    Feeds can get cluttered with irrelevant posts or spam.

• It's Been a Hard Year

  > Landing projects for Set Studio has been extremely difficult, especially as we won’t work on product marketing for AI stuff, from a moral standpoint, but the vast majority of enquiries have been for exactly that I started TextQuery[1] with same moralistic standing.

• Microsoft dumps AI into Notepad as 'Copilot all the things' mania takes hold

  It should a case study how every tech company eventually ruin the experience of their platforms, and how Apple never does. You can fault Apple for not innovating enough, but what they never do is 'shoving', which is endemic to companies like Microsoft. I had to use Windows to test my app's Windows build [1], it's crazy how many random things are there, with no obvious way to remove them. There's donkey right in... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Show HN: Convert Large CSV/XLSX to JSON or XML in Browser

  I don't get it. Are JSON and XML files more friendly to import vs CSV files? I always assumed CSVs were the standard. Any reasons to prefer structured formats? Shameless plug: I am working on a similar problem of Excel not being a great tool for large datasets. My desktop app[1] lets you import raw data files and query them using SQL.

• Ask HN: What are you working on? (April 2025)

  I've been working on https://textquery.app -- query raw data from your desktop. I love exploring data, but it always felt clunky to juggle multiple tools, write scripts, or run commands just to import and query a dataset. TextQuery is the tool I built to solve that mess. You can import CSV, JSON, and XLSX files and start querying them instantly using SQL. Want to create a chart? Just hop over to the Visualize tab.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
