Fern Creek Software | Louisville KY | 100% Remote

Fern Creek is a software consulting company. We build stuff for other people, usually in .NET on Azure but we do other stuff occasionally. The company has been around since I started consulting independently about 20 years ago. Recently I started taking on larger projects that need more people and as a result, started hiring people. Sometimes a 1099, sometimes W2.

This is not super sexy stuff where you will get options that might be worth millions, but likely worth nothing. What you will get is a load of experience on new tech (asp.net core, azure, blazor etc) and a great focus on the best feature of all...shipping.

The job is remote so you don't have to be in Louisville though if you are close that is cool.

Set your own hours and all that, I want pros not people that need babysitting.

3 openings right now... -Full stack dev (C#, asp.net core, sql server etc)

-DevOps/Automation/QA dev (unit testing, selenium, azure devops)

-Mobile dev (Xamarin, React Native)

Live the stress free life, work from home, build some cool tech, make money, be happy etc etc.

SEEKING FREELANCER - Remote US

Fern Creek Software is in need of multiple developers with various disciplines. Most of what we do is C# but that is honestly not a big requirement for us as most smart developers can pick up another language pretty easy.

We are consultants so we do work for other companies, usually SaaS companies.

Our teams are small, usually less than 7 people and we try to make sure and keep developers writing code instead of stuck in meetings.

This is a job where you will constantly be solving challenging technical problems, working with and learning from other really smart developers and using the latest tech stacks.

I need people who are self starters, can stay focused and can work independently, we are not setup for lots of overhead. We have no project managers or anything like that.

Interested?

BCI | Nasvhille, TN | Full Time | Mostly Remote

SaaS company, profitable, privately owned and a major player in the benefits management industry. We are undergoing a major transformation as we are rewriting our core tech stack and systems.

We need help. We need a serious IT Operations engineer to handle our infrastructure both in Azure and on-premise in our Nashville location as we make our migration to be fully in the public cloud.

This person will be responsible for ensuring all the systems are up and running at all times, which not only includes the applications but our office systems such as phone and internet. You will be supporting the systems that enable a multi hundred person call center and remote workforce. Given the nature of what we do, a good security focused mindset is key.

We would love someone with experience in DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, release management and other disciplines key to our future. That is a bonus, but not absolutely required.

We are not a pie in the sky startup with dreams of maybe getting lucky. We are a serious, established player with exceptional leadership and a clear plan we are executing for considerable growth over the coming years.

Interested?

My wife is Stage 3, ++- (43 yo) and half way through the taxol phase of an ACT regimen; she is progressing well but I know she has the discipline to do a fasting diet if we thought it would help. Any thoughts on starting this mid-way through the treatment?


Absolutely not a doctor, so no way qualified to give professional advice, but the article states that not everyone followed the diet during all treatments, so they included all patients who complied at least during half of the cases, and the positive results are based on this extended group. This, and the suggested mechanism of why they think the method works, would lead me to believe that it makes sense to try it.

Wish you & your wife strength and all the best.


Try it. My mom (she left us last year at only 53, unfortunately) and I did intermittent fasting (>=16 hours), and ate a super clean and mainly ovolactovegetarian diet for most of her illness. Her life expectancy was only six months, with breast cancer and methastasis; she endured six years.

Do anything you can to help her be healthy. Diet is of extreme impoortance.


I'm sorry to hear that about your wife and wish her all the best. As I'm not a medical professional and don't know your wife's exact situation, I'd say it'd be best to bring it up with your wife's oncologist that you'd like to give it a shot. I doubt they'd object for trying it for a cycle or two, but they know best.


I'm not a doctor, but after reading Tripping Over the Truth: The Metabolic Theory of Cancer [0] I'd strongly suggest she start fasting, or, far better, order yourself a copy of the book (epubs available for purchase/torrent) and read it, decide for yourself. There are a lot of resources listed in the book for people who have cancer.

I'm trying to get people to read the book. Average people, for sure, but also people on boards of research institutions. I wrote this to one of them: https://josh.works/mike-clayville-can-have-a-huge-impact-on-...

[0] https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23496164-tripping-over-t...

The ideas contained in the book are explosive, with profound implications. It's a riveting read.


Why is it that as soon as cancer comes up as a topic, people stop exchanging arguments and start selling books instead, where normally they would be paraphrasing and occasionally referencing something.


I left a longer answer to a similar question here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24260568

A book is nothing but a long, detailed, carefully-researched argument. Or, at least the book I'm recommending is that.

If there are words I can say to convince you to read the book, please tell me them.

I'm literally paying people to read the book.[0]

I would love suggestions on how to improve the average discourse on the topic. What would you suggest?

Could you read through the linked thread, tell me if there's anything there that I should bring over here?

[0]: https://josh.works/mike-clayville-can-have-a-huge-impact-on-...


Not buying from you, not helping you sell for free.

Idk what brought you on your mission, but your pitches interrupt discussions.


I have used lots of BI tools over the years, PowerBI is the class of the field and it is not even close.
