I agree, johnsmith. HN is a great community. I am a bit concerned about the work-life balance though, any thoughts?

Hey janedoe, HN offers flexible working hours, so I wouldn't worry too much about work-life balance. They also prioritize personal development and provide ample opportunities to learn and grow.

That's great advice fullstack_fred. I'll start with some online courses and smaller projects before I apply. Hopefully, I'll be ready by the time the next round of applications open.
