Part of the core responsibilities is mentoring juniors I would love to learn from people's experiences as much as I can about what works and what to avoid.

Any point of view is welcome, from the junior perspective or the senior perspective, even more grateful if you can give me anecdotes about other senior responsibilities (taking ownership).

I haven't been able to have or find any mentors to guide me on this process, my career has been quite bootstrapped so far, so any advice you can give is beyond welcome.

thanks a lot!","time":1776169243,"title":"Ask HN: Stepping into a new role as a Senior, mentoring dos and dont's?","type":"story"}],[47606363,{"by":"pbs29","dead":true,"id":47606363,"kids":[47606865,47606546],"score":1,"time":1775076522,"type":"story"}],[47342780,{"by":"ribbitapp","descendants":3,"id":47342780,"kids":[47342781,47343017],"score":2,"time":1773266727,"title":"Need UI advice for a retro site I created","type":"story","url":"https://ribbitchat.com"}],[47337607,{"by":"vkuprin","descendants":76,"id":47337607,"kids":[47340608,47339326,47346941,47346146,47340172,47349069,47339279,47349204,47342795,47342734,47347237,47344500,47350597,47347846,47341026,47339711,47346267,47341688,47341906,47340685,47341443,47340469,47349050,47349953,47339554,47348494,47339191,47339109,47340243,47342371,47340970,47342316,47343985,47348247,47344568,47394925,47344800,47349476,47342332],"score":320,"text":"$17","time":1773246066,"title":"Show HN: I built a tool that watches webpages and exposes changes as RSS","type":"story","url":"https://sitespy.app"}],[47236689,{"by":"Jimmc414","descendants":3,"id":47236689,"kids":[47237411,47237107],"score":6,"text":"Looking for sources that prioritize factual reporting over narrative, ideally with genuine international coverage.

So I built an\niOS app that converts EPUB files into audiobooks using text-to-speech.

Two voice options:\n- Free on-device voices (processed locally, no server needed)\n- Natural cloud voices (one-time purchase per book, no subscription)

Cloud conversion runs chunk by chunk. You can start listening other chapters generate in the background. Once done, the audiobook lives on your device.

No account required. No subscription. You import your own EPUBs and either use device TTS for free or pay per book for the cloud voices.

They are often bloated with trackers, heavy ads, and confusing navigation, especially on mobile.

So I built Milano2026.live.

The goal was simple:

Speed: Near-instant loading for checking results on the go.

No Bloat: No ads, no unnecessary JS.

Better UX: A clean schedule that doesn't feel like reading a spreadsheet (just fixed the formatting based on early feedback!).

It's built using Next.js 15 and deployed on Vercel. I'm using ISR to keep the medal counts fresh while keeping the server load minimal.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the performance or if there's any specific data you'd like to see added during the games!","time":1770984461,"title":"Show HN: A lightweight, ad-free medal tracker for Milano Cortina 2026","type":"story","url":"https://www.milano2026.live/"}]]
