Excited to be here. Love the idea of small communities like these. Gives me vibes of early 2000s forums on niche topics.

Anyways, I'm Juan. A SWE working in healthcare. I like Magic The Gathering, RPGs, film photography, and horror movies.

@Brandon Thanks! I'm quite interested to see how this sorta experiment goes 😄
@fourjuaneight Me too. A planned small community online with no politics… it’s got potential!
@Brandon The no politics is the most appealing part. It's become too overwhelming anywhere online. I miss just looking at and talking about interesting and random stuff online.
@fourjuaneight Totally agree. I’d much prefer to chat tech, music, movies, books and just life. Ya know, the stuff that matters. :)

@fourjuaneight Hello Juan! Good to meet you.

I have been struggling to find active people here, so I smiled when I saw you post haha.

Where are you from, if you don't mind me asking?

@yashdotso Nice to meet you too! I'm down south in the US right now. How about you?

And yeah, it's a little quiet right now. But I kind of like that about it.

@fourjuaneight That's good to know, I'm at South India, Bangalore.

Yeah, now that you mention it, yes, I agree.

What are you working at currently? Would love to know 🙈

@yashdotso Oh cool! I work in healthcare right now. Doing full stack work with Vue, Node, and GraphQL.

My boss is actually from where you're from.

@fourjuaneight Welcome! What kind of healthcare products do you work on? I used to develop software medical devices, which I always found very rewarding.

@jeroen Oh cool. Not too long ago, I worked on APIs to connect oxygen machines in hospitals.

The company I work for now is a marketplace for health insurance. From individual, all the way up to corporate. This time around, I'm doing frontend.
