<!channel> Hi folks, I have been using Freedom app to block distracting websites during my workday. Since Sep 2017 🙂 A couple of features that I like are: 1️⃣ I can setup recurring time slots and forget. If I have to take a decision of blocking distracting websites every day (or every hour), the odds are high that I am browsing endless twitter feeds 🙋‍♂️  > “Don’t make 100 decisions when 1 will do” 2️⃣ It works on all devices. Whether you use Mac, Windows, Android, iOS, or Chrome, Freedom can sync blocks across all of your devices. If you want to reclaim your time and have a healthy relationship with technology, they have a 40% off right now and you can use REMOTEINDIAN's affiliate link to help the community 👉 https://bit.ly/2B630Hr

📣 Hey <!everyone>, I published a CoC document. I believe now is a good time to define clear norms of behaviour within the tribe. RemoteIndian Guidelines and Code of Conduct Yes, it won't always work. Yes, there are gray areas where it'll be hard to apply. But it's much better than nothing at all.

📣 <!channel> A couple of housekeeping updates ➕ Create a #looking-for-work in addition to #work-opportunities, so that members can share their availability there. From here onwards, let's use #work-opportunities only for sharing leads within our network 🙏 🚫 Disable buddy-calls run by @nice-toothbrush-33259 for the time being because of a lack of participation. Here are a couple of alternatives that you might want to checkout to find interesting people on the internet. Lunchclub - This one was recommended by Sarup recently. They make curated 1:1 professional connections with people around the world. You can use Sarup’s referral link to get an invite. GrabChai - The desi version of Lunchclub which is curated by @average-judge-62891 and his friends. I have seen some glowing reviews on Twitter. Feel free to DM if there any questions/doubts.

🚨Hi <!channel>, Here’s an edited audio recording of last week’s zoom call on “How to get a remote job as a fresher" with @bitter-address-81256 and @gorgeous-pilot-31859.  Some of the things that we discussed were • The role of open source in getting a remote job  • How did they differ from their peers • Challenges of a junior dev working remotely • What was the screening and onboarding process like • What do you look for in a remote company While this conversation is of great value for folks in (or just out of college), I believe it will be a good listen for experienced devs as well. You will find timestamps to scroll to specific questions. Vipul and Tarun, Thanks for doing this 🙌 . You both are wise beyond your years and I wish you more success 🔮  🎧 Full conversation (listen time - 40 mins) 👉 https://share.descript.com/view/25c3e54f-48bb-4dea-9b5d-78acfe0d1d88
