I am confused. Roles say ' fully remote role open to people living in either Denver, CO or Boulder, CO'. In what sense is this 'fully remote'?

There are a lot of 'crawshaw's in the world. What email?

EDIT: can be found at the bottom of his personal website, which is linked in his HN profile. Presumably hidden because the URL is the company name and it's unannounced.

AIUI, case law has generally concluded that requesting videos is unnecessary and prejudicial, and therefore forbidden, whereas in-person hiring has a much stronger case for being useful for other reasons. If a company literally only ever hired people through in-person career fairs, that would probably get examined with scrutiny as well, but that's rare. I am nothing like a lawyer, though, and could be entirely wrong.

Piss off with that bullshit. He's right. Not to mention it's illegal under discrimination law.

Bet it's just the standard reason: people collaborate better in person and advance their skills worse over time when WFH.

Nah. That dilutes signal from more important things like detail and scumminess of the poster.

How do you intend to weigh parent's rights against children's rights?

> PredictionHealth is currently not hiring in the following states: CA, DC, MT, HI, or NY

This really ought to be included in the comment, since it excludes a large portion of potential applicants.

Your LinkedIn pages say 'No longer accepting applications.' Where should we contact you, if not there?

Glad to see you back. Signed up, and unlike when I was using TB in the early days, my resume should hopefully be the kind of thing companies are looking for.

Skill growth while working remotely slows and plateaus. There's plenty of evidence for this at this point, and I attribute most of the catastrophe in junior engineers at the big companies to it.

I'd rather work hybrid, getting working time at home is great, but I'm not foolish enough to cripple myself long-term by insisting on favoring short-term comfort.
