There's no way the final rendering is realtime though, right? Post production work is reduced, but not totally eliminated. But the advancements they made with that dome are amazing

To be fair, this is something they've acknowledged and committed to working on for future API iterations.

Anecdotal, but it's an incredibly satisfying development loop for anyone with a limited staff. Deploying to Vercel gets you so many convenient tools out of the box, and I haven't even left the free plan. Very helpful in a startup environment.

It's still viable for most people. Most people will be okay with the included pair of wired headphones.

What? They come with a pair of wired headphones. Why do you need Airpods?

It isn't THAT bad. Investors definitely care more about model and growth potential. But you will certainly run into those who ask "How are you integrating AI into your platform?" without any real idea about what that means.

BoardRE

https://board.live/

Our startup is fast-moving and high-energy, and we are looking for someone who can rise to the occasion, well beyond the typical 9-5. This is a job for the bold and daring person who can collaborate with fellow engineers to help us take BoardRE to the next level by building a modern and unprecedented kind of real estate and mortgage banking platform. Our team is very energized and is dedicated to pursuing an impressive long term vision. We’re a Silicon Valley funded startup that’s now established in Denver and we’re looking for engineers driven by quality, inspired by challenges, and rewarded by pioneering into industries fossilized by old paradigms.

AWS Infrastructure Engineer and Type-A Problem Solver

Your job will be to establish an AWS infrastructure from the ground up to support development and operations. Some of the primary components will be S3, AWS Lambda, Elastic Beanstalk, EC2, and RDS so it’s very important to have significant experience in most if not all of these areas. The role will also involve being a kind of general Type-A problem solver by providing some guidance to the IT staff in areas like cybersecurity and interoperability among vendor platforms. The role will involve (and evolve into) expansion of the infrastructure as our custom platform is architected, built, and deployed. We value strong engineering skills, deliberate and robust planning skills, critical assessment of methodology, as well as open-ended creativity.

Job Type: Full-time

Java / Scala Engineer Your job will be to implement, then enhance and support, a robust implementation of the architecture following a deliberate methodology. This job requires the fairly rare skill of being able to create systems that are both functional and elegant. This is not a coding position. This is a systems development position. The languages used will be Java and Scala and you will be developing back-end, complex, and near-zero-defect software. (This is not a CRUD application, does not involve JavaBeans, is not Big Data processing, and does value quality over velocity.) You will need to be a creative engineer to understand the deepest capabilities of these languages and implement a vision that breaks the fossilized paradigms of the industries we will change.

If this is a real question, this is unlikely to ever happen.

Google, walking back their commitment to software? gasp

No. In Canada, they just take you into surgery and treat you. Then you leave without a bill.

Contrast that to the US which could leave a person bankrupt for the same emergency.

This is anecdotal evidence. I have friends in Canada who are incredibly proud of their healthcare system. They see the US system as archaic.

Maybe rich Canadians think differently, but universal healthcare will always be better for the general population.
