Had the opposite experience recently as an EM. Spent a few months trying to find a staff-level engineer. Found a great candidate who worked for a FAANG, worked to get our budget up to his expectations, sold him on the team, and he accepted our offer with a start date 6 weeks in the future so he could have time to wrap up his work. Fine, I'm just happy to have filled the role after an arduous search. A few weeks go by, and he hasn't responded to my "we're excited to have you join the team, etc" email or any HR emails about filling out his paperwork. I call and email, the recruiter calls and emails, nothing. We never hear from him again..

He's been active on social media so we know he's alive, and assume he parlayed our offer into a raise somewhere else. Ok, that happens, but to accept an offer and totally ghost? Jeez. I could have used those intervening weeks to interview more candidates had he just sent me a quick note, now I've got to backfill his position while also trying to fill the new ones that just opened... I guess hiring is a shitshow from both sides sometimes.

Looks like they hit the daily request limit on the Google Maps API (you'll see the error message if you hit Cmd-Option-J in Chrome).

I was impressed by how easy it was to integrate Clef into my existing auth system- by far the best two-factor authentication system I've used.

browser compatibility is hard :). in all seriousness though, we're working to support every browser we can. hopefully we'll have some fixes for Linux users in the next couple of days

We should mention this on the site, but the visualizer currently only works in Chrome due to some idiosyncrasies with the way other browsers handle (or don't handle) getting waveform data from audio tags. We're working on it though!

Yes, we're using Express.js. QUnit looks interesting, I think I'll start with it. Is it pretty standard to just have an HTML file that runs all your client-side tests?

This looks awesome, thanks! Definitely what I was looking for.
