Not official, but our team just made a seamless transition to chatting in Keybase.

The trend is still just searches. Do their historical search numbers closely represent actual figures for people coming and going?

BackerKit | ONSITE | San Francisco, CA | Senior Software Engineer | Full-time

BackerKit is the market-leading platform for post-crowdfunding experiences for both creators and backers.

We’re looking for someone who gravitates towards leveling up team members through pair-programming, continuously improving, and open discussion about decisions and process.

Our stack: Ruby on Rails (Rails 5.1, Ruby 2.5), Backbone, Postgres, Redis.

More about the role here:

https://jobs.lever.co/backerkit/488b7d87-8ead-4ac4-91cb-59a3...

Our Interview process:

Phone call or coffee, on-site conversations, on-site coding. We have a strict no whiteboards interviewing policy. You’ll likely spend half of the time pairing (actually pairing) on a coding challenge and half of the time pairing on a story from our backlog.

Contact: [email protected] (Head of Engineering, hiring manager)

We're still learning, but so far we've had overwhelmingly positive feedback from folks that feel encouraged by our pledges. We're also working to raise more funds so we can increase the amount of each pledge. It's in the article, but 100% of the funds we raise on Patreon will go towards that goal.

Probably nothing to do with decision makers being aggressively lobbied by major car-makers that would prefer to make the easier-to-sell hybrids than full-blown electric cars.

Oh man, can't wait until this takes off so we can clear out all the data centers and use that space for something else.

This is pretty awesome, but could definitely use persistent data so we can just share the map. Could also use off-client/background processing - might be working on this piece soon...

These are pretty awesome but they've also been around for a while... I think Cirrus has had them on every plane they've made since the early 2000's.
