Multiple projects have now run through our marketplace, we have over 2,000 providers in our network, and we have a growing pipeline of more than $600M in clean energy projects under evaluation by buyers. We're now looking to scale our impact and enable anyone to easily power a building with 100% clean energy.
We have four new openings:

I feel like there are times when zero values can make things awkward (e.g. boolean flags often need to be expressed in the "negative" form because the zero value is false), but this is a great idea for iota!

Station A | Full-stack software engineers | Based in SF/Oakland, but remote-friendly (NA-preferred) | https://stationa.com
Station A is the first AI-powered clean energy marketplace that aims to make clean energy cheaper and faster to deploy, build a cleaner and more resilient grid, and create an ecosystem that brings more equitable access to clean energy. Our mission is to transition the world to 100% clean energy.
We are currently a team of five, based in the San Francisco Bay Area, and recently closed our seed round (https://blog.stationa.com/2020/seed-round-closed). Our product currently serves over 20 customers and thousands of users. We're now looking to scale our impact and grow our team by adding two new full-stack software engineers to continue development of our product that enables anyone to easily power a building with 100% clean energy.
Specifically, if you're reading this and are thinking "I don't know the first thing about the energy industry," please do not hesitate to get in touch with us anyway! One of our key strengths is in combining diverse perspectives: industry outsiders who help challenge the status quo and industry experts who bring deep knowledge and experience. In fact, I personally started out working in e-commerce, ad-tech, and other "traditional" software companies, and I've found that nothing compares to the impact you can have by working on a problem that matters to you, alongside others who share our passion and drive to transition the world to clean energy.

Just a note about Docker performance on Linux vs. others: this is likely because Docker on Linux runs without virtualization as more or less a normal subprocess in a separate cgroups namespace. Windows and macOS must use a virtualization layer (e.g. VirtualBox) to run any Docker process, which for obvious reasons is going to be much less performant.

This model looks to have a fingerprint reader, which may be good news to you. You can see the outline in the main photo, and it is also listed in the tech specs: https://store.google.com/product/pixel_4a_specs

Station A is the first AI-powered clean energy marketplace that aims to make clean energy cheaper and faster to deploy, build a cleaner and more resilient grid, and ultimately to create an ecosystem that brings more equitable access to clean energy.
We are currently a team of five (three engineers), based in San Francisco and Oakland, and recently closed our seed round (https://blog.stationa.com/2020/seed-round-closed). We're now looking to grow our engineering team by adding two new full-stack software engineers. This team will continue development of our product that enables anyone to easily power a building with 100% clean energy.
If you're reading this and are thinking to yourself "I don't know the first thing about the energy industry," please do not hesitate to get in touch with me anyway! I too started out working in e-commerce, ad-tech, and other "traditional" software companies, and I've found that nothing compares to the impact you can have by working on a problem that matters to you. In fact, one of our key strengths is in combining these complementary perspectives: industry outsiders to challenge the status quo and industry experts to provide deep knowledge and experience. This will only continue as we strive to cultivate a diverse, resilient, and impact-driven culture.

There are a decent number of branches, one of which is "fix/auth" which has commits from two months ago (but most are much older as you mention).
Not saying this necessarily means this project is alive and well, but just noting!

Completely agree with this. In my experience, LAB space really makes an observable difference in perception-based applications, as compared to the mostly arbitrary RGB cube space.

My assumption from that sentence is that both "ad malware" and "ad tracking" are injected by some ISPs somewhere between the client and the server. By forcing HTTPS, you'd prevent some amount of this by ensuring the data in transit from client-to-server-to-client is encrypted (and thus mostly tamper-proof) using the .dev domain's public cert.
