Funding Circle, San Francisco

We're (seriously) building a better financial world! Our marketplace approach gives small businesses a fast, simple, and fair way to get the capital they need to continue to grow. We've lent over $1B globally, recently completed a $150MM funding round, and are investing heavily in technology.

We primarily develop in Clojure and Ruby (not so much Rails). We can do TN visa and H1B transfer and are focusing on growing our on-site team at the moment.

It would great to talk to people interested in working in Clojure(Script), React, Angular.js, and Mesos for frontend, backend, data science, or infrastructure roles to help us build a collaborative, professional, and diverse team.

You can reach me at [email protected] if you're interested in learning more.

The phrase "pick your battles" come to mind here, I mean, scream with rage?

I guess it is because controls are only setup for touch input.

It could be more readable if you use a placeholder variable

  family, _ = socket.peeraddr
Which is more clear to me, but maybe not as much as just using .first

Take a look at what http://gocardless.com are doing with Direct Debit in the UK. Not sure what "mobile payment" really means, outside of in-app purchases?

I'm employed as a software engineer, but I have a mechanical engineering degree.. What should I call myself?

Could you share some of these reasons? High rent, high salaries I'm sure, but I'd be interested to know what other reasons have.

Have you seen https://www.quantopian.com/ ? Might be a good place to start.

Another nice job management tool is disown, which lets you log out of your session without killing the job (similar to starting the command with nohup)

Perhaps we've driven beyond the metaphor.
