Stealth Healthcare Startup (Seed lead by Sequoia, Series A lead by Khosla Ventures) | Full-Stack Engineer | Full-time | Remote (US Timezones)
Our mission is to redefine care for the most vulnerable. The healthcare system is failing the underserved. It's a struggle to find care, to afford care, and to receive quality care. We are a company currently in stealth mode that is transforming the healthcare experience for low-income families through purpose-built, thoughtful technology.
We are a Series A startup and funded by world-class investors. We are led by a founder who grew up on Medicaid (public insurance) and personally knows the desperation of not being able to afford medically-necessary care.
Here, we believe that anything can be achieved through pure will, determination, and grit. We value builders with a similar mindset. We have grown to 8 figures in ARR in one year and are looking for more team members to keep the momentum going!
Our team is remote-first + we have an office in SF that serves as a hub for several team members.
Our stack is Python + Next.js React

I think this is a really good idea. Just imagine being able to open source rulesets and cards and being able to load them into your deck on a moments notice, and your friends being able to do the same. I hope that you make this work, I would easily pay 200$ for a deck if there were a few games to choose from and a platform to build my own rulesets and cards and load them into the physical cards.

The selective pressures of your model reward dishonesty (under promise over deliver / make estimates as high as possible to mitigate downside and reduce pressure). Why is that making your team better?

I try to cut it early to stop wasting time, especially if its a small company and you will likely be working with that person. I had to do this twice out of 5 companies I interviewed at from YC a couple years back.

It was bad faith of DHH to say that posting the pyramid was meant to compare the list of names to genocide. The good faith interpretation would make it extremely clear that the employee was comparing the list of names to the lowest rung in the pyramid AKA the farthest removed from genocide. That rung is simply called "biased attitudes" and includes a wide span of things, none of them remotely comparable to genocide and several of them could be used to accurately represent the list. Eg. "Fear of differences", "Stereotypes", "Justifying biases by seeking out like minded people"
I don't really understand how or why DHH would construe that as "you're comparing a list of company names to genocide"

This is completely constructed in your mind. If you tried this vs any woman rated 100 points higher than you or more, this would be a death sentence. It has nothing to do with gender.
Avoiding the objectively best move just means you're making inaccuracies and blunders, giving the game away for free. Nobody above 1200 rating is going to be "afraid of their position" that is not a thing. Below 1200 rating, there may be people like that due to inexperience, but it would be across both genders IF it existed at all which I'm completely unconvinced of.

a couple of nuances make the remaining 3% a bit more difficult to get, two that I noticed is that the bot is bad at holding sustain notes and also tends to make mistakes during long hammer-on sections because it hits two notes at the same time instead of realizing that they are individual notes.
the second one is probably easy to fix by spreading the notes out a bit (hyperspeed mode) but the first one is a bit more annoying to program, probably

This will change the world completely. I didn't anticipate seeing anything like this in my lifetime

If you ever want a very real anxiety attack drink half of a redline without any caffeine tolerance. If you want to die, drink an entire redline.
I tried it once in college and it blew my mind that something like that was available off the shelf.
