Hijacking the topic - I'm co-founder of a startup called PetroFeed[1] that's building a GitHub-esque platform for the Oil & Gas industry. We've raised $3.1M, have 7 team members currently, and are moving out of closed beta by the end of the week. If you're a Rails dev interested in this area, I'd love to chat with you!

basically climate.com for oil&gas or something different?

I'm not super knowledgable about climate.com, but I can tell you what we're doing. For PetroFeed we're taking various data sets (public, commercial, and private) and connecting them into a single network. From there we're looking to provide collaboration tools on top of that network.

You nonironically use "#hardproblems" in your opening paragraph on that page.

Go clutter up the next "Who's hiring" thread.

Edit: the little robot is adorable, though.
