Fwiw, the testimonial wasn't a tweet; Elad gave it to me directly (in Slack IIRC). And I wasn't trying to make it appear to be affiliated with Amazon/AWS, but I see now how it could be interpreted that way!

Author here; would love any feedback and especially pull requests! :D

I made Ness for me, and continue to shape it around my needs, but I'd love to see that others find it useful.

I view it as an abstraction on top of web deploys, standing up all of the boilerplate stuff you need when deploying web projects.

Also, I'm adding Next.js ISR support as I type this.

I got tired of standing up the same infrastructure for static websites repeatedly, so I made a free CLI tool for deploying sites with a single command.

It's like Amplify, but exclusively CLI driven and lacking all of the (backend) features :D. Or like Netlify but deployed to your own (AWS) infra.

I also still don't know if it works for anyone not running it on my machine, so there's that. I'd love some feedback if anyone else finds this useful!

I appreciate the clarification! To be clear, I wouldn't say we've had any issues hiring, save a few hiccups on the communication end early on (I'm aware of one other out-of-band incident similar to the OP's story; perhaps the same instance?). I'm fairly confident we've sorted out any issues with the process at this point, and we're now letting everyone know where they stand consistently and in a timely manner.

Now my messaging is off and I'm unorganized? I can't comment on the circumstances of the original complaint given that I don't know the identity of the person involved. I can say that I've spoken with hundreds of candidates across a variety of technical and non-technical roles. We've hired ~15 over the last year and hope to find more folks that are excited to build with us. I can also say that as a "technical executive" (ha!) my top priority is building a product that people love; hiring is a large part of that. I'd caution against coming to such specific conclusions based off of very little information.

Would love to chat if there's anything I can do to alleviate your infuriation: [email protected]

I'm Adam, the CTO. Sincerest apologies that this was your experience and for the communication issues. We're a small team (15 as of today), and our hiring process has certainly had some rough edges, though I think we've put the right processes in place to make sure this doesn't occur moving forward. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss further: [email protected].

I appreciate the feedback and hate thinking we wasted anyone's time. Care to elaborate?
