Already so much value from TL;DR informing FOSSA!

Awesome work, I wouldn't be surprised if shaming these tactics stops him from filing or deters future shady characters from similar tactics.

It's why I love Slack. If I remember a conversation about something two months ago I go to the room, search and find exactly what I needed.

I'll definitely buy this when it ships in 1-2 years.

Are you fairly young? I'm 20 and using it more than ever, use it to communicate with most of my friends. Including the text functions.

All of these marketplaces exist in the US and Europe but Lyft Line is different. It's on demand, you get into a car that you just requested on your phone and it designs a route to pick up other passengers on the way, it may only be 10 minutes each. No pre-booking or planning required, the software does everything in real time.

What's wrong with this? If they're delivering coffee German's can't get otherwise, at a fair price for the connivence then it works for everyone. People complain on HN about startups with vague, long term, lofty business models but this is the opposite.

Coffee is different to socks because people that like good coffee won't buy it from anywhere.

Well done for writing about this. I think that people in SV think that this is such a simple issue, if your startup is "doing well" (or if you say things are going well) then you're fine but people are much more complicated. Also that certain feelings are something to be expected and not to be dealt with or talked about. We doubt our abilities, we worry about our external perception, how others will treat us if we fuck up.

Most of the other marketplaces people have mentioned in this thread charge 2-4X more than us. If we can connect companies with great talent it'll be worth it.

Added remote as an option

Absolutely. Honestly, I was really surprised at the number of people that signed up that aren't on the market, still work at their job & couldn't use one of our competitors. Including founders and PM's.

The V1 is definitely not the end implementation, there are a lot of challenges ahead. It's just a great way to connect people at a relatively small scale. With curation and reaching out for more information from talent.

Thanks Tim, changed hiring to companies & clarified that statement. Will try to improve this further.

Made that clearer on the homepage now, just their first year.

It's a different market & a generic term used in hiring (this is only for tech talent & curated approach), the name isn't that important though.

We want to get out of the way as much as possible. We're really involved with companies and check back in. Can check Linkedin, etc. We wait to see how the employee fits within the company.

If we connect companies with high quality hires they'll want to pay so that they can continue working with us. This will likely only scale to a certain size.

Doh. Fixed, thanks.

We quietly launched about a week ago and have already seen good quality and experience from technical talent. With 50+ engineers, designers, PM's on the platform. Some with 15 years of experience in their field or previous experience leading teams at well known companies

Co-founders of startups are signing up to find something new, PM's at tech companies are looking to join startups and engineers that think they might want to try something new are getting options.

We speak to every signup to evaluate if they're right for the platform and if we can find the right role for them. Once a company and employee are matched, they can communicate directly through their own process.
