Re:Remembering Bob Lee on Thursday April 06, 2023 @04:33AM (#35465798)
Bob was part of my on-site eng interview at Square in 2011. While I didn't get the job (either visa or didn't clear the bar), he deeply inspired me to build and eventually move to SF. If that's an effect he had from spending 45 min with him, can't imagine what it's like for people closer to him :( Amazing human and incredibly talented humble builder. RIP
Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2023) on Monday April 03, 2023 @10:54PM (#35434401)
Puma Browser | Remote | Engineering (iOS, Android) & Growth | $75-150k base + generous equity | join.puma.gg

Hi all, I’m Yuriy, founder of Puma Browser. I've previously worked in developer relations at Cloudant (YC S08), Meteor (YC S11), Parse (YC S11), and explored AI/ML (computer vision for self-driving cars) before diving deep into crypto. I view crypto as primarily a developer platform and an experiment in building an open financial system, which unfortunately comes with politics, hype, and price rollercoasters.

We started with the idea of a privacy-first browser with built-in micropayments (via the Interledger Protocol) and have since added support for identity (HNS, ENS; Unstoppable Domains in testing) and storage (IPFS; Arweave in testing). Our next steps include wallets for main chains and experiments with GPT/LLMs and gaming.

We recently surpassed 500k downloads and are excited to grow our team. Our backers include Protocol Labs, Hard Yaka, Shima Capital, Fenbushi, Don Ho (Orange DAO, Quantstamp), Sridhar Ramaswamy (Neeva, Greylock), Jason Warner (ex-GitHub CTO, VP Eng Heroku & Canonical), Illia Polosukhin (NEAR Protocol) and many more.

Our Values:

• We value Optimism, Curiosity, Kindness, and Grit.

• We’re remote-first.

• Only one recurring weekly meeting to maximize state of flow.

• We’re careful with growth and never had to do layoffs.

Open Roles:

- iOS Engineer - Android Engineer - Head of Memes & Growth

How to Apply:

Visit join.puma.gg or email your application to [email protected].

We also appreciate your thoughts on which crypto or GPT features we should build next. Cheers!

Congrats! Here's an algorithm to predict next Voyage hires: 1. Look at who was in the videos for Self-Driving Car nanodegree 2. They will eventually hire them :) 3. ... 4. Profit
Would be great to have it post to slack if something reaches X points

Oh wow, thanks for some nostalgia! I grew up in Ukraine and played with this :). It wasn't exactly the most reliable thing (like lego bricks are, for example), but definitely fun memories!
Here's a video of Andy Lash (author) presenting the app at the recent Meteor Devshop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smnSkyRF-JY&list=UU3fBiJrFFM...

Looks like he made a lot of progress since then!

If you google the article title and go from there you can bypass the paywall for now.

Re:Android is better on Monday August 12, 2013 @01:12PM (#6200340)
Great review! I've been playing with the new Nexus 7 for last two weeks and it's the best tablet I've used so far. Android is killing it.

Looking forward to Moto X becoming available at Play store.

Re:Chrome's insane password security strategy on Thursday August 08, 2013 @06:41PM (#6182484)
Seems like a great strategy to promote Chrome OS's multiple accounts feature and get people to sign-in with their own accounts.

Re:Redactor - javascript (jQuery) WYSIWYG editor on Monday May 28, 2012 @08:32PM (#4035483)
I think this code is much easier accessed when hosted on GitHub so I'll maintain the repo for now: https://github.com/dybskiy/redactor-js
