This is so spot on.
Does this violate any of the social media terms? I wonder if they will just ban this at some point.

I wrote my first quick blog piece on the questions I think have worked best for me when checking references.

I would love any feedback HN has.

Trying to understand how in the same short form piece we get: > "I still bristle at the word “career”. Not for me."

And then end it with:

> "The skills and connections I developed at Mapbox set me up for a smooth and satisfying career transition."

So do you have a career or not?

YCharts | Full Stack Developer, Senior Software Engineer | New York,NY (NYC) | ONSITE | Permanent, http://www.ycharts.com/

YCharts is a VC-funded tech startup that offers the fastest and most efficient way to explore and analyze financial data. We are building an ever-expanding financial and economic data set - as well as the tools to access and interpret that data - to help investors and business people make better decisions, save time and earn more from their investments.

We're looking for talented engineers to help build the world's most modern, web-based equity research platform. Our ideal candidate has a well-rounded background, with experience building both front-end interactive features and back-end systems. Our service is currently built on Python/Django/Celery, Angular.js, MySQL, Redis, Node.js, Amazon AWS amongst other technologies. An engineer at YCharts has the opportunity to work on all parts of the stack; it wouldn't be uncommon to write Python for our api in the morning and YAML for Ansible for our AWS deployment in the afternoon!

Yea you are right to some extent, but then what is the difference between seamless pickup or calling and ordering(human interaction, scary i know) and PayDragon? Seamless has a great mobile app too. I think they are entering a red sea.
This is funny since one of General Assembly's first blog post was about how this concept of skipping lines wasn't a viable lean start-up idea. Take a look. http://generalassemb.ly/blog/a-case-study-on-getting-started...
