Re:New jobs board for VC-backed companies (incl YC) on Tuesday January 04, 2022 @04:13PM (#29800614)
My friend’s company just launched a new aggregation website called Venturesome that lists 100,000 jobs at 3000 companies, all backed by VC or private equity. Includes about 4600 jobs at YC companies. Thought this might be of interest.

Re:The SaaS Org Chart on Sunday July 25, 2021 @04:58PM (#27952856)
Why do the number of front end devs exceed the back end? Does anyone else see a problem here? Front end effort has always been a fraction of back end effort on the systems I've developed. If that's not the case, I can only hypothesize it's because front end toolchains have gotten overly complex for what they accomplish. Not only that, but I would posit that for most SaaS ventures, the back end is where the differentiation and value is delivered, so that is where the bulk of dev resources should be deployed.

Thank you. If one trains an AI on a corpus of mediocrity, one should expect a mediocre result.
