I've also received a ton of recruiter spam, but leave my profile on LinkedIn as other's have mentioned to see what happens. The worst part right now, is how untargetd most inbound recruiter cold-calls are - for skills that I don't have or don't want to acquire, in locations I wouldn't even consider, or at companies that I have no interest in.

We're working on this problem at Paysa [1], trying to enable employees to find and be alerted about relevant jobs that match your skillset as they become available, in your desired locations, and meeting the pay requirements that you specify.

We're also interested in helping to solve the matching and communication problem, by putting candidates directly in contact with companies that they're interested to work with - in positions that actually match their skillsets, pay their market value, and further their careers.

Check out our salary and experience based jobs search at https://www.paysa.com/jobs, and sign up to receive job alerts as we find new jobs that match your skills/experience and meet your target criteria - around location, and salary expectations.

The comments in this thread are really interesting. I'd love to hear any more feedback/thoughts about what we at Paysa could do to provide the best job matching and communication experience from the candidate side. Feel free to email at zach at paysa.com any time.

Paysa ranks Palantir #20 in terms of tech talent [1], and also supports a large fraction of their workforce coming from tier 1 schools, as well as salaries [2] that can help attract top talent, even if the work turns out to be unsatisfying.

Code is like clay. An application is a living, evolving sculpture.

yes. also disable flash, and run widgetblock in chrome.

Here is my contribution to Unix friendly JSON command line tools (requires Node.js and NPM): https://github.com/zpoley/json-command. Here are a couple other good ones: http://kmkeen.com/jshon/ https://github.com/micha/jsawk

yeah, there is a little caching going on.

thanks for your feedback joh6nn. that's a good idea.

ok, good point. sorry. i didn't think about it that way.

Interesting, I didn't know about this. Thanks for sharing. It seems to index only code? I would rather search docs than raw code most of the time I think.

I use Chrome on OS X as well and have disabled the Flash plugin, and use AdBlock and WidgetBlock Chrome extensions to make browsing faster. The only time I use Firefox is to view Flash.

Thanks Scott. I changed it in the description.

Yes! Exactly.

I'm using it in conjunction with AdBlock which takes care of most ads. Are there any particular ad services that you've noticed?
