Command E | Lead Engineer (#1) | San Francisco, CA | Onsite/Remote | Full Time

We're building a next-generation search tool, and we're hiring employee #1—a lead engineer who wants to get in at the ground floor (pre-seed/seed stage). Both co-founders are engineers who worked at First Round Capital, Eventbrite, and Digg. We worked together at a top VC firm for 3 years and have a healthy mix of engineering skills + business sense. We’re looking for a unique engineer who is persistent, exploratory, multi-disciplinary, and demonstrates leadership.

Command E helps provides effortless, lightning-fast navigation of your chaotic workspace. Command E lets you instantly search your cloud data (i.e. Google Drive, Salesforce, Trello/Asana, Dropbox/Box, wikis, and more). We’re bringing the “fuzzy finder” file-switching experience of vi/Emacs/IDEs to business people. Our unique technology searches across many cloud providers and displays results as you type, in less than 10ms.

Our stack is Electron/React/Redux/SQLite. We’re using ES6, async/await, Promises, and all the cool new JavaScript stuff, but the search index is backed by rock-solid native SQLite/C++. From a technical perspective there's tons of fun space to explore—high-performance full-text search indexing, fast async UIs, modern dev frameworks, encryption, or deploying cross-platform desktop apps.

We're at 3rd & Market in San Francisco and have legendary VC/angel investors. We met each other 4 years ago through a "Who's Hiring?” thread, so we're excited to see who responds to this one!

There isn't much publicly available about us yet, but email benstandefer at gmail dot com and I'll share all the details.

After this poor person getting downvoted six levels deep while asking reasonable questions, finally a comment that answers the question. I was wondering the same thing as u/bufferoverflow: sure, polygraphs don't work, but I've never heard of microexpressions being pseudoscience before. Everyone acts as if it's a given that whatever possible lie detector you come up with, it has to be snakeoil.

Customs agents are supposed to do that. How else do you think smuggling gets stopped? It's pretty much universal that your belongings can be searched (then there are some countries expand that to searching digital data, but that's a bit of a perversion).
don't waste your breath. they aren't listening. get over your emotional attachment and move on with a clean break.

also, exit interviews aren't for that. exit interviews are an exercise in liability control. the company doesn't care about your feedback.

Repl.it | hackers | ONSITE | SF

We're hiring hackers to improve how people learn and use programming. We believe that while dev tools have evolved and made coders more productive over the years we also lost some of the magic and fun in programming and we want to bring that back!

“Not all customers deserve a company’s best efforts,” says Peter Fader, a marketing professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School who helped popularize lifetime value scores.

I feel like this is a succinct argument against the idea to privitize everything — there’s no accountability nor notion of “fairness” baked in whatsoever.
It's pretty funny how management rarely takes complaints seriously until the exit interview, and even then they probably won't end up doing the right thing.

If I'm asked for "fix-it" advice in an exit interview, you can be sure I'll request a nominal fee for data they'd otherwise have to pay a research firm to get.
I did that once, and it worked, but I was greeted by an agent angrily saying "Sir, please calm down!"

It was weird. I wonder if the same system was triggered by people yelling at the phone tree.

Flickr ditches Yahoo requirement and 1TB free storage, makes Pro unlimited
I once had an interview with the partner of a major consultancy who did turnaround kind of work. I had been in your kind of situation, and at the end of the interview I asked him how this kind of situation was handled.

Without missing a beat, he said "you have to completely replace the senior management" - which I thought at the time seemed a bit extreme - but some number of years and experience later, I fear I now have to completely agree with.

Management is making the decisions that lead to these situations, they know it, and for whatever reason - probably money they can´t or won´t fix it. There´s nothing you can tell them that will change that.
Sleep through the first 3 days. Chew on ice cubes for the first couple of weeks. After that clear.

The real problem isn't the "addiction" (which is so mild as to be laughable); its the sudden influx of time you have, and the fact that smoking, favors a sedentary lifestyle (typically associated with high stress jobs).

Typical spreads are; 1-3 days discomfort, 7-day relapse, 14-21 day relapse, 6 week relapse. after that, unless you hang out with smokers...

I use another method. I select all the options in the automated system that indicate that I want to buy stuff from them. Suddenly I get connected to a live person almost immediately ;)
The local companies have to abide by the same rules as the foreign companies.
Anecdata:

The more advanced systems monitor for customer irritation while the customer is "on hold". It is quite possible to skip the line by fitting the profile of a really irate customer. While saying "agent" would put one into a standard queue, saying "<f-word> agent" does magic on some Verizon, ATT, Comcast and Optimum CS or billing numbers.
You should say what you mean. Your statement can be widened to "Protest is terrorism" and if that's what you really think then you are prioritizing business over human rights. I fundamentally disagree with this logic because if you or I were in a situation we were wronged we would expect others to look out for our rights. Democracy works because people cooperate, and part of cooperation is protest.
You should even work there! At least according to this song https://3pod.bandcamp.com/track/triangle-of-happiness

I wasn't actually being sarcastic. I'd actually love to live above a grocery store.
Exit interviews are not for the company to learn and grow from your feedback. It's for them to remind you of your NDA obligations and that they own everything you worked on. That kind of thing.

So they are not stupid, they are just not for what you think they are for.

I was kind of hoping these would be lessons learned from looking over 50 solutions to fizzbuzz from 50 different programmers. That might have been amusing. Instead it's just sombody's random programming exercises.
It absolutely depends on the layout of the building and the sort of grocery store at hand. Proper building codes and zoning can prevent that same grocery store from being able to engage in certain practices that would negatively impact the health and security of those living in the building above.

Should there be an industrial kitchen in the grocery store, zoning and building codes are used to insure that should there be a fire, it won't impact those living above, even though it absolutely increases the cost of construction (and sets minimums on what the cost of housing is).
No, it's just a unit. It's the output of your speakers to the amount of sugar I consume in a year if we want it to be.
Microsoft’s Twitch competitor Mixer doubles down on audience participation
Yeah, that worked so well for for the bells. 8 is now, what 3? And while there was some network effect for telecom, it was nowhere near the same degree as with social networks. No open API's means you're never going to see splits have any desirable effect, as the consumers will simply flock to 1 or 2 platforms.

Have you looked into automatically generating "travel tracks" for each chapter in a Tale from OwnTracks data?[1] An integration like that would definitely make Premium more appealing, and be more interesting than a map with a "pin" on it.

Do you have any plans to add an export ("take out") option that will allow you to download the images, text, captions, etc. as JSON? I worry about investing the time to create some beautiful "tales" but not having a good way to archive them in case you are acquired / shutdown / decide to call it quits.

No source control means either no collaboration, frequent merge crises, or hyper-micro-services architecture. Either way it means siloed work and frequent re-work. And no history to help you get on board.

If there's no agile and no meetings .. are people just doing their own thing?
Your response implies that you do not believe that the original CoC was published in good faith.

It seems to me that there are two broad mindsets that could lead to this (though I am abundantly aware of my own failings of creative thinking, so please let me know if I am neglecting a viewpoint).

1. That it is not, in fact, possible to post a CoC in good faith that is derived from religious texts.

2. That there is evidence in this specific instance that the population of contributors to SQLite, or some subset of these individuals, was, in fact, choosing to adopt the prior CoC out of malice or mockery or other mal-intent.

So, is it impossible or did the contributors act in a way (outside of the text of the CoC) to indicate that they were in fact mocking other CoCs?

"There are only two colors in the world: black and white." --Ansel Adams
Are you implying that government, local or national, is "accountable" or "fair" somehow? All of human experience demonstrates the opposite.
Compiling and running your team's code could be the most powerful excercise to stay connected with the engineering part. Way too often I would discover that some functionality declared as 'done' cannot be demonstrated in any way, and such discoveries initiate discussions leading to meaningful decisions.
By the same token, employees are allowed to advocate for change once they are working there.
My old company which was a horrible place to work run by evil corrupt rich scumbags. The glassdoor reviews were poor and justified. The owners daughter started dating someone high up at Glassdoor and bragged to us in a meeting how she got him to take down the good reviews. Overnight all the bad reviews disappeared. They also started forcing HR to write 3 fake positive reviews for every new bad review that came up. So you could try that.

I've since left that place and am a lot happier now, but every once in a while I check on them and am disappointed to see they still failed yet and their Glassdoor suppression war still carries on. The biggest tell for a fake HR-created review is they write, "Keep doing what you are doing!" in the advice to management section. No actual employee will ever really write that... even the happiest employee probably still has an opinion about advice to management.
Why would fairness factor into a business transaction? And I'm not sure why you're making this a public v. private thing, that's not really relevant to the article at all.
