I was really hoping this was a joke. Incidentally - http://friedisms.tumblr.com/ http://friedisms.tumblr.com/ "We don’t listen to music in the office. We listen to US Army audio transcripts from the front lines of the Vietnam War. The power of these bits of history really help us focus on fixing bugs in Basecamp."

"Relentlessly Resourceful hacker" -- Reminds me of something PG would say :)

I'd like to point out that Mark Hendrickson, CEO of Plancast, was previously a TC hacker. If you have a half-decent idea, expect the TC brand to help you get networked. Oh, and you're guaranteed to get multiple hits of positive coverage if you leave on good terms. I'm sure jkincaid will pipe in here at any moment to sell you all on this amazing opportunity.

The upside is that working for TechCrunch can get you networked into the right group of self-righteous windbags in case you want one of your ideas to get hyped up one day. The downside is that Arrington has a history of making emotional business decisions, attacking people in a public forum, and throwing his own men to the wolves to boost his self image.

We’re looking for a Relentlessly Resourceful hacker Why would someone fitting that description want to work at TC?

  Why wouldn't they?
  - richcollins 17y ago
    Because relentlessly resourceful hackers do their own thing.

Am I the only one that thought this was some parody post by Jason or DHH (when you see the 37signals.com in brackets), before realizing it was just on the jobs page?
