Of all the places; really? You went with the "rockstar" moniker for hires?

- mrkurt 16y agoI'm sure they're so giddy about being able to hire that they didn't think much about it.
- mrspeaker 16y agoI think that was just a bit of link bait for HN: notice that they didn't use that term in the actual post. Though maybe I'm attributing to malice... ;)
- jedberg 16y agoI can be slightly malicing sometimes. ;) (Did I just make up a new word?)
- larrik 16y ago"Malicious" would have sufficed. ;)
- jedberg 16y agoCode reuse is fine for coding, but in language, reinventing the wheel is the way to go! (Sorry, I'm a bit punchy at the end of this week).
- jshen 16y agoWe're hiring ninja programmers at my awesome startup. If interested you must show your skills with a test. Turn malice into an adjective. ;)
- randall 16y agoI feel like there's gotta be a hint of irony in the title.
- jedberg 16y agoIndeed I did. I admit, it was a little underhanded way to get you to click. But it worked, right? We're just trying to get the very best people we can. Apologies for the ruse.
- elxrr 16y agoI clicked because I read "Reddit is hiring."
- scottw 16y agoMaybe "rockstar" is the new codeword for "confident junior".
