Thanks for the feedback, but haha it sounds like it worked actually: you're not the target customer and avoided wasting yours or the company's time :-) At this stage of the company, the goal of the website is to provide a validating presence for people who already heard about them, because they're selling to carefully vetted partners. The typical flow is (strong reason to engage) => homepage => "deploy on Massive" => book a time to talk. Massive never seems short of customer interest, and the challenge is more on engineering to safely and efficiency grow. I guess now is the time to plug the jobs page: https://www.joinmassive.com/jobs https://www.joinmassive.com/jobs (I'm personally leading the key searches and feedback very welcome on those listings)

> the goal of the website is to provide a validating presence for people who already heard about them, because they're selling to carefully vetted partners. You've just wasted my time, and other people people's time on this crap. Trying to claim that, after quite literally coming here on HN and trying to spruik that crowd to everyone, just makes the case for the earlier critical commenters. That's the behaviour of someone clearly full of shit. Thanks for confirming joinmassive is actually a shady operation. Hopefully this gets into search engine results, so less people waste time on this bullshit.

  (HNers are welcome to visit my profile and decide if I'm legit after 30 years, google, inktomi and numerous startups) Many startups sell and work closely with partners earlier in their lifecycle before their platforms are ready for the mainstream. OP was asking about access to lots of low cost CPUs for an application that could be a good fit, so I posted a casual one-liner. Massive is akin to SETI@Home but with a slightly more general SDK, and which complies with privacy, security and opt-in requirements from the major AV companies. I personally think it's awesome to have another way to monetize that isn't ads or subscriptions, both of which have downsides to users and don't fit every type of application. You don't have to agree, but I'd *kindly* ask to be afforded the same respect I'd give you, and which frankly I personally deserve.

    After repeatedly wasting people's time, on purpose, you deserve as much respect as you're getting. None at all.
