That's really interesting, thanks!

Seems that you're right. I'll look into it!

I think there's something fundamentally strange about the UK and the startup scene in particular where it's considered poor form to discuss salaries. Startups are unwilling to be up front about it and engineers are reluctant to d

Will do!

Good spot, thanks! That pesky 'job' won't be bothering anyone any more...

Thanks for the kind words and good observations! What we set out to try and do was to build something that didn't rely on companies posting their jobs. Free tech job boards are a dime a dozen. We wanted this to be an up to date accou

You're right - maybe it's best to turn off SoundCloud until the site can handle other cities/countries properly!

More locations coming soon! London is just an easy place to start because we live here and know some people at various startups here.

OneFineStay's site is a bit of a thorn in my side... But I'm working on it!

I've had a really positive experience working for a startup. I was the first engineer hired and it's been amazing to see a company grow from 4 founders to over 100 people. Naturally I'm biased because it all worked out sple

Sweet, I'll pop it the list. Thanks!

Hey, thanks. I've deactivated that job and I'll fix it up later. Really appreciate the heads-up!

I think you're exactly right about SMR. Haven't tried mining the HN lists yet, but that kind of seemed like cheating! All of these jobs come straight from the startups' own sites.

London based companies who are hiring in other countries are a real ballache. You think New York is tricky - Ustwo are hiring in Malmö, too ( http://zonino.co.uk/job/1132 ). And I can't even point at Malmö on a ma

Good spot. We've ended up playing a little fast and loose with the definition. Dennis made the cut because we've seen them at silicon milkroundabout ( https://www.siliconmilkroundabout.com/ ) but by that definitio

Yeah, the search can be a little bit precious sometimes if you don't pick one of the pre-defined skills. Need to work on that. For now this should do the trick: http://zonino.co.uk/search?q%5B%5D=Node.js

I built http://www.zonino.co.uk with some pals to try and scrape all the jobs available at tech startups in London. Works reasonably well and doesn't look awful. We don't scrape HN for jobs and right now we only have L

As the author of the article I was a bit wary of the title. And in retrospect not only are you exactly right but it doesn't really reflect the tone of the article or how I actually feel. A bad choice on my part that's made me look

I think there are still plenty of plain old blogs out there using wordpress. It's a great CMS but lousy at being a lightweight blogging platform.

Oh, you still use Wordpress for your blog? That's adorable.(blog.zonino.co.uk)
