We'll be posting previews and screenshots as we continue to develop; there are a lot of great minds and we're happy to get feedback as we go along. In the end, we're doing testing, but we've given the actual testing methodology a lot of tho

We decided to focus on the employer side of things at launch, for several reasons: * We have to start somewhere * Easier to ship a tightly-focused product, easier to build a message around it. * Not sure where the revenue is on the candidat

As one of the founders, I readily admit that this product is not for every hiring situation. That's fine! We stil think that there's a large use-case/market here. There are many startups, and many more that aren't "social". There are lots o

While it's nice to see native Git apps taking off like this, I don't think this app is mature enough for daily use yet. Having to leave the app for a diff is too much of an interruption. I like that the author is paying attention to little

Um, no. If you are certified as combat-capable, and you are placed with a combat unit, you must go. If you refuse, you go to army jail. Army jail time does not count as service time, so when you get out of army jail, you still have a term o

Don't get me wrong. I have no personal beef with you :) Specific statements which I am refuting: "but the profiling is mostly behavioural" - behavioral profiling is secondary to the racial stuff. At the end of the day, a screener here is mo

BS. Rebuttal follows. The screeners have no problem distinguishing Israeli Arabs and Sephardic Jews. 30 seconds of conversation -- if not simpler cues such as clothing -- will resolve any ambiguity. Israeli Arabs might not always be hassl

Another way of looking at things: implementing the Israeli security approach in US airports is like trying to switch a large enterprise (say, IBM-large) from classical waterfall software development to agile methodologies. It's an almost im

There's a lot of sound advice in the thread (TL;DR: many red flags, get out now!) I'd like to add my experience of having stayed at such a company, and getting the short end of the stick. If you end up making the wrong choice -- yes -- yo

FWIW, I'm no expert but... I don't really see much of a security benefit to "one DB per customer". The actual data will be stored on the same disks, the queries issued to through the same DB processes. This seems like a huge amount of overh

It seems like a lot of people get frustrated with Django because it isn't the Framework for Copy & Paste Coders Who Like to be Spoonfed. To some degree, this is a failure of the Django community's messaging. Django is highly modular and
