Yeah, just because I'm interviewing with you doesn't mean that I'm 100% on board with your "mission" just yet. It took me about two years with my company to really really really get behind what we do and believe that we really are the best

"1) a good GPA " I dropped out of college (with a ~3.9 GPA) and I know many people with 4.0s that can't build SHIT in front of an IDE. Your method ranks glibs over passionate people who are socially awkward.

@JasonFreedman That's great if it works for you, but personally I feel that you're just putting all the risk with the employee, which is shitty. If someone is out of a job, the last thing they want is a 3-week gig. Yeah, I get that "well i

You are 100% incorrect about C-3. I don't take sites that want you to pay for information seriously. Information and knowledge should be free. Charging for information makes you "them" instead of "us" and totally leads people to not trus

lol....because E-Mail pipes are e-mail processing is "hard". I don't see a real need for this. Twilio is useful because interfacing phones is hard. E-Mail is just plain-text and is pretty simple to parse server-side.
