I worked with Dmitry while he was at Myspace, he definitely is very passionate about competing with Facebook -- he was many times at odds with Myspace leadership on the issue of whether to compete with them or carve our own niche and embrac

I got my last job at a startup by emailing the startup's info@ email address the following (searched my email for the exact copy): Are you guys hiring devs for threadbox? I'm a web dev/software engineer in Palo Alto - couldn't find a jobs

Wow, some stunning work there - the attention to Photoshop details is great (check out the gradient editor in the background tab). Keep it up!

It's definitely a ploy. If they wanted to test it with just their employees, they would have put it behind their firewall.

The 100m figure and some of the facts in the article are simply not true or are already old news by this time. I will state as I have in the past - I'm an engineer at Myspace (correct capitalization now) but my opinions do not reflect that

Like has always been a problematic company. I've heard from many people that they didn't even use computer vision or any algorithms for most of their matching, and a lot of it was done by hand in other countries. I don't really know why Goo
