We're building out a new engineering team at an established startup in Ed-Tech. TeachersPayTeachers is the world's first and biggest online open marketplace where teachers buy, sell, and share original educational materials. Our community of over 3 million active teachers connects and shares knowledge on the site every day, and has generated over $100 million in sales of some of the best, original, most creative classroom resources.
Where you come in: although the company has a lot of users and strong reputation, only now are we building out our NYC engineering team to build out TpT's future. This a green field opportunity to set the engineering culture and how we organize ourselves going forward while maintaining an app at high traffic and still growing!

Amplify is re-imagining the way teachers teach and students learn. We enable teachers to manage whole classrooms and, at the same time, empower them to offer more personalized instruction, so that students become more active, engaged learners.
We build our products with Angular, Node, and Java (Android). Contact me directly at [email protected] if you'd like to hear more.
At what point does Google Glass become an accessibility device? At some point, people with a hearing impairment will be able to read subtitles on Glass. Then it will be practically impossible to ban.

That's a great idea! I'm trying to think what the best approach for picking the items from the list would be. Maybe start with things in the same category - ex: movies vs books. Alternatively, it could try a bunch of combinations and only report the best based on some sort of "diversity of results" score.
Each year I've had a secret I use to find gifts for people: go to Amazon, find two things I know my gift recipient likes, then compare the "similar items" section to find matches. It's kind of tedious to do, but it works like a charm. This year, I made a GiftMating to do the same things with less effort.
Tech behind the scenes: Rails, Zurb Foundation, Amazon Product Advertising API
PS: really loving Foundation as an alternative to Bootstrap - you get a responsive layout that you can use by specifying the grid in css instead of in html.
When I see job post titles like these, sometimes I find myself trying to give the company the benefit of the doubt and assume that they're just bragging about themselves instead of asking developers to evaluate themselves ("awesome developer" => "awesome job for a developer").
It's fine to brag, but they can do so much better than a single dimensional word like awesome. All companies think they're awesome. I'd love it if they took the time to express the subtleties of WHY they think they're awesome.
p.s. Thanks for the comment. I read a lot of your writing and appreciate the perspective.
One thing I've been wondering a lot about is anti-warning signs - things that turn technical cofounders off that aren't necessarily bad things.
The first thing that comes to mind is arrogance. It certainly puts me off, but it seems like you need a good dose of arrogance to think you can solve a daunting problem.
