For what it's worth - I'm not sure what the criteria is (I assume we're "medium sized / not a big upsell opportunity"?) - our GCP rep quickly pushed us to switching to using a GCP reseller. They took over our billing so that we can pay via ACH, and provide both free first-line support/escalation and paid engagements for bigger projects; they don't charge a premium on top, apparently Google pays them for supporting us. Hasn't made much of a difference in how we operate, but at least we have a direct-ish line for issues when they come up.
New guidance from Anthropic indicates that SPVs and indirect sales of Anthropic stock "...that has not been approved by our Board of Directors is void and will not be recognized on our books and records". Specific private markets (Forge, Hiive, etc) are named directly.
Marker is a technology joint venture from 3 leading communications agencies. We’re an incubator building and launching force-multiplying software products for communications teams.
Our first product is Delve (https://delve.news) — a coverage monitoring, analysis, and insight toolkit to track and measure the entire online conversation about your business or industry.
Our product team is small and autonomous, but with the resources, expertise, and customer access of the global agencies we work with. We’re hiring an early engineer to join us on this journey; you’ll have a large impact on what we build, how we build it, and where we’re going next.
Our technology stack includes Deno, React, PostgreSQL, and Elasticsearch. Bonus points for expertise in any of: data visualization, distributed systems, web scraping, large-scale data pipelines.

This change happened right about August 15, 2017... which I know only because somehow I happened to notice at the right moment where the branding had been updated but the page <title> had not. Here's the bug report I filed: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1390381
For what it’s worth - we had to audit/list all licenses for OSS components & dependencies on at least 3 separate occasions during fundraising diligence processes. I would guess nobody read it too closely but GPL code would definitely have stuck out. I imagine bigger companies have this process pretty well structured.
I spent the first couple years of my life in a small town in Ireland. Small enough that the houses had names, not numbers — my parents were Tolkien fans, and ours became "Lorien".
I'm told that letters were addressed simply, "Lorien, [town name]"
> So the actual gotcha here is that there is no cohort for "feature flag B only", right?
Yep, exactly - by "that first set" I meant the 00-1A group, could have been clearer. Whatever the smallest rollout bucket is, that group is guaranteed to have every single feature.
This was quite a while ago, but I think the actual case we noticed this with was several features released to 50% of the userbase - so every single user either had all or none at once (unintentionally)
I've seen a similar mistake in a rushed "feature flagging"/phased rollout system.
User IDs were random UUIDs. Let's say we want to release a feature to ~33% of users; we take the first 2 characters of the UUID, giving us 256 possible buckets, then say that everyone in the first 1/3 of that range gets the feature. So, 00XXX...-55XXX... IDs get it, and 56-FF do not. This works fine.
However, if we then release another feature to 10% of users - everyone from 00-1A gets it, 1B-FF do not. That first set now has both features, and 56-FF have none. It turns out you can't draw meaningful conclusions when some users get every new feature and some get none at all.
I'm pretty agnostic on cold emails as a strategy, but this article doesn't mention the specific sourcing method used here which I found a bit distasteful (but common) — scraping the HN "Who's hiring" thread:
Hey Dylan!
I'm Luke Hager with Molecule.dev, and I'm emailing you because I saw your post on HN. I've been looking around for companies like CALA who might be able to make good use of Molecule.dev. I see that you're using TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL, Node and other modern web/mobile tech.
At the very least this goes against the guidance in the monthly thread ("Readers: please only email if you are personally interested in the job")
CALA is the best way to design and produce fashion products. We're building web + mobile tools that turn dreams into reality. Our customers are some of the world's most creative designers — ranging from indie brands to major celebrities.
We're still a fairly small team (~30 people, ~8 on eng/product), so you'll have a huge impact on what we build and how we build it, and be a key part of the next phase of our growth. We place a very high value on design and product quality, and we're looking for product designers and full-stack engineers (TypeScript, node.js, React, Postgres) to continue this practice.
Please check out info on our open positions at https://jobs.wrk.xyz/cala . I'm the hiring manager for our open product/engineering roles, so feel free to email me directly with any questions: [email protected]
