seamless latex integration is a winner for me!! will definitely spread the words for this


Awesome, thank you! If you or your colleagues have other LaTeX-related goals or wishes, do let me know. There's a lot of untapped opportunity there as well (IMHO).


Tiny context window is killing it.


Would you share the salary range?


It would also be interesting to know the reverse question: anyone ever got a job from who's hiring thread?


Did you spend as much on product development too?


Haha tough crowd. (Yes)


Hi when you say 'San Carlos, CA / Remote', does it mean we have to be in San Carlos, CA but able to work remotely? Do you accept applicants from outside the US?


Very interesting roles! Do you have any remote from UK opening?


Mine cryptocurrency is the obvious answer.


I initially considered this as well (still considering), but I am a bit reluctant - a decent mining rig can be quite expensive - and I keep hearing or stumbling myself upon both pros and cons.

Some of the cons: - Bitcoin mining is now feasible only? using ASIC miners. They cost a lost and I can't find a reliable source to buy them (i.e warranty for hardware breaking down, etc.). - Bitcoin prices are very volatile, so if they go down (even for a limited period - e.g. up to a few years) I would be stuck with (temporarily) unprofitable equipment. - Ethereum (for example) is minable using GPU-s (less risky investment from my point of view) but I hear in the near future it will transition to proof of stake and not be minable anymore (correct me if i'm wrong)


For more info you can check on whattomine.com to see if any alts may be profitable to mine with GPUs.


Once you're done building a working system to do the above, you'd have basically built a blockchain.


Using a very loose definition of blockchain, sure. For anything post-Satoshi, no.

The extra governance layer that makes it a blockchain is also not trivial.


Could you share what are these bio hacker spaces, for example?
