  1. I agree with your first statement, but a little lost on the last one—I would think of the first idea as a question of data modeling, whereas the last (bad inputs) is one of enforcement and ownership.

    Both present challenges, but better inputs don't help without a better model for business objects (as I see it)?

  2. This is essentially a no-op measure. There is already no enforcement against drinking in public anywhere in SF

  4. Ha I guess that's fair. Were you expecting a DJ set?
  5. Did he... link the wrong URL at the end of the post? I thought for sure it was going to be some sort of heartfelt speech, or motivational message, or something. But it's an instrumental DJ set which seems totally out of left field
  6. WorkOS now has AuthKit which we use happily.

    No one should use Firebase today.

    We're building the platform to automate accounting and tackle the underlying data issues which plague accounting and finance departments. Customers like Plaid, Brex, Wealthfront, AngelList, Mercury, and more depend on Numeric to automate their work, to collaborate, and to monitor, analyze, and share insights on their financial data. We've raised $10M to date from excellent investors like Founders Fund, Menlo Ventures, and more.

This will be a fit if you're excited to understand your users and the domain, as well as to have substantial responsibility and impact. We work in person in our SF & NYC offices, and prioritize speed and ownership (both technical and product ownership). We're growing rapidly, we're well-funded, and building out our team to continue investing in ambitious product goals.

    Product-oriented engineers appreciated, bonus points for startup experience and/or full-stack experience with Typescript. >=3 YOE.

  8. Generally people have a recovery option (“Forgot Password”) which routes to the same email, meaning it’s effectively already a single point of failure.

    But it’s generally a well-secured one (2fa, ip monitoring ). So in effect we’re not making it more of a single point of failure, we’re just removing the various other means of attack by removing site-specific identities (passwords)

  12. For our team, VS Code is reaching that point. The Macbooks can’t keep up with VS Code’s decay.

    Unfortunately Zed lacks good defaults (like a way to change tabs without the mouse) and certain vs code features like snippets. Makes it difficult to transition a team which has been dependent on Vscode and which has absolutely no interest in spending our days configuring tools

    Come join us to build the modern accounting & finance platform. Companies like Wealthfront, AngelList, Clearbit, and more depend on Numeric to collaborate & automate their workflows, as well as to monitor, analyze, and share insights on their financial data.

    Our mission is to solve the data issues that sit at the root of companies' problems when it comes to finance and accounting. Companies want up-to-date, accurate, useful financial data as easily and often as possible; good data enables good operations and decision-making. Today's systems unfortunately do little to help, and accountants are relegated to fairly manual data entry and error checking. We're tackling these foundational problems and we need great engineers.

    Looking for product & customer-focused engineers[1]; this will fit if you like to build quickly, contribute to product direction, and know your users.

    Bonus points for startup experience and/or full-stack experience with Typescript. 4+ YOE.
