At what point do "Justin.tv is hiring" articles become spam? I've seen at least 3 or 4 of these.

never... at least there aren't Adsense banners on the side here.

erm, this is Hacker News and personally I believe this is a good place to announce this

I don't mind it being announced, it is just that it has already been announced. Repeatedly.

Python? Why?

Also, I thought most of Justin.tv was built on rails?

The post says they have a lot of things built with this framework: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/

It's both.

All of our web stuff is done with rails, flash (as3) and javascript.

Everything else (video servers, chat servers, the search engine, and many other smaller things) is done in python - mainly because of the twisted library.
