> I think for politicians above a certain level, we should go full Rawls. When you leave office, a random citizen from your constituency is selected, your net worth is set to their current net worth, and for a period of k years after leaving office, your income is funded by the public to match the income of that constituent.

This is a novel idea to me. Are you referring to https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/rawls/? If so, could you elaborate a bit on the philosophical underpinnings of this idea? My meager googling did not raise anything substantive.

Almost all combat is N+1. The holy grail is asymmetric weaponry/tactics. Unfortunately all asymmetric weaponry/tactics is eventually countered through R&D. The critical question is whether one combatant can gain a strategic edge over another during the novelty period of the asymmetric weapon/tactic.

Ah, the joy of the Military Industrial Complex's feature treadmill.

Daybreak Health | Full-time | Remote | https://daybreak-health.breezy.hr/p/a27079cba61a-sr-backend-... | $80-140k/year & 0.5-1.5% equity

Teens need access to therapy now more than ever. Daybreak Health needs a senior rails developer now more than ever. Come join a 3-person engineering team and help us tackle a more meaningful problem than optimizing another ad network.

Daybreak Health is a digital mental health clinic built to help millions of adolescents access effective mental health care. We focus on teens in particular and our platform gives teens access to high-quality therapists.

We're a remote first company; we do not have an office and do not currently have any plans to change that. We have seven team members scattered from SF to LA and out to PA. As a business we operate with a document heavy, meeting light, async first culture. Our seed funding comes from yCombinator and Maven Ventures (of Zoom fame). We have in excess of 12 months runway and are currently on track to raise our Series A within that window. In finance speak, we're a going concern.

You'll be the third Engineer on an eight person team and the first Backend Engineer besides the CTO. You'd focus on our ruby backend, and potentially help out a bit on our frontend from time to time.

If you want to learn more about our engineering, we've written a nifty Technical Vision document that outlines the direction we want to take our system in, technically speaking. https://www.notion.so/daybreakhealth/Technical-Vision-2021-0...

For more on our culture and the role, check out our job description on https://daybreak-health.breezy.hr/p/a27079cba61a-sr-backend-...

To apply, use the Apply Now button in that job description. We're a tiny company - I promise that either the CTO or I will see it!
