Noted, and working on it! Pages are copy-on-write as most on the site are intended to be templates where that behaviour makes sense. Working on mitigating annoyances like those observed in these threads. Longstanding browser-specific issues like https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1001790 make this tricky!

Seconding this. We were spending $$$$ with one of Ubicloud/WarpBuild/BuildJet. The switch was painless, builds are now faster, and we're able to use AWS credits which were otherwise going to expire.

Page titles in Google search results don't have "<br>" escaped, at least on desktop.

Seems to only affect some sites, including Reddit.

Surely(!) their SERPs aren't vulnerable to XSS, but I found this hilarious. Submitted a bug report but not holding my breath.

I'm getting "upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: connection failure"

Relatedly, several years ago I scraped all companies on the old companies house webcheck site. There were two that interrupted my scraper: both contained '<' in the company name, and both seemed to take the webcheck service offline for a few seconds whenever I requested their pages. I can't say for sure - it might have been a temporary IP block I suppose - but it amused me nonetheless.

From the perspective of a couple of engineer founders who went back and forth between two drastically different termsheets over the course of a few months of negotiations, it was either stick with a figure that relied on a deal we were leaning against, or share the most accurate picture at that point in time. It seems hard to justify acting differently, given the situation.

Sincere apologies to your friend. At that point we were bootstrapping, and had been for a year. We had a fundraise coming together but the amount and timing were at that point unknown, hence lack of specificity regarding salary early on. We have since closed funding so things have been firmed up.

As for on-site vs remote we've always been happy to do remote for the right candidate but prefer on-site. We have in the past and continue to have a few remote employees.

Hadean | Systems Programmer | London | ONSITE, VISA

We're looking for a brilliant systems-level implementor to join us in London, or potentially remote, who matches ≥6 of the following:

  • loves C
  • loves Rust
  • has a wide array of ambitious self-directed projects
  • has got their hands dirty writing technically complex systems, such as:
    ◦ a high-performance database/KV store
    ◦ an OS
    ◦ a programming language implementation
  • enjoys writing roughly–performance-optimal code
  • enjoys writing roughly–reliability-optimal code (static/bounded memory allocation)
  • has used EPOLLET
  • has used io_submit + O_DIRECT
  • has bypassed the Linux kernel (for fun and/or profit)
  • has written on top of paravirtualisation APIs
  • enjoys reverse engineering
  • [insert your own comparable points here]

Our team runs the gamut — systems, distributed systems, compilers, professors, famous computer scientists — and is well-funded to change the landscape of compute. If intrigued, drop us an email at jobs@hadean.com

We're looking for people (LONDON, ONSITE) who match at least some of the following:

• love C

• love Rust

• salivate at the idea of running large scale distributed compute on bare metal (no Linux)

• enjoy zero/bounded-allocation programming

• create highly reliable, near performance-optimal software that does the least amount of work for a given task

• despise the prevailing big data stack (Spark, Hadoop, Java) and can cogently explain why it's so painful to use

• are undogmatic - skeptical of new viewpoints but can readily admit when they're wrong

• have been programming obsessively from an early age

• have "hacker" backgrounds (3 of our team have grey-ish hat backgrounds, including writing the first bootsector virus before viruses were illegal!)

• have experience writing on top of paravirtualisation APIs

Our team spans the gamut, from systems to distributed systems, with a mix of interesting backgrounds. Salary >= £50k plus early employee equity.

We're looking for a brilliant compiler expert to join our 6 man team (ONSITE). We're a London (UK) based startup that includes ex MIT researchers, PhDs, and successful serial entrepreneurs, all with 10+ years industry experience. We've built companies worth over $100m, and now we're building our next $100 billion+ startup.

We are commoditising supercomputing at global scale. Major banks, hedge funds, startups, government and enterprise are lining up simultaneously as customers and investors. Their applications range from predicting financial markets and climate modelling to powering AI and synthetic biology.

The role involves leading our language and compiler implementation efforts, building optimizing compilers to generate efficient code across HPC hardware. You will help achieve this by both applying existing research in the literature and our in-house research, as well as carrying out new research. Our current work has involved implementing efficient LLVM frontends. You will be our resident compiler expert and as the company grows, take on a senior leadership role building and running our Languages Research Division.

Salary:

£100k + 2% in stock
