It's what we use for our simulator center computers. Works like a charm!

It's a remote position, so you can work anywhere in the world, though we do require some overlap with Pacific time in the morning.
It's a small team of 5 developers so you would make a huge impact, both for our team and for our clients.
Obviously if you are a Perl developer, you know it is a small market so it is kinda silly to list any other requirements. We are looking for a good personality fit, good work ethic, and the openness to learn. If that sounds like you, drop us a line at jobs-at-17hats.com.

We also have two remote positions for Javascript developers. Our front end is done with Knockout and Jquery. Experience with Knockout is required, and a preference for adding value to our members rather than the latest shiny Javascript framework. Drop us a line at jobs-at-17hats.com if interested.
No appeal process, nothing. Caused significant short term cash flow issues. So be very careful using your own card.
Want to help 25,000+ small business owners clone themselves so that they can stop running out of time, and avoid burn out? Then join the 17hats team. Founded in 2014, we have built the largest all-in-one business management platform in the world. If you are a Perl wizard, we want to talk to you.

So even if we add that, our users don’t know what emails to resend, which would only add to the confusion.
When a company like sendgrid has an issue, that’s fine. It is not fine to not update their status page and leave their customers out to dry.
Our dev team at the time said rewriting it internally was impossible, so we actually paid it for 6 months. After changing the team, this was on the top of the list. It was trivial to switch.
Now, all the services that we used were stable so the benefit of easily adding and removing services was not something we needed.
Rightscale suffered similar fate when their rates kept going up. At some point it became cheaper to rewrite it ourselves.
Took 1 day to rewrite.
Yes, not a great response however the time value of calling in to complain easily exceeds $40.

Please check your facts before spreading false rumors. Thanks!
Did I miss that announcement? Because accepting e-checks has been a huge request from our clients. I just went through the documentation again but I have not been able to find how a person can pay through ACH. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction? Thanks!

Working at 17hats means you're collaborating with other A-players, so you won't have to waste time with incompetent nincompoops. You'll have the autonomy to direct your own work without being micromanaged. You'll have the opportunity to flex your technical muscularity while building on your already impressive skillset. And you'll be instrumental in dramatically improving the lives of self-employed people everywhere -- if you're like us, these people are your friends and family, and they need our help.
Everybody on our team works remotely (US, Canada, and Europe) so where you live doesn’t really matter. That being said, we do need someone who can work California business hours (9am-6pm PST) and who is available for emergencies at night. Our CTO resides in Europe and would like a good night’s sleep! Bonus points if you can curse in Dutch. Even more if you can do it in Canadian.
How to apply: Does this sound interesting? If so, please send a short email to jobs@17hats.com telling us about yourself and attach a resumé. Let us know what you can contribute to the team. We'd love to hear from you.
Despite filing disputes, it remains on my report as a $500 non-payment.
I have been able to get other items removed using your strategy but it doesn't always work.
That said, Mark seems one of the guys that really likes to help entrepreneurs. I read his post not as "Don't ever do a note" but "be very aware of unintended consequences". As I am starting to fundraise for a new company, I've felt incredibly uncomfortable with convertible notes for the reasons Mark outlined in his post. I thought I was being paranoid since everybody is saying notes are the way to go, so it is nice to read an opposing view.
Yes, that was pretty much what we experienced as well. The prep time was often much longer than 20~30 minutes, and really took the fun out of it.
Admittedly, it was all very tasty but for us, it created more pain than it solved. We tried Plated to see if it was better but it pretty much was the same experience.
In reality, both of them were way too much work. We were excited to try them but don't miss them at all. I think the blog describes it well: this is not a real pain point (at least for us - 2 adults, one baby).
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
We always felt Rightscale's pricing was rather high for what it offered (well, for our needs) and especially being charged for Rightscale Computing Units never made sense to me.
When we cancelled the contract, Rightscale offered to come down in price but we had already started moving to Opsworks. There are some small things that I miss but overall Opsworks works great. And that $30,000 saved partially allowed me to expand our team.
Rightscale only existed because Amazon didn't include something like Opsworks from the start. They should have seen that coming and planned accordingly.
It is something we will consider we will consider using.
If it works to raise money, I am happy to pay for it (we're currently trying to raise $500k so very much a potential customer). Probably worth $1k to $2.5k to me if it is successful.
