zjgreen··on Ask HN: How do I know if the startup I'm working at is dysfunctional?
Interesting topic. There is nothing you can lose by starting a friendly "debate".

There are three likely scenarios:

1. You are wrong, CTO is correct, and you learn something valuable.

2. You are correct, the CTO is wrong, and he gains respect for your initiative and skillz

3. You are correct, the CTO is wrong, and he loses respect for you.

First two are obviously good, 3rd one is a good sign you probably won't or shouldn't stay long there.

zjgreen··on The Onboarder Test: 12 Steps to Better Onboarding
If only new jobs could be this good hahah...

I'd add "do you get introduced around the office?", and "go out to a bar on day 1". Never done that second one, but think it could be either a really really good, or really bad idea.

zjgreen··on How We Found All Of Optimizley’s Clients
I don't know... seems easier to do a search than to setup a server to crawl for files (and even then, how do you know which domain it belongs to?) Looks like they made it 'productized' and easy for anyone to use.

Also, reginaldjcooper is right... this sounds like you're just brute forcing optimizely lol
