Skillit is on a mission to provide construction companies with the most efficient way to recruit and retain skilled labor.
We're creating the infrastructure for skilled trade hiring that enables fast, smooth and scalable construction recruitment globally. Our first product, Craft Recruiter™, provides construction companies access to a rapidly growing database of qualified workers and a suite of worker-first hiring tools that use rich datasets and powerful algorithms to generate better recruiting, employment and business outcomes.
We are currently hiring full stack Ruby on Rails developers.
A topic that rarely comes up when talking about remote work is where workers are in their career. I can’t imagine being at the start of my career and having to figure out, via Slack, who my mentors are going to be. Or how to get ad hoc advice from someone more senior without feeling like I was “bothering” them. I’ve been remote for the majority of my career now, but definitely got a lot out of in-person interactions when I was younger.

"With both gaps, SFUSD evidenced greater inequities than state averages in 2015, and that relative underperformance worsened by 2019. The district’s anti-tracking public relations campaign, by focusing on metrics such as grades and course enrollments, diverts attention from the harsh reality that SFUSD is headed in the wrong direction on equity."
This. I looked up this exact bug to post it in this thread, but you beat me to it :). Such as shame that this bug was reported way back in 2012 and never fixed.
"Conservancy assists FLOSS project leaders by handling all matters other than software development and documentation, so the developers can focus on what they do best: improving the software for the public good."
I've donated... Conservancy does good for a lot of great projects. Heck, if you're using / developing FOSS, you're pretty much 100% guaranteed to be helped by the work Conservancy is doing.
I wrote here about why I'm supporting, and why you should too:
I would donate but only if 100% of the money goes toward the projects and not social causes such as teaching x/y/z to code or an outreach program for demographic a/b/c (looking at Gnome Foundation and Mozilla here).
If you want to donate to a project (e.g. twisted, wine, whatever), 90% goes to the project and 10% goes to the SFC. The 10% is mostly covering operational costs as the SFC is incredibly helpful.
We (PyPy) are working with them for quite a bit and we spend the 90% either earmarked for the specific proposals or on sprint accomodation/travel/etc. if you don't wish to specify the proposal.
I was already considering donating a meaningful amount, but now I will donate double to compensate for the effect your absurd statement might had on HN readers.
One of the organization's staff (but not as an official activity, afaik) has a repository of filings of many free/open type organizations, https://gitorious.org/floss-foundations/npo-public-filings/ which is useful for comparison purposes, and welcomes contributions of info (most of it is available elsewhere on the web, but can be hard to find). Perhaps ought to be a website.
A little late to the party, but... Alta Bicycle Share is the operator of bicycle sharing systems across the country and internationally including Citi Bike (NYC), Divvy (Chicago), Capital Bikeshare (Washington, DC), Hubway (Boston), Bay Area Bike Share (SF Bay Area), CoGo (Columbus, OH), Bike Chattanooga, and Melbourne Bike Share (Melbourne, AU) and we are looking for a senior web developer to work with our team building software that supports our operations across the country.
Our team handles two distinct pieces of bike share operations: the customer-facing sites for each of our cities (like www.citibikenyc.com) and internal tools that help our staff with their work in the day-to-day running of a bike share system (like our rebalancers, mechanics, dispatch, etc). Our technology stack is mostly PHP right now, though at least one of our internal APIs is written in Ruby, and I'd be open to arguments for moving languages / stacks. Looking for a full-stack web developer, but really I'm just looking for someone who is excited about both software and bike share.
