Thanks! I had a good idea about the company from the get go, so wasn't really concerned. I was still in college when I started donating my time to DuckDuckGo and never dreamed of ever being fiscally reliant on it. I am very used to contributing to FOSS projects since it's how I learned to code which fit right into the DDG culture. I guess what I'm really trying to say is that even if DDG flipped in 6 months I wouldn't be in any worse shape since I was consulting while donating time to DDG. It's just great to work for something you believe in that challenges you everyday. Gabriel's concept of Inbound Hiring comes with an Hors d'œuvre of sink or swim culture. I think this is a good thing; especially where we are at now. Thanks again!

It's definitely a cultural thing though. It works at DDG, where Gabriel will personally answer email from users. I'm glad this has worked out so well for you and look forward to seeing your future projects.
