I do. It's pretty fun.

This might be a bit embarrassing ... but a couple of years ago, Dan Sinker came by and asked a few of the developers in the newsroom to talk about exactly that question.

nice...but yikes that seems like an intimidating place to apply for a job...you guys are all heavy hitters...

[bennyg]

I interviewed there almost a year ago for an iOS position, and it was an awesome atmosphere. There was a certain energy to the place and everyone knew a ton of stuff in the domain. I didn't get the job, but had fun anyways for that day in NYC.

I totally wouldn't be intimidated. We all just love what we do. The best way to get a job is often to get to know the folks on the team, hack with them on projects. I'd really hate to work at a place that I felt was exclusive.

[akilism]

Oh I didn't mean to imply it was exclusive, just that I'd feel like I was out of my league. Like I've built a few things with D3 but I still find myself getting confused sometimes, and I've gone through some of David Nolen's clojurescript posts / tutorials and I'm still not 100% clear on the advantages of core.async...but then again I don't use them all that often either.

[esmooov]

Well, if you ever wanna chat about core.async or PourOver or jobs or life, I'm more than happy to do so: [e-mail] Nolen's also a great guy and really serious about helping folks out with stuff like core.async. I'm sure he wouldn't mind jumping in an IRC chat to guide you along!
