Per the address and contact number at bottom did the (415) area code formerly encompass Palo Alto?

I've been using Waterfox the past month or two and it's great.


What does “ex-china” mean, excluding China?

Edit: did a quick find-in-page on mobile for “china” and it appears 0 times. Though notably China is missing from the geographic charts


Yes, excluding china. I don’t have a lot of companies based in china in my crawl data currently.


That makes sense, they have their own ecosystem for posting jobs there.


Got it, thanks. Good write up and presentation.


Do they even hire engineers from abroad, or at least from the West?


Why not? Tiktok certainly needed engineers?


It’s almost like HN is a great platform for the POSSE model!

Awesome share thanks for the link. Will send to a family member who is looking to gain viewership with their writing - they usually post on medium I think.


I don’t wholly disagree but consider it more a datapoint than an outlier that should be omitted.


Everybody knows delivery apps are shitty, if it were just gossip it wouldn’t matter but making specific allegations should be backed up with proof.


“Human food was never the focus”

I eagerly purchase insect/grub kibble for my dog - both fly and cricket based. Also a lot of vegetarian kibble, I am a vegetarian myself.


But still your dog doesn't really want to eat the bugs, it's just there's no bowl of steak next to it


Have you met dogs?


We had a dog who would pull watermelon rinds out of the compost pile to eat. We gave her nice bones, but it's not enough. Nothing is enough. All is food and food is all.


How mighty wolves have fallen...


How can you know that? Dogs were domesticated on being fed scraps to start with and came from wolves which are also natural scavengers and eat all sorts of nasty (to us) things. Ive seen many dogs happily gobble up insects, even stink bugs. Dogs don't even know what their food is made out of 95% of the time these days so im not sure anybody can claim they simply don't like eating insect food without some kind of study to back it up.


I was being a little facetious. Yes they probably "like" processed insect food designed for them, but for the average dog, I'm still betting on the steak.

Wolves scavenge opportunistically, but they are first apex predators. Their primary food drive is to hunt in packs for large game and gorge. Dogs are not so far removed.


Maybe it’s similar to onlyfans where people get to chat with or receive messages from a model. People also create accounts to upload content.


Cool website, gave it a go. I am not a general advocate of license plate tracking but believe it’s a double edge sword. A former vehicle was stolen and recovered twice - likely due to tracking technology.


Cars can have tracking devices installed that remain dormant until remotely activated by the owner in case of theft.

This is how Netstar and Tracker does it in South Africa. To massive success. So much so that a car without one of these installed is basically uninsurable.

There is no need for external 3rd party tracking.


Strange, it appears I am unable to deny the advertising cookie on mobile.


Yes, particularly for diesel engines.
