Are you only looking for SF based or are you open to remote engineers (i.e. SE Asia)


SF or BLR based only unfortunately. If you're interested in Amsterdam, Seattle, Philly, or NYC as well, feel free to reach out and I can point you in the right direction. No remote.

Meditation makes a huge difference for me. I've tried a number of different methods, including using biofeedback devices but the most effective for me has been http://www.headspace.com. People who tend to have difficulty turning off the noise in their heads (such as myself) do well with guided imagery training such as that.


I'm in the middle of Feet of Clay - he'll be in my heart as I finish it.


I've seen convincing results from amino acid therapy, but I sit among the skeptics on multi-vitamins. Without some sort of differentiating research for their products, this doesn't seem vastly superior to a recurring amazon purchase.


Hi there, if you take 3 or more vitamins a day, our packs are arranged into daily doses and far more convenient that dealing with pill bottles. Would love to hear your feedback.

Thanks, Arad -- zenamins, CEO and Founder


If she started a kickstarter, I'd be happy to fund...


I would as well.


I loved that this required no instructions. Really beautiful.


Just to give a difference of opinion, I don't think that this is necessarily representative of the entire HN community. I for one maintain a FB account almost exclusively for apps like this, so that I can reuse my social graph.

Disclaimer: I've done work in the past with one of the founders on a former iteration of this product.


Yours is not a bad idea, having a separate account, but I think that the number of people that have one is definately a minority respect the people that will just ditch the app because of it, worse, on mobile they will leave a bad review.


I would have never tried this app if I didn't have a throwaway FB account.


To play devil's advocate, I wonder if it's possible that there is no foul play on either side - if the car had issues displaying accurate data to the driver but logged properly to Tesla, he might have thought he was discontinuing the charge with a fuller battery then he had. Same for the speedometer (a chilling thought) and temperature.

As for the circles in the parking lot - I'd probably do donuts too if I was given free reign over a slick sports car.

Obviously it's far fetched to think that display inaccuracies were really the case, but food for thought.


> As for the circles in the parking lot - I'd probably do donuts too if I was given free reign over a slick sports car.

Yeah, but the middle of a range test without mentioning it in the article is a bit suspicious. Also, thanks for implicitly revealing your standards for an acceptable white lie and acceptable journalism. ;) (Okay, devil's advocate, so it only reveals about your devil's advocate persona.)


to a reporter given the chance, donuts might be considered "normal use patterns" :-)


I wonder what car insurance actuaries would make of this?


I would expect the car to show a higher speed to the driver (by 5%) not lower


Agreed if things are going right - but again, for the sake of discussion, one could fathom there being some sort of bug. I don't believe that this could realistically be the case, but I'm just trying to mention all possibilities...


If you pass along your info to me, I'll be happy to ask around to some of my prospective/current clients. See profile - good luck!
