Zume is on a quest to be the most powerful source of health and well-being on the planet. We started by partnering people with technology to create a more thoughtful and efficient way to source, make, bake and deliver pizza. In the process, we are delivering an artisan pizza that takes care of the people who eat it and make it, and even takes better care of the planet we all love—a planet 9 billion people will inhabit by mid-century.

We are looking for experienced technology leaders with great communication skills to help build, improve, and scale our products - leaders who will own delivery of major features that enable a complex logistics machine to run smoothly and flawlessly, to the delight of Zume’s customers.

I like emphasis on performance by keeping things light on the browser. I feel many of the popular frameworks focus too much on abstraction rather than providing the best user experience for the end user (primarily load times and disregard for accessibility).

Thanks for sharing!

danielbankhead | 8 years ago | on: Show HN: Sundown – an alternative to Markdown

This looks very promising. While I do not see this as a replacement for Markdown this has some potential for use cases where Markdown is less suitable, like messaging.

The explicit use of the colon makes things a bit saner for users - we’ve all written some ‘unexpected’ markdown before; between the many different flavors (especially line breaking behavior), numerous symbols, and numerous ways to do the same thing (like underlining, bullet points and images). I can see this being a big relief for end-users for certain use-cases.

I’d love to try it out if I could see some source code (or a live demo I don’t have to sign up for). Do you plan on setting up a specification?

I designed something similar (in terms of URL-friendliness), but for distributed systems:

https://github.com/AltusAero/bronze

It's designed for use cases where collision-resistance (both time-based [UUID1] and random [UUID4]) is valued more than the size of the id. Can be used as a module (Node.js & browser) and via CLI.

Created something similar called "bronze". It tackles the problem of creating unique identifiers at a slightly different angle, while allowing high collision resistance:
