same!

Whats the tech stack for the iOS app?

I've never used it, but https://nodered.org/ seems interesting.

Its definitely worth it, if nothing else its good practice, and identification of your weaker parts (they cover a wide spectrum) would be super useful.

Also, you would be given an option to schedule a practice mock test for the final interview.

Yes, this is spot on.

For optimizing the top of the funnel, one approach which has worked well for me in the past is to use LinkedIn to connect with EMs who are hiring (they are looking for people like you), friends at other companies & and also accept invites from 3rd party recruiters. Good 3rd party recruiters can specially be helpful in reviewing your profile, and finding good fits. In the past they've helped me discover some very interesting companies. Getting referrals via TeamBlind is common as well.

Also keep in mind that hiring tends to be seasonal. Companies are generally very aggressive at the top of the year, and by Oct-Dec things do slow down a bit (but this is not always the case, for example if a company raised some $$$ in that period). In the past I've avoided applying to postings which are more than 3 weeks old.

You could also try services like TripleByte, which flip the funnel, and help you go directly go to onsites (there are some caveats though).

For the tech rounds, it's just more practice. Unfortunately the interview process is heavily biased towards people who practice, and has little to do with your actual abilities - and you are competing against such folks. For that I've found Pramp, interviewing.io, leetcode, educative (the grokking algorithms and system design courses), GH system design primer, (our even services like Outco.io) etc. to be very useful. The good thing is that atleast in SV these bits have become fairly standardized now, and if you spend time preparing, it significantly increases your hit-rate with everyone.

They don't seem to have an API?

VoodooPad, with web export.

I'm waiting for a resolution on H4-EAD. Thats going to be a very important factor for me (since my spouse depends on it).

Hi! I have been looking for something, its awesome!

Apart the main use-case, I'm also trying to figure out how to fit it for this use-case – For a specific URL I would like to capture all requests made from the frontend app (JS) in production to the backend, and then replay it for a local version of the frontend.

Not sure yet, but it seems to be due to AWS (S3 likely).

Amex

PayMill doesn't have a credit card vault. So it can never be or provide the same features as Stripe.

Wasn't this posted and trending on HN just a couple of days ago.

Point noted.

The max. duration of an auction is 3 weeks.

* There is a guard against the situation you mention. What name and amount did you put in?

Here is what I think happened:

There was an auto bid of a higher amount placed earlier by 'K'. You placed a bid successfully. Then 'K''s autobid kicked in and beat you.

* The widget does not update immediately. Your bid gets queued, and then executed. If another bid in the queue beats you then you get an email appropriately. Once your bid has been executed (in the background), the widget will update.

Yes, I had thought about Dutch Auctions earlier. Currently though, the system supports 'English Auctions', the bid engine is pluggable so doing such a thing should be easy ;).

All I need is one paying customer asking for it, and it would happen.

Yes, a ticking countdown timer could be a good idea. I'll certainly keep folks posted

Yes, the idea is that you already have a page and then you embed this button.

Much like those PayPal, Stripe etc Pay Now buttons

Got it
