[9fans] Why not work for a company based on Plan 9?

2010-10-25 Thread Brantley Coile
hi guys,

as most on this list know, coraid makes storage devices that use plan 9 as the 
software platform.  we also use it as our primary development environment.  we 
still run a ken file server here.  plan 9 is fundamental to our vision.  coraid 
has become a hot silicon valley property and we are about to start another 
round of hiring developers.  i knew it would be a disservice to this mailing 
list if i didn't make an announcement here.

developers, qa, and support folks can work either in redwood city, ca or 
athens, ga.  there are the usual up and coming silicon valley startup stock 
options.  and in athens, you don't have to pay those silicon valley prices for 
housing and beer.  athens is very affordable on both these counts, especially 
the beer as anyone who attended the 2009 iwp9 will attest.

i hope we're creating a place that i would have wanted to work.  it's not every 
place that you can work with plan 9, get paid for it and participate in a high 
potential start-up.

please send resume's to me.

Brantley,

I'm asking publicly because I'm betting it's a FAQ.  Do you consider remote
employees as a possibility, or do you require relocation?

Re: [9fans] Why not work for a company based on Plan 9?

2010-10-25 Thread David Leimbach
Thank you for answering the question.  Let me explain my point of view on
the exchange.

I worked for a company in Birmingham AL for about 6 years from Seattle.  I
had Birmingham insurance, Birmingham HR people etc, but I was remote.  I
thought perhaps it was not clear if one could be a satellite employee for
one of those offices or not.

I felt that when you basically cut and pasted your response to me, that you
were irritated by my question and answering me in a rude way.  I was not
trying to troll the thread, but now it may appear to be the opposite.

I have a lot of respect for what you guys have done with Plan 9 and AOE, and
think it's an interesting business, but suddenly I felt that perhaps I
wouldn't have a compatible personality with the boss.

Anyway, I'd like to reboot the discussion, but it's in the archives now :-).

I do wish you, very sincerely, to have continued success with your business.

Dave

2010-10-25 Thread Brantley Coile
dave,

no problem.  i didn't cut and paste the answer, but i'm very sorry that i gave 
that impression.  i'm a pretty easygoing guy, a fact that isn't obvious over an 
email list.  i wasn't irritated by the question at all.  the question was a 
very good one.

the reason we can't do remote employees is that one of our objectives is that 
plan9ers have a positive cultural influence on the entire development group.  i 
feel such an influence requires daily interaction.  but we will keep you in 
mind as we grow.

in all my interactions i try to emulate the gentlemanly ways of dennis ritchie.

Brantley,

I apologize for my confrontational attitude.  It's totally unnecessary, and
I wish that I could take it all back.

You certainly didn't deserve it, and the 9fans aren't deserving the noise
I've caused by my stupid approach to this thread.

The way I see this is two reasonable people working a misunderstanding out.
There are many contemporary examples of endless mud-slinging with no real

  it's not every place that you can work with plan 9, get paid for it
 and

Re: [9fans] Why not work for a company based on Plan 9?

2010-10-26 Thread Mathieu Lonjaret
Hello,

another one which might be a FAQ:
Do you require applicants to be from the USA, or are you ok with ppl
from the old continent (or anywhere else for that matter) ?

Cheers,
Mathieu

hi guys,

as most on this list know, coraid makes storage devices that use plan 9 as the 
software platform.  we also use it as our primary development environment.  we 
still run a ken file server here.  plan 9 is fundamental to our vision.  coraid 
has become a hot silicon valley property and we are about to start another 
round of hiring developers.  i knew it would be a disservice to this mailing 
list if i didn't make an announcement here.

developers, qa, and support folks can work either in redwood city, ca or 
athens, ga.  there are the usual up and coming silicon valley startup stock 
options.  and in athens, you don't have to pay those silicon valley prices for 
housing and beer.  athens is very affordable on both these counts, especially 
the beer as anyone who attended the 2009 iwp9 will attest.

i hope we're creating a place that i would have wanted to work.  it's not every 
place that you can work with plan 9, get paid for it and participate in a high 
potential start-up.

please send resume's to me.

That would be the primary blocker for me, as I don't want to
leave my home country :(

Could you perhaps imagine giving certain projects to contractors
in a foreign country ?

Hi, Brantley,

Do you have internships for MS students? I'm in Portland, OR now and i
can't move anywhere until summer, because i'm a full-time student.

Cheers
