"Since the start of organized warfare, the crucial sinew of war had been “endless streams of money.”
- LeetCode (and other tests)
- Homework assignments
- Looking at pedigree (university)
- Looking at experience (where you've been working)
- Looking at portfolio (open source contribution)
- Using gut feeling
Each has its drawbacks. So what is the fairest way to interview software engineers? I guess, we should let software engineers pick their poison and start from there.

The answers are content marketing and spreading words in niche tech communities.

They are remote co-founders, if you will.
Is this a bootstrap business or a VC-funded business? I'm just curious.
"we" -> how many co-founders?
I am building this because I don't want to work full-time. So I want to collect all the part-time jobs.
We'll see whether I can turn it into a successful business. Even if I got 10% of the revenue of Remote OK, I would be very happy. Haha.

Technically speaking, building a meme platform that takes recompensation into account is an interesting problem.

The owner of the project is Gergely Orosz. He likes to talk about salaries on his Twitter account: https://twitter.com/GergelyOrosz/
One of his tweets that contrasts the salaries in Europe vs US is this one: https://twitter.com/GergelyOrosz/status/1424751510995406850
I also made a similar project. It has mostly the salaries data in Indonesia, but there are few salaries data in Singapore and US. This is the project: https://predictsalary.com/salaries
The challenge is probably in marketing. There is a positive body movement. Any body should be accepted as they are. Any body is beautiful. So when you try to market your app to obese or overweight people, things can get awkward. So good luck!
I, myself, try to gain weight. So I'm not your target. :)

This can go further than sharing opinions. People's livelihood will be based on their pseudonymous accounts. It happens already in cryptocurrencies projects. Some accounts who work in these projects are pseudonymous accounts. They can accept payment via cryptocurrencies.
You can use "they" as a singular pronoun.
You can use "one" like: "if one wants to do this, one will do this."
You can use "his or her" like: "if the user wants to do this, he or she will do this."
Some writers like to rotate "he" and "she". So sometimes they write "if the user wants to do this, he has to do this first." Then later, in another paragraph, the writers write, "The user doesn't like this widget. She prefers that widget."
Soon I will create a tool to share the salaries. I'm inspired by the story below.
