that's so shallow.

One could easily counter you with "tell that to the surviving members of families who died at the hand of terrorists who walked into the europe without a right to do so"

tomtompl··on Ask HN: I got a nasty job letter
The simplest solution to me seems to just speak with them, vocalize your doubts. In short - be honest with them and with yourself - you're after getting some responses. If they will try to not answering - you immediately know it's a red flag.

If they give you explanation - just do the research if their explanation makes sense.

tomtompl··on Ask HN: How do you manage password security?

Thank you for reasonable response to the feedback, I know it can be very delicate subject and some tend to freak out.

I can wish you luck, but it wouldn't be sincere in context of this project and how it's advertised, so let me just wish you personally, as an individual being, all the best.

Thanks for a quick convo.
