Anyone else find their tag line a little amusingly worded?<p>"Bump is the simplest way to use your phone to interact with others in the real world."<p>I can think of at least one use of my phone to interact with others that is pretty dead simple.

Rockstars earn millions of dollars... are they paying those kind of wages?<p>C'mon guys, don't use such a trendy, silly adjective to describe people you want to hire. It's incredibly over-used.

I was under the impression that "rockstar" or "ninja" was generally frowned upon, but the terms seem to be making a(n unfortunate) comeback. (Read: reddit)<p>That said, Bump seems like a cool company, solving a cool problem. Best of luck finding your rockstarninjas!

I see "rockstar coder wanted" job ads in Craigslist all the time. And they typically offer between 1.5 and 2 times the minimum wage. I guess there are lots of them to go around.

Kind of like Jammin' Ninja? <a href="http://aceattorney.wikia.com/wiki/Jammin%27_Ninja" rel="nofollow">http://aceattorney.wikia.com/wiki/Jammin%27_Ninja</a>

their use of rockstarninja did exactly what they wanted it to -- get the job listing on the front page of hacker news.
