Doesn&#x27;t work.<p>Enter an address. Backspace across the whole field to clear it. It kicks you to a map with &quot;unexpected error has occurred&quot;. Can&#x27;t get back to input fields.<p>Can&#x27;t find San Jose, ca, or any permutation I tried. California by itself gets hundred of hits, too many to scroll down to see if it has California, USA. Maybe sort by population?

I’m curious as to why you are calling this a startup. Are you actually planning to get investors and turn this into a stand alone business? How would you plan to monetize users?

Searched for Lucee in London, U.K. and it brought back a map featuring Target stores in the Lansing area. Going to be quite embarrassed if I find all Target stores using Swiss based open source ColdFusion servers.

Also relevant to anyone trying this approach to job hunting: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stackshare.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stackshare.io&#x2F;</a>

At least on mobile, I don’t see any call for action (or “are you a company? get relevant candidates by adding your company stack - click here”). Also without clear data on page views, the pricing is hard to evaluate (if it’s a bargain or a rip off, all based on your average page views for a given geography). I probably want to pay by impressions &#x2F; clicks, not a flat fee that I have no clue if anyone would ever see me in any search results. Sorry for the “jargonese” but the value metric (impressions &#x2F; candidates contacting you) doesn’t match the pricing (flat). This needs some work before I’d put my money on it.

I like that I can find openings within biking distance. It&#x27;s a major advantage!<p>I don&#x27;t like that the labels don&#x27;t differentiate between HQ and small branch office of a company&#x2F;bank.

Bug report for the operators:<p>After I entered a search, the website went completely dead with the following message:<p>&gt; An unexpected error has occurred.<p>I tried to open a new tab and reload, but it&#x27;s gone.<p>FWIW, I declined location API access.

This is an interesting idea. There are a few bugs mentioned in the comments here but I think the current version is more than merely MVP quality.

Neat! Surprised to see so many results for Clojure. The mobile UX is pretty hellish, though. I’ll have to check it out again on desktop.

Interesting startup. Looks cool. Where do you source the data from? Usings APIs for job search engines?

What are the legal implications when scraping stepstone and so on for their data? I am honestly curious because we build roughly the same for a university project one year ago.

We&#x27;re HQ&#x27;d in Portland, OR. But, we allow remote work anywhere in the US and Canada. How is that sort of situation handled by this service?

I checked my company and the result was funny knowing our business… Ok, it’s a big corp with several office, so I guess it’s harder to infer.

Search for C# comes up with nothing. Guessing it&#x27;s a parsing error related to the # sign?

Lol. Two of the results they come up with for Haskell in the nyc area are my teams past and present.

Probably my fault for trying to use it from a smart phone browser but the struggle was real. Safari.<p>First thing it did was ask me if it could use my location. I said no. It then took me to a map centered on my current location! I don’t really care and only said no because I was prompted and default to better safe than sorry answers, but being asked and then ignored rubbed me the wrong way.<p>Next problem was the map kept flashing in and out little blue circles with numbers on them like “63” which I assumed meant this was the 63rd company in the database using Ruby on Rails (only tech I put in) but when I tried to zoom in it disappeared and a new number “43” appeared in a different location with “63” no where to be found. I zoomed in again and that one disappeared too. I was attempting to zoom in on the location of the number and can’t promise you I didn’t zoom in wrong but certainly felt like I was zooming in on the exact spot the number was located.<p>Anyway, that was when I exited. I am really interested in the concept and would check it out again from my desktop if if was on the front page again when I was browsing from home. Good luck with your product!
