| 15:19.53 | Mirell | And now, with a USB->FXO adapter... |
| 15:43.53 | wwalker | Mirell: where are they hiring? |
| 15:44.08 | Mirell | wwalker: In Austin |
| 15:44.53 | wwalker | thanks! I've got 2 friends that are linux experts, one sysad, the other developer, looking for work. |
| 15:52.52 | Mirell | I'm thinking of changing jobs myself |
| 15:53.13 | Mirell | I love my job at the current place, but my manager is getting extremely annoying. |
| 15:58.26 | wwalker | I really like my current gig, but someone offered me a new cooler gig last night. I'm getting too old for startups or I'd jump |
| 15:59.12 | wwalker | what level of embedded do you do? bare metal, vxworks, linux,....? |
| 15:59.34 | Mirell | Linux user-space mainly. |
| 16:00.47 | Mirell | Yah, I'm working at a start-up right now, but my boss is just way too inexperienced, like only been a manager since March, and is prone to severe anger. |
| 16:01.03 | wwalker | I'm wanting to dabble in extremely low cost computing. I did some embedded work 20 years ago. bought an arduino last week, constantly deploy WRT54GLs as remote vpn tools. |
| 16:01.45 | wwalker | yup, startups are high stress, bad place for a guy to learn management, especially if he's anger prone |
| 16:02.14 | Mirell | Which is sad, because I really love what I do, it's just best when the manager stays out of my way and let me do work. |
| 16:03.07 | Mirell | Time to dust of the ol' resume... |
| 16:04.06 | wwalker | just left his 11th startup last year |
| 16:04.17 | Mirell | This is my first currently. |
| 16:04.42 | Mirell | I've now at least learned early not to even vaguely be lured by stock grants/options as compensation. |
| 16:28.06 | wwalker | Totally agree. Make it clear during negotiation: "stock grants/options are compensation for the RISK I'm taking, they are not a replacement for a portion of my salary. If you want them to replace a portion of my salary, then they are not options, they would be grants." |
| 16:29.24 | wwalker | be warned! if someone takes you up on that, then you probably have to treat the stock value as income for tax purposes |
| 16:37.49 | SpeedEvil | extremely low cost is an interesting space |
| 16:38.02 | SpeedEvil | But you need a largish initial order. |
| 17:16.40 | Mirell | wwalker: Well, these were grants, but even still, extremely long vesting schedule. |

| 20:53.08 | SpeedEvil | http://bifferos.bizhat.com/ |
| 20:53.13 | SpeedEvil | ticks several of the boxes |
| 20:53.14 | SpeedEvil | oh |
| 20:53.23 | SpeedEvil | way off on 256, so that's not going to work |
| 20:53.29 | SpeedEvil | probably |
| 20:53.34 | SpeedEvil | you need a USB hub |
| 20:58.03 | wwalker | SpeedEvil: sweet board though! |
| 20:59.02 | SpeedEvil | woefully short on GPIO, but yes |
