ServiceBell | Live chat reimagined with video chat | Remote | Full Time (Contract) | https://servicebell.com | https://jobs.polymer.co/servicebell/27137

ServiceBell is building the next generation of live chat, reimagined with video chat. We're looking for a senior, frontend leaning full-stack engineer to help us execute on our roadmap in advance of our public launch. The contract duration will likely be for 1-3 months, with the potential to convert to full-time depending on how things go!

We have a modern, React/Typescript/Redux(toolkit) based codebase, where you'd be helping us translate designs into beautiful, functional UI for our amazing customers.

If you're at all annoyed by chatbots and want to help create a better alternative, consider applying!

Feel free to email me at Daniel AT servicebell.com with any questions, or apply on Polymer: https://jobs.polymer.co/servicebell/27137

Thanks!

> In our current capitalist economy

Hasn't this always been the case, for all of humanity's existence?

Have there been any benchmarks done on the websocket side of FastAPI specifically compared to flask-socketio? Especially when scaling horizontally and needing to synchronize across many socket servers?

We're building out a product that will maintain large numbers of simultaneously connected sockets, so the "performance" pitch here is pretty compelling.

Nice! My first internet fight. Exciting.

It's not just 3000 people. My comment is relevant for entities like pension funds, mutual funds, hedge funds, insurance companies that have to allocate their float, conglomerates like Berkshire hathaway, and those "negligible" 3000 people that account for probably a quarter or higher of personal investment.

I think this is true, but only to a point. It's certainly true when the comparison is 10K to invest vs 10M, as liquidity of markets is not yet a concern and the investor with 10M is suddenly "accredited", can afford to pay a financial advisor, etc.

However, at 10M vs 10B, the 10M investor is much better off. Liquidity becomes a real concern - there's just not that many assets or stocks that can support that kind of allocation.

Small, nimble investors can usually outperform large funds simply by being able to fully enter into positions where larger funds couldn't.

If I was a shareholder of FAANG (I'm not), I wouldn't be very excited about them taking on very unprofitable tasks like solving humanity's urgent problems.
