My team leverages feature flagging heavily. Developers want to clean them up but product doesn't prioritize the tickets, and it creates more burden for QA as well having to do a full regression test.
Kind of crazy how all these articles come out about what it's like working at Stripe and how to apply. Everyone I've talked to who has applied has not received a response from their application.
Even in my most recent experience I wrote a cover letter, reached out to multiple Stripe recruiters. Most of them either ignored me, or said that they were not working on that role and said my status is still "pending".
I imagine that Stripe's recruiting team is overwhelmed but it was unfortunate that they weren't able to get back to me. I ended up accepting an engineering manager position over payments at another company.
> will u provide a command line tool to verify websites?
not in the foreseeable future. we have had some discussions allowing keybase as a trusted connection and mark any properties they have verified as verified in brave as well. we might have more news on that front in the future.
> why are referrals tied to channels instead of account?
very good question, this is a symptom of tech debt. we're hoping to move it over to the account very soon
> will you expand to micropayments?
we're discussing more ways to spend your BAT and that's all I'll say about that :)
> will brave always block ads everywhere or will you switch to blocking only on verified sites?
brave will block 3rd party ads, in the future we will be introducing publisher ads which will allow websites to define sections of their site to for Brave to insert local privacy-preserving advertisements. the publishers get 70% of the revenue and users receive 30%.
You can sell BAT via any crypto exchange or website. Coinbase, Uphold, Binance, etc. You can even choose to have BAT automatically convert to USD, Euro, etc.
Brave does follow this patreon style model. There's a section in the Brave Rewards panel that mentions "Auto-contribute" which does what your describing.
You can also easily enable and disable Brave Ads while still contributing (though you'd need to fund your browser wallet)
I think Brave's business model of blocking all these harmful ads that track you is awesome. Users can then opt-in to get paid to view notification-based privacy preserving ads. Websites and publishers can make up for the loss of revenue from these ads through creators.brave.com
