How this gets posted on HN is beyond me, perhaps that's where the isolation of modern life leads to.

I think there is a wide gap between public surveillance and private surveillance.

Smart glasses record in private settings and the biggest point of contention is that they "stealth" record. If someone recorded you with their phone, you'd immediately notice whereas it's hardly noticeable with smart glasses. Worse, people at Facebook are able to visualize scenes from people's home unbeknownst to them.

That image always felt dystopian to me

A family member has one and I didn't notice until they had to charge their pair. The little circles are subtle giveaways otherwise they look like regular pair of glasses. When everything is always on, I'd like to keep my house "off" and those things are a direct violation of that.

I let it work all night, wake up and eat klocs for breakfast.

Or when you are driving, someone sends a yes-no question where the answer is no.

Siri: Would you like to answer?

Me: Yes

Siri: ...

Me: No + more words

Siri: Ok (shuts off)

  Location: San Francisco Bay Area
  Remote: Preferred
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: Typescript (Node, Express, Svelte), Rust, Postgres, AWS and related technologies
  Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomaspotaire/
  Email: [email protected] (forwards to my address)

I am transitioning out of my role of CTO and am exploring opportunities. I have 15 years of web experience building CMS and CRM for small and large companies.

As a co-founder (as well as my prior years), I wore many hats and spent countless hours as a result I can architect and design large codebases, hire and retain talent, lead and manage teams and set company-wide goals. I built and managed an engineering team located all around the globe and built a platform empowering small and medium businesses to run their operations; the company is entering a new phase of growth and it is the right time for me to find opportunities that aligns with my personal goals.

I am looking for a role at an established company. The bigger the problem, the more exciting. A perfect role for my profile may be one that blends my experience of building a successful B2B2C startup (building teams, product and software) and my experience of building B2B tools at a large company (Twitter).

If you need someone that can be an immediate value-add, bringing a ton of firepower, solving big problems and rallying teams to move mountains: hit me up!
