Totally agree with this. Lime bikes were garbage (I have not tried their newer redesigned ones, since I swore Lime off). I had a Lime bike literally snap in half at the joint where the handlebars connect to the riding platform WHILE I was riding it. It flung me forward in to the street. Luckily no traffic around. I contacted support and they offered to reimburse me
for the ride. No indication they were treating it seriously whatsoever. After that, I can't support Lime at all.
Mixpanel | Austin/SF | Full stack, front-end | ONSITE
Mixpanel is a web / mobile analytics company, and we are hiring for our new ATX office. This is a unique opportunity to work with top-tier talent and be compensated as such while helping us a grow our small team in Austin into something bigger.
The product engineering team creates the face of Mixpanel. We organize in small, nimble product groups (two to five engineers in close partnership with PM and design) with huge autonomy over what we build and how we build it. You will own the full stack for your product areas, from database schemas and HTTP APIs to data visualization down to the last CSS detail. A passion for product and empathy for the user are key. Our stack includes Python, Golang, and lots of JavaScript & TypeScript.
Remote work is also a possibility for exceptional candidates after a period of onsite onboarding. We have several remote engineers working in this capacity around the US :)
We essentially do do this--duplicates are only looked for in the (project, user, time) shard. It’s certainly more than a handful of pages, but nothing extremely cost prohibitive at all. The indexer dedupes a whole shard at a time, but only if at least one duplicate exists--in the normal case, we just do nothing. Unfortunately, we also can’t control the number of duplicates that we get (since we ingest data from our customers, we can't control how good it is), and a lot of the time, the number of duplicates are fairly frequent due to suboptimal implementations of Mixpanel, making the whole shard deduping a fair tradeoff. We definitely never touch the network :slightly_smiling_face:
