@caseysoftware Actually Austin-based - is a full-time position with a local enterprise startup. Will drop you an email.
Thinking about the fall of TV / rise of streaming: completely predicted by torrents over a decade ago. Ignore geek activity at your peril.
@g105b It's a full-time position with an Austin-based enterprise SaaS company I'm close to. Remote is OK.

Looking for an analytical, high-quality, self-motivated, creative PHP developer (not for Known). Hit me up if you have a lead.
Made new friends last night, and stayed out til closing time having exactly the sorts of conversations the pub was made for. Happy Ben.

@jessifer @saragoldrickrab Also, I'm now super-curious: what did the group conclude about @withknown? ;) @ev
