I hope you never need this. But if you do, you can get it from me on github here.
It’s a little craptacular at the moment, but it works. I will maintain and enhance it depending on demand.

Code as Craft
Please take a second to subscribe to the new Etsy engineering blog, Code as Craft. There’s not much there yet except a few introductory posts by Chad, but there is content in the pipeline. My coworkers are uniformly brilliant and amazing and will undoubtedly have many interesting things to say.
I personally will be writing a series of posts about our large-scale flirtations with MongoDB. I also hope to find some time to write about Scala, Buildbot, EC2, Python, Postgres vs. MySQL, and maybe some more abstract topics.

Job Advertisement
If you know me, used to work with me, or are unfazed by the ill-considered, hotheaded tirades I infrequently post here, please consider getting in touch. If you do, and it works out, here is what I personally feel comfortable promising you:
- You will work on a relatively small team on one of the largest websites in the world.
- Your work will be interesting. There will be problems of scale that you just don't have at most other places. You will get to use the cool kid NoSQL databases, learn about web operations, and other fun stuff.
- You will like your coworkers, and they will be uniformly brilliant and talented.
- You will work on something that by and large makes a positive impact on people's lives.
- You will not miss your stinky financial industry job even a little bit.

Disaster Movie on Orchard and Stanton
Hey, nifty, fake rocks (click for larger versions).
I assume it's either related to this, or it's "Movie Where Manhattan Explodes #957." (They are getting less and less creative with the titles these days.)
