Thank you! Fixed - we have updated our site recently, and the link had been changed in the other places, but not in that document.

Open edX / OpenCraft | Full-time | TRUE REMOTE (async/worldwide) | Senior Open Source Developer on Open edX - React, Python/Django, AWS/Kubernetes
Do you care about contributing to open-source, and appreciate a good challenge? We do too! :)
Open-source
We are a team of veteran open-source developers, working on educational and community-based projects in an open-first environment – and we are looking for new members. By joining us, you will work full-time on open-source, pushing your changes to free software projects upstream through pull requests, contributing features, documentation, or help on public forums.
We care deeply about contributing our work upstream. You will see the results of your work reused and recognized across the educational community, increasing access to quality education for everyone, everywhere.
Remote-first
Unlike companies who reluctantly started to accept remote workers recently, we have embraced it from day 1. For the past 7 years, we have based and refined our way of working around remote-friendly workflows, from the ground up. No day-long video meetings, mandatory work hours, or risk of being forced back into an office one day -- as long as you have a good internet connection, it’s none of our business when or where you work from. :)
We are all working remotely, from all continents (except Antarctica, at least so far - applicants welcome!). We use remote-friendly and timezone-agnostic workflows based on asynchronous principles and good documentation practices.
Online education
We are one of the main contributors to the Open edX project, the main open-source MOOC platform created by MIT, Harvard and many other top universities. It powers sites like edX.org, the MIT Open Learning Library, and the national online learning platform for France. We provide development and hosting for institutions like Harvard Medical School, Harvard LabXchange, Cloudera, Autodesk, and several governments. We are not affiliated with edX.org, but we contribute and work with them on various projects.

Thanks, looking at the channel it wasn't immediately clear which video would explain that idea, so in case this is useful to someone else, that one goes further into it, and was interesting: https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/Cu1lnTQM0Gw
The bottom of a ceramic mug works wonders.
With a no-name, for sure. And maybe you see the difference after a long time? But after a year of unfettered abuse, my $50 Victorinox kitchen knife is still as dangerously sharp as new, and I have only sharpened it a couple of times.
Indeed! I recently discovered how sharp and good Victorinox blades are. Even their cheap 10 euros blades are unbelievably sharp. To the point where you have to handle them with additional care compared to other knives. The nonchalant way I was handling the Ikea-type cooking knives got me a few deep cuts.
For a good overview of the likely cause of the crash, see Juan Browne's review: https://youtu.be/o0aDSMUh9N8
TLDW: the likely cause of the crash was low-level aerobatic maneuvering at an altitude of 700 to 1,000 ft, which is too low for such maneuvers. The pilot may have attempted a split S maneuver (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split_S - aileron roll followed by a half loop) without getting the nose up high enough, ending up too low. It appears that the pilot had control of the airplane on the video, it wasn't stalled.

Thanks for reporting it! Could you help me to locate the broken link? I've just followed the link I included above and it worked for me. Does going to https://l2b40g1fmht.typeform.com/to/TertONEL directly work for you?

Yes, documentation is quite crucial! There are actually lots of elements that we developed over the year to manage the full remote -- and we started as true remote / any timezone from the ground up 10 years ago, so quite a lot went into it over the years. Most of the handbook itself comes from that - and as you have noted it has gotten quite thick ;p
But I think if I had to narrow it down to one core element, it's to focus on making all the processes as asynchronous as possible. Ie, limit chat & meetings to the strict minimum, and replaced them with async discussions on tickets, PRs, forums & checklists tools like https://www.listaflow.com/ (we have even gotten rid of the sprint meetings! no more 3am meeting for anyone, even when in the Pacific :) ). Also we come from the free software / open source world, so quite a lot is inspired from it.
If you're interested in discussing more, don't hesitate to reply & ask questions here, or email me at xavier AT opencraft DOT com.
Open edX / OpenCraft | Full-time | TRUE REMOTE (async/worldwide) | Senior Open Source Developer on Open edX - React, Python/Django, AWS/Kubernetes
Do you care about contributing to open-source, and appreciate a good challenge? We do too! :)
Open-source
We are a team of veteran open-source developers, working on educational and community-based projects in an open-first environment – and we are looking for new members. By joining us, you will work full-time on open-source, pushing your changes to free software projects upstream through pull requests, contributing features, documentation, or help on public forums.
We care deeply about contributing our work upstream. You will see the results of your work reused and recognized across the educational community, increasing access to quality education for everyone, everywhere.
Remote-first
Unlike companies who reluctantly started to accept remote workers recently, we have embraced it from day 1. For the past 7 years, we have based and refined our way of working around remote-friendly workflows, from the ground up. No day-long video meetings, mandatory work hours, or risk of being forced back into an office one day -- as long as you have a good internet connection, it’s none of our business when or where you work from. :)
We are all working remotely, from all continents (except Antarctica, at least so far - applicants welcome!). We use remote-friendly and timezone-agnostic workflows based on asynchronous principles and good documentation practices.
Online education
We are one of the main contributors to the Open edX project, the main open-source MOOC platform created by MIT, Harvard and many other top universities. It powers sites like edX.org, the MIT Open Learning Library, and the national online learning platform for France. We provide development and hosting for institutions like Harvard Medical School, Harvard LabXchange, Cloudera, Autodesk, and several governments. We are not affiliated with edX.org, but we contribute and work with them on various projects.
Our handbook, like much of our work, is publicly viewable and you can find it at https://handbook.opencraft.com/.
