This is great, congrats on the launch. I never would have discovered half these venues / options without this.
This has come up on HN a couple of times (2013: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6327021 and 2020: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23725867) but keen to hear how people think about this in the age of AI.
Great intro video!

Heads up your resume link is broken.
Maybe! Still a great time though my attitude is pretty much "any time is a great time" for starting something.
Now is the perfect time for this.
For starters it takes years to sell into government any way. If he writes his first line of code today they might have a sellable product ready in a year. Then getting FEDRAMP accredited and going through procurement cycles probably another year or so.
I think the current administration is likely open to technology-first solutions to reduce friction in government, and the next administration is likely going to have to take a similar approach too.
Thank you!
We're 100% remote in that we don't have offices anywhere in the world, you can work from home etc.
However we're focusing our hiring on specific hubs including Colorado (we actually don't mind which city / town you live in within Colorado), and Brazil (with some emphasis on Florianopolis.
We have team mates all over the world, so we're not totally opposed to folks coming from wherever but it's not without its overhead: regulatory burden in needing to register and pay taxes in all of these jurisdictions, impacts on ability to get together for offsites in central locations etc.
So yes, we're fully remote but for these roles we have a strong bias for people in Colorado or Brazil.

And every county is slow walking the actual issuance. I would be surprised if there has been any material increase in CCW issuance in the last 180 days.
It's the latter.

There's a difference between illegal and shitty.
Shitty = you ask your neighbour not to point their cameras at your house, and they ignore you. Seems unnecessary.
Def sounds like shitty behaviour from your neighbours.
In terms of decreasing crime I live in Oakland in a duplex. Downstairs was empty and crooks broke in and stole a bunch of stuff over several hours earlier this year. We only had a camera doorbell for our upstairs unit and I have footage of one of the crooks walking around the corner with a crowbar, seeing the camera and immediately turning around and walking away. The camera was a huge deterrent for them and I believe the only reason our upstairs didn't get broken into where we were fast asleep.
We now have cameras on every door + a floodlight in the backyard.
Thankfully in this particular case folks like CARLA are helping fund lawsuits to force municipalities to play ball.
How much of that first $1m was mid-market/enterprise vs lots of smaller plans?
