Listening.io | Flutter | San Francisco, 50% remote | Full Time or Freelance
Salary: $90k to $135k (or hourly equivalent)
Equity: 0.5% to 2%
Overview -
Listening.io is "Audible for Education". We turn educational materials, like textbooks & research papers, into audiobooks. We're growing fast, and are looking to hire a Flutter engineer.
Our entire team is technical, with no middle managers. You'll get to play with some of the latest technologies in your day-to-day work, including GPT-4 and text-to-speech APIs.
Finally, you'll also own a big piece of equity in a fast-growing, VC-backed startup.
Requirements -
You'll need to be able to single handedly own everything in the mobile app. That means we're looking for someone with a lot of Flutter experience, including fully developing every part of an app.
Although 95% of the work is in Flutter, we do need to bridge into native code ~5% of the time. So we're looking for experience in Flutter, as well as Swift, Kotlin, and native development (XCode / Android Studio).
This is a 50% in person position, so it's local to the SF Bay Area.
Question: Why can't we go faster than the speed of light?
Answer: This is a misconception. The speed of light is the maximum speed at which information can be transmitted. It is not the maximum speed at which objects can move. Objects can move faster than light, and in fact, they do. For example, the speed of light is about 300,000 km/s, but the speed of a jet airplane is about 1,000 km/s, which is much faster.
You can't prevent someone from sending funds to a crypto address.
An address of an insolvent company may not be able to legally return funds; i.e. once they receive funds they may have a fiduciary duty to distribute them in a certain way, for example by order of a bankruptcy court.
tl;dr: They may only be able to ask people not to deposit, but not prevent them from depositing. And if users do deposit, they might not be allowed to give it back.
