Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2014)

Hm, that page doesn't provide a PGP key for the iwanttohack address, neither is there one on pgp.mit.edu. :( I do find two keys of you personally on pgp.mit.edu, 0x1DBE9880 from 1999 with an mit.edu address and 0x6BA33506 from 2000 with a mindspring.com address, but none with a duckduckgo.com address. Typically public keys that old without a contemporary e-mail address are no longer in use and the corresponding private key has often been lost.

It would be nice if you could make a new key available (RSA with 3072 or 4096 bit) for either the iwanttohack address or your own address, and preferrably link to it on your hiring page. It would underscore your privacy credo and help you stand out from the crowd. (Sadly, even here in the HN Who's Hiring thread, few people have a PGP key and even fewer include it in their job postings.)
