(OFF-TOPIC) - Why are so many jobs downvoted here? Are people downvoting other listings to make their own listings higher ranked? Are there some controversies surrounding the downvoted companies I'm unaware of? (if so please post a link below the job asking for the poster to give feedback on the issue)

Currently there are no downvoted jobs, but there are several that have apparently been killed by the dupe detector.

Ah that makes a lot of sense. I believe a couple were actually downvoted before (they weren't dead) but looks to be fixed.

Los Angeles, CA - elarm.com - Full Time

At elarm, we're building the next-generation of home security. The clunky, low-tech alarm systems available today haven't changed in twenty years. We're creating a beautiful device you don't just need, but actually want to own: wireless, android-powered, easy to use, and designed for smartphones and video surveillance. And it's been built from the ground up as a consumer electronics product - so you can buy it, open up the box and set it up yourself in just a few minutes.

We spent the last year hard at work and just finished raising a large seed round to help transform our prototype into a real shipping product. Come join us and help us launch!

We're hiring for the following positions:

- Rails / Web Developer

- Mobile App Developer (iOS or Android)

- Linux / Embedded Hardware Guru

We can offer competitive salary, meaningful equity, and a chance to work on something that will become an intimate part of people's lives.
