You guys aren't flooded with volunteers like the Bernie campaign is? Hm. Wrong candidate then, I work for free (aka socialism!) for Bernie. #BernieOrBust

You've posted a bunch of off-topic, trollish comments in the Who Is Hiring thread. Not cool.

These threads get up to a thousand comments, pushing the limits of what's usable on HN. The last thing we need more of is pointless provocation. People come here to find out about jobs, are perfectly able to make up their own minds, and should be left alone to.

> and cultural fit. To me, this immediately reeks age discrimination. Maybe not others but something to think about. If it's not age discrimination, it certainly would then lead me to think race/creed. Which I do not think is the case, because there's certainly no concerns there with outsourcing in general. But age, yes, as younger employees are more susceptible to social pressures in working over the 8-hour workday.
