Consider this a job offer to work at 42Floors
Dear 42 Floors: why exactly do you think you need rockstar software talent? Your execution is obviously phenomenal, but it's not like you need a team of <del>haskell/clojure ninjas</del> grizzled enterprise vets who know how to tackle ridiculous complexity of integrating dozens of services against ever changing requirements.<p>edit: all i'm trying to say is there are top 90% devs, and 99% devs, and 99.9% devs... not exactly sure that 42Floors needs them. if they did need them, they wouldn't be saying things like<p><pre><code>    > We can't compete with Google or Facebook on salary. We  
    > can't compete with being a founder on equity. So the most  
    > important thing I have left is my ability to commit to an  
    > individual employee's personal development
</code></pre>
99.9ers don't need you for personal development. Sounds like they're trying to get young potential while its cheap. Nothing wrong with that, but when we discuss it, we should say it like it is.<p>by the way, I quit my 90% job to do hacker/school this summer, I intend to come out a 99er with mad functional programming chops, looking to join a team of 99.9ers so i can someday become one.
