[TriLUG] have a job - Python, Django, Postgres, Flask

See why it's so hard to find technical help these days?  Five replies 
about specific terms I used, and none that are actually about the job or 
the company.  What a bunch of nerds. [1]

Steve, if you know any old grey beards with two years of professional 
experience who want to learn and grow on a junior salary and don't think 
they're coming in as an architect, send 'em my way.

Middleware... yeah, that's ambiguous.  I interpret that to mean 
back-end business logic and database queries and stuff, but not the 
stuff below that like OS and drivers and performance tuning and 
what-not.  NOT Javascript and NOT device drivers, but stuff in between.

BitSight really is a good place to work.  It's hard to articulate that. 
A lot of companies are just the place to keep you busy and provide a 
paycheck.  BitSight hires people [2] that are interested in problems and 
that enjoy working on them, and that makes it a really fun environment.  
And management is very conscientious about which problems we solve now 
and which ones we defer and which ones we avoid, so our work is ALWAYS 
applicable and immediately impactful.  That really ranks it a lot higher 
than most other companies that I have worked at, and leaps and bounds 
above companies I have heard others talking about.
