I thought I was the only one :) To be honest, the main reason I started scrolling through the comments is because I wanted to check if someone else heard it in their head too.

WHY US?
Our goal is to develop a Deep Learning platform to prevent the wastage of water, our planet's most essential natural resource. We are looking for somebody who knows how to get things done. If we end up liking each other, this could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship!
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW?
A couple of things to note about this role:
- Experience with a backend framework like Django
- Experience with a frontend framework like AngularJS
- Our stack is built using a combination of Python and Javascript, so familiarity with these languages is necessary
- Working knowledge of databases (Postgres, MongoDB, Influx)
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
- We like solving hard problems. You will be working on cutting edge data science problems.
- Since you will be one of the first few people in the company, you will have a tremendous impact on our strategy and culture.
- You’ll have the opportunity to drive the architecture and design of our platform. Since this work is largely self-driven, you’ll have the opportunity to get really hands-on.

Not to belittle DigitalOcean's growth, but AWS is a mammoth compared to all other services. The percentage growth may not be the best metric to compare AWS and DigitalOcean. Let's see how DigitalOcean makes use of that $37M.
I would go for the second job. I personally think that developing your overall skills takes precedence over company name and job safety, especially during the initial stages of your career. I don't think it would be that much of a learning experience if you are not allowed to make design decisions.
When you say "real office environment", you are actually referring to big corporate environment. A startup environment needs you to do much more than a structured corporate environment where you will always have somebody to bail you out. As long as you have a rock solid description of what you did at the startup, I think it would actually work in your favor in the long term.
Working remotely may have a small effect on future interviews, but it's negligible -- you can just focus on your work ethic, since you would have been able to produce design/code without someone eyeing over your shoulder.
I'm going to have to echo whichdan's sentiments in that working remotely will separate you from the networking and social side of things. You need to have something else in mind (hackathons, meetups, other social type things) because you don't have the social aspects of work if you choose #2.
The features look nice and it appears to be a good way to get babysitters at the last minute. When it comes to babysitters, the biggest problem is trust! No matter how secure it sounds, parents will still be skeptical to leave their children with a stranger. If you go above and beyond to address the trust issue in a way that can appease the concerned parents, I think this definitely has potential.
The Softcover sales platform includes a marketing page with slots for author bio, testimonials, FAQs, etc. (See, for example, Mark Bates's marketing page at http://conqueringthecommandline.com/) Softcover also supports an optional free HTML version of your book, which can be a great marketing tool. Finally, we are planning to develop a step-by-step "Marketing Wizard" to give authors detailed advice and guidance in their marketing efforts.
Do authors have the option of providing a book preview for free online rather than the entire thing? Or does that feature only allow for the entire book to be made free online?
Yes, Softcover has integrated support for making downloadable previews. In addition, currently the HTML version has to be either 100% free or 100% behind a paywall, but we plan to add the capability to make select HTML preview chapters available as well.
Good point! The research group is still working on refining their system. So may be they will have another breakthrough in a year or two, you never know!
