* Tell us why you think you are a good fit
|
|
I believe that product quality should be the main focus. Stripe seems to be a place that respects that.
|
|
* Why do you want to work here
|
|
The product is good and it has actual real useful features to users.
|
|
I used to write somewhat "pointless" APIs that will probably not be called by a human user in the backend of JPMorgan's servers. But with Airtable's product, it is highly interactive and users love it. I would like to build something that people want to use too.

* whats something youre intellectually curious or passionate about
|
|
I love learning about things, pretty much anything. But mainly I am interested about artificial intelligence, physics, information theory philosophy and languages. I am very fascinated by links between seemingly distinct subjects such as AI, information theory and philosophy. For example, the idea of the Minimum Description Length in machine learning is talking about the same thing as Occam's Razor in Philosophy.
|
|
Also I love learning about the internal workings of anything, not just software. I spend lots of time experimenting and recreating things that I want to learn about. I have lots of hacker/DIY projects but one of the most interesting things I had done is to make cosmetics. I find that the price of cosmetic goods to be ridiculous and had thus tried looking at the ingredient list and textbooks to buy the raw materials to make them myself.

* explain how cookie works to retards
|
|
A web cookie is basically a short piece of information, 2 or 3 lines perhaps. It is often used as a unique identifier to keep track of something. For example it can be used to keep track of a user on the internet that move across many different sites.
|
|
It does this by sending the user a unique identifier. For example lets say a user, Kimberly51 logs in at www.abc.com. To prevent the need for the user to login every time it visits the same website. The website can give user a unique identifier like "MagnificientDragonBreath". So when a user revisits www.abc.com, it can just say the secret unique identifier "MagnificientDragonBreath" so that the website server knows that the user is Kimberly51 as it is assumed that only Kimberly51 knows the secret cookie. This is known as a session-cookie used for authentication. You might that that it could be possible for someone to randomly generate words as an attempt to impersonate someone else. But it is not possible as a real cookie would look something like this "adb9859735cd48fe652e431d56506a9a". There are just too many possible strings.
|
|
Cookies can not only be used for user authentication but for user tracking as well. For example, an advertising company may be interested in tracking the browsing habits of Kimberly51. Kimberly51 may have different usernames across different websites. But one thing that can stay constant is the unique cookie it has, so even when Kimberly51 goes to different sites and have different names, we know that it is the same user because it is able to give you the same exact secret cookie.
|
|
As you can see, a cookie is just a unique piece of information that is usually used to identify someone. But there are many different ways that you can use it for like authentication or tracking. You can think of some interesting ways to use cookies as well.
