LiveMap - https://livemap.ch/ - is a funded startup with a vision to build the next generation of mapping apps (think hyper-personalised Google Maps). How that looks is still being explored so we're building prototypes, getting them into customer hands and iterating quickly. We're looking to bring on a couple of people to help accelerate this development process.

As a data engineer you'll set up a data pipeline, work with product to identify relevant datasets, connect, persist and expose that data.

Working on the routing engine you'll extend off the shelf routing engines (Graphhopper) to take into account dynamic run-time preferences & attributes (think temporal).

Happy hacking

> Understanding remote work’s impact on mental health is important for workers deciding where to work

Remote work is not for everyone so if you are someone who predominantly makes their social connections in an office being forced to work remotely will have an impact.

However I think a lot who choose to work remotely have friends outside of work. I know this study focuses on those who live alone but it may also be very different for those who live with a partner/family/friends.

Anecdotally I have found that people who want social interaction in the office push for everyone in the office (rather selfishly in my opinion) because without enough people in - for example in a hybrid model - they don’t get the same kick.

Integrates a lot of agents (I use it with OpenRouter and directly with Pi) natively, is fast (you don't realise how laggy VSCode and its forks are).

Biggest disadvantage: lack of extensions. Lots of quality of life missing (e.g. gitignore integration to add/append gitignore files for different languages).

Is it to support local/European companies - Great. Is it because you don't want to be at risk of the US and the CLOUD Act - Not so great. Any company that has servers in the US (which Hetzner and basically all CDNs do) are still vulnerable to the CLOUD Act and that includes servers in Europe.

I find that a lot of my Claude usage goes unused and then when I'm coding or leaning on agents I hit a limit and have to wait. I don't like that dynamic. I do have Extra Usage enabled (with a cap) but then I'm spending more than the $100 I already do.

I'm learning that a lot of people seem to consistently stay within limits and that works for them but I was looking for something different for myself.

The real pain is that Anthropic don't easily quantify usage (which can now change over the day). How many tokens is it? Minimum? Maximum? I tried to quantify this with OpenTelemetry for a while but have decided to move to this more flexible setup.

Uses government IDs that a lot of people already have and saves signed credentials to your phone. There is a server element for the verification process but it runs all in-memory (follow the Mullvad model and not even have persistent storage in the servers).

It's fun. Get to practice mobile development (Flutter), use some local GPUs, learn about the changes to JWTs for signed, selective disclosure, Bitstrings for progressive disclosure lists etc.

Landing page is https://agora.gdn/ in case anyone wants to try a beta in the future.

Now I'm happy with agents as the models and harnesses have improved significantly but the token usage comes at a cost.

1. What do you use the hooks for?

2. Do you use an editor alongside the CLI to review code or only examine the diffs?

Sadly Zed seems to add 10% so it's still more worthwhile to use OpenRouter.

I like the option for different models that I just don't get with Claude Code. I want an IDE to monitor files and understand the code, not just see snippets (I know that there is still the Editor view in Cursor but with the push towards the Agent view I feel it's headed into a Conductor direction and personally I'm not ready for that).
