This past Sunday, we moved to an all-round better datacenter. With this move, we introduced more, faster, and newer servers to help you use Mineful more efficiently.
The move was an ordeal. It took 2 hours longer than expected, but we got home around midnight happy that Mineful is now running smoothly in its new home. You can see from the photos below how much fun Jose and I had.
It’s time to take Mineful to the next level! We are looking for a talented software engineer to join our team in Downtown Chicago. Join Mineful from the early stages and leave a mark in the product. Your contributions will not go unnoticed.
