Hi Evert - Director of Engineering @ Wave here - I didn't see your application in our system. Would you mind submitting again?


Hi Ash,

Thank you for the follow-up. I tried again this morning but received the same error when submitting.

A few more details about what I am seeing. The errors states that 'Whoops! Desired Salary is required' however I have filled out all of the fields including the desired salary level. My first thought was that this was a parsing issue since I had included a dollar sign and a comma in my answer. Removing those didn't seem to make a difference though.

Thanks for the help, Evert

Is there a best contact email to use when sending suggestions or questions regarding the Wave UX and functionality? I tried using Wave a few years ago but gave up. I just checked it out again and would like to send some feedback as I work through the current offering.

Basically if you modify data in a transaction, add a task to the queue that relies on that data, and the worker pulls the task off the queue BEFORE the transaction is committed, then the task tries to access data that doesn't exist in the database yet.



Theses are old keys; I will have them removed from repository though.


I think part of the problem is also that Backbone made some backwards incompatible changes as the framework developed. I found that a lot of the backbone tutorials were out of date - the &Yet blog had a bunch of good tutorials but were quickly out of date, and the posts were never revisited.
