I suppose big and small countries are like big and small businesses. The large ones have more resources but move much more slowly.

Python/Full-Stack | UtilityAPI.com | Oakland, CA | ONSITE | Solar Job

=Description=

We are a white-label SaaS that is used by solar and energy efficiency companies to collect their customer's utility bill and usage data automatically. We write scripts that collect data from utilities, and these scripts can break unexpectedly when utilities change their interfaces, so being able to update them quickly is important. You will be working in our office at the SfunCube in downtown Oakland alongside me and our other two software engineers. Our codebase is well organized, documented, and tested.

=Jobs=

* Full-Stack Engineer - You will be writing application code and helping maintain/optimize/scale the stack. At least 6 years of Python and Linux sysadmin experience required.

* Python Developer - You will be writing tools, scripts, and libraries that collect/parse utility data (pdfs, html, xml, csv, etc.) from utilities. At least 1 year of Python experience required.

=How To Apply=

Email me, Daniel Roesler, a cover letter and a PGP-encrypted pdf resume. Please include links to your github, bitbucket, or personal side project website (for reference, mine is daylightpirates.org). You must already be able to work in the U.S.

=For Solar Skeptics=

In the last few years, the solar industry reached "grid parity", which means that the unsubsidized installed cost is now cheaper than buying power from the grid. That's why this industry is the fastest growing industry in the country. This isn't some subsidy-dependent industry anymore. We work hard and we make real money (while conveniently also saving the planet).

Not for startups. For larger institutions with unions etc. sure, but startups aren't regulated very tightly, it's easy to hire and fire too.

You can start a company in less than a week. All digital.
I was responding to the original claim that a distribution channel requires capital or connections, which from my own experience is a false statement.

You are right that free advertising requires work like engaging in the community, but all startups require a considerable amount of work, and if you have a little bit of online savviness engaging with a community is very easy.

I know that from the time I went from $0 to $10,000 MRR I spent about $100 in online advertising, and I know countless other businesses that have done the same. Maybe if your plan is to create the next Facebook it is harder, but if you have a high quality niche startup, being able to effectively and cheaply advertise yourself for free is hardly an exception. You can always broaden your scope later.

Many tech companies seem to be rolling out new designs at an increasing rate rate.

A bit of a side note, but I've recently been pondering for how long material design will stay with us. I'd guess when the developer for that last Jelly Beanish app in my phone has finally made the switch, Google releases their new design guidelines and the process begins again...

Education is a fantastic application for this - there are lots of nice touches, like highlighting elements of the DOM in the preview window when you click on them in the editor. The code completion also pops up lots of options for tags and attributes which could make exploring a lot easier for young students.

I'm also excited to use it for doing technical interviews with front-end devs. Curious to see how it stacks up with Codepen, JSFiddle, etc.

Ioflo: Automated Reasoning Engine and Flow Based Programming Framework
Money is a tool, sure, but it is the Universal Tool. It can be applied toward nearly every problem in business. Can people still mess up and misuse the tool? Sure. It success a better bet if you have access the Universal Tool? Most definitely.

We can come up with counterexamples all day long, but the question is not whether an individual can succeed without much money or can fail with a ton of money -- I know people that fall into both camps as well -- the question is in aggregate does more money shift the overall curve toward success in entrepreneurship over time?

I'd bet big that it does.
EBay was wonderful, like most services it started off with normal people buying and selling their junk or stuff. Then you have sellers coming in to "make a living" on Ebay flooding the market with retail priced items. You've got buyers coming in who don't pay. These are hard problems to solve and have hurt other platforms. I have lots of stuff to sell, but I'm not sure I'd turn to EBay and have to compete with the flood of actual junk.

Pinterest has so much marketing spam now it is painful.
Etsy has turned to the mass production sellers to turn up profits.

Increasing the bid when a bid is places is infuriating, if you want that stuff go to the penny bidding sites. Sniping only happens if you didn't set your bid to a level you were comfortable paying. If someone goes over that bid then you aren't out anything you weren't ready to part with.

> I still give the Nest away to family members and friends because of how simple it is to use.

The tap through menus are anything but pleasant. Just watch this video:

https://youtu.be/YD3DfoJ3TVw?t=7m24s

To use a phone analogy it is like using a Nokia 3100 to write text messages, tap tap tap A, tap tap tap B, tap tap tap C. You have to do this literally in some cases to set the name.

Contrast that with this:

https://youtu.be/CmvX6YgAqMI?t=1m18s

To use the phone analogy once again, this is like using an iPhone to write text messages.

One is a modern accessible UX not dissimilar from a smartphone, the other is clunky and dated, you're working around limitations of the physical design.

> Does the Honeywell integrate with your utility to provide you rebates if you use their load shedding program?

Neither the Nest or Honeywell do.

> Does it have AirWave, integrate with Google Now, an API

It is a thermostat. It might have some of these, but they're beyond the scope of what I expect or would use from either one.

It does offer history, most smart thermostats do.

> Nest second place in the market. Puh-lease!

That's what people said about Blackberry too. I think touchscreen interfaces are a proven technology that consumers love.

The Nest could come back from this, they can offer additional product lines that address what their competitors are doing.

Some people legitimately do want a minimalist product. There is a real market for that. Others want a straight forward product with an iPad-like UX.

2008 HN discussion from when the outgoing "little blue g" favicon was introduced:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=211518

In it, Dustin Curtis criticizes Google (rather rightly, in my hindsight-enhanced opinion) for a Marissa-Mayeresque design process of "Make 300 logo variants with pseudorandom permutations, and then pick your favorite." Looking at those permutations now (http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7ZYqYi4xigk/SEnK37orPGI/AAAAAAAAAp...) it's obvious (again, with the benefit of hindsight) that they were all very inside-the-box. Apparently nobody even considered trying a different font.

This pg comment from that thread turned out to be particularly insightful, given today's news: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=211649
I think you're right. I made a comment below about Jimi Hendrix. It's debatable how much "natural ability" he had, i.e., he wasn't one of those rare prodigies who picks up the guitar at age 3 and can instinctually make it sound good.

But what's not debatable is his overarching love of the guitar and obsession with learning everything he could to play it better.

The move in the center of intellectual gravity from Java/C# to Javascript puts me in mind of Guy Steele's quote about Java, back in the day: "We were not out to win over the Lisp programmers; we were after the C++ programmers. We managed to drag a lot of them about halfway to Lisp."

I think Javascript moves those Java programmers halfway further to Lisp. And while the Common Lisp revival movement sort of petered out, Racket (which is honestly much better than Common Lisp to my tastes) is still trucking along and might be poised to be the next step for a generation of programmers who've absorbed the Javascript mindset.

Just when I thought we might be starting to pivot away from flat design - does anyone know of a different design paradigm that is being used by smaller/fringe designers who are tired of flat/minimal UX/UI?
I'd say that non-sql databases did indeed explode in popularity, so this does get the nod. However, I think the prediction may have gone a little too far. Have they surpassed relational databases?

I'm getting the impression that a lot of people are reconsidering the "nosql" approach, as well, sticking with (or reverting to) sql databases, including simple ol' mysql. This was an interesting interview that showed up on HN a few days ago.

https://medium.com/s-c-a-l-e/github-scaling-on-ruby-with-a-n...

I was never all that enthusiastic about "nosql", partly because personality wise, I tend to be reluctant about new technologies, and I liked a system based on relational algebra, all that. That said, "nosql" wasn't really meant as a NO to sql. I get the feeling that the term got away from them a bit, largely because "you-know-sometimes-there-really-are-better-solutions-than-sql-for-some-problems-and-you-might-want-to-consider-them" isn't really an option as a catch phrase.

That said, nosql absolutely did grow massively in popularity, it did move from the fringes to mainstream use, so as a prediction, yeah, I'd agree this should score a few points.
