Collective Health, ( http://collectivehealth.com/ ), San Mateo, CA (Full time, ONSITE only)

We're tackling the employer-sponsored healthcare industry (our favorite analogy is how Tesla takes on several verticals at once, such car makers, dealers as well as the oil industry). We can lower both the first and second derivative of the rising health care cost curve, nationwide. There's some compelling evidence we can do so, if you'd like to chat.

The company just under a year and half old but growing very rapidly. We punch well above our weight-class with experienced founders, ~100 team members (~ one quarter is engineering), and paying customers.

We've got a ton of interesting problems to solve around distributed systems, data analytics and predictions, complex data modeling, ultra high-availability, security, privacy and more. We're currently looking for experienced SW engineers up and down the stack, back end, infrastructure, data, dev ops, test, generalist, etc.

Our tech stack is a mix of Go and Java components with Angular on the front end. We use a custom service bus to tie our SOA together, microservices style. We love Docker, CoreOS, postgres, riak, automated testing, and continuos integration.

As a company, we're strong believers in transparency, trust and balance. As an engineering team, we believe good code is easy to read and should have a short "time to understanding". We expect all of our engineers to continually teach as well as learn. We also believe that everyone should write good code, yet balance that against the need to ship.

All open jobs: http://grnh.se/8f7q15

If you are non-technical, but are interested in experiencing a hyper-growth startup, we also are hiring for operations, business development and other roles as well.

We're super proud of the company mission, engineering culture and tech stack we've put together and would love a chance to explain it all in detail!
> To be fair, high-end nokia did already have "open mobile internet" available.

Not really sure this is relevant. Apple forced the carriers to change their business models -- first AT&T and then the others; Nokia et al just played along. I was really disappointed that Google did not persevere with selling their own phone -- there was this shining moment where it looked like Apple and Google would unite to tear down the carriers; I think Google's shying away from customer service may well prove pivotal -- e.g. it's going to be hard to sell cars if you don't do customer service.

People often point out that Apple doesn't really understand the cloud or that Amazon's forays into hardware have been at best mixed. Maybe. Google -- alone of its rivals -- doesn't understand end-users (its customers are advertisers). Which is more important in the long run? (Bezos may suck as a boss, but Amazon's customer service is first-rate.)

8tracks | San Francisco | full time| ONSITE preferred | http://8tracks.com/jobs

Do you feel there should be a better way for people to find and enjoy the limitless spectrum of music created by mankind, much of which is now available online in some form -- if you know where to look? Do you love 8tracks but think the product could be even better?

8tracks is the best place for people who care about music to create and consume playlists. Its crowd curated platform offers unprecedented depth and relevancy in a "lean back" fashion -- spanning every imaginable style, activity or mood -- and an unmatched opportunity for music discovery, with less repetition and a uniquely human touch.

8tracks ranks #3 in the US among internet radio listeners aged 18-34 (after Pandora and iHeartRadio) and reaches 8m MAU who stream 30m hours/month. Two-thirds of the music streamed on 8tracks hails from Independent artists and labels, and two-thirds of the music streamed is delivered to iOS and Android devices. Supported primarily by advertising sales, the business has operated at or near profitability for the last 3 years. Founded in 2008, 8tracks is backed by Index Ventures and Andreessen Horowitz, with offices in Mission Dolores (SF) and the Flatiron District (NYC).

Obviously this signifies that the whole "don't be evil" approach has been tossed into the memory hole.
Maybe having everything trashed during the World Wars (plus other interesting times like hyper-inflation) instilled conservatism in the common psyche.

It's funny how so many development communities feel like they need to start over and create an entire new framework.

Perl 6, PHP 6 (which was never released), the disaster that is Python 2/3 (many standard libraries were renamed breaking a ton of libraries, and now Angular.

PHP, which is hated by many here because it isn't hip, at least allows you to run 4 code on the 5 interpreter with no issues.

When Microsoft did this with VB back in the 90s, which caused DLL hell, the community raged. Now it's a normal part of development.

I feel like it's only about the money. Many open source communities make money on support only and can charge companies lots of money to make the shift. It also means tutorials, books, speaking engagements, etc.

But value types do let you group fields (with sub-component values).

Also, I've noticed that whenever I say Java does X, you say, "Oh, no! It does X - ε!" Now, to me, that's nitpicking, especially considering that a perfect general-purpose language/runtime designed to be simple (for some definition of simple) should give you 90+% performance in 99% of general-purpose use cases (or 95% in 95% etc.). If it does any better then one of two possibilities is true: 1/ it's magic, or 2/ it's not a perfect simple language/runtime because it could have been made simpler (by whatever definition of simple it's chosen).

Anyone who can't settle for anything less than 100% performance or does something that's outside 95% of the use cases knows not to use such a general-purpose language/runtime, and, instead, uses a more domain-specific language/runtime or one that's not designed to be simple.
I tried two generations of Windows Mobile devices. Aside from anything else their battery life was abysmal, and when they ran out of juice they failed pretty catastrophically.
Yes, but my goals are more modest for the near term. I have a better chance of pulling of a "life style business" in the 6-8 digit yearly revenue which is what I'm working on now. Small team, unsexy and reliable market.

The billions come into play after that, when I start investing into infrastructure and community services. I figure I could hit that mark in 30 years, well probably a lot less considering inflation, but then we'll all want to be trillionaires.

These cases are in the Eastern District of Texas. EDTX allows plaintiffs to choose their judge. Judge Gilstrap does not believe in the precedential validity of Alice v. CLS Bank and prohibits defendants from making motions based on it unless he specifically invites them, which he doesn't do.

And that judge gets about one fourth of all patent cases in the country.

The Federal Circuit abolished the law (still on the books but null and void) that required patent litigation to be brought in the district where a defendant was accused of infringing and allowed cases to be brought anywhere the plaintiff likes. Rep. Gilmore in the House of Representatives has introduced a bill, the Innovation Act, that would restore a weaker version of that statute, until the CAFC abolishes it again.

Hey, UI Router lead dev here. I'm interested in any & all feedback people have regarding Component Router vs. UI Router, what they like/don't like, and whether or how much they'd like to see UI Router support for Angular 2.
Except the language is designed around this - for example, trying to get a value from a dictionary in Python doesn't return `None` if it doesn't exist, it throws an exception.

I'm not saying static typing has no value, but there are benefits to dynamic typing, and Python embraces its dynamic typing and is designed around it, so none of the problems given in the article really apply.

Sure, thank you for this notice. There's one interesting scientific research about it, which I read before http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00.... As you can see there's no simple yes or no.

But another very good example is a book of Garry Kasparov "How life imitates chess", where he explains how it can be transparently connected with each other.

In my opinion chess can be used as a model of real life and if someone wants to learn something useful from it, he can get it.

I agree. Material design to me seemed like a great step as well. The different looks between Google products didn't seem so bad till they started to move everything over to material design and I realized how fragmented the previous designs were. Didn't even see the problem till it was fixed. slow clap

Green Hills Software http://www.ghs.com/ @ Santa Barbara, CA

# Embedded Software Consultant [ONSITE, VISA]

We're hiring for multiple teams, both in Santa Barbara and worldwide: http://www.ghs.com/jobs.html , but I'll put in a plug for my own team of Embedded Software Consultants. We're called the "support" department, but we don't field calls about "my cup holder is broken." We're much more likely to have someone turn compile 20K lines of C++ code with optimizations for the first time and have them tell us there's a bug in the compiler; but in reality their program has some undefined behavior that happens to behave differently with optimizations on -- and it's our job to find it! (Once we discovered that the code needed three volatile keywords added, on two lines of code!)

If you thrive on troubleshooting software problems and designing creative solutions, enjoy learning about new technology, and want to jump in and save customers in desperate need of a hero, this is the job for you!

Job Requirements:

* Learn and understand the inner workings of complex software systems

* Quickly diagnose technical problems with limited information

* Succinctly explain complex technical concepts to experts from other technical domains

* At least 2 years experience programming in high-level languages, C, and C++

To apply please email your resume to jobs@ghs.com.

I'm open for different kinds of opportunities since I'm an observer/learner/thinker/doer;)
They actually give a reason why they changed it in the blog post. Saying that the old one was designed for desktops and the new one is meant to scale better (for things like watches and phones I'd guess).

Edit: to add from their design blog[0], the new logo can be sent to a client in 305 bytes of compressed SVG (vs 14,000 bytes for the old logo). So it helps with lower bandwidth. The design post also mentions scaling of the logo.

Why not? According to a random page I found on the internet, kerosene has a coefficient of thermal expansion of 0.00099 per Kelvin. If you can cool it by 50 degrees then you'll be able to store about 5% more fuel in the same volume of tank, which is a nice little upgrade.
Hmm... the spacing between the letters in "Goo" seems optically wider than the spacing between "gle". But it might be just me.
Uncharitably, I'd say the old logo looked much more professional, and so didn't jive with Google's corporate ethos of "seem as much like a preschool as humanly possible". The new one definitely fits better in that respect.
