UrbanStems (https://urbanstems.com) | Washington, DC or New York, NY | ONSITE preferred

Fast and beautiful flowers at affordable prices. We're growing and need a highly skilled JavaScript (Node) developer to come help us build stuff quicker. Our backend is almost fully powered by Node. The position requires someone who can adapt and thrive under pressure. Some of the backend is being moved to micro-services but we're not planning to go overboard with it. You'll be the third engineer (joining me and another person) and employee #15 so you'll have a huge impact on not only the tech but the company itself. We're passionate about making our customers happy and know that our tech plays a big part of that process. Come join us!

Most of the work requires backend knowledge:

* JavaScript (NodeJS) application development

* Postgres, Redis

* API development

* nginx/AWS/DevOps (some base knowledge, at the very least)

This is not a front-end position. Please email me at chetan@urbanstems.com. I definitely value seeing your past work over a standard resume but feel free to send it along.
Why would I want to contribute to a society that punishes starving artists trying to complete their masterpiece?
I'd agree with that. Maybe from the 1st gen to the 3rd?

Cool, I'm going to give that a try! We tried the ZXing scanner initially. It was able to scan it, but had trouble interpreting the contents -it kept trying to map it to a non-existent UPC code.
I don't know why someone changing the font in their logo should ever be HN's top news item. There is definitely more interesting stuff going on in tech this week.

FYI The smiley only makes it worse. Brad Frost has recently written a post about how important it is to write user-friendly error messages ( https://medium.com/@thomasfuchs/how-to-write-an-error-messag... ). If Chrome is required, at least tell me why.
I was so disappointed that every color picker website nowadays uses flash/zeroclipboard to only copy HEX color value (6 letters!). It's so slow and inefficient. I ended up making my own one using this clipboard API - http://0xrgb.com

Glad to see that FF now supports this API, too!
Code Platoon - Chicago, IL - Ruby Instructor

Code Platoon is a nonprofit coding bootcamp serving veterans. Looking for a Ruby on Rails instructor to teach, in-person, part or all of our 16-week classroom session, starting in January of 2016.

Here's the description: http://codeplatoon.org/jobs
Quote: "The more you care about the outcome, the harder it feels to achieve." This was great to read, thanks for posting it. It focuses more on anxiety. I agree it's more juicy but I think the original article talks about a slightly different topic.
I'm not sure in what setting would Erlang be inappropriate, but somehow Elixir would be fine. Elixir actually adds a further layer of complication compared to Erlang, which is a straightforward pattern matching, expression-based language with recursion and polymorphic functions for looping and conditionals.

Elixir looks Ruby-ish, but that illusion breaks down very quickly since the underlying semantics are anything but. Not to mention Elixir doesn't shield you from having to be aware of the Erlang runtime, the VM and OTP.
Zotero | Remote | Full-Time

Honest question, why the need to apologize for being a former Windows admin?
Evolving the Google Identity
It's a tall order because you set it up to be. Real system design would call for a balancing act, as usual. Remember that you can put a bunch of GC's on one FPGA that all run concurrently with access to shitloads of I/O and/or fast memory bus. Amdahl's law shouldn't kick in any more than with concurrent GC's in general. The parallelism, simplicity, and tech like in your link should make it faster than an on-board collector. The concept isn't speculation as it's already been done in two different ways:

Fine-Grained Parallel Compacting Garbage Collection through Hardware-Supported Synchronization (2010)
http://www.ikr.uni-stuttgart.de/Content/Publications/Archive...

Stall-free, real-time collector for FPGA's (2012)
http://researcher.watson.ibm.com/researcher/files/us-bacon/B...

The question is, "Can modern CPU's and off-chip FPGA's keep in sync without performance getting dragged down?" The FPGA's have gotten faster. The CPU's I/O have gotten faster. So, I'm sure it can be done but it might be difficult enough to be someone's Master thesis. ;)

Besides, I call for replacing current chips with open ones easy to modify for acceleration and security. Gaisler LEON4 SPARC, Rocket RISC-V, Cambrige's BERI/CHERI MIPS64... these all come to mind. Plan was to put them onto a high-end FPGA w/ concurrent GC's to test the scheme. Once it worked, ASIC conversion time baby. S-ASIC's are $200-500k on average with resulting production & packaging being way cheaper after that. Just hoping there's a few companies that would split the cost to eliminate most memory and control flow issues forever. ;)
> "the rational action is not to play"

The rational action is not to attempt a short-term play. Having one side of your two-sided trade broken is a very bad outcome.

But if you're making a long-term play, that consideration is irrelevant. There's no "other side" of the trade for you to match up with. If you get an asset at 0.5X and then don't sell it and then the exchange breaks the trade, you get your money back and you're no worse off than when you started. But if you happen to grab an asset at 0.5X and the exchange doesn't break the trade, then you gained an asset for half of what it's worth. Now you've got a great asset in your portfolio, only you have twice as much as you should have been able to afford. That's a great move!
The video reminds me of [EPIC 2014](http://idorosen.com/mirrors/robinsloan.com/epic/).
You are probably right about the tech-induced skew.

If a social-studies/economy research reads this, please research this subject... I don't know how it could be done, but it seems very interesting!

Hipmunk

San Francisco, CA - close to Caltrain

Experienced frontend, backend, full stack, iOS, Android, devops, and data engineers.

http://www.hipmunk.com/jobs

We're a high-standards group with a lot of pride in our products, code, and people. We understand consumer scale and data (Reddit co-founder & engineers) and aspire to build products that customers love. We've had success due to this, consistently getting 4-5 star reviews on app/play stores and net promoter scores at or above the best in the tech industry.

We're friends and work hard to enable folks to do their best work. Processes are light and trust is high. At 35 engineers we're not so big where you can't know everyone well and have an impact, but not so small where it's chaos and you don't have anyone to learn from. We value learning and growth (and not having bored people) and invest regular time in doing so. For example, every other Friday is open time for you to do stuff that helps you be a better engineer.

We're looking for folks that love all of the above and will help us keep our standards high. You can go to www.hipmunk.com/jobs if you're interested!
"How do we get to hope from here?"
Yes! My pre coffee memory failed me. Thanks.
I wonder if whatever they're doing in Mongo was really not doable or viable in Postgres?
But perhaps a bit better than the '90s? It's uncluttered but everyone knows they shouldn't use <blink> and <marquee>.
People with more money do more of everything... they have more fun, more sex partners, better sex, more entertaining lives, more meaningful lives, more profound moments, more meaningful relationships, and make more of an impact on humanity.

This is not a value judgment. Having access to resources means having more freedom. That's freedom to do what you want, to think about what matters, to exercise, to eat healthy, to take time off to spend with friends, to participate in humanity rather than just working to meet your basic needs.

All this is trivially true or full of counterexamples depending on where you draw the line between rich and non-rich.
RealScout - Rails Engineers/Javascript Engineers/Data Engineers/Data Scientists - Mountain View, CA - Full-time

Here's a bit more info on the design process:

https://design.google.com/articles/evolving-the-google-ident...
Holo was supposed to be the unified Android design for all time, and it barely lasted two years. Even after the "Material" thing, Google has inconsistently applied it's supposed golden standard, and some Material elements, like the FAB, have actually been REMOVED from Google Keep in favor of the more Holo-esque bottom action bar, for example.

Material Design will probably be suddenly replaced by something with an equally trendy name when Google needs more PR.

No, they are automatically classifying photos. If you have photos in Google Photos, you can try it out with words such as "forest", or "dog", or "grill". It's pretty cool and scary at the same time :-)
Can old world be more modern than new school?
First world problems...

Seriously though, how much of this is a result of new players in the content industry (Netflix, YouTube, Amazon, Hulu), and how much is simply a pendulum swing back from all the unscripted "reality tv" crap that the major networks pumped out in the 2000's?

I wouldn't take that phrase too literally. I take it to mean that she wants them to actually land a rocket (not necessarily on all feet with no bounce). The other attempts were "landings", but they blew up. Bounce or no, if they land the rocket upright, I think that's sticking it.

I think they just don't worry about it. Some Google sites still look like they did six years ago. They just make sure their big sellers that they're currently marketing look new.

EDIT: Can someone tell me how this comment is somehow objectionable? It's not like every app they publish on the Play Store or every site they have at *.google.com is using Material.

If you dive into the details there's a ton of disclaimers, limitations, and gotchas running without the C wire. See [0] amongst others. As I said above, I do not recommend.

Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD. This is definitely one of those cases. If you want your Nest to be running problem free on most systems (or any other smart thermostat for that matter), just assume you need the C.

Oh I didn't know that ...I guess that is what you get when you think about things without studying them first. Those ideas are probably latent in lots of things I've read which is why I picked up on them so easily
