SEEKING WORK - Atlanta GA, USA - Remote only

I run a small Django shop focused on long term relationships with startups and small businesses looking to grow. Web applications, API's, automating painful business processes, and everything else you need to succeed.

I happily manage code repositories, test case development, server deployment, administration, monitoring, and full website development - all without any management or oversight needed. Point me at a business problem and I will help you automate / solve it.

Sanders is leading in NH, but is in a distant second in IA and nationally [1]. Unfortunately most of these polls include a hypothetical Biden run. Its not clear how much of his support would go to Clinton, but I assume at least half, given they are both establishment candidates.

There are big differences in the impact of misleading tests though.

For a TV, meh. It's a little more energy used, and financially barely is noticeable by the owner. When you're done it's essentially disposable.

For the cars though... oh wow. It hits taxation levels in some countries, and fuel cost everywhere. It hits resale value, which likely hits financing companies. It actually causes additional pollution in crowded cities. It crosses thresholds in which large swathes of the market would choose not to purchase the vehicle based on those numbers (business leases).

Everyone knows that advertised numbers are approximations based on ideal conditions on a very small sample. The question is really how misleading those approximations are, and what the impact is on the consumer and any third parties.

> I believe that Blow values ease-of-prototyping more than safety

That's not entirely accurate. Based on his talks, he likes frictionless development over jumping through hoops that may or may not result in a safer application. Considering how many lines of code game programmers pump out on a daily basis, even small pain points can cause huge delays over a 2+ year dev cycle. Lines of code per day is a larger concern than safety for most games.

It's important to think about this when crafting sales incentive plans... You will often be tempted to motivate a particular behavior but then you realize that behavior is so successful that it's actually caused a new, and potentially worse problem.

Generally these are all good problems to have though. :-)
There was the supposed Japanese "Gentleman's agreement" of 276 (286?)HP to keep the government off their backs.

There's also the common saying "German horses are stronger" because acceleration and dyno tests (long before the turbo 335) have shown them to be faster than they "should" be, in particular to certain American muscle cars. I'm not sure how much reality there is behind this, though.

Dumb question... what does the yubikey then do that a normal computer can't do? If you keep it plugged in, what security benefit does it have over storing (strong) passwords?
I have this experience probably about half the time I'm shopping on Amazon (which I do a lot of). If you look in the comments/reviews for many items there will be dozens of people saying e.g. "product shipped was not the product pictured", "only buy if the seller is so-and-so if you want a genuine product", "received a used/returned product", and on and on. I've taken to spending more and going out of my way to buy some things in retail stores, where I can at least be reasonably sure I'm not getting a counterfeit.
Given the general hackerish-nature of Go, it's perhaps not too much of a stretch to share with you my game Chakra, which is a variant of Go played on intersecting rings with a movement rule

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/chakraboardgame/chakra-...

We're working on an online playable version, which I'll share with HN once we have the kinks ironed out. It's a good hacker game, the core player group has barely scratched the surface of understanding the strategy involved in a good game. Decent AI target as well... sometimes I think about multi-dimensional versions of the game, which would be only of interest to AI, but perhaps the kind of thing they'd appreciate.
Indeed - the repeal of prohibition is what sent the mafia into the drug trade.
It could be argued that Trello will eventually be larger than either of these products, so I don't think the story has been completely told. I've used Jira as a manager in both a large and a small installation and hated it both times. It feels like 90s bug tracking system with huge forms and intractable workflows.

With that said, Spolsky (although I think a lot of his writing is fantastic) rarely addresses his mistakes.
I think it's because baordgames are happy to cater to smaller niches - they don't need big runs to break even. The number and veriety of new board games boggle the mind. And they're more sociable.
Ah, perhaps this is why I haven't found "vampire power draw" to be an issue. There's the trope that you should unplug all of your adapters when not in use, but I had a power strip full of 2x Apple laptop chargers, and various USB chargers from various manufacturers, all plugged into a Kill-A-Watt... which registers, effectively, 0 watts consumed over multiple days when nothing is plugged into the adapters.
Its EDTX, where the judges (and everyone else, including the local jury pool) have over time gotten more patent savvy, because of the propensity to file patent cases in that district.

Which is kind of the point of the "educating everyone" statement, as I understand it.
Managers are the ones that buy this stuff, not developers.
Why would that matter? They have your money either way, and op has an additional MIT degree, which I would imagine would only help one during a job search, likely boosting GA's placement rate stats.

"The kids were not only eating the food, but they were behaving well."

If you raise expectation (within reason), most kids if not all will rise up to that expectation. That's why New York fixes their broken windows, and why Tesla manufacturing plant is furnished like high-end office spaces.

Many companies and leaders can learn from this.
I'm not endorsing this program at all, but Bloc's Rails curriculum has students build a Reddit clone from the ground up. In fact, there's a wealth of free tutorials online for building Reddit-style sites. If all you're looking to build is the UI, I'm not sure you'd need much more than to tinker around with Bootstrap.

There's probably an even more advanced level of autocompletion that could be achieved. If I type this Swift code, how much autocompletion would I get?

let helloWorld = "hello world"

Basically, there needs to be an additional English word dictionary added to the process. And understanding camel case would be killer.
As far as technology related, I listen to Coding Blocks, RunAs Radio, Hanselminutes, Software Engineering Radio, Herding Code, .Net Rocks. Always looking for more though.

I'm confused, I don't know what type of errors a promise eats. If you're chaining together promises returned by other routines, especially with async/await, then error propagation and handling is very natural. If you're creating a promise using `new Promise` then you can use reject to propagate errors. How does this fall short of other async models?
For those wanting to use async/await everywhere, right now, it can be transpiled using Babel or similar (in Babel you need to enable the "es7.asyncFunctions" feature: https://babeljs.io/docs/advanced/transformers/#es7-experimen... )
For most of the people I know that aren't in tech, patent reform isn't remotely on their radar. Congress isn't going to go against the money for an issue that doesn't have overwhelming popular support. Is there even a consensus on what would fix the problem? Banning software patents just covers one edge case, but there are plenty more issues in patent law.

Patents in all fields clearly slow down innovation by allowing the holder to slow down or stop derivative works. The common counter to removing patents altogether is big pharmacy. I don't know how much sympathy I can have for big pharmaceuticals either with how much they get away with: even with unpatented drugs we see anti-competitive behavior with companies like Turing. Clearly the innovation is profitable enough that funding it publicly and then reaping the benefit publicly shouldn't be a problem, right?

The other objection is that it promotes secrets over open innovation, but I'm not sure that is too valid either. The current status quo gags profitable utilization of research for 20 years. Surely there's an acceptable alternative.
I love these weird unexpected Amazon projects. They're like the opposite of Google's moonshots.

Google has policies for the Chrome Web Store and this extension doesn't abide by it. I have highlighting just a few points below.

People usually are nice to each other and abide by them. This is why we can have nice things.

# [Developer Program Policies](https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/program_policies)

1. We don't allow unauthorized publishing of people's private and confidential information, such as credit card numbers, government identification numbers, driver's and other license numbers, or any other information that is not publicly accessible. Additionally, we don't allow items that collect, store, or transmit user credentials or other private user data in an unsafe or unauthorized manner.

2. Spyware, malicious scripts, and password phishing scams are also prohibited in the Chrome Web Store. Where possible, make as much of your code visible in the package as you can. If some of your app's logic is hidden and it appears to be suspicious, we may remove it.
3. Your app must comply with Google's Webmaster Quality Guidelines.
4. Don't misrepresent the functionality of your app or include non-obvious functionality that doesn't serve the primary purpose of the app without clear notification to the user.
5. Forcing the user to click on ads or submit personal information for advertising purposes in order to fully use an app or extension provides a poor user experience and is prohibited.

# [Webmaster Guidelines: Quality guidelines](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35769?hl=en#3)
Don't deceive your users.

# [Unwanted Software Policy](https://www.google.com/about/company/unwanted-software-polic...)
We’ve found that most unwanted software displays one or more of the same basic characteristics:

* It is deceptive, promising a value proposition that it does not meet.
* It tries to trick users into installing it or it piggybacks on the installation of another program.
* It doesn’t tell the user about all of its principal and significant functions.
* It affects the user’s system in unexpected ways.
* It is difficult to remove.
* It collects or transmits private information without the user’s knowledge.
* It is bundled with other software and its presence is not disclosed.
Building RESTful Services with Swagger and Clojure
Wonder what the pricing looks like... any clues?
A couple more Amazon problems:

They obviously treat their vendors like red-headed stepchildren; they know they have to be on Amazon to make sales, but the margins have to be tiny. Ever notice how when you order something from an Amazon "partner", the tracking information is magically worse than worthless? And of course, if you have a problem they'll correct it immediately at their own cost, because Amazon threatens to turn off the sales faucet if they don't make the Amazon Experience pleasant for the consumer.

Don't get me wrong, I still shop there. Particularly for electronics -- 3% cashback on my Amazon card is nothing to shake a stick at.

But it's feeling worse and worse to do so.
I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to, but in the Quake/Quack incident the texture quality and mip levels* were different than the user-specified values when running a different named program. This was producing obvious visual artifacts, and I consider this cheating.

If I specify "16x Anisotropic filtering" and the driver changes that to "4x" or some other number behind the scenes, that's an unacceptable optimization.

The current "GeForce Experience" program that selects optimal settings for the current card is an acceptable optimization, I can see which settings are configured and change them if I like.

[*] I don't remember the specific things they were adjusting.

Do we know Amazon is actually offering the same prices to people in NYC and Iowa? Seems like they could maximize their profit by normalizing pricing to a user's regional cost of living.
> Um, no, they crushed all the technical bookstores because they could always get you the book you wanted very quickly and at a good price, unlike any other bookstore on the planet. Every one of those bookstores could have done the same thing in the Internet age, but the thing is, they didn't.

First, Amazon had a built-in advantage on sales tax for a LONG time. That's 8% off the top where I live.

Second, Amazon leveraged its volume in the popular bestsellers to strong-arm the publishers on the technical area. So, while my local bookstore would have to eat the inventory if I ordered a book and didn't want it, Amazon could return the inventory. This was HUGE.

Third, Amazon often WASN'T any faster than my local bookstore, but they would always claim they were. A couple times I ordered a technical book overnight from Amazon that claimed it was "in stock" and it would appear 2 weeks later--just like my local bookstore said it would take to get it from the publisher.

Fourth, my local technical bookstore was really good about ordering online and jumped immediately. It still didn't help.

The combination of no sales tax, monopoly position to get better terms from publishers, and outright lying about stock simply crushed the technical bookstores.

Well, jokes on Amazon and the publishers, since I can't browse technical books any more, I don't buy technical books anymore. And those had huge profit margins.
That directive covers about every electronic device, including major appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, and electric ovens.

Also, one could argue that this is more important for the smaller items. Most people will have way more of them, and having, say, a 5W power drain, 24 hours a day, on a €30,— toaster that you use for, rounding up, 1 hour a week, relatively is a much larger waste, and feels way worse than having that same drain on a €1000,— television that you use, rounding down, for 2 hours every day.

In most cases, you learn more with a great teacher than you do by yourself, and teaching is a different skill than performing. Even Tom Brady has a quarterbacks coach, who couldn't throw the ball like he can, but can still offer constructive guidance.

This is especially true for complete beginners. If I sat down in front of a piano and practiced an hour every day for six months, I would probably not do very well, since I wouldn't know where to start, I wouldn't know good technique, and I'd probably learn a lot of bad habits. If I took just a few weeks of lessons and then practiced an hour a day for six months, I'd make a lot more progress since I'd have a better idea of how to learn piano.
Nothing new here--publishers want more direct buys vs. programmatic remnant sales on the exchanges. Higher margins, controlling the data, keeping things a black box--can't say I blame them, but that's not to say they'll get their wish.
It is not really fully Open Source. Since they changed the license [1], they adopted a open core model and so most of the new features (UI, reports, etc) are only available as private software.
Also they have a quite strange interpretation of the xGPL license mixed with proprietary license.
Users of their SAAS service should be careful to not install those private software otherwise they will not be able to change of hosting service.

Most of the time in rust, you can just `#[derive(Eq)]` and be done with it, so those kinds of things are far less likely.
No /automatic/ merge resolution. Obviously you have a tool that can open them (if you edited it in the first place), and you can use that to view the differences, and replay one set of changes. The fact that the SCM detected the conflict, and alerted you, allowing you to resolve it, is a solid improvement over not using an SCM. Further, automatic merge resolution isn't always possible with text-based assets either (and even when it is, it isn't always the correct option!).
:The real nail in the coffin is that we're not solving a real need."

I'd tend to agree, except that half of YC's companies don't solve a real need. Neither Twitter nor Facebook solve a real need. It's just that they got enough early users to benefit from network effects.

If someone comes up with some IoT thing so compelling that you have to have it in your pocket/on your wrist when you're anywhere away from home, that could be a big win. A wristband that lets you into your house, starts your car, logs you into your computer, gets you onto airplanes, and won't work if it's on someone else's wrist.

I like your thoughts here! Indeed I have been hoping to mostly attract people who are willing to be fully open with their data. If I ever get big enough to implement this 'algorithms in/results out' approach I intend to re-engage the whole userbase and have people opt-in to crowdsourced scientific analysis. To prevent data leaking I figured we would start with full code review, and indeed air-gapped analysis.

Its a continually evolving thing. I imagine it would be years before I get to that stage. Depends on if I find funding or university help.
