I'm not sure about the no promises and no callbacks part.

The similar line they use in their examples doesn't define a separate getJsonAsync function in the "Asynchronous city" section (and, as far as I can tell, there's no native getJSON function). That, and the fact that the line immediately preceding the await call has a comment that says, "just have to await the promise!", leads me to have to assume they used the function defined in the promises section, which of course uses promises. And, in order to define that promise, they do have to use three callbacks.

With functions and just callbacks I can make one-liners for fetching data too if I abstract away all the stuff that actually does the fetching of the data:

getJSON('/users/joe/orders', function(orders) {} );

Things that are not surprising take a while to propagate into the core institutional rules. Internet has enabled information sharing, and people have figured out how to educate themselves relatively recently, in historic terms. It is good news when self educated people have more chances and educational institutions are pressured to innovate.

SEEKING WORK - SF Bay Area or remote
Generally available for freelance web app engineering work. I've been working with Rails and JS for ~8 years now, at all points up and down the stack. Everything from performance work on existing code to bringing up a full-fledged product from wireframes.

In the past, I've worked with companies like Leap Motion, Anki, Rocket Fuel, and TaskRabbit. Before that, I had two startups of my own. In my spare time, I fly airplanes. Currently fully booked through the fall, but I'm always happy to grab coffee and chat.

That's what I thought it sounded like too, which made me think of the strange part - as far as I know, any Android app provider can make their video app Chromecast-compatible. It's up to the app provider, not Google. Amazon already has a Amazon Video Android app, which last I checked, they only provide over their proprietary app store. So it's up to them to make Prime Video work on Chromecast, they just have to put their Video app on the Play store, and set it up to Cast.

I'm in the United States, and I don't know if I've ever seen an aluminum food can here. All of the Campbells Soup Cans, Canned vegetables, etc, are in steel cans. They are usually coated with a polymer that can break down into nasty things if it's heated, though. I found that out after heating many meals in the can over a campfire.

Atlanta, GA | Square | https://squareup.com/careers

Our Atlanta, GA engineering office is in Atlantic Station, and we're hiring for iOS, Android, go, java, and ruby developers. We have a great team here with a lot of Xooglers, and we work on everything from the Square Register app to the highest SLA systems inside of Square.

We've started hosting monthly tech talk meetups. Even if you aren't looking for a job, please come by if you're in the area and want to nerd out with us: http://www.meetup.com/Square-Atlanta-Tech-Talks/
Does the Cast SDK depend on google play services? If so, that's got a pretty spotty technical record on their Fire devices, and I don't think Amazon is allowed to redistribute it anyways. Might be they don't want to implement Chromecast support for every platform except their own.
> Few big players seem to be making use of such a thing. They'd currently rather have their own walled gardens. :)

Even some of the small maker targeted ones. For awhile I was searching for a cheap wifi connected microcontroller for some hobbyist home automation stuff. Both the Electric Imp[1] and Particle/Spark[2] products looked great, but they seem to both have obligatory cloud integration. If I spend weeks building something for my home, It has to be able to work until the hardware dies.

Luckily, I found the ESP8266[3] has pretty much all the capabilities I want, no cloud required.

If you have business support (10% of total a month / $100 minimum I think) or better that is how it works, except you have to wait hours sometimes and it's very slow to work with the Amazon reps. Also, always make requests urgent, otherwise you'll never get a rep.
Yeah this stuff won't be "universal" until at least all browsers support it... which would be GREAT
Duo also supports it.
HTTPS, code and binaries signing, etc all depend on the fact that getting a malicious message with a hash signature that collides with another arbitrary message is all but impossible. If you don't trust that, you're pretty much unable to trust anything that's transmitted over the 'net, and this potential hole is not significant in that context.

Some phones actually provide U2F. I think the SGS6 does. The secret in stored in the harware backed credentials storage.
> On the other hand, maybe Amazon is angry at Google for not making Google Play Movies/Music available on the 'Fire' line of tablets, and this is retribution?

The equivalent to that would be refusing to release Amazon Video on the Play Store, which Amazon has done.

Banning hardware products from the Amazon marketplace is an escalation.
You just need to pay premium support, which is < 100$ a mo I believe. They reply within a day, but to satisfaction in our experience.
Might not suffice for all use case but thought I'd share it's not totally bad for small companies.
Recursion Pharmaceuticals | SLC, Utah | Onsite, full-time

Senior Data Scientist | Senior Software Engineer

We have 20 TB of high-resolution images of human cells, some diseased, some healthy, which we have to statistically distinguish as a first step to finding cures for rare genetic diseases. Our small team of biology and math Ph.D.’s has the potential to save lives and be at the forefront of the revolution in image-based biological analysis.

What we do

There are more than 5,000 untreated rare genetic diseases, which together affect nearly ten million people in the US alone. Each of these diseases affects too few people for traditional pharmaceutical companies to approach them, so we're building a way to seek treatments for hundreds of these diseases in parallel. We aim to find treatments for 100 of them in the next 10 years.

What you'll do

The high-level job description has only one item: do whatever is necessary to help us progress in identifying cures for diseases. We hire the best, and trust that they are usually in the best position to decide what to try next. See the post linked below for more details.

Logistics

We're based in Research Park at the edge of the mountains overlooking Salt Lake City, Utah. Gorgeous hiking/running/biking is literally out our back door, and it's half an hour to 5 top ski resorts. We offer competitive pay, health insurance, relocation assistance (working at the office is part of the deal), equity, an awesome team to work with, and the chance to impact the world in a massively positive way.

Well, seems like a good reason to block scripts that are constantly updating, no?

I suspect this is going to become a turbo AdBlock. If the original page doesn't sign the content, block it.
We use JIRA and I'm really disappointed with the user interface.

One of the simplest examples I can give is the inconsistent dropdown list. For most (but not all) dropdowns it lists all of the items except the one you currently have selected. This is a departure from every other system I have ever used and find it annoying.
Uh. U2F feels incredibly limited compared to PKCS#11 I really wonder why it was chosen (and somewhat disappointed by the choice.)

With a smartcard that can hold an key pair, one can both authenticate (sign) and encrypt messages, using a same single key (or multiple keys if wish for multiple identities). With U2F all one can is authenticate, using a distinct securely-stored PSK for each remote party.
Because we eat more carbs and less fat today than 20 years ago.
I would have used it if it used Google Authenticator.

It is a feature of using lower frequencies together with lower data rates and signal processing technologies. Consult with any RF engineer -- there is no magic here, just practical engineering to solve a particular set of problems.
Oh, so it was we who missed your email. Sorry! Will reply soon.

But please, no more ring-voting. HN's software has lots of measures to detect that and then your accounts get penalized, which we don't want to do.
Right, but what if you're welding a 40ft long plate to another 40ft long plate? You need to cover a large portion of both the front and back in argon. At some point it becomes easier to instead of constantly rigging up and tearing down back-shields to just put up a huge tent, bring all the various sub-assemblies in there and weld everything up.

You don't have to keep the whole sub in the tent from start to finish, just while you're assembling all the various small parts into the large overall hull. If it's a 3 year build, I'd guess you'd only need it that way for a few months.

Also 12 million pounds of steel would cost you less than $12 million. And that's before you have to machine, cut, fit, weld, anything. All of those things get much, much more expensive when you're talking Ti. I suspect that an order of magnitude across all aspects is reasonable, for material cost, machining cost, welding cost, etc.

So if you had $10mm of steel and $100mm of fabrication for the Seawolf hull, you'd have $100mm of Ti and $1b of fabrication for the all titanium sub.
All of the software patent trolls are pretty much going to be out of business in the next 12 - 18 months.

It's not. If browser vendors thought that the potential for breaking a decent hash function was a real threat, they would also not implement HTTPS, signed updates, etc, all of which depend on the trust in hash based signatures.

This might be a feature I could not stand on Samsung LCD TVs. It was most evident in space scenes where the star field in the background was panned. It would go dim and bright based on the motion. It was a horrible effect and I had no idea how to turn it off.
I was just thinking about how they have buried a great product, google hangouts, inside a me too product, google+, and neglected it bc it doesn't have a business model attached. What a waste! Hangouts is much better and more reliable than Skype, but very difficult to find and sign up for. All it needs is its a stage of its own and a business model and it could destroy Skype, which needs to be destroyed imho. Combined with some business features it could rule the meeting room worldwide, then expand into consumer from there.
I would like he to define lost. Fogbugz is still around and profitable.

I have always seen Fogbugz as a support tool first, bug tracking kindof it's what they built for Fogcreek's process(for Copilot support and development). If you did everything like them it probably was a great fit. Jira on the other hand I have always seen as bug tracker.
This sums up pretty much nicely. You don't always need a college degree is a fact. But, getting a college degree is useless is an over statement. I have interviewed/spoken to a bunch of bootcamp camp grads who are good at what they do. But, they fail to catch up with other people when anything new is thrown at them(eg., devops stuff to a front end guy). But, if you are a hacker at heart, you dont need any bootcamp or any degree to excel at a job. The best developer I know is a high school dropout who started out as a kernel hacker.

I find that even moving to the F1-F12 row is sometimes slower than hitting a key combination (whether with a prefix key or a modifier) somewhere closer.

The layout posted would be useful for launching apps and resizing windows but I can't imagine using it for copy and paste or typing things like "px".
