San Francisco, CA - Jobr - Senior Software Engineer or Data Scientist - 5-10 FTEs - http://www.jobrapp.com

Jobr is the leading mobile-first jobs application combining a Tinder-style interface with a Pandora-like recommendation engine. We were founded just over a year ago, and all key metrics continue to grow 50-100% MoM. We’ve raised $2M in funding from a group of strategic investors and advisors including Lowercase Capital, Workday, the Tinder founders, Redpoint Ventures, Lerer Ventures, and Eniac Ventures. Our platform now has over 1M jobs across virtually every industry and covers the entire US and Canada, and we’re planning to expand further later this year.

We’re looking for a hungry, analytical Software Engineer to help us continue to move quickly and scale engineering operations. You should be comfortable in all parts of the stack, from writing CSS to querying databases to managing instances.

As a boots-on-the-ground guy, it was intended to be a little rattling.

I've seen soooo many smake oil proposals, and wishy-washy garbage that amounted to "just do a better job", and I've kicked out a couple of consultants who wanted money (and one wanted a process patent!) for a scheme that amounted to "track team member progress on a whiteboard in your common area". Too many people with not enough background (or bad motives) think they have the answer.

So, I'm jaded. And allergic to rhetoric, because so much of it over the past 30-40 years has been vacuous bullshit.

This stuff is hard, no fooling. And rhetoric won't solve it. I'm happy you're actually doing something about it, and realize that it's difficult, and I honestly hope that you do well.
FP doesn't even have a definition (though pure-FP does, but it, too, can be a bit ambiguous and depends on how you define effects). FP is mostly accepted to be those patterns practiced by people in the FP community. I heard someone deeply involved with FP say, "FP is more a community than a well-defined programming style".
Possibly because vdev is a clean break, while eudev is still mostly about udev stripped from systemd.

And that stripping will be more complicated moving forward, as i recall a recent systemd release moved various bits from udev to a new systemd lib. Leaving the udev interfaces as stubs to be removed at some undetermined future date.

Scrolling completely broken on iOS, no momentum. Components display also broken, sidebar takes up 70% of the screen.

When loading the dialog component in the playground, it only takes up about 10% of the screen (it's centered though), I think it's width is relative to the view being clobbered by the sidebar

This is all on an iPhone 6s/ios9
Developers should keep their team when changing jobs
There were lots of Very Serious People writing about how this thing obviously couldn't possibly work. We mostly ignored them and got on with it.
I completely agree with you. I was just trying to stress the importance of having capable engineers. It seems that people forget about it when they outsource. Furthermore, you actually need better engineers if you outsource.

AIUI, either the Council (of ministers, i.e. the various appointed government representatives) or the Commission ( the technocratic bureaucracy which may have regulatory power delegated to them in some area of competence by the Council) can issue a regulation. The parliament, however, cannot.

Power in 'the EU' is wielded largely by the CoM and the Commission, the parliament is just a side show. The EU is a fundamentally technocratic, not democratic, institution, This is by design.

edit : fat fingers
Wrath of Khan is only good because of Mantalban. The movies didn't really pick up until the fourth one, when they stopped taking them so seriously and just had some fun making a movie.

And at least a handful of good episodes exist. There are no such specimens among the (two) new movies.

Sometimes plot creativity can get you a long way on a small budget (think Firefly).

But yeah as soon as you introduce alien worlds, having high quality on a small budget does get difficult.
Ascension was good. My favourite sci-fi series the last few years has been Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror though.

The Christmas special in particular was pretty mind bending.

Can someone please explain it to me?
Unlock iOS 9.2 iPhone 6s and iPhone 6S plus with new iCloud 4.0 activator tool
I'm actually hoping someone will reply and show me why I'm wrong, because it's a scary view. As a software engineer in the startup scene I personally don't see how they could care about the idea deeply, based on all of my experiences. I'm hoping someone has an experience that proves me wrong.
Yeah the most documented such evaluation, the Debian process, seemed to only evaluate sysv, upstart and systemd (openrc was briefly mentioned but quickly dismissed).

The rest seems to have been executive decisions (with or without a "deal with it" meme accompanying), often by people already involved with systemd development.
Backend Developer | London (Clerkenwell) | Full-time | Onsite

Ambie (http://ambie.fm) is effortless music management for brands and spaces. We're a quick growing startup providing 24-7 streaming music to businesses across the world. We've just come out of the Techstars London Autumn program.

Our customers love us, and we want to keep it that way, so we need someone who always puts the customer first and who is a good communicator.

We have a fully functioning product, but there is a lot for us to do in order for us to keep up with our rate of growth.

As one of the early Ambie team members, you'll have to be comfortable with uncertainty. But you'll be having a massive impact, and will get to hear from satisfied customers all the time.

Our stack is primarily Django with a backbone front end. But we're evolving rapidly — so things will change. We're moving towards React for our front end, and technology for our back end is up for debate.

- The pay is competitive.
- The environment is fun, flexible and interesting.
- You'll have definite impact.

Send through your details to jobs@ambie.fm
I don't know about arbitrary, but it is detailed, expensive (Yes, they really do send someone to talk to everyone you list on the forms in person.), and takes a very long time. (I've had several relatives with both engineering and military backgrounds doing inventory-related reports for several months while waiting for their DoE clearances to be processed.) This seems odd given that I've also heard, less reliably, that they grant something like 96% of the clearances.

In practice, having a security clearance becomes a job requirement of the same level as experience and ability to perform the job. Since cleared jobs don't pay several times more than jobs without the requirement and there's no way for an individual to get a clearance without the sponsorship of an employer, job-related skill tends to suffer.

Government contracts are a very specialized skillset[1] that is completely unrelated to any kind of development effort. People with that skillset bring in revenue and are thus assets; people doing development are expenses.

They're different sub-genres. I really enjoyed BSG, but for me it didn't take away anything from TNG. The only criticism I have with TNG is that tech isn't the solution to all their non-philosophical problems -- they are a civilization with, to a first-order approximation, complete mastery over energy and matter, with even the Q wary about their further potential. Yet the pattern buffers can't store swathes of human backups because reasons? TNG is at its best when it's philosophical, that aspect is essential to its sub-genre.

As for DS9, it was great, but it wishes it was Babylon 5. B5 was superior in every way except budget.

SEEKING WORK - Toronto - Remote

I’m a design engineer based out of Toronto. I work with web-based startups looking to flesh out the UI of their initial product or help established companies build a scalable UI system with modern front-end practices.

I’m looking to work with more companies – starting in January 2016 – that need help from a designer/developer hybrid. Some of the technologies I work with: Node, Ruby on Rails, React, CSS/SASS/Stylus, ES6/CoffeeScript/TypeScript, BEM/SUIT/ITCSS, WCAG. I do not work on WordPress or Angular projects.

I’ve worked with startup graduates from Y Combinator, Techstars and FounderFuel. I’ve worked on battle-tested products used by Apple, Facebook, Google and many others. Everyone has seen measurable success after working with me. You should join the club! I’d love to hear about your team and product, so let’s get in touch.

Smart Fishing Float Indiegogo
Don’t Say This to a Designer (for developers and other folks)
When “weirdness” becomes a professional asset
That is kind of my point. What made Voyager interesting was the dire situation they put everybody into, but then they chickened out and often just punted on the whole question.

How you cope with conflict when your supply of weapons is inherently limited can make for interesting stories. How to find a new supply of weapons could make for interesting stories. But they couldn't be bothered to go either way, and just went straight for "the characters figured it out somehow, offscreen, and implied."

To stretch your house cat analogy way too far, it's like if the show constantly had the cats eating kibble, but without ever addressing the question of where it came from, even though that's a pretty important part of surviving in the wild and has lots of potential for good stories.
Smart fishing float is a creative product that will make great effect in fishing. You can monitor the fish bite conditions by your mobile phone.
What you need to do is: download an APP named " SMARTFLOAT " and connect this smart float with mobilephone through Bluetooth ( maximum range 15m distance ). With this item you don't need to keep your eyes fixed on the float on water any more, just play with your mobile phone and catch fish, you can check the stock quotation, play mobile games, chat with friends, take photos while fishing.

Main Features:
Made of imported balsa wood, this wood is the lightest in the world, floating in the water
Quite convenient for fishing at night, say goodbye to flashlight and floats with light that uncomfortable to your eyes
You need to download an APP named " SMARTFLOAT " ( download from google play, or scan the two-dimension code on user manual )
Powered by 1 x CR435 battery ( package includes 2pcs batteries ), working for 8 hours ( approx )
Support mobile phone system: IOS 5, Android 4.3+
Sensity: Adjustable ( 12 modes for adjusting by mobilephone )
Attention: This smart fishing float only powered by CR435 battery, don't try to install other batteries, or the float will be damaged
Wow, thank you Jetbrains. Adobe could learn a thing or two here.
Didn't they do Starfleet with the Bakula series?
Currently re-watching the Next Generation on Netflix. The remastering is wonderful; you can really see the film-level quality in things like Geordi's visor, etc. What I miss most about the Star Trek universe is its optimism; particularly during The Next Generation days. Sci-fi has largely mirrored the militarism of the past decade. If the new series brings back some of that optimism, I'd be excited.

Preferral | Nashville, TN | REMOTE (or onsite)

Looking for Front-end, or Back-end, or system integration folks.

We use:

* Elasticsearch
* React
* Redux
* Webpack
* Mocha/chai
* Knockout (moving away from it though)
* MirthConnect

Come join a small but high impact team working to improve healthcare access and efficiency. We take patient referrals online. Why? Because patients currently move through the healthcare system via faxes and phone calls from healthcare travel agents. As a result patients frequently end up at a non-optimal specialist, if they end up with a specialist at all. Sometimes it takes more than 2 weeks just to book a referral appointment. We fix this. There's a huge amount of value to be added (and captured) in bringing patient referrals online.

As a company we believe in work/life balance, continual learning, and a friendly and productive environment. We'd love to hear from you!

Shoot me an email at jon@preferral.com
It's not eager. The | combinator takes lazy parameters (called pass-by-name in scala). So it essentially gets translated to:

val e = operator_pipe(() => p, () => e)

Note that the operator_pipe() itself returns a function, which gets assigned as a value to `e`. So there is lots of implicit laziness.
I'm binge-watching DS9 (for the second time ;) and I have been thinking a series about Nog's time at Starfleet Academy would be fun.

Please do. If you consider a company expecting employees to have the maturity above an adolescent boy "bad employers", we'd like you to help filter yourself out.
I mean, it's an assumption that's got some known counterexamples. For example, Google Now stores the raw audio from every time you activate it / dictate a question on an Android device. It's not out of the question to expect that Facebook might be keeping raw audio data to process later / test.

Ascension was interesting but I believe canceled as a series last time I checked on wikipedia.

Wrath of Khan is only good because of Mantalban. The movies didn't really pick up until the fourth one, when they stopped taking them so seriously and just had some fun making a movie.

So you're a "Trouble with Tribbles" kind of a guy/girl.

Nothing wrong with that at all, everyone has different tastes!

But we'll agree to disagree. While Khan is clearly an action film first, it's an exploration of Kirk as a character, which is interesting. And that ending...

Frankly, I'll put myself in the minority by stating that I personally think The Voyage Home was frickin' awful... really, a fish-out-of-water tale (well, mammal-out-of-water...) via time travel? sigh

But that's just my opinion. :)
