I'm hoping to get back into a full time office environment and put my skills as a web developer, internet marketer, and content creator to good use with a business based in Philadelphia. No job is too small! Happy to answer any questions, thanks!

* UI Developer (Visa possible) * Web and Data Developers (Visa possible) * Web Development INTERNS

What we do:
We take real world government data and research, and turn them into interactive data viz tools. The Atlas of Economic Complexity is our current online tool that lets you interactively visualize a country’s trade and explore growth opportunities for more than a hundred countries worldwide. There are also other National Atlas projects launching soon, one for Colombia and one for Mexico.

Our stack:
We use python, django, mysql (hopefully postgres soon), elasticsearch, ansible for the back end. For the frontend, it's ember / d3 on big national projects, jquery/d3 on atlas.cid.harvard.edu/ and WebGL with Three.js on some 3d projects that we’ve launched such as globe.cid.harvard.edu/ Everything we do is open source: https://github.com/cid-harvard

Demo of the current atlas:
An example of how the atlas is useful take this story here: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/03/21/world/europe/h...

Last year the EU placed sanctions on sales of oil equipment, but not on oil imports. Why could this be? Almost 70% of russia's exports are petrol products: http://atlas.cid.harvard.edu/explore/tree_map/export/rus/all...

And Russia exports the overwhelming majority of its petroleum products to Europe:
http://atlas.cid.harvard.edu/explore/tree_map/export/rus/sho...

The big blue chunk is europe, meaning a sanction would really hurt Russia. However, when you look at who else the EU could buy from, the situation is grim: http://atlas.cid.harvard.edu/explore/tree_map/net_export/sho...

There’s practically no one who’s a real political ally that Europe could depend on, save for Norway. It’s interesting how it’s practically impossible to buy oil from a country that’s relatively stable and doing well on the HDI front.
It’s worse if you consider the cost of transporting it, and how close Russia is:
http://atlas.cid.harvard.edu/explore/map/net_export/show/all...

Which probably explains why EU hasn't placed sanctions on oil imports from Russia.

Yeah for something like a tv or monitor, you have to see it in person or you're rolling the dice. How's the glare? How does it look from other angles beside straight on? Hows this 4K res compare to the one next to it?

Even if Amazon could provide a Hololens sessions for me to look at the product (which maybe they should do at some future Amazon retail location) alongside all the specs and reviews, it's still not going to bridge the gap of seeing it in person.
Improvement over the last one. The large voting arrows are good. Too much wasted white space on the sides of the screen on the iPhone 5/5s.
I totally agree. I'd like to take advantage of the screen's DPI, if possible.
The ability to explore and analyze campaign finance data on a website that actually works (I don't know if anyone else has ever tried to use the old FEC site...) is a huge step in being able to name and shame abuses of money in politics. This isn't just "a new website," it's a platform for effecting change.

Tuft & Needle | Phoenix, AZ | Full Stack, Front-End, UX

We're disrupting the mattress industry by providing a high-quality mattress for less by cutting out the middle-man markups and scammy industry tactics. In 2013, we set out to build a better product, and a better experience than what was offered to us. Along the way, we've found a passion for creating products of value. Careers at Tuft & Needle go well beyond competitive pay, benefits, and perks (although we have all of those). We're much more than a mattress company. At Tuft & Needle, we are a collection of entrepreneurs who have come together to build something we could not have done on our own.

I would imagine it was a simple mistake. No reason to be nasty about it.
There was a permanent notification that I could not get rid off. I consider that forcing an upgrade.

It was the 2012 version of Nexus 7 and while not everyone had these issues, it was a pretty common problem and I consider it a huge failure on Google's part. As far as a I know, there is no way to downgrade without rooting the phone. Some people reported that factory reset helped with the performance. I haven't used it for several months and then installed CM - not as fast as the 4.x was, but somewhat usable.
Show HN: Our Solution to Safe Harbor Invalidation
Yeah, I'm a mix between the two. I do use Amazon because it makes it easy to compare lots of products and prices and when they have something I want with Prime shipping (and occasionally same-day shipping) it beats driving around to the store.

At the same time, if something is available at roughly the same price (can be a little more) at a local store, I would just as soon pick it up in person and avoid the shipping delay. Essentially, I'm willing to pay a little more for fast delivery but I'm just as willing to pay a little more for the "instant gratification" of just being able to go pick the thing up.

The main difference I've found is that lots of physical retail stores often don't have what I want or their online inventory system is unreliable so something will show as in stock locally but when I go to the actual store, it's nowhere to be found. Shopping online (for me) is often more about finding the exact item I want than it is about saving a few bucks by ordering direct.

Recent example: a friend wanted me to build him a new desktop PC for general use and for gaming. Maybe 5 years ago I'd have gone straight to Newegg because no retail location would have the selection of parts needed to build the best PC I could build within his budget. But now we have a Microcenter nearby and while smaller components (cables, RAM, etc) might cost a few dollars more per item, they sell CPUs at a sizable discount as loss leaders so the total build is roughly equal to the Newegg price plus shipping cost. In that case, it's nicer to just go to the store, compare stuff like build quality of computer cases in person, get everything home that day (no shipping wait), and have a local place where I can go if something turns out to be defective. No waiting for lengthy RMA shipping delays, just an hour on a Saturday to stop in and swap something out.

So I guess from a customer's perspective, retail is still a good option and worth some level of cost premium as long as selection is good and I can verify that the items I want are in stock. The other bit I haven't mentioned is access. In the case of Microcenter, I just walk in, grab a cart, and pick up all of my parts. When I just bought an iPhone to replace my girlfriend's older model, I ordered direct from Apple rather than going to the Apple store. Apple store would've had the phone in my hand on the same day but it is located in a shopping mall. I really, really hate going to that shopping mall because it means driving around a parking garage and then navigating floors of shops and escalators and crowds in order to get to the Apple store. I'll totally wait a day or two for shipping if it means I don't need to step foot in the mall.

I like your metaphor, I think I'm going to use it in the future.

Entropy is going down in India and China but it's going up in the States and Europe.

Does it means that the entropy trend, of all the system, is going down or up?

2. Being tired of how unproductive I was. My friend sending a spreadsheet of him tracking his time and finally watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZexvTZ1sV8U

3. I just want to help myself in becoming productive and in the process help others. So far the app has helped me become more productive and I have received many emails/DMs thanking me for helping others achieve this too. The most important thing I want to learn is how to launch a product and keep updating it with the user's feedback. I received a negative feedback from a bug on my initial app, then I fixed it with an update (and added more features) and the user then changed his negative review to a 5-star positive reivew on the app store and was very happy. This alone sold me on the importance of listening to your customers. This is one of my first iOS apps, so I'm learning about iOS development and launching a product at the same time.
A naive question - if this kind of reactors start producing more energy than consuming, what kind of fuel would they need? AFAIK the Sun slowly burns hydrogen into helium. Does it mean that stellarators would only need hydrogen to operate? That would be basically free energy.

Startup CTO for hire

I’m a back-leaning, full-stack developer who speaks business as well as tech.

I have built and been part of several startups, from zero to hundreds of people - from developer to CTO. Whether you need an MVP or help to untangle a code base that has grown unchecked for years, I can probably help. As a developer, I have expert proficiency in PHP and Ruby, but I’m no stranger to devops or frontend dev.

Get in touch on http://troelskn.com/

It's probably a chicken-egg thing. I'm not sure which came first; just thinking out loud.
After three years without a product, is VR over before it even started?
I'm quite surprised to see this. Isn't this confidential information?
I remember this. I was out of school a couple of years by that time.

If you read the history of ubiquitous technologies that we take for granted, you'll see the same attitude repeated. The car, plane, radio, television, light bulb, the UN, etc. you'd have to look at the really early form of these things.
Ah Manchester! Don't think I've seen a Manchester job on here before! Good luck.

Luck and self-delusion don't preclude the existence of each other.

I may have said "this dog has 4 legs" but I certainly didn't say "everything with 4 legs is a dog".

The climber who declares "I couldn't do it because there was bad weather" and doesn't persist: are they lucky to be alive to try again later? Or are they a deluded shirker expressing sour-grapes at someone else's success? These are not mutually exclusive. Equally, they could both be false.

I don't deny determination and incremental (or paradigmatic) progress. Luck (or chance) is a factor that the successful (and their worshippers) seem only to eager to dismiss.
If you had just used a static there'd be no need to talk to the activity directly. The bizarre hacks tend to arise because Java devs seem to consider static globals as icky.

N. Don't write any code that isn't specified by a requirement. In a shop as large as VW, there are requirements.

Investigations are only beginning, but at this point it's plausible that some of the coders involved didn't quite know what the purpose of their code was. VW execs jumped early to try to hang this on "one or two software engineers."

Promote this publicly in the interests of "traceability," which everyone agrees is a good thing. Want it privately in the interests of self-preservation.

If a company wants something built, particularly in a regulated industry, they damn well better declare it.

Which reminds me, it will be interesting to see how the VW code in question relates to their requirements systems.
