Pivotal | ONSITE SF, NYC, Palo Alto and many, many locations worldwide | Engineers, Designers, Product Managers, Data Scientists | Visa and relocation assistance

First things first. We look for aptitude over APIs. It doesn't matter whether your resumé says PHP or PhD: if you're smart, know some stuff and have empathy, we want to work with you.

Pivotal's goal is to change the way the world makes software and we kinda sorta really mean it. We're broken into three basic divisions: Pivotal Labs (yes, that Pivotal Labs), Pivotal Cloud Foundry and Pivotal Big Data. Rotations between divisions, temporarily or permanently, are possible.

We have offices in San Francisco, New York City, Santa Monica, Palo Alto, Seattle, Boulder, Denver, Chicago, Boston, Washington DC, Toronto, London, Dublin, Tokyo and Sydney. We will soon be opening an office in Berlin as well, with more to come. Relocations, temporarily or permanently, are possible.

Each of the three divisions has a constantly evolving and deliberately cross-pollinated culture. We are constantly thinking about how we work and how we can work more sensibly, effectively and enjoyably. Right now we are particularly trying to grow in Labs and Cloud Foundry.

-- Pivotal Labs, from which the company draws its name and cultural seed, helps clients to become better at development. For engineering we are religiously lean and agile. In practice that means we pair program and TDD every line of code from the outside. Our product managers are fantastic at keeping products sharply focused, our designers are masters from users to pixels. We have a growing data science practice, and some engagements include all four roles.

-- Cloud Foundry solves application deployment and management. We're the main contributors to the Cloud Foundry project. We're constantly improving the leading opensource PaaS -- our distribution has the fastest-growing sales of any opensource product ever.

It's also the only PaaS I'd personally bet a company on. Except for integrated upstream code, every line is pair programmed and TDD'd. We dogfood the cutting edge of the technology on our own commercial public cloud (Pivotal Web Services). It works because we took the XP and Lean DNA of Pivotal Labs and scaled it up to build the best cloud platform bar none.

-- Generally

At our offices we have free breakfast, weekly tech talks, good benefits and competitive pay. Ping pong is not mandatory, but it's popular. I think west-coast ping pong is harder to beat, but east-coast style is more entertaining to watch. The beer fridge has more IPA than I prefer but I guess that's life in paradise.

We provide visa and relocation assistance. In the NYC office we have about 15 people from overseas, including Australians like me.

You can apply through our website: http://pivotal.io/careers. You can also email me at jchester+hn@pivotal.io to answer any questions you might have and potentially help me score one of our generous referral bonuses.

For what it's worth, I'm just an engineer. My replies might not be immediate, sorry.
PhpStorm/WebIDE is definitely not a glorified text editor.

Editor is definitely the core but all the support tools make a big chunk of features and usage. Sure, I can get quite a lot of those features in Sublime with some packages but they aren't that well integrated and easy to use!
U.S. Doesn't Know How Many Foreign Visitors Overstay Visas
Thanks for that! The explanation is concise yet easy to understand.
Not sure if the author is in this thread but your article was great in both content and style. The point you were communicating was definitely not trivial: I hadn't thought of "what was said" vs "what as valued" that way before, or at least had not simplified that part of my mental model to see that. The way you communicated with examples was also spot on: at no point did I feel like I have to go back to read a certain part here or there to understand.

Excellent show!
So I keep telling clients: if we use WP for your low traffic site is like renting an 18-wheeler to move a small box. Yet, I feel like doctors must feel when patients argue 'quoting' something they read on the Internet: suddenly they are the experts now :(
Reverse – reverse engineering tool with pseudo-C output
For European business class short haul flights, it won't help. BA refitted their A319/A320/A321s some time around July 2014, which included reducing business pitch from 34" to 30". Lufthansa is the same [1][2][3]

EasyJet and other LCCs actually have a better proposition for leg room now, as you can pay for and select an extra leg-room seat at time of purchase.

(EDIT: pre-empting "there's no need for leg room on short flights", I'm talking about flights of up to ~5 hours)

Thanks!

My situation is indeed a bit different, since I'm hosting the fonts on my own webspace.

A big plus of Matthew Butterick's fonts: sane licensing. No need to estimate and document page views. No need to obfuscate fonts, in some vain exercise of thwarting font piracy. Just pay, host and serve.
And you can't with Rstudio? There's a freaking notebook feature built right in.
This thread is the most depressing thing I've read on Hacker News in months. I completely agree with you, dogma1138. You and I appear to be only ones who don't view the world through justice-colored glasses and who understand that attempting to enforce strict ideological conformity is self-defeating.
Not sure I follow, how would these scenarios be any different if a human was making the decision? Some humans will act with self interest, some with a utilitarianism, and some just simply will freeze. I'm not so sure it would make much a difference how the car chooses.

So, philosophical question aside, the concern for autonomous vehicle fleets having backdoor and being abused is more concerning..
Some days I wish I hadn't completely scrapped and deleted my Mac-only Clojure-only native IDE. It was fricken cool, even if it wasn't Emacs. I think that thing had promise. Welp.
We have a couple of similar sites here in NL, projected clean up time in the 100's of years. Very bad legacies from the time when the environment wasn't even on the radar of most governments and companies dumped their waste with abandon.
I'd like to ask: why even go with Wordpress in the first place? Aren't you suffering from the heavy cloud problem that he speaks about?

How a Film Projector Works
Close, but not quite. As others have pointed out, that's not new information either. The information given is the knowledge that everyone knows that everyone knows...that at least one person has blue eyes, to infinite depth. The key is that this knowledge was one level short of allowing the chain reaction to start prior to the announcement.
I feel like a good metric is how subjectively valuable the person's teammates feel that person is to the team when answering the question anonymously. Being socially awesome will only get you so far, eventually everyone on your team will realize you're not pulling your weight. And team members have a lot more visibility to a person's value than managers.
I don't know how to put this, but as leftist I've followed the discussion about safe spaces, GamerGate, "SJWs", minorities in tech, etc. with utter bewilderment. There is so much toxic language on both sides that I'm really at a loss here.

Most of the 'Anti-SJW' crowd seem to believe that a conservative, propagandist mouth-piece like Breitbart is a shining example of unbiased journalism. Ayn Rand seems to their demi-god and fat-shaming and victim blaming seems to be the norm. But this is not what really bothers me, because frankly, it's just the same-old stuff in new packaging. I expect nothing less from that crowd.

What bothers me is that the same techniques are being used on the side I identify myself with.

A lot of white men suffer. To me this is not just a question of race, color or gender, but of class and social dynamics. I find that a lot of the language used on the progressive side simply ignores this fact or even tries to deny it.

SEEKING WORK - Remote or On-site London

It's not only due to the people working on the site, but those paying to have it made too. A lot of clients also associate 'fancy' and 'complicated' with good, and then end up demanding every every feature and gimmick you can imagine in some attempt to look 'modern'.

So you end up with the designers, developers, content editors, SEOs, managers and clients all wanting different things at once, and none of them want to remove what's already there to lighten the load.
I upvoted you, because I think you are bringing up an important issue even if it is uncomfortable for us in the USA who believe in democracy on an almost religious level. This is something that John Stuart mill talked about; the fact that the life and welfare of a minority (say, Muslims or Jews in Germany) can trump the wishes of the majority. If an issue directly impacts you in that way then it might actually be terrible if the majority always gets their way. Gay rights might be another example- did the "moral majority" ever really have the right to deny gays the freedom to marry who they chose?
Diagnosing your opponents with mental disorders is precisely what Stalin did.
Depends on the kind of projects. In the "heavy" web framework category ("we take care of lots of the busy work for you"), an established project like Django can expect 256 commits a month:

https://github.com/django/django/pulse/monthly.

For rails, 468:

https://github.com/rails/rails/pulse/monthly

ExpressJS, on the other hand, only had 5 commits this past month, but one could argue that it's not as "heavy" as SailsJS and others are trying to be.

I agree commit count by itself is not a good pulse on a project's life, but, as this thread shows, there's a lot of issues left unresolved. Not mentioned yet one of the lead developers posted on Sails.js future right here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/node/comments/2p2i40/is_sailsjs_dea...

The most important line is:

> There's not much really left to add to Sails other than bug fixes at this point.

All these indicators together = a dead project.
Creating robot to look like middle-aged woman strikes me as brilliant.

When I search "android in movies" in google images, I can't see any.

Illusion is of course spoiled by clunky movement but I think imitating middle-aged (or even old) women (however sexist and ageist it sounds) might be low hanging fruit lying in the blind spot of android constructors.

Humans are much more tolerant about variability of old peoples skin and features. It kinda makes sense when even slight variation in young skin can indicate serious illness or defect but in old person can be safely ignored (because that person is not potential mate and probably wouldn't survive long with serious illness).
Is this an american weirdness? That sounds completely unreasonable.
Gambit Research Ltd (http://gambitresearch.com) | London, UK | On-site | Full time | Python/Erlang/DevOps | Experienced and Graduate Positions

At Gambit we research and manage automated sports betting algorithms on behalf of our clients. Their algorithms run on our proprietary execution platform which interfaces with a large variety of bookmakers and exchanges, enabling access to the best prices and massive liquidity.

Our distributed, concurrent system has a core written in Erlang, which interacts with a wide variety of Python processes across the rest of the business. There are also smaller projects written in C++, Go, Julia, and JavaScript.

We have a very flat hierarchy and an emphasis on developer freedom. We encourage people to work on areas of the code base that interest them, because we believe developers are happiest and most productive when intellectually stimulated.

We are looking for developers who have solid fundamentals in programming and maths and an ability to pick up new technologies. You don't need to be interested in sports or betting.

If this appeals to you, please email info@gambitresearch.com
I think it's more pernicious than that, they aren't ignorant of the content when they write headlines like that, they just don't care about the mismatch.
At least on the case of Air Canada and United, that's code-share flights. If you book via the Air Canada website it's very very obvious whether you're taking a real AC plane or not, but third party booking sites tend to hide that.

In case it helps, the United code-share flights are numbered AC[345]\d\d\d.

Adobe • NYC • ONSITE • Server-Side Developer, Infrastructure and Security • Full-time

The Aviary team was acquired by Adobe in October 2014 for its photo editing products. We provide mobile and web-based image processing APIs and stand alone applications for millions of users across thousands of partners. Since we've joined Adobe's Creative Cloud, we've grown quite a bit and are now searching for a talented server engineer. This position covers managing our AWS infrastructure, developing APIs in Node.js, ensuring uptime with extensive monitoring across our entire fleet of services, and working closely with security teams to ensure our products are secure.

You'll be joining a really fun, small team within a large organization. We still have a very "startup" atmosphere and unique culture while retaining the big company benefits as well.

If you're interested, the full job description is here [1]. You can also email me (address in profile), since this is currently my position. I'm going to be filling a need for my experience in another team shortly, but this position is one that I've grown a lot with and can talk directly about.

Keywords: NYC, New York City, infrastructure, devops, security, AWS, Node, server, backend

In university I learnt about the PQRST method:

1) Preview - browse through the text or chapter quickly. 2) Question - think about what this text is about. 3) Read. 4) Summary - make a summary. 6) Test.

This method actually was promoted in a psychology book about memory and memorizing. So not only did they teach about how memory works, but they gave tips how to memorize that, and on top of that they set up the complete book (which was about more than memory) that way. So the chapters in the book had some kind of "preview", a short intro about what the chapter was about, a summary and some test questions, with many pictures and side notes that kept you going.

VividCortex | Charlottesville, VA | INTERNS, ONSITE | https://www.vividcortex.com/

Local (Charlottesville area) candidates only, please!

VividCortex is the best way to see what production database systems are doing. Our database monitoring platform is used by major companies like King, GitHub, DigitalOcean, and Etsy to monitor their MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis servers.

We're looking for interns to join our young, lean, energetic company with a great get-it-done culture.

Our technology stack consists of AWS, Kafka, MySQL, and Go on the backend; Symfony, AngularJS, and D3 on the frontend. Our exciting technical challenges include high-performance database protocol decoding, statistical anomaly detection, adaptive fault detection, time series storage, and stream processing.

Interested? Please contact me at preetam [at] vividcortex.com!
Took over a year to find the right direction and didn't start building the product until the end of August. This stuff takes a lot of time. When I was young I never understood the unhygienic programmer stereotype. Now I have become its embodiment.
Using Big Data to Analyse Mengele, Hitler and Bin Laden
Off topic to bloated web sites, but: I like the subscription models of JetBrains, Office 365, etc. Long term, I think this business model will enable tighter more focused products because the "add new features to get update revenue" goes away.
This is a very good proposal.

I would love to teach youths and women in a developing country about how to start a small scale business with at least USD100. I would want to reach out to at least 1,000 participants every month and take the project to every part of the country. And I would give them manuals, help them begin and stabilize.

If I could have your email address, I will send the details to you.

Thank you very much.

$ (1..10) |> Enum.map(&(&1**&1)) |> Enum.filter(&(&1 < 40))

This is the equivalent of this piping op done in terse style JS:

[for (i of Array(10).keys()) ++i].map(e=> e*e ).filter(e=> e<40 )

This is not as concise as the example you provided but it's still very neat and powerful.
Oligarchs from the 90s are nothing compared to oligarchs we have right now. Russia has never been more corrupt and dysfunctional.
Not knowing Elixir at all, what's with all the & operators in your pipe example? Looks very unappealing to me.

This is pretty old and the title should reflect that. The versions of the software used are ancient by many people's standards: Linux 2.6.24 (released six years ago, in January 2008), ext2 file system (ext3 was introduced in the 2.4 series, seven years before that kernel release), gcc 4.2.4 (also 2008, 4.2 series is from 2007), cmake 2.4.7 (2007). Overall it seems like these undated measurements were performed in early 2008, nearly six years ago. A lot has changed since then and I don't see how this article in its current form should still be relevant today.
