Nylas | https://nylas.com/ | San Francisco, CA (Mission) | Frontend (JS), Backend (Systems+Ops)

Hi! We're Nylas. We build N1, the extensible, open source email client, and the infrastructure powering it. We're looking for fronted application engineers (React, Electron, JS), designers, backend systems engineers, & infrastructure/operations engineers.

We recently launched N1, have accumulated 15K stars on GitHub, and are looking for core application engineers to design an extensible platform around email, calendar, and contacts. You'll not only use modern web tech to build a better email experience, you'll design the developer platform to power the next generation of email apps. See more about N1 here: https://nylas.com/N1 & code: https://github.com/nylas/N1

We have more data for a single user than in most startups' entire database. We're scaling heavily and if you have experience with automated deployments, debugging running systems, release engineering, and on-call schedules, but are still comfortable writing code, we're for you. :)

We take pride in the diverse culture we've built and are looking for more than raw technical talent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7sHc4P4zPg

== We're particularly looking for folks who ==

* Take personal pride in their work and value autonomy and ownership

* Want the chance to step up and lead a team

* Put the work before ego. We've got each others' backs, and we want you to be with us on that

== A bit more about us ==

* Our backend is built on Python, Flask, gevent, nginx, MySQL, AWS, and Debian. We've been careful to keep our architecture componentized.

* N1 uses javascript (ES6), React, Flux, SQL for offline caching, Electron, and no jQuery

* Tons of our code is open source. Check it out: https://github.com/nylas

* We're a team of 20 (12 engineers, 3 engineering interns)

* We have a paid vacation policy & value personal responsibility and ownership. Benefits include free Lyft to & from the office, full health, dental, vision, and lunch every day. Some remote work / work-from-home is OK too

Apply at https://nylas.com/jobs or ping me directly (spang@nylas). I'm Christine, one of our co-founders. We're a diverse team, and encourage applications from all backgrounds.

Judson Company | Decatur, AL | REMOTE | Contractors Roles: Frontend Engineer

We're a small team (with an existing ecommerce business) working on a new platform for curated commerce. We handle product acquisition and fulfillment, and allow curators to create on-brand selling experiences.

Because we're a small team, we're looking for someone who is very comfortable taking charge of the frontend process, and also comfortable with some backend work if the need arises. In general, an ability to get things done will go a long way.

Our Stack:
- PHP 7 / JS / MySQL
- Sphinx Search
- Snowplow

Email Jud@Judson.biz - Would love to see any side projects, Github, past/current work.

PayPal | San Jose, CA | Onsite (relocation available) | Hiring Javascript Application Engineers

PayPal is looking for JavaScript engineers who want to work both in the browser and on the server-side in Node.js. Over the past couple of years, we've worked hard to migrate our entire web application stack to Node and powerful client-side apps and we're looking to turn the dial towards product experimentation and innovation. We need your engineering ability and your desire to be a part of the whole product!

I personally lead the Online Checkout (exactly what it sounds like, "Pay with PayPal") engineering team and I'm happy to talk with you directly. You can reach out to me at my HN username at paypal.com or nodejs@paypal.com.
We're looking for experienced JavaScript developers. My team is currently working primarily with Angular on the client and Kraken on Node. If you've got experience with React, we're actively exploring doing an inside-out migration of our application and could use your expertise. As most Node shops go, we're leveraging a whole lot of other open source tools as well and we're very supportive of open source activities for our people.

We have several openings within my team as well as within other teams--so drop me a line even if my particular opening doesn't sound interesting and I'll help you find the right place!
GopherCon 2016 Speakers Announced
Hold on. I'm not answering anything else in this comment until you acknowledge that opposition to American neo-Nazism isn't "leftism". I have plenty of conservative friends, and am interested enough in conservative ideas that half of HN seems to think I work for the GOP. None of them would share a room with Rushton. The first person you cited in this discussion helmed an organization whose charter was to create an American Lebensborn system. Not, like, "something that would effectively function like the Lebensborn", but literally take the template of the Lebensborn and apply it America.

I hate GPS with a passion : it makes you dumb. Don't think and just follow the synthesized voice.

Knowing where you are is a skill that gets better when you use it and that rusts when you don't. This is why I still use a paper map in my car or in the woods, it forces me to think and it's very gratifying when you realize that you know exactly where you are and what path to take.

Admittedly I still use my smartphone when I don't have time to wander a bit.
LiftIgniter (YC W14) - https://www.liftigniter.com | San Francisco, CA | ONSITE, VISA | Machine Learning Engineer

LiftIgniter delivers billions of personalized recommendations and experiences every month, on some of the largest websites across the world. Building machine learning products at this scale is extremely hard, and not well solved by existing academic literature. At the same time, a few extra points in improvement can mean millions in incremental revenue, and the difference between success and failure. So we innovate, at the cutting edge. Our current team of ex-IMO, IOI, Phds from MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, Princeton love the challenges. If you’re excited by the problem and team, we should talk!

Key requirements:

- Strong background in linear algebra, analysis and statistics

- Very strong software design skills

- Solid foundations in algorithms and data-structures

- Good performances in IMO / IOI / ACM-ICPC a plus

- PhD in Math / Statistics / Machine learning a plus

Have you tried Workflowy? It's the simplest thing on the Earth, but it's so flexible you can use it for anything, from grocery lists to project management.
Twitter Has Lost a Staggering Amount of Money
Thanks for posting this! I've been dragging my feet about learning react for a week or so now and I think this will push me over the edge. Much appreciated.
Unfortunately, I agree.

As the sole developer of the entire platform ( with no background in graphic design or any design budget ), it's been difficult for me to make the project look nice.

The entire thing is 100% open-source. If anyone wants to help with design, please reach out at: support@marak.com
Yeah, the nice thing about animation as a medium that makes it especially well suited to science fiction, fantasy, and any other surreal genre is that you only have to suspend your disbelief once -- that these animated characters are real -- and then you get all the special effects for free.

If Ghost in the Shell were live action, chances are the robots, the invisibility, the cybernetics, the cyberspace would look totally lame, because you'd have to suspend your disbelief for each of these effects individually. But once you suspend your disbelief for the medium, you can just sit back and enjoy.
There are cities that are much denser than London, though. For instance, Paris, or for a much more extreme example, Kowloon Walled City. Paris is probably not overly dense, but I think KWC definitely is.
What would make Remote Year useful?
agreed.. hate these algorithmic questions... very applicable if you just finished taking a comp sci midterm.

I would venture to say there are a small set of positions where you'd use these exact skills on a fairly frequent basis.
We both agree. Anonymous Chinese government official statements are two layers of bullshit. Quoted officials are one.
> Which group resulted in major restrictions to UK freedoms?

The one that didn't have American citizens, politicians, and organizations bankrolling and lobbying for it.
I hit a challenge that had me stumped, and I had to ask a coworker for help. It turned out to be legitimately difficult. Now we were both stumped.

We got some coffee, doubled down, and paired for a while. Eventually, a moment of brilliance was struck from our combined brainpower. Commits were made, tests passed, QA signed off, and a deployment pushed. High fives and Ice Cube's "It Was a Good Day" ensued.
Certainly not, but dismissing a human death like "oh by the way they just ran over a cat" is not warranted either imo.
Two words:

Internet Explorer.

Unless you're a startup and don't have to give a damn about what browsers your users use, IE marketshare is just too big to ignore. And depending on your audience, IE can mean anything from IE11 all the way back to IE8.

Theoretically IE is irrelevant now that Microsoft has started publicly killing it off, but you'd be surprised at the number of corporate users that are still on Windows XP (or maybe Vista/7) running IE 8 and 9.

Of course evergreen browsers are less of a problem but amazingly a lot of the same users who are stuck with IE also manage to have extremely outdated versions of Firefox.
Military issue equipment is often low quality[1][2]. Intel and recon is oft contracted to a similar standard. I'm not surprised that they choose Waze over the alternative.

Recurly | San Francisco or Boulder | Full-time | Onsight | https://recurly.com/jobs/

Recurly was born in 2009 from the changing needs of businesses. With the industry’s movement to subscription-based models, the need for a sophisticated recurring payment management platform has exploded.

On the surface, subscription billing sounds easy: charge a credit card a certain amount every month. But companies of all sizes have discovered that managing recurring billing is significantly more challenging than processing one-time payments.

By automating the complexities of subscription billing management, Recurly helps businesses eliminate the pain of scaling recurring billing operations with an easy, self-serve, pay-as-you-go platform.

We're looking for folks who have an understanding of Ruby, Java, Spring/Spring-Data/JPA, Mysql, RabbitMQ, APIs, Sidekiq, and other technologies. All open jobs are listed here: https://recurly.com/jobs/

If you're interested, shoot an email to cbunting@recurly.com to chat.

> SF: The frat boys have won, the nerds are a long-gone memory, the city is eating itself with brogrammers

Bravo! What we have in SF are the social dynamics of Mad Men with the supposed trappings of "geekdom." There's still bullying, it just doesn't happen in the locker room, and the pretexts have different texts.
We were relying on Mandrill to send a lot of emails. The problem with Mailgun, Sendgrid and others is that they're too expensive, which means they're unaffordable by our bootstrapped startup. Is there any service that has pricing similar to Mandrill?
drdaeman says that Curve25519 isn't usable with X.509 and TLS. Your reply is "Use Curve25519". What are you saying? That drdaeman is wrong, and Curve25519 can be used with TLS? Or are you saying, "don't use TLS"? Or... what?
Perhaps people thought I was dissing the 'burbs?

Wasn't my intention, in any case. I was really just trying to point out, as dispassionately as possible, that (like many disagreements people have about major life choices) it boils down to preferences of values and taste -- and the inevitable tradeoffs was have to make when choosing to pursue these preferences.

Indeed -- some of my favorite people on this planet have homes with more bedrooms, bathrooms, parking spaces, living rooms, extra playrooms, etc, than they could possibly know what to do with. And I love them all dearly, just the same.

The major point of OPs statement is that while sometimes you can get lucky for a short period of time (which is what you just cherrypicked), for an endowment you can't really do stuff like that because you are so big and have such a long term perspective. Regardless, I'm not seeing the narrative you describe in your graph.
My point was that if you want to, meeting a lot of women is not hard. Young people in SF date a lot.

If anything, the hard part is finding someone who is willing to commit. Granted, I have a skewed sample because of how I met people, but most of my friends are facing that issue. Easy to date, hard to relationship.
When establishing the EPA, Congress wrote a law saying "All dangerous chemicals will be banned. The EPA will define what 'dangerous chemicals' means." (Actually, the first iteration of the EPA just gave grants to local organizations to clean up pollution, but I'm ignoring that for the moment.)

'Is this chemical dangerous?' is a specific question with a specific scientific and medical answer. 'Is this a dangerous use of federal power?' is an inherently subjective question. So, that would be one reason why your example doesn't raise the same constitutional concerns as the FBI's request.

Second, being able to ban chemicals is a power that is much more limited than the power to make arbitrary companies do arbitrary things.
Love Golang, Docker and distributed systems?

What would data analytics infrastructure (namely Hadoop) look like if we rebuilt it from scratch today? We think it would be containerized, modular, and easy enough for a single person to use while still being scalable enough for a whole company. Tools like Docker and Kubernetes provide the perfect building blocks for us revolutionize data infrastructure!

Pachyderm is hiring early engineers to be part of our core team! We went through YC W15, raised a strong seed round($2M), and are looking for someone to join and help lead our core engineering team. Pachyderm is just 4 people right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company as well as building the rest of the engineering team.

We pay competitive SF-level salaries along with significant equity, full benefits, and all the usual startup perks. This position is based in SF, but we offer full relocation assistance.

You can view it as induction, although the general case is slightly different. In the general case you have a while loop with some condition and invariant, and after the while loop stops your invariant is true and the condition is false, if you've done things correctly this then implies your 'goal'.

So to find a minimum in a list A[1],A[2],...,A[n] you can something like:

i := 1;
// Invariant: A[min] is the smallest in {A[1], ..., A[i]}
while not i = n do begin
if A[i+1] < A[min] then min:= i+1;
i:= i+1;
end

The negation of the condition: 'i = n', combined with the invariant: 'A[min] is the minimum of {A[1], ..., A[i]}', gives you the result you wanted.

Which one are you referring to specifically?
I don't know a whole lot about this area either, but it looks more like this is allowing for the queueing system used by each block device to offer a choice to the user (via sysfs). The user can set it to use this new mechanism if they want which should have significant speed gains for devices which have little latency between a request for a read/write and the data being actually read or written.

In short: I don't think this has anything to do with programs at all. This looks like it has nothing to do with userspace and I believe it's just the locking mechanism on the device.
Simple reciprocity.
We haven't exactly spelled out the terms precisely, but the spirit of the wager is that self-driving cars will be involved somehow. Certainly public transit could be part of a mix of transportation options, but I wouldn't win if self-driving cars don't come to fruition yet she doesn't get a driving license because she can subsist entirely on public transit.
Why we are switching to Redux
Problems greater than inflation. Overproduction incentivizes dumping, which results in backlash from trading partners. It is also used to finance regional and local governments, which incentivizes overproduction and waste of resources. Sure, the thousands of construction workers making ghost cities get paid, but someone has to pay them. Not to mention the rampant corruption that occurs like magic when you mix money and power with a dash of unaccountability.
