Sourceress | San Francisco Bay Area, CA | Full-time | Onsite (remote possible, see below)

We're a (human-assisted) AI sourcing platform that delivers great results (customer quote: "I'd have a panic attack if you guys stopped existing"). As a result, we have a very long waiting list of customers and no public presence or press--we're focused on building and delivering. One of our founders is very technically talented and sold a company before, and the other was the Chief of Staff at Dropbox.

1st engineer: (very significant equity possible)

We're looking for an amazingly talented, productive engineer. There's an opportunity to work on everything from really interesting NLP / ML problems to much simpler features that make a real direct impact on customers, and help shape and grow the engineering team (looking to expand.) Strong familiarity with Python is a requirement, and familiarity with Django, AWS, PostgreSQL and Javascript are all bonuses.

Is this an April Fools reply?

What you are saying is that we should build an economy of ticket clippers on top of very few who actually generate physical wealth. How is that efficient? Some other economy will come along without all the ''efficiency'' overhead and eat your lunch.
Excellent idea. I have a couple of suggestions in case you would like to get in touch and have a discussion.
> Tor exit nodes were far more likely to contain malicious requests

That's comparing apples to oranges though. A lot of different people send requests from tor exit nodes. That might be comparable to some corporate networks, but many IP addresses are used by only one person (or a family).

Intuition would suggest that tor traffic is more likely to be malicious than average traffic, but suppose there are 500 tor exit nodes in the world, and 1 malicious tor user: then 1 in 500 tor-exit node IPs would have sent a malicious request!
What a pointless article, it doesn't actually addressed its own headline...
Given Cloudflare appears to have received National Security Letters, it's possible their is no answers.

That said, based on what I know, the answer is to whitelist the TOR IPs, give TOR users a global session that the user has the option to opt into (likely make sense for TOR publish what the impact of this is and Cloudflare to link to it in from that page) and always let users know a global session is set in case the user believe that using TOR they reset the session; resetting it via Cloudflare would be meaningless. General gist though is humans are not bots, don't behave as bots, and Cloudflare treats ever request as the same from an IP, which is a poor way to block bots.
It's hard to screw things up too badly with something like the flight simulator. It's just a hidden toy completely disconnected from the rest of the program.

But when you start messing with the user's content as a joke, god help you.
NCC Group (formerly Matasano Security, iSEC Partners, and Intrepidus Group) - Austin, Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, and Sunnyvale, CA

Nothing is genuine today. The posts in your feed are all gags, and you have to convince your relatives that no, Trader Joe's isn't closing all of its locations, UNCLE KEN. The only thing that is real, that can be counted on 365 days a year, is that NCC Group is always looking for great security minds.

If you’re a tinkerer, you enjoy breaking more than building, or someone who wonders “why” and ends up down the rabbit hole 36 hours later with a disassembled air conditioning unit surrounding them... we’d love to hear from you! Our process welcomes those with years of experience, as well as those with little to no direct experience in what we do.

The bottom line: if you love security and research, NCC Group just may be a perfect fit for you.

What do we do exactly? Penetration testing, security analysis, and cutting-edge research into current technologies and attacks (breaking things). You spend most of your day thinking about security systems and how they can break. You get to be creative and have a lot of freedom to be clever while learning new technologies at a very fast pace. Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use. You will have access to senior engineers/architects and your findings/ideas will be heard by senior decision makers. You will have enormous impact in making the software people use safer.

All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

I must say this is one of the best comments I have seen on HN. I don't know if this helps you meditate on the game or not, but this is how I walk though the logic.

1/3 of the time you picked correct: 100% of those worlds he shows a goat. 1/3 of the time you picked wrong and he shows a goat. 1/3 of the time you picked wrong and he shows a car.

So your overall odds are 1/3 of winning if you don't change AND 1/3 of the time you don't get the chance to change.

Thus, your overall chances of winning in this case is 1/3. But, if he shows you a goat your odds are bumped to 1/3: 1/3 or 50/50.

Underdog.io | New York, NY | https://underdog.io | Full-Time | ONSITE

We’re looking to hire two full-stack engineers. Ideally, one would be a Javascript/Node.js Engineer and the other would be a Python Engineer.

Today, Underdog.io is a curated marketplace for talent. We connect amazing people with founders, hiring managers, and recruiters at top technology companies.

We’re building technology to reduce the noise of the job search and match. We started Underdog.io because we experienced the pains associated with (1) hiring while working at top startups and (2) looking for new opportunities.
Our platform is currently live in SF, NYC, and for remote companies. We work with over 200 awesome companies. Quality is key to our model -- we turn away one of every two companies that have tried to join the network. We've proudly bootstrapped and profitable.

As we scale, we’ll focus on building tools for candidates to organize, search, and discover new job opportunities. In our view of the future, job candidates don’t receive as much unsolicited outreach from recruiters. Job search is organized and talented candidates have more high-quality options.

We use Python/Flask, Javascript/Node.js, PostgreSQL, Elastic Search, AWS. We're also working on a project in Ruby/Sinatra. And we're big supporters of open source.

Indeed. It calculates what a 10% stake would be worth now, but it is highly unlikely that he would still be a 10% owner even if he had stayed the course. It is not as though Steve Jobs still held 45% of the company at the time of his death.

There are so many sites that I would love to see implement cli interfaces for. HN is one. tldp.org, die.net, etc.

I'm sure many of them have a lynx-useable page, but having a standardized cli interface to these would be super-useful to me as well.
Pretty cool! Makes me feel a little like I'm drawing with Rubik's snakes. ;)

First time I somehow didn't notice the color picker, which is simple & effective. Having a couple preset colors already there might not hurt though?
What don't you like about Thunderbird? I was about to recommend it as an email client to a client but hadn't heard any overt criticisms. Is it good at security but bad at UI?
That's definitely a legitimate point, but not the main point IMHO. The main point is that Tor makes zero effort to clean up the problem and uses the legitimate Tor users as helpless, scapegoated victims and a bullying tactic. "But think of the oppressed users!" Sorry, not buying it.

The blacklisted IP lifetime problem is real though. It's a problem I've had to raise several times with our product and network teams. People would see an abusive IP and just ban it...without a TTL or lifetime. This really upset me as they seemed to think that was OK not just for the time being, but that it was good enough. When I describe IPv6 to them, their faces just melt as it sinks in that they can't just keep banning IP's and must do something higher up the stack to detect and block fraud.

After being frustrated by out of the box warehouse systems, we rolled our own. LAMP stack backend, dashing for the metrics boards and our scanners are Dolphin 70e devices running Android 4.4 which are installed with a custom java application developed using the Android SDK. We continue to build onto the system and are looking for in house help.

Junior candidates are welcome as lead developer mentorship is available.

As it is warehouse dev, it pays to be able to walk out to run packages and build face to face relationships with the warehouse team, hence the on site requirement.

20 Classic Role-Playing Games You Need to Play
Religious people are less intelligent. People who are less intelligent tend to be happier.
Wow, what an incredibly, obviously bad idea. I spotted this last night and immediately realized how this would go down. If you have 900 million users (as gmail does) and you add a button right next to the send button that also has the word "send" on it, you are going to have a significant numbers of users send emails using that button! AND it adds a gif AND it archives the email thread AND those features aren't explained when you hover over the button! I have a feeling the vast majority of gmail users don't know how to find their archived email threads, so those users will never see the replies to the email they sent. The gmail team was asleep at the wheel on this one.
Yes, the word "bug" isn't restricted to only implementation, but it certainly has that connotation. In deanCommie's case, it sounds like the PM is using the existing connotation of the word "bug" to assign blame to the implementation when it correctly implements the broken design.

When the list of "bugs" are used in performance metrics which affect your career, correctly assigning blame becomes important.

SEEKING FREELANCER: remote, though I am in South Florida

Technical product manager, preferably a CEO-wannabe

I need somebody who can be a thinker. Your job is not to do the work/coding; it is to decide what needs to be done and to do a good job directing others in doing it.

Part-time, 5 hour/week small project to start. If we work well together, can increase to as much as you want or full-time.

Types of tasks available:
- technical:
- - improve current products and user experience
- - create new, related ones (MVPs) from scratch
- website growth. Do what needs to be done for continued growth.
- if you are interested: work with me and others: strategic planning, online advertising, content creation

Technologies used: MariaDB, C#, JS, etc. Knowledge of C# and all that goes with it not required.

You would have a background in coding and managing people and projects, and an interest in the full range of tasks of running an online business. Ideally, you would do much of my job as founder.

We would start with a small project, then move on to bigger ones.

Established ad-supported website with millions of users.

Please contact me at the email address in my profile if interested.
Really wish that we had a good, fast, Thunderbird alternative by now other than MS Outlook. But everyone seems to assume that you are supposed to use a web client like gmail now.

Yes, I think that the more revealing ratio would have been total malicious requests to all requests for each class of IP. If each Tor exit node is sending out 30x as much traffic, with an average of 30 unique users per IP, then the cited ratios are meaningless.

The only thing that can be drawn from that data is that Tor makes IP-based reputation tools ineffective. The thing is, for many people that may be enough to justify what Cloudflare is doing.
This is really nice for those of us who run vintage computers (e.g. Apple II) with ethernet adapters. I hope they keep this around.
I think I am seeing a very patronizing smug here on HN.

> If you actually study a bit about China

I grow up in China, and I know that the root problem is that it's a one-party state. There is no election whatsoever and the country is owned and abused by princelings and government officials. Rural areas are underfunded and manipulated so that resources are concentrated in the major cities. The justice system is not broken, but has never been built. Thought crimes don't only exist but are also prosecuted. With all these serious problems, you are telling me rumors are a huge problem?

Rumors are just a proxy. People are concerned about regional instability and human rights abuse, aren't they??

You're trying to compare the cheapest Model 3 with the most expensive Model S, which explains the discrepancy. Only the P85D/P90D get from 0-60 in less than 4 seconds, and I'm sure the top end Model 3 will be similar.

>Given that this is an electric car, and that its size and weight are commensurable to the (presumably) smaller electric motor, I would expect it to have similar 0-60 times.

And so it does! The fastest RWD Model S has a 0-60 of 5.4 seconds. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Model_S#Specifications

To get sub-4 seconds you need to add a second motor (and larger motors for the "P" versions), which Tesla made optional to keep the base price down.

Also peak battery power limits the 0-60. Again to keep the base price down the cheapest Model 3 has a smaller battery than the S, which tends to reduce peak power and therefore acceleration. That explains the performance drop from 5.4s to <6s.
I think its safe to assume they already have.
My agency is composed of a few freelancers: maybe that's his situation, as well?

> I know Tor doesn't want to be in the network regulation business, but ....

That is exactly why there is a Tor. Tor is for enabling anonymous communication. Now deciding who can do what or why would limit use and that would limit its ability to anonymous communication.
