Kiliaro | Stockholm | https://kiliaro.com/ | Mobile Developer

Kiliaro is looking for someone with a passion developing in Swift on iOS.

Kiliaro is an application which store and organise photos and videos from all devices. We're a totally independent player. We don’t use peoples photos and videos for marketing purposes or sell their details.

The company consists of a small but experienced team hailing from Spotify, Klarna and TradeDoubler. We love free software and hope to make as much of our apps and platform open.

If this sounds fun, reach out to orion@kiliaro.com.
I would characterize it as more of a joint sovereignty pact, with all agreeing to accept a currency, and all in a mutual defense organization. It's not a pure federal government, but it's at least a confederacy.

But, to address the elephant in the room, as one can see from recent events divorcing fiscal union from monetary union can have some very detrimental effects.
> You actually can't.

I had to download Reddit Enhancement Suite today (where I previously didn't bother at work) only to be able to hide r/The_Donald from r/all. It's just fucking everywhere, I can't take it. 50% of the posts are doomsday prophecies and just pure and utter shit. During every US election this happens, and your/their election process is so long you're basically wading in bullshit for 2 years.
There isn't always a position open, you can't assume that every company had unlimited funds to hire unlimited engineers.

For example at my company we keeep several slots a year open for co-ops but not that many full-time positions open up. But we aren't in SV so I guess it may be different for huge SV companies who churn through employees.
Do you know how Bitcoin insures the code reviews are done and there's not bias in the review process?
It's also brand awareness and marketing. Said student goes back to their university and starts spreading the word on campus about "how awesome my summer was working for X!" and how many "interesting" problems they got to solve.

Many places will set aside specific, "interesting" side projects solely for the interns (while the rest of us engineers wish we could work on these projects, but are busy with the mundane tasks of keeping the lights on, which I imagine if you gave an intern this task they wouldn't be so thrilled to go spread the word when they go back, so yeah there's definitely marketing involved.)
The clacking is entirely from bottoming out the key with browns and reds. O-Rings will take there of most of this for you, as will not typing with such force that you bottom out the keys. You generally have a good cm of travel after actuating the key during which you can let up with no appreciable impact to your typing.

The unit production cost (the cost of building an aircraft, not including amortized R&D) for the F-22A is about 50% higher than for the F-35A. You could certainly argue that two F-22As is better than three F-35As, but that is an issue that needs to be considered.

Furthermore, the F-22A was already running into parts obsolescence issues when I was working on it (2002 - 2006). Those would have continued to get worse had production expanded or continued. The F-35A was (supposedly) designed to better handle those issues.

You can read more about us at http://press.wayup.com.

We are one of the quickest-growing companies from our batch (we launched a little over a year ago and we're already 32+ people!), and we're growing out our engineering team and looking for great hackers who love getting features in the hands of users. We're absolutely obsessed with our users and making the experience of finding a job better, and you should be too. We raised our Series A and we're looking for all types of roles:

- Senior Engineering Lead (Python, previous leadership experience - help us scale our team and develop great engineering processes)

- Javascript developer. We use Angular primarily and have recently begun using React. Prior experience with either is a plus but not required.

Collective Health, ( https://collectivehealth.com/jobs/ ), San Mateo, CA (Full time, ONSITE only, VISA-depends, see below)

We're replacing health insurance with a system that members love. Using our SW, platform and services, an employer can pay doctors directly, saving a ton of money and making the employee experience amazing (with the testimonials to back it up).

The company is well-funded, ~two years old and growing very rapidly with massive sales traction (300x this past year and on pace for another order of magnitude this year). We punch well above our weight-class with experienced founders, ~200 team members (~ one quarter is engineering), and paying customers.

Our tech stack is a mix of Go and Java components with Angular on the front end. We use a custom service bus to tie our SOA together, microservices style. We love Docker, CoreOS, postgres, automated testing, and continuos integration.

As a company, we're strong believers in transparency, trust and balance. As an engineering team, we believe good code is easy to read and should have a short "time to understanding". We expect all of our engineers to continually teach as well as learn. We also believe that everyone should write good code, yet balance that against the need to ship.

We've got a ton of interesting problems to solve around distributed systems, data analytics and predictions, complex data modeling, ultra high-availability, security, privacy and more.

We're currently looking for experienced SW engineers up and down the stack, back end, infrastructure, data, dev ops, test, generalist, etc. Our biggest needs are DevOps, FE, and SW Engineers in Test (you will be writing cluster level end2end tests, not unit tests), and Backend Engineers.

All open jobs: http://grnh.se/8f7q15

If you are non-technical, but are interested in experiencing a hyper-growth startup, we also are hiring for JIRA workflow automation, operations, business development and other roles as well. If you care about such things, we were recently flattered/embarrassed to be highlighted as one of fifty potential next unicorns by the nytimes: http://nyti.ms/1JLKaCT

We're super proud of the company mission, engineering culture and tech stack we've put together and would love a chance to explain it all in detail!

SEEKING WORK - Remote

Highly skilled at:
* Django and full-stack web development (8+ years)
* System administration (Debian Developer, etc.)
* Almost any open source work (see https://chris-lamb.co.uk/posts/free-software-activities-in-a... for recent example)

If you are in search of a reputable software developer with a track record of producing high-quality and maintainable code, please get in touch to discuss your needs. As former Technical Architect at Thread.com (YC S12) and Playfire.com I was responsible for two major Django codebases, receiving acclaim from my peers for scaling both the site and the codebase in a maintainable and reliable manner whilst still delivering features at an extremely fast pace.

In addition to significant development on the products themselves, I was sole
system administrator, deploying servers and performing low-level diagnostics to investigate performance, security and configuration issues. I also introduced quality assurance tools such as configuration management (Ansible, Salt, cdist), continuous integration/deployment (Jenkins) and code review to detect mistakes and regressions as early as possible.

As a freelancer, I have debugged, designed, and implemented projects in C, C++, Python, Java, Bash/POSIX shell, etc., and I also have assisted technical teams with their infrastructure and architecture so they can deliver better results faster. Native English speaker.

SEEKING FREELANCER

Santa Cruz, CA - team is 100% Remote.

North American time zone required. Unfortunately this is a hard requirement. "I am willing to work on US time zone" is not good enough (it lasts for a little while and then I start to feel bad about waking you up :)

Fluent English a huge bonus.

Technologies: iOS (obj-c) and Android.

Familiarity with: github, CI, various SDKs (marketing, tech, etc)

I am looking for more team members for AppAftercare, my app maintenance business. The work is unusual (mostly small fixes and tweaks) as is the way I want you to work (need to be pretty responsive to issues as submitted, but can be fitted around other project work you might have) and the way I compensate (a fixed monthly, per-app fee regardless of workload).

Most of our developers use us to fill out gaps in their freelancing schedule and get some guaranteed income.

Am also looking for iOS and Android developers looking for part time work (eg 1 full week/month for several months in a row)

Please email me with GitHub repo links as well as links to apps in production + your current hourly rate and location.

OTOH, it is a groundswell in the engineering community to notice the medical application. Interdisciplinarians are the hugely valuable applied scientists who unlock the power of ideas.
WTF are you talking about? Can you point to any modern political leaders who are not narcissists? And if you can find any who are genuinely not narcissistic, they're surely sociopathic.

It's nearly impossible to get anywhere in politics without one or both of these qualities. And people like you happily elect them. ("People like you" being a voter in a democratic republic. If you vote, you're most likely guilty of helping to elect narcissistic and/or sociopathic people to power. There's probably almost no one on this message forum who isn't guilty of this.)
I sympathize with your sentiment, but the amount of mails academics get from people who says they want do work in their group is just overwhelming. Mostly it is Chinese and Indians who want to do a PhD or a postdoc in the group. Those who doesn't make it clear that they understand more than superficially what your position is and what the research group is doing will be rudely ignored.

Heathrow has something similar - never ceases to amaze me how poorly planned many US airports are in comparison to European ones, and how little space they actually allow for screening
That may be factually true. But only now that everyone has stopped smoking do we actually talk about "smoking addiction." Back when everyone did it, it wasn't treated as an addiction with us blaming individual smokers for smoking. It was treated as a public health problem, and ultimately the blame was laid at the feet of the tobacco industry.
Timezones, for one thing.
These companies have co-ops year-round, how is that not effectively the same thing as paying an annualized salary for that work?

> Well, I have never seen a healthcare system that works well for non-deadly issues like back pain

As above, see the UK for a good example. TBH, I don't really know how healthcare works anywhere but the UK and US, but I had sort of assumed that other EU countries had a similar universal system to that of the UK.

> people that can pay your healthcare bills are going to be scarcer and scarcer

Your point has some validity, but tax revenues do not just come from personal income tax. Corporation tax, VAT, petroleum tax, council tax, insurance tax, air tax, road tax... christ, there is hardly anything that isn't taxed!

Bangalore, India. Many Positions. Full time.

I have taken up a role to build a payment network from scratch, out of Bangalore, India. It is funded by a big corporation, but will be arms-distance from their central business.

It is a large, complex and fascinating problem to crack. The potential to bring banking to 600 million un/underbanked Indians is what excited me to work on this.

We are looking to hire a good core team of full time math, physics and CS majors, UI UX and product managers, who will work of Bangalore, India.

We are open to hiring people from around the world but they will need to work out of Bangalore. Looking for fulltime and in exceptional cases, consultants, welcome.

I have posted and have hired a few good candidates from Who's Hiring threads.

Since my first post, we have now released a product and also secured a payment bank license.

We also have our payment network baked into banks and mass transit.

In the past I have built both fast-data and big-data companies and have a few patents in this space.

These all look like clustering based on a 2d space, but does anyone know methods to tackle clustering on a network?

Is it just a matter of tweaking the definition of density / distance to the number of hops, or is it a different problem entirely? I can see how with 0 or 1 hops the data would be a very smushed distribution, versus 2d distance is much more rich and spread out.

If this is a honest mistake, at the very least, it shows some lack of professionalism or proof reading. And it should not be the code that have been used, because it should not work. Kinda weird when you are supposed to give step by step instructions.
