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.

Link to recent Medium post: https://medium.com/@cmuir/lessons-from-sixteen-months-of-boo...

Email chris@underdog.io to apply.

Because we're still a small team, we're not able to accommodate recent bootcamp graduates. No recruiters or dev shops, please. =/

Maybe you're being downvoted for your blunt pessimism, but I think this is the most likely endgame. Complicated old ideas on complicated new technology by untrusted and unknown entities. What could go wrong?
Well ahead of the other major players. Well done.
Funny, I wanted to do the same stuff on the same board by converting my current C implementation to Ada, it ended up in a disaster, the compiler wouldn't run on my mac (so I used a linux simulator), the real-time feature of Ada were actually clocked on a fixed SYSTICK, and most of the Ada tools were randomly crashing.

the plugin I started writing at the time: https://github.com/nraynaud/ada-intellij

We're a custom application development consultancy that specializes in taking our client's data and building custom applications around that data from the ground up.
Interview process: quick coding challenge (very easy, takes 30 minutes max), 2 phone screens (HR and then a technical with one of our leads), and an in person. Usually takes 2 to 3 weeks to complete the process. Our interview process does not suck. If you're sharp but blow the coding assessment or don't have the time for it, we'll figure out another way to assess your skill. Point being, we're flexible, we just want to hire the right folks.
We're looking for full stack .NET devs who've recently switched over to the MEAN stack. Any machine learning or data science experience is a huge plus. Take a look here: http://www.dragonspears.com/careers
Ha, brilliant - I always thought it was just the UK that had this problem. End to end high speed rail is hard and embarrassment on behalf of governments is a good motivating factor.
This is a good summary, thanks. And yeah, I only meant to speak to the argument in the comments over how many cycles we can "fit" in the next 20 years.

I think a lot of VR's biggest hurdles for that time aren't dependent on processing power. Focus and resolution issues will side-step some of it (seriously, our eyes are terrible outside of their central focus region!) because there's simply no need to render everything flawlessly as on a TV. Beyond that, there are going to be all kinds of design hurdles. Right now, we have nausea-inducing roller coaster rides and people running into walls because we can't sync up the (already impressive) visual experience with inner-ear confusion and physical boundaries. Just working out what the most compelling designs are for our current VR tech is the work of years, and that's without doing it on the treadmill of ever-improving tech!

* The failure of the Ottoman Empire to create a unified culture and nation state.

* Religious rivalry between Sunni and Shiite Islam.

* Regional rivalry between Saudi Arabia (an autocratic Sunni state heavily reliant on a very conservative sect (Wahhabi) for legitimacy) and Iran (a theocratic Shiite state).

* Oil being the main economic mainstay, and not being conveniently divvied up among different ethnic regions

* Great power ambitions on the part of Turkey

* Superpower ambitions on the part of Russia

* The failure of any state in the region to produce viable governments with strong internal legitimacy, rather than series of political "revolutions" that led to changing merely of who was treating the state as their feeding trough

* Western engagement in the region

* Western disengagement in the region (damned if you do, damned if you don't...)

I'm probably missing some, but it's worth noting that while the Iraq War didn't help the situation in the Middle East, it's not like a strong dictator is an effective guarantee of internal security--after all, the Arab Spring started in Tunisia, instigated primarily by local causes (and the only country that seems to have actually improved its situation as a result!).
>The "by definition" makes it easy to refute, I just need a single example.

On the contrary. By definition here is used casually and doesn't mean "necessarily everybody" just the vast majority.

My experience doing business with Huawei and being on site for a while was that they even pit different divisions against each other. The fear of competition or being beaten by another Huawei division was much more evident than any external company.

They hide ideas for other divisions and act very competitive with each other.
I am not talking about the Cubans living in Cuba, just like the Dalai Lama is not talking about the Syrians in Syria.

If the Dalai Lama says exiles should be treated as temporary residents, and have the goal of returning to their country, then what should the US have done for the Cuban exiles now living in the US?

Your mention of "Western/US involvement" is a distraction. The Dalai Lama's comments appear to be meant to apply universally. In any case, after centuries of Western colonialism and the US/USSR Cold War, there's hardly a place on the planet which isn't majorly affected by "Western/US involvement".
Why would he need to defend buying something? It's his personal funds (not Amazon) so it's like having Steve Balmer defend buying the LA Clippers.

The LA Clippers sold for 2 billion. The Washington Post sold for 250 million.

Why is no one demanding that Balmer explain whether he's a good owner for the Clippers?

Homer Logistics | New York, NY | https://homerlogistics.com | Full-Time | ONSITE

Help us revolutionize how restaurants deliver food! We're building a centralized delivery platform to support the 200,000 food deliveries made each day in NYC. Our software is running in restaurants around the city and is used to coordinate thousands of deliveries across our fleet of couriers every day.

We're looking to bring on a full-stack engineer to help us build out our platform. We currently use Ruby, Rails, PostgreSQL, Node.js and Angular, but we're open to all languages and skills--bonus points for interest in Elixir and Go! We're also in the process of migrating our infrastructure to Kubernetes, so experience with AWS and Docker is a plus.

The engineering team is still very small (there's only 4 of us), so you'll have a lot of ownership on the projects you work on and have a big impact on our development culture!

Our interview process involves a phone interview, a take-home coding challenged focused on real software development and an onsite interview where you meet the team and get feedback on your code.

Email me at robert (at) homerlogistics.com if you're interested in learning more!

>> WaPo truly has some of the worst headlines of any professional publication today.

> Post-scarcity isn't nonsense

Yes, it is.

> it's a distant future that will lead to vast social upheaval long before it's actually achievable.

Retrocausality -- something causing something else before it even exists -- is also nonsense. Increasing productivity that is more limited by capital than labor, such that returns flow to capital, will cause much social upheaval, precisely because even as this occurs, scarcity of goods valued by people will still be present as an unalterable feature of life.

As long as there is an opportunity cost to anything, you aren't post-scarcity.

> The problem is long term structural unemployment numbers that will continue to grow until our current economic system is no longer feasible.

Yes, and that problem has nothing to do with "post-scarcity". Employment is only important for welfare because people, in our current system, need it for money to buy goods and services, and money, which is ultimately a rationing system, is only a thing because of scarcity.
I've lived in a dozen cities all over the world and there is something special about the people in the Bay Area.

This is the area where the Gold Rush happened. It was an entrepot for valuable commodities. It still has that dynamic to this day. People come from all over to extract as many resources as possible, sell them and run off to somewhere else not caring about the externalities their opportunistic behavior creates. The political landscape here is mostly about pandering to special interests and never really solving social problems. Whoever panders best uses their constituent base to get elected into state and federal government positions leaving behind the dumpster fire that is the Bay Area.

Honestly, I don't see the problem with this. If you don't like "free money" then a UBI would be horrible.

An EITC keeps people engaged with the economy. So sure it starts with me hiring you to clean my gutters and you hiring me to clean your gutters, but eventually I discover that my comparative advantage is cleaning gutters, and then I can provide value to my neighborhood cleaning other people's gutters, and maybe even grow that into a business.

Sociologists and economists have measured what happens to people on unemployment, and while the overachiever population of HackerNews might be the kind to do more exercise and do more home repair, most people don't.
