# Description

Boiler Room is the world’s leading community of underground music fans. We live-stream DJ sets and live gigs from music hubs such as London, Berlin, New York, Paris, LA and >60 other cities to music lovers all over the world. It started as a webcam taped to a warehouse wall in East London - in five years Boiler Room has grown to become the online home of underground music, and also a complex broadcasting and editorial platform in its own right.

You’ll be an essential part of our product team currently consisting of 3 developers and 2 designers. You should have strong opinions about how web development should be done in 2016, and you should be able to come up with and implement new ideas for consuming & sharing online music experiences.

No need to begin name calling because you disagree with his point of view. Next time, try contributing to the debate instead. Follow your own lead.
Why do you care so much? Why not err on the side of making non-males feel welcome? Isn't that more important than nice-sounding words?
The one thing I miss from Terminal.app is the proxy icon. I use it all the time to open a finder window (by right clicking on it)
First, to some extent, your code is more a demonstration of the weakness of imperative vs declarative code, since, for example, Haskell lets you declare recursive structures directly, since it doesn't enforce an order of execution where none is needed.

data Tree = Leaf Tree | Node Tree Tree
a = Leaf c
b = Leaf c
c = Node a b

But more importantly, there is no reason you can't do this with Optionals.

Tree *a = new Leaf();
Tree *b = new Leaf();
Tree *c = new Node(a, b);
a.parent = b.parent = new Some(c);
They both still do rail a lot cheaper, faster, and better than the US :-/

I was on the DBA team at FB and I spent the better part of a year working on the deployment system for online schema change. It was a pain. Other companies have done quite a bit of work on this as well (Shift from Square, etc...).

Later on I joined Pinterest as their first MySQL DBA. They had copied the sharding system from FB, but instead of having a bunch of columns, they just stored a JSON blob. This saved them from learning how to perform schema change until I joined the company. This is a pretty incredible feature.

We have a new feature under development (which will be open sourced as part of Percona MySQL) which will allow column level compression with an optional predefined dictionary. During testing, this resulted in a 30% additional reduction in spaced consumed versus InnoDB page compression AND doubles our peak QPS at lower latency. This would not work well with many individuals columns, but kicks ass for JSON blobs.

http://www.slideshare.net/denshikarasu/less-is-more-novel-ap... (slides 37, 40, 41, 42)
If we set aside the 50% part as non-literal, OP described planning, not designing. Planning includes risk analysis and mitigation. And even in designing we include risk mitigation and elimination. We put in safety factors (component must be able to support 3x target weight, and such).

Everything else you described about risk is not unique to poker. In engineering, particularly major projects with real safety concerns, it's risk analysis. This component has a 4% chance of failing in this way, so add redundancy to mitigate it. Put in 10 sensors instead of 4, and require a consensus algorithm to reduce the risks from sensor failure or misreporting.

In engineering we do gamble, on a lot of things. But it's not a pure gamble, we aren't just throwing dice. We plan, prepare, rehearse, and execute.
I've done paid work in C#, C, C++, Objective-C, Python, Java, Javascript, x86 Assembly, a variety of flavors of SQL, Silverlight, Actionscript, Go, Node... Probably other things off the top of my head.

The thing is, I'm only really good at C# and C++. Most of the above languages use similar paradigms and just have some different syntax. The skill I actually want when I hire people is willingness to work on something they don't understand really well and get better at it. It takes a long ass time to get to very high levels of proficiency (where you understand all the underlying details of how memory works and the odd little bits about the compiler/interpreter/runtime) and I DON'T operate at that level with most of the languages I "know".

Many jobs don't actually require you to use windbg to track down issues in the .NET garbage collector. Situations like that are also highly varied and it's not something you can 'train' for, you just have to cultivate the skill of constant discovery.
I highly recommend reading the Django docs. This is how I got started with web programming, after struggling to get off the ground with PHP and Zope/Plone, it suddenly clicked for me while reading the django docs and I was able to finish a fairly large project in a few months. They're full of useful examples, and the framework is very civilized.

While yes, the Washington Post has become more focused on new media, its really only them and the NYTimes that have successfully transitioned (as much as one could really expect) into new media.

The websites and mobile apps for these companies are awesome, especially compared to many TV channels and other old newspapers.

Additionally, in todays day and age, its clickbait that pays the bills, but that doesn't mean that it takes away from real journalism, you just have to recognize that not ever article will be as high quality. Movie Production companies have been doing this forever, I.E. Cars 2 pays for Inside Out. Even Buzzfeed has real journalism tucked in there.

Its sad, but quality journalism both makes less money and costs more to produce, and budgets for these stories have to come from somewhere.
> but with the help of Obamacare, all insurance companies are going to share in these expenses and raise their rates, and they can raise the rates more than their actual costs

Only if they are below the maximum premium profit-to-cost ratio (20/80), otherwise, they are going to have to refund the excess anyway, due to other provisions of the ACA.
* Unsustainable population growth

By 2012 the population of Syria had doubled since 1986, despite massive emigration. A huge chunk of the country was under 30. This lead to problems with employment, housing, water, food, etc. Which in tern led to escalating sectarian tensions.

Ask HN: How would you explain A/B testing to your mom?
I'm looking for good analogies how to convince someone to try A/B testing. This person is very non-technical. Be nice people.
Your point stands, and obviously makes more sense.

My curiosity was more in whether there were performance (or other) bottlenecks which made it technically infeasible.

Maybe they were thinking of the options most browsers have to clear selected private data on exit. In that case, though, it's still possible to clear both localStorage and cookies I am sure. Maybe parent commenter currently has the options set so that cookies are cleared but localStorage is not and that's why they thought that this is the way it always is.
I would confirm that it's my country, Spain. But you can't know it if you just read our main press, because they fake the reality.

So, my question after storing xml in a database and using their xml features to build indexes is this. Are you looking for a database or a search engine? what will you gain from a database if you are not using it's features, over saving to disk and building a query index?

Exchanging money for BTC (the buying company) and BTC back to money (so the worker can pay rent and buy food) isn't fast nor free, and is likely to cost more than the 1-3% once all those expenses are factored in.

BTC is a possibility for settling particular purchases, but it's not the best way to receive your main income, it's like getting paid in an obscure foreign currency.

> The one does not follow from the other. Just because it's predictable does not mean it's stable: you can modulate demand by, for example, making people jump through bureaucratic hoops or wait in long queues to get care.

...as we have seen in far too many countries with universal healthcare (leading those with the means to seek healthcare from other, more market-driven systems...which in turn leads to those without the means to receiving sub-standard care, or quality care subject to bureaucracy and long queues.)

In short, it's a self-licking ice cream cone. (But this is quite the tangent from the BI discussion - wherever your opinion falls on the matter, universal healthcare is an entirely different thing indeed.)

What of teamviewer's features do you need? Screen sharing? Forget RDP. Zeroconf / NAT punching? Forget VNC. And so on…

If the machines already are in a VPN and you don't need screensharing, RDP is probably the most reliable solution.

The justification in Europe is that governments want to encourage entrepreneurship (and contracting counts as entrepreneurship), hence lower taxes. I wonder what's the logic behind the US situation.
