GearLaunch | San Francisco, CA | Developers, Developers, Developers | Full Time | ONSITE

GearLaunch is a one-stop shop that provides everything businesses need to sell custom branded merchandise, from an online storefront to production, fulfillment, and customer service.

Our tech stack is "agile Java" with as much functional style as the language allows, and AngularJS with ES6 on the frontend. We're built on Google App Engine and embrace a NoOps philosophy - we spend every day building features for our customers instead of maintaining systems. The two technical cofounders (I'm one of them) are former Pivots and we've embraced much of Pivotal Labs' philosophy, including TDD and pair programing.

Our interview process is a 30 minute skype call followed by a 2-hour pair programming session with me in our downtown SF office, and I'll tell you immediately whether or not you will be getting an offer. We have all the traditional employee perks including medical, dental, take-what-you-need vacation. Reach out to me 'jeff' at the expected domain or apply here: https://gearlaunch.workable.com/jobs/245314

Thanks!
I know there's a million ways to search HN jobs, but I built this because I didn't want to keep the console window open and type "query('x')" to filter. There are probably bugs - but from my tests it works as I would expect.
If it's "safe to say", then there should be some statistical evidence backing this up, no?

At least in terms of viruses (the most common means of infiltrating a home computer), the percentage of households affected by any kind of computer virus is 40% according to http://www.statisticbrain.com/computer-virus-statistics/ (which in turn comes from data from Microsoft and Panda Security, among other places). This doesn't seem to define what "affected" means, however; it could mean that at least one computer was infected, or it could mean that they received a bit of spam from a non-household family member or friend whose computer was compromised.
Are there meta studies what political affliction study authors have and the outcome of their studys?

Telecom companies have a reasonable need for the information. (It's also impossible for them not to have it; otherwise they couldn't provide service at all.) Device manufacturers, not so much.

Most regular people are idiots and have little grasp of formal logic.

Judges are supposed to be experts at the law and better at this stuff than "regular normal people". That's why they spend years in law school, and why judges aren't just randomly selected from the general population.
I recommend you get a game console - all three current and last generation consoles support Amazon video (Wii/Wii U/PS3/PS4/Xbox 360/Xbox One). Plus they can play games.
I'm your huckleberry. I can do such a ridiculous Scottish accent that when everything is going right, it still sounds like it's all gone to hell. And when it all goes to hell, no one will know the difference.

Amazon Web Services | Seattle, WA | Fulltime | ONSITE

I am looking for a software development manager to help grow the EC2 Container Registry (ECR) team and drive the development of our next tranche of features and potentially other services related to container image (and layer) management and delivery. My ideal candidate is someone with experience managing/operating a service, but candidates with 2-3 years experience shipping customer facing features, and building/growing teams are also welcome to apply.

The ECR team is part of the broader Container Services team, which currently also builds and operates the EC2 Container Service (ECS). We excel at building highly scalable control planes, pay a lot of attention to resilience, and get to use some of the coolest tech that we've built at AWS over the past several years. The ECR team also requires you to get on the good side of Butters, the team mascot (one of the dogs in our org).

My contact info is in my HN profile.

Ask HN: Business owners: which software to keep track of expenses/receipts?
Struggling with which direction to go here. Currently I have a slew of paper receipts I've been meticulously keeping ordered in a special paper notebook, along with detailed dates and descriptions for the line items.

I need to upzone my tech stack. Looking at the 'receipt scanner / software' reviews on Amazon, everything is spat on my the reviewers. I'm wondering if I shouldn't just move to taking pictures of the receipts with my phone so I can throw them out (I'm in the U.S. and I'm pretty sure paper isn't a requirement), but then I need a clever system to keep track of them.

What do you do that works for you?

Trialspark | New York City / NYC | Full time | Full-stack developers | https://www.trialspark.com

We're a software and technology company that helps accelerate the discovery of new drugs and medical treatments by reimagining the clinical trial process.

We've worked with a range of studies that have helped develop new treatments for diseases such as Ebola, Alzheimer's, and HIV. We are an early-stage company based in NYC looking to hire our first few engineers to help us achieve our mission of bringing life saving treatments to patients faster. We offer competitive compensation packages (salary + equity) and benefits.

As an early stage employee, you'll be working directly with the founders and have a strong voice in product and technology decisions. You'll have ownership over large portions of the product and how it evolves. Ideally you have at least 2+ years of experience. You'll be working at all levels of the stack (flask/python + react/javascript).

We'd love to hear from you - shoot me a message at linhao@trialspark.com!
> Yes, fluid definitions can be dangerous, but it can also be the most beautiful and powerful thing about the law. One such example separate but equal being defined constitutional in Plessy v Ferguson, then being redefined as unconstitutional in Brown v Board.

That is certainly a good point, however I guess I'm projecting my bias by presuming that this particular ruling should have skipped over the Plessy v Ferguson equivalent and landed immediately on Brown v Board.

I think a reasonable expectation of privacy should be the goal for everyone manufacturing hardware and developing software, especially as the world gets more and more connected.

The fact that it's not a reasonable expectation for a layman is a black mark on our industry (software and hardware), and is something we should work to change (by actually making secure software).

[Edit:] furthermore the fact that DoJ etc are sitting on zero-days, thus decreasing (by not increasing) the security of our systems is most definitely a negative contribution to this fight.

Fatal Tesla Crash Proves Full Autonomy Is the Only Solution
> he/she isn't even being honest with themselves

He may not be a member of the computer-owning public. The article refers to him as "Senior U.S. District Judge Henry Coke Morgan Jr.". Senior status is not a title like Senior Engineer[1]. Rather, it means that he is actually semi-retired: He is paid his pension and travel expenses and has discretion over which cases to take. For example, there is one judge that is basically retired and lives on Cape Cod. However, he occasionally holds court down there in order to handle traffic cases for those caught speeding on federal land so that they don't have to go up to Boston. Judges on Senior status often decide to not do sentencing and they pretty much universally decline to hear Child Porn cases.

There is some fraction of Senior Status judges who don't use Outlook or Gmail but rather have their secretaries print their emails, they handwrite the responses, and their secretaries type up their emails and send them.

Considering all of this and the fact that he was born in 1935[2], he may genuinely believe that if he has a home computer that infection with viruses and weird pop-ups is inevitable.

Edit:
Of course, this isn't the majority of judges by any means. Many of them are comfortable writing opinions from their iPad while at an airport. Also, consider Scalia's opinion in Riley v. California, which this opinion would seem to directly contradict (once I can actually find the pdf...)

Stasis Labs | Los Angeles | Onsite or Remote | https://stasislabs.com

Stasis Labs is hiring a web engineer to help us improve the quality of medical care through smarter patient monitoring. We are working on a hard problem, and aim to make a sizable impact through technology. We build a connected vitals monitoring system for patients who are not currently monitored, and are launching our first product this year to Indian hospitals. We just graduated from the first class of the Techstars Healthcare Accelerator, in Partnership witch Cedars-Sinai.

We are seeking someone with experience in full-stack web development, dev-ops, server management, and web application deployment. We want you to own our web deployment process, and write great full-stack web code in an environment where security and data integrity are critical.

Our software stack includes C++ running on our device, an Android application for doctors, and a web application (node.js backend, React frontend). We're using both Bluetooth Low Energy and wi-fi. Our cloud backend is an important part of our product.

You will primarily be on the web side (backend, frontend, and infrastructure), but you will be exposed to and helping integrate our Android app and medical device as well.

You will have a great deal of autonomy and be responsible for crafting the culture, technology and processes of our company. We're a small team and are looking for someone who can learn quickly and become competent in multiple parts of the tech stack. We hope the idea of working with a variety of technologies excites you. Startup experience is a plus.

We are just beginning, and are striving to build an inclusive and positive company culture.

+ Requirements:

---- Experience with node.js

---- Experience building single page applications in JavaScript

+ Preferred:

---- Experience with React

---- Experience running highly reliable cloud servers on AWS or similar IaaS provider

---- Experience building web-connected Android applications

---- Experience working at a startup

To apply, please email a resume and cover letter (in the email body is fine) to software@stasislabs.com
There is so much good stuff going on in projects like Midori that a new systems language (or a massive overhaul of C#) has to come out of Microsoft soon.

The biggest design mistake in Java was the omission of stack allocated value types, and the same for C# was the distinction between value and object types. If something can be done on the stack it should be done on the stack - the biggest lie we were told was that "short lived objects are cheap".
Tried three times and like one. Pretty good. Sounds like Helmet
At the same time, depending on how the rewrite was carried out, it may be nothing like a completely new project. Rewriting function by function is different than rewriting component by component, which is also different than rewriting from scratch.

Rewriting function by function will give you largely the same program using largely the same algorithms, but possibly with more or less bugs, or cleaned up code.

Rewriting component by component will allow new ways those components are implemented, but the interface between components will likely be the same.

Rewriting from scratch could yield anything (servo could be classified as a way to rewrite gecko from scratch, I believe).

All of these could be said to have had the majority of their source code rewritten, but I would only really consider the last one to be "new" without knowing further details. Of course, the devil is in the details...
People get rusty for a reason. Your solution suffers from a couple of problems:

- Practice isn't the same thing as actual events. Being good at practice is more likely to diverge from being good at crisis response as actual crises become rare, because the criterion of matching what would happen in a crisis gets much less important. Thus, peacetime militaries often need radical overhauling before they can really get much accomplished when war breaks out. (Also consider - we have a lot of people who are really interested in how medieval combat (whether in a battle line or a duel) worked, what effective use of weapons looked like, and so on. But for all the discussion, we don't know, and we can't know unless we actually stage regular battles-to-the-death with period tooling. One form of combat practice, however, has been preserved as European fencing. How closely does it correspond? Again, we don't know, but consensus is "not well".)

- The automation's cost savings are free -- in fact, in this example, they have a large negative cost, cutting catastrophes by 40%. Keeping everyone in shape to handle crises they're likely to never actually see is, arguably, an enormous waste of money. (In addition to actually being impossible much of the time, as in my first bullet point.)
