At this stage the short answer is probably not for this position.
I think that's very much ok. At least someone is paying attention to the ads, and curating them so they're not the same awful ads we've been getting. If the current browsers cared anything about our viewing experience we would never get kicked into the app store, or bombarded by some autoplay video, but we do and it's not stopping. Bring on Brave.
----- SEEKING FREELANCE UI/UX & ILLUSTRATION DESIGNER -----

Type: Full-Time/Part-Time
Location: Remote (we are located in Akron, Ohio)
Company Name: WonderKiln

This one is a bit more straight forward, we are also looking for a part-time/full-time designer to jump into a existing design team. The main focus is on UI/UX Designer but with a talent for illustration to aid in crafting assets and moving the app/web experience forward.

Similar to the dev opportunity in this thread, the main focus is on independence and hitting deadlines while having almost complete free-reign! The projects will vary quite a bit so looking for someone flexible to jump between projects but who is also quite capable with regards to Web and App design w/ illustration.

Design-wise we have a small group already but are looking to expand it with someone very focused and dedicated time-wise. Happy to share our existing designs/buildouts upon request!

Like the dev opportunity above, we are looking for someone to jump in as part-time and work on ramping their hours up from there. We are looking for someone available immediately. If interested definitely reach out with availability (hours per week), hourly rate, and design examples!

Looking forward to hearing from some of you!
This is one thing I like about HN's system: it lets me edit posts for a limited period. I'll sometimes bang out a post like the above, with a rather negative opening line like that and hit "submit". Then a minute later I'll realize I need to tone that down some, so I'll go edit it, as you suggest here. Unfortunately some shitty web forums don't allow you to edit posts at all, but I do appreciate ones which do allow editing stuff like this before anyone has a chance to read it.

Wellframe | Healthcare | Boston, Ma | Onsite/Fulltime

At Wellframe, we are building an intelligent care-management platform that allows health plans and care-delivery organizations to better manage large populations of complex patients. Because the most clinically complicated cases in a patient population tend to drive a majority of the costs, even seemingly small improvements in these patients’ well-being have dramatic benefits for the care provider. Wellframe focuses on improving patient health by providing personalized and adaptive care programs for people trying to recover from or manage serious health problems. We use the health data we collect in order to intelligently allot care resources to the specific needs of patients, paying special attention to the most-critical patients. Through clinical studies and working with large healthcare payers, we have seen that our platform improves patient outcomes, increases the capacity of care management teams and reduces costs of the care provider.

We have a relatively small engineering team at about 10 engineers. What makes us unique is that we have a full time clinical team (mostly MDs) that work with us to break down clinical science so that we can build it back up into personalized and adaptive care programs. We're currently looking for several senior engineering positions (android, frontend, infra) across our engineering team. More descriptions can be found on our jobs page (below). If you're in the area I'd love to just grab coffee regardless of whether or not you're actively looking to move -- I love talking to other passionate, driven people about what they do.

For those interested in some specifics: We have Android, iOS, and web (backbone, react) products. We're currently running most of our API on Rails but heavily migrating toward Scala for most of our backend/data services. Other keywords in case someone is searching: Spark, Spark Streaming, Akka, Python, Mesos.

I wonder if this will be approved by the shareholders, considering that Solar City is losing $300 million in value and it is an all shares merger. I'm hesitant to say it'll go through since I don't think investors like the news, as both stocks are down today and both took a huge hit around when this was announced (Telsa was -2%, but bounced back to -0.5% and Solar City is currently -6%, and falling).

Reflect | Senior Software Engineers | Portland, OR | ONSITE

We’re looking to add experienced software engineers to our team to help build, scale, and manage our hosted and on-prem platforms. Engineers in these roles will help define much of the technical direction of Reflect. You’ll get to work with everyone on our small team and wear lots of different hats, both technical and non-technical.
Reflect is considered infrastructure by our customers so service availability is extremely important to our business. We all practice DevOps and we deploy our stack amongst many different cloud providers. We’re golang on the backend and ES6/React on the front end with some services and tools written in Ruby.
Reflect is the API for data visualization, solving the data visualization problem for developers the way Twilio solves communication, Stripe solves payments, and Sendgrid solves email: by making it a service. With Reflect, developers can add data visualization to their web and mobile applications in minutes.

I would also add "be interested in what you're writing". If you don't care at all for what you're working on, there's little chance of paying full attention.

Of the educated people who are concerned about climate change, musk seems to be the only one taking a practical "let's do something about it in a very large way". Solving the problem is worth many trillions of dollars (it's literally a future with dollars vs a future without). If he is successful, he'll become that trillionaire, and it's something he's earned.

Impossible Landing (United Airlines Flight 232) [video]
> [...] and then you can't even transmit with full speed.

This is nothing specific to TCP. "Full speed" is a fundamentally unknowable quantity in advance in the general case. It varies with time and endpoints. If you try to start a connection transmitting at the full speed of your first-hop link (the only one you have any chance of knowing the bandwidth of), you just put the congestion control a hop or more away from the box that has the information necessary to do it right.

QUIC can have an advantage in re-using a connection in situations where multiple sequential TCP connections might have been made. Probing for link bandwidth fewer times is not the same as not having to probe for link bandwidth. And HTTP/2 has already addressed the most common case of this without abandoning TCP.

I like Brave on Android from when it was just a "bubble browser", but man alive it's flakey. Every day I get random bubbles on the screen that can't be moved or closed, or even worse, invisible full page coverage which means nothing on the screen works unless I pull down the Brave notification in the system tray to manually hide it.

2-3 times a day I have to force-close it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Airlines_Flight_232

United Airlines Flight 232 was a DC-10 (registered N1819U) that
on July 19, 1989 crash-landed in Sioux City, Iowa after suffering
catastrophic failure of its tail-mounted engine, which led to the
loss of all flight controls. The flight was en route from
Stapleton International Airport in Denver, Colorado to O'Hare
International Airport in Chicago. Of the 296 people on board, 111
died in the accident and 185 survived. Despite the deaths, the
accident is considered a prime example of successful crew
resource management due to the large number of survivors and the
manner in which the flight crew handled the emergency and landed
the airplane without conventional control. The flight crew became
well known as a result of their actions, in particular the
captain, Alfred C. Haynes, and a DC-10 instructor on board who
offered his assistance, Dennis E. Fitch.
> A third party doesn't actually don't need to win. If a candidate does not receive a majority in the electoral college I believe the house / congress decides[1].

(1) a third party is unlikely, in failing to win, to get even a single electoral vote, much less be instrumental in denying the leading major-party candidate a majority.

(2) If no candidate gets an electoral majority for the Presidency, the House elects a President on a one-vote per state basis (and if they don't do it by a specified time, the Vice President becomes President); if no candidate gets an electoral majority for the Vice Presidency, the Senate elects a Vice President.

> This would also pretty much destroy both parties - they will have to compromise and come closer to the middle.

Why would it destroy both major parties -- particularly the one that still wins the Presidency in that scenario?

> Basically, if a third party can get even 15% of the vote it would open the door for another candidate.

No, it wouldn't. We know that, because its happened, not that many elections ago (H. Ross Perot, 18.9% in 1992.)
NIWeek 2016 Keynotes
It doesn't make much sense to be honest. I've heard about this browser a few times now and I still have no idea how is it supposed to gain traction. The performance/bandwidth benefits of less shitty ads can be had by simply disabling flash and using an ad blocker, and otherwise average people just aren't going to care to switch. As far as I can tell the only reason investors threw $7M at them is because Brendan Eich is involved.
