OpenSignal | http://opensignal.com/ | Angel, London | ONSITE

Our mission is to become the global authority on wireless networks; our Wifi and mobile signal crowdsourcing apps have been downloaded over 15 million times, our public reports reach a wide audience and our OpenSignal Insights are purchased by key players in the telco industry. We need to expand our team to enable us to deal with the terabytes of data we crowdsource more effectively. You’ll also be making our clients happier (and helping us grow) by developing more-extensive and more-accurate measurements of critical aspects of cellular networks.

We're looking for a Back-end Developer / Data Engineer to take responsibility for existing core data products, including the newly built online platform of OpenSignal Insights, as well as internal reporting tools that help us grow by providing our marketing and sales team with critical information. We're also looking for a Data Analyst to work on competitive benchmarking of network operators and new analyses of our key metrics. You’ll be supported in all of these responsibilities by Ajay and Joe (that's me), experienced data scientists with relevant Telco and math PhD backgrounds.

> The highest salaries among U.S. athletes are earned by baseball players, and it's not even close

If you sort by average per year it isn't quite as clear cut as that. Excluding the first 3 outliers (2 Ferrari F1 drivers and Floyd Mayweather) the next 10 highest paid athletes per year are split roughly 50-50 baseball and basketball.

There are more baseball players on the list in total than basketball players, but I'd argue it is because there are ~750 total MBA players and only ~450 NBA players.

Location: Austin, Texas

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Maybe (I'd prefer to stay in Austin or work remotely, though for the right position I will move.)

Technologies: Python, Go (golang), Clojure, Bash, Zsh, Postgres

Resume: https://linkedin.com/in/jakebasile

Email: jake at jakebasile dotcom

I'm an engineer seven years into my career, and I was most recently the first hire at a startup that helped small campgrounds manage their business. That was written top to bottom in Clojure(Script) and used Datomic. Before that, I headed up an internal tooling team at Mutual Mobile getting into some of the more dynamic parts of Python.

I enjoy solving problems. Sometimes that means I write code, but other times it means I help find the root cause and solve that with a new idea, process, or even find out it isn't really a problem. I've managed small teams of developers as a team/tech lead and would love to do so again.
Ask HN: What's the best niche to choose for freelancers?
How on earth do you choose a niche that will both be profitable and one that you'll enjoy?

I'm a successful freelancer making roughly $80,000 a year ($100 per hour) in the Mountain West. Yet I'd like to boost that so I can send my kids to private school and pay off some medical bills.

These bills are currently taped on my wall, and when I see them I think about branching out from my current skill-set (Full-stack LAMP apps (don't laugh, there's decent work out there with PHP)) to something more profitable.

So:

Niches: What niche would you recommend I choose to become more profitable, and that will be around for the next few years?

Languages: Should I focus on a new language like Golang? Or Start learning mobile development with iOS?

And thank you in advance for the mentorship. Sometimes I feel a little lost and don't know the best choice to make.

TuneIn Is Hiring a Staff Engineer, Front-End
It is my personal hunch that Musk is attempting to do something very unorthodox.

He is attempting to create a Von Neumann probe. But it's no easy endeavor. So he has to monetize and publicize the whole affair.

But if you tell people that you're making a Von Neumann probe people will either have no idea what you're talking about or think you're crazy.

So he's sell the public on the idea of rockets. hes selling them on the idea of electric cars. He's even somehow made batteries that mount on the wall of their garages exciting. And the even crazier thing is that he's selling them himself and somehow making that interesting.

But what he's really building with all of this is a Von Neumann probe. The interesting thing with SpaceX, Tesla and Solarcity aren't the products -- it's the factories that make them.

How long until he can use these factories to make more factories and they can fit into a rocket I wonder?

Ask HN: Freelance technical writing opportunities
I'm looking for more information/ opportunities on freelance technical writing. I've recently been made aware of this niche, and was told it would be a good fit for me. I currently work as an engineer in the auto industry, and am interested in learning more about technical writing as a career. Thanks!
Your comment is directly contradicting itself. The value of the Olympics and their fundraisers is because of the athletes. Would Nike pay hundreds of millions to put their logos on TV with no athletes? Take away the athletes and you're left with a bunch of old white men who have connections to marketers at large multinationals. Not very valuable.
I wonder how can they pay the site you visit without tracking your visits to those sites.

EDIT: apparently they use Anonize, that's interesting.

The Polaris is an SLBM, and thus not exactly comparable to something like a Titan or a Satan; in particular its size is dictated largely by the physical necessity of being able to fit a worthwhile payload aboard a nuclear missile submarine. Same goes for its propellant; you don't want to be dealing with RFNA and similar nasty stuff aboard a submarine, where things are dangerous enough without adding something that's toxic, corrosive, pyrophoric, and in general just enthusiastically terrifying.
Open Sourced Logos v2.0
Ah okay, I've never used shrinkwrap across platforms (dev in Linux or Linux VMs, deploy to Linux). That does seem like a PITA.

> As far as the other comments about npm, I just generally have more problems with it than rubygems/bundler and the general OS package managers.

I generally don't :)

The revolving door of employees is a big red flag. If you cannot keep employees, you are either 1) an asshole or 2) doing something shady. Either way, they are not someone you want involved in your business.
We really ought to shift to a rank based voting system where you can list your first choice, second choice, third etc. (Which Jill Stein wants to implement btw.) This system would reflect the average of preferences and the best candidates would emerge.
There's no way Trump would have secured the Republican nomination in a rank based voting system because he is so polarizing. Instead they'd probably have Kasich, who was everyone's second best.

Check out our offices and meet some of our team featured on The Muse - https://www.themuse.com/companies/curalate

We hire developers, designers and product people with exceptional problem solving skills, creative out-of-the-box thinking, and comfort with quickly learning, evaluating, and deploying new technologies. Also, We're not language zealots; we believe in using the right tool for the job, and are comfortable with a polyglot codebase.

Value Props:
* Hard problems to solve--everything we build revolves around images (data, monetization, commerce, image recognition etc etc)--and the challenges are endless.

* Leadership: Our Co-founder is our CTO and an Engineer (dev is our biggest team by far) and our VP of Engineering has managed to retain his entire team for over a year (aside from one of our dev's that decided the Seattle weather wasn't for him and headed back to sunny LA)

* New tech: Our primary language is Scala, but we are always open to trying new languages, frameworks etc-- this is a "best tool for the job" shop, so we are open to experimenting and failing fast

* Ownership: you will ship code from day one and see your impact right from the jump. We are all about autonomy, so we hire the best--it's literally easier to get into Harvard, than to get a spot on this team--dev's and give them the support to kill it

* Fun: This company is incredible and our people are brilliant, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. . .laughing is part of our DNA

* Being at the bleeding edge of tech on a winning team. . . Need I say more?
Most people don't rely on a two week gig that comes around every two to four years in order to eat.

NBA players aren't on that list because their contracts are limited to 5 years, and to a maximum salary.
And the truly elite players sign short contracts, because the max salary goes up over time.

Mean NBA salary is ~$6M, compared to ~$4M for MLB - despite league revenue per player being roughly equal.

Ah, but one enhances the other. Solar (and wind) both suffer from the intermittency problem: both do not scale up or down to match demand peaks and troughs for electricity. Also the 'amount' of sun and wind varies geographically. So the two solutions are:

- Build roughly 6 sets of geographically distributed wind/solar farms (with 6 separate sets of transmission infrastructure) to handle base-load demand reliably. Expensive.

- Attach a whole bunch of batteries to the grid to smooth out demand. Also (currently) expensive.

I think Elon Musk's solution is to convince enough people to buy huge battery packs that they occasionally drive around, but mostly leave plugged in to the grid.

She said that being too tall made the balance beam harder as you had more chance to hit your head. I think been a while so anyone can correct me.
