Secure Mission Solutions | Full Time | REMOTE

We are a team of about fourteen developers and sys admins. We are looking to hire an additional software developer with strong Unix/Linux skills and (if possible) a good knowledge of computer security. We work from home and communicate via text and video chat. We work 40-hour weeks with flexible hours, but we try to overlap as much as possible with 10am-4pm Eastern Time. We are currently working on about five different projects, each written in one or more of five different programming languages. These projects are small, ranging from one to three developers each. Nearly everyone works on at least two different projects, so we all need to be competent in more than one language. Some of us started as system administrators and later became so
ftware developers. Others are pure developers with solid Unix/Linux skills.

- Work from home!
- Relaxed atmosphere
- 40 hour work weeks

It's still an open question if the plaques are a cause or symptom.

If they are a symptom then that explains why removing them doesn't change anything.
If Facebook wanted zstd in the browsers, which would make sense for them to be able to reduce bandwidth and improve performance, the patent grant seems to make that impossible: Google would never put zstd in Chrome with such a clause.

An experiment in crowd-sourced songwriting
I'm also a little bit bothered by the 'marijuana is good for you' attitude that we see in the US. It seems that in order to prove that it's not bad, people go to the opposite direction. The reality is more nuanced than good/bad. It may not be as bad as tobacco or alcohol, but it is potentially harmful (I know many people whose lives have been very negatively impacted by long-term cannabis consumption). I also find it surprising to see how it is sometimes depicted very positively in mainstream TV series.

Lending Tree, Inc. | Charlotte, NC | ONSITE | https://www.lendingtree.com

Email us at: jobs@lendingtree.com

Must be local or willing to relocate

Who we are: LendingTree, Inc. empowers consumers with information, tools, advice, products and services for critical transactions and financial decisions in their lives.

Specifically - We're looking for:

Back-end Engineers:
You're a crack-shot in your back-end language of choice. Our system matches users with hundreds of possible opportunities in real-time. Needless to say, we're looking for people who care about performance. A lot. Our back-end systems are written in C#, Java using Redis, Mongo, and SQLServer. You might know C# or Java or you might not, but either way you're willing to learn. Regardless, you can impress us in your language of choice. You understand algorithms matter. You also understand sloppy database access could make that ugly n^2 algorithm look absolutely blazing fast.
You love to code. You've built stuff. Stuff you can show us. Stuff you can't wait to show us. You know the right technology implemented the right way matters.
We're looking for both Senior and Junior back-end engineers. If you're a Senior Engineer - you've worked in server-side code for a few years. You've scaled to thousands or maybe millions of users.
If you're a Junior engineer, you love to code and you're good at it. You're smart, You're passionate, and most of all you can't wait to get started. (New grads please apply!)

Front-end Engineers:
You know Javascript. You know the ins, the outs and how to make it blazing fast. You care about performance because you know your users are waiting for every line of your code. You've used some popular frameworks, maybe angular or react - but you know one or more cold.

Where we are:

Charlotte, NC. If you're into great weather and a central location (our airport is an American hub) you should check us out. You can pick great urban living (Uptown's 4th ward is the place to be) or get yourself a huge house (at reasonable prices) in the burbs. The standard of living for an engineer doesn't get any better than this.

Mainly I am a rails developer. I also have strong experience working on Javascript (ember.js and D3.js), Python, Postgre and Mongo.
My personal experience with Hetzner is also mixed, two of the four servers we had had disk failures a few months into the contract. Luckily you are only bound for a month. The other two servers on the other hand are great - a good price for powerful hardware and fast support.
I would expect as much. But in these cases, would the auditors be expected to make their findings public?

My understanding is, the typical audit is stakeholder driven. For an audit of Google and Amazon's data handling policies in these kind of scenarios, who is the stakeholder?
I raised prices for about 6 months. Total revenue and number of purchases went down dramatically during that time. I think I need to target a different type of user to charge more, just not entirely sure how to reach those users.

I tried to keep it grounded enough to be testable (and probably failed), but it was just speculation in hopes to get the ball rolling on the conversation.
I would bet it's been replaced either in part or in whole by coffee. I know I drink coffee like people used to smoke (except at night when I switch over to tea).

That and electronic cigarettes.

The point is that there no such thing as luck as we generally understand it, but rather it is equivalent to opportunity plus skill (or better, preparedness). That is, you need to be prepared for the opportunity when it presents itself. Most people aren't and they deem themselves unlucky.

The Apollo 1 accident[0] was during a similar test (a "plugs out test", which tests the spacecraft independent of all the support systems on earth to verify that it works correctly on its own). The rationale behind all this tests is "better have a problem on the ground, where we can fix it, than have the spacecraft fail in space".

If you get interest in this stuff, the HBO miniseries "From the Earth to the Moon" has an episode about Apollo1 (and the series as a whole, though slightly dated on the FX side, is amazing).

I do not think it is possible for me to agree with you more! I've always had a hard time trying to articulate it as well as that however.

I came at it from a rather clumsy angle of damage/destruction. Imagine 500 years ago, how much damage could one person do to others. Now as humans have become so much more efficient in almost every aspect, how much damage could be done by a single person? An erratic leader with nukes, a big global tech company running essential services, or even heads of financial institutions and the monetary supply. One wrong move, even if accidental, can be amplified so much in this day and age.
Jet.com | https://jet.com/ | Hoboken (very close to NYC) | Dublin | Full-time | Onsite

----------

(From our careers page)

We need super smart engineers from all levels to help us build one of the best engineered e-commerce platform in the world (big talk we know, but that is our goal!). Our engineers combine creativity, curiosity, and drive to continuously perfect and revolutionize Jet from the inside out. We are looking to bring more intellectually curious engineers who are passionate about technology in general (Jet is a technology first company and prides itself on its culture of learning and knowledge sharing and we want all our engineers to be as passionate as we are!)

Our platform is largely an event driven platform implemented via a microservice architecture. The platform runs on Microsoft Azure and uses a large number of technologies and middle ware. The bulk of backend code is written in a functional style (F#) and our system of record is an event sourced system (essentially a log of all actions on the platform). We use a mix of Kafka, Redis, Elastic Search, Azure SQL, Event Store and Azure Storage for our data stores. About 50% of the platform runs on Linux and the rest Windows (although we move into more containerization we will see a shift towards Linux).

----------

I've been working at Jet since mid-February, and I can honestly say this is the best job I've ever had. It personally checks off every single box I could have a for a dream job:

- Incredible growth. We were the fastest startup to hit a billion dollar valuation, and we just got bought (well, subject to regulatory approval) by Walmart for 3.3 billion. With the Fortune 1 at our backs there are some really amazing opportunities and projects that are just getting started.

- Functional programming in F#. Never been more productive coding. And in general we have a very modern tech stack that is a pleasure to work with.

- Tech talks and workshops all the time. I'm learning more than I ever have.

- Extremely competent management. It feels like they really care about employees' happiness here, we've got experienced people at the helm, and it is amazing to see what a company can look like when you have a fantastic management team bringing their A-game. Really, it's incredible to have to try hard to find something to complain about.

- All the trappings of modern startup life. Free gym membership, lots of free food, etc.

We're hiring people of all different types of experience for all different types of roles. More information about specific roles can be found here: https://jet.com/careers . You can apply on the individual role pages.

If you have any questions (commuting from NYC, about Hoboken, what's going on in the company, anything really), feel free to ask here or send a message to "nat" at the domain that I work on.
Why working at a startup makes me happy
Thanks! I did a survey of the users about a month ago. Most are small tech companies (i.e. web developers, designers, etc). I have some services companies (i.e. lawyers, construction). For non tech companies, I just do the setup for them. In most cases it only takes about 5 mins for me to do.
Conversely, bad luck can play a big role in making you poor. For example, Nick Leeson singlehandedly brought down the world's second oldest merchant bank, Bearings Bank which was founded in 1762. Lesson was working in Singapore in a bank that was purchased by Bearings and was allowed to do rogue trading because the bank's controls weren't yet put in place in the subsidiary.

What brought everything down was Lesson placed a short straddle on the Tokyo and Singapore stock markets on January 16, 1995 betting there would not be significant market movement. The Kobe earthquake hit early in the morning the next day, Jan 17.

That was the beginning of the end.

Lesson did serve jail time, but published a book, Rogue Trader, and a major movie was made as well. Also a documentary.

You still misunderstand, Ireland hasn't broken any EU law, simply because the EU has no jurisdiction over Irelands tax policy.

The question of who is to judge whether Ireland 'broke the law' is mute. Ireland is a sovereign state & with international affairs there is no bilateral treaty obligating Ireland's tax affairs to be delegated by a third country or organisation such as the EU.

You're looking at the EU from a very Amerocentric point of view, the EU is not the US, the EU does not have a federal court with jurisdiction over EU countries on tax affairs.

On the question on who judges this, it's Ireland. When a country disagrees with another country its a foreign affairs problem. If China has a trade dispute with the US there is no court that can easily solve it.

The equivalent of what you're saying is China ruling US companies to pony up tax with the American countries having no presence in China. There is the WTO, but this isn't that sort of case either. What do China's courts have to do with the USA you ask? The same as the EU's courts have a say over Ireland's tax policy.

The Beatles were a dead letter[1] by around 1980. The had a significant renaissance in the '90s - kids re-buying their parents' records. If you are my age, the Beatles were "the band Paul played in before Wings."

[1] except in certain radio markets in the US.

At the time, you had Brill building songwriters feeding generic groups organized by producer. It looked like a more robust "supply chain" than the business model used by the Beatles. That world was quite different - writing, singing, playing, recording were all industrial specialties.

That model lived on in Muscle Shoals really until about 1980 or so. You ignore Muscle Shoals at its peak at your peril.

Brian Epstein was a brilliant marketer. His plan worked. He knew how to make 'em wait. The individual Beatles have tried to credit him but I don't think they understand it, really.
