Stryd, Boulder, CO, Techstars Boulder 2015 | Intern | mobile Developer

http://www.stryd.com

Stryd is a multidisciplinary team that is enthusiastic about the future of wearable technology for athletes. Out of this passion, we've developed the world’s first wearable power meter for runners that provides insight into their running technique and performance.

We are looking for mobile developers who are knowledgable with Android and iOS development. We use Java for the Android and Swift for the iOS. Good sense of design is bonus.

We also want you to be an endurance runner, or a triathlete, or at least to have the passion about running. This is very important.

You will be leading the Android development for Stryd first, and possibly share the development for iOS in the future.

Being able to relocate to Boulder for the internship is preferred but we also consider the remote talent? BTW, if you like running, Boulder is pretty much your dream place. You get tons of opportunities to run and train with LOTS of elite athletes who are Stryd ambassadors here.

If interested, please send an email to kun@stryd.com
What kind of grilling are you doing where the grill grate doesn't get to at least 165 degrees F?
I'm not sure I see the comparison. There are plenty of similarly priced alternatives to barbecue scrapers that work just as well while not being as dangerous. What are the alternatives to cars?
Apparently. Found a huge piece of wire in a dish served at Outback Steak House many years ago. Fortunately I caught it before swallowing, and the restaurant was great about it, but I can only imagine the problems it might have caused if swallowed.
First things first: Probably some copyright concerns you need to look at. The second you start charging to download the MP4 for them, you will be much more legally liable.

Now that that is out of the way, the only way to make something like this more legit looking and be able to monetize is to wrap it into a product.

The domain name is actually a very big asset. An almost English-sounding 4 letter word is very rare. Hold that as long as you can! If you have to go without food for a month to renew it, do that!

To wrap this into a product, you will want to add additional features.

1) Sign up for an account
2) Create a project
3) Import a video from youtube or your computer (also a checkbox saying they are allowed to)
4) Edit the video, drag other imported videos around, etc.
5) Download or Send to YouTube (with a watermark unless you are premium)

The clicking and dragging can be pretty simplistic, just use the thumbnail and have a start and end time for clipping the video shorter.

Its a lot of work, and it has been done before, but if you make it simple to use and cheap enough, you could probably make $15/mo or $150/year.

Just be sure to find a good admin theme from wrapbootstrap.com or themeforest.net
If I'm buying a TV for my mom neither would I.
If you want a "dumb" display then buy a display it's a product category of it's own and virtually every company that makes TV/Panels sells them e.g. http://www.necdisplay.com/category/large-screen-displays these are the ones that they sell for display purposes for advertisement, boardrooms etc. but they are not "TV's", some of them have slightly better panels than some TV's some of them don't.
Ah, there's your problem: "Hacker Rank"

Do I really have to elaborate on that?
Isn't your grill made of metal?

In response to the email spam thing (5 emails after the first week of a signup. Wow):

I have some projects that fit the use case very well, but I personally hate receiving them. I know that I am not the target audience of my app and that familiarity with a product and just having the name show up over and over makes the product easier to recognize. Of course, the data shows it converts better.

It just seems like one of those dark patterns.

Is it really about choosing ethics or money? Is there a third option?
And MacOS didn't get protected memory until Apple acquired NeXT!
Because it still does exactly what I want it to do, and what I've wanted it to do since I signed up in 2004, which is keep logs of every song that I listen to. The user-generated content side of it was added after I signed up (I think?) so I don't see how I could really miss it.

230K songs since 2004. http://www.last.fm/user/ryxxui
Easy. CBS bought them late 2007. Dev and updates pretty much stopped. They limited tracks you could play directly.

Then they killed radio.

I'm really sad to see it die, it was better at introducing me to new artists than any other service before or since, and the radio was brilliant.
I wonder if it would be worth checksumming public keys and re-checking the checksum each time it's used?
Is this supposed to be a serious analysis or a gut feeling?

Why are Intelligence Agencies included in a report about media outlets and their reporting? (And why not the NIH, or NASA, or other US agencies?)

Why is Clinton sometime referred to as "Clinton" and other times referred to as "Hillary"? The inconsistency feels sloppy.

Why are France 24 and some European media listed but not US-based Univision?

The difference is, you sacrifice almost nothing (save a few dollars) to have the Smart TV gubbins inside. The TV still works great as a display -- in fact, my new Smart TV has more inputs and other such non-Smart-TV features than my old Dumb TV did.

Also, I call BS on being obsolete in 12 months. My mom wanted to buy a 20" iMac back in ~2009, and I was hesitant to go along with it, as I felt the same way as you did. Then I realized computers last longer and longer these days, and are approaching display level lifespan.

She's still using that iMac today, and it works great. And guess what, I bought a 5k 27" iMac to replace my 10 year old Mac Pro (which has a high-end-for-its-time 24" Dell 2407WFP connected to it).

The reality is, by the time the computer was too old to be particularly useful, a 1080p 24" display was old hat as well.

I don't disagree it makes the disposable culture a bit worse; I'm not particularly likely to try to repair the iMac after a couple of years (which is one reason I sprung for an extended warranty on it which I typically avoid like the plague), but it's not so bad as you suggest. And, of course, the machine can still be used as an external display (or output to another display if it's the display that fails instead of the computer).

Perhaps your strongest argument should be that Smart TVs may accelerate the decline of standalone streamers. If that comes to pass, TVs may come to look a bit more like the all-in-one computer world.

But for now I'll enjoy my 4k streaming on my Smart TV apps, and replace those functions with standalone devices that do it better, as they come on the market. They're not there yet, though, and I'm not about to throw out all of my other devices and replace them just because I bought a new TV.
I've always been fascinated by the concept of software agents that become self-sufficient (mining/stealing bitcoin to pay for their own hosting) and auto-generate desires.

I use a welding brush. A tenth of the cost of a BBQ brush, much better made, and the bristles are big enough I'd notice.
On a similar note, there's also the case of the leg amputation that killed 3 people: the patient (gangrene), the assistant (gangrene from fingers accidentally being amputated) and a spectator (from "fright").

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Liston
Valid point. I have no use for twitter either.
Rails hype was kicking into full gear around 2006/2007.
Related: If you tenderize with a Jaccard-like tool, examine the teeth very closely before you cook your meat. I have had the blades break in half longitudinally where it still looked like a full blade, but had actually "delaminated" toward the end and left a 15mm chunk of pointed metal in my steak. It ended up in my gums.

I still use the broken blade set, but simply make sure it has all the parts before moving on. Nothing tenderizes quite like it in my experience. Had I swallowed that piece however it would have been a bad situation.

Slight related topic: Anyone else BBQ a lot, reach to open a beer bottle, but are missing an opener? Why don't they make every BBQ utensil have a decent bottle opener at the end. Better yet, every utensil in your house?

Please take this idea and run with, just tell me where to buy a set.
for an hour? that seems like a lot of wasted gas. grills should heat up in about 10 minutes.
That's interesting that you get the same performance on vbox and parallels. I tested vbox, vmware, and parallels on a macbook pro (2011 or 2012). vbox was an order of magnitude slower running our unit tests (and rails tests are slow enough as it is). Parallels was the fastest running the tests at close to native speed. Vmware was okay, but not great.
I Have a NUC at home, but its power as a computer seems to be wasted on being the smart part of a TV to me. So I use a nexus player for its interface and the NUC runs its DLNA and lives its life as a full-fledged desktop PC.
Oh god. Don't get me started on how horrendously complicated my Harmony remote was to setup.

Plus, once in awhile it goes haywire, which makes my wife's ability to use the system 10x as difficult as it would be without the universal remote in play. Because I set the system up, I understand its quirks. But when it works 99.9% of the time, the other 0.01% of the time is too difficult to train a novice on.

Whereas, in the old days, we'd both be using 7 remotes to accomplish any task, and be more or less equally proficient at it. Practice makes perfect.

As long as the company has an unsubscribe option and/or respects your response of "not interested", it is up to the company to nudge you to use the product and make the explicit decision to pay or not pay for the product. I don't personally see it as unethical as you have already demonstrated interest and have not opted out yet.

For everyone saying "just use Chromecast", note that Vizio now sells that: https://www.vizio.com/m-series It's flaky, but I don't know if it's more or less flaky than smart TVs.
Where's Flexport? Seems like their PR should be all over this.
Heavens. Doesn't Google see what's happening here?

All they've managed to bring forth with their epic hiring process (now the de-facto gold standard, worldwide) is an epic... arms race. The higher they set their "bar", the more desperately people will cram their heads full of Boyer-Moore, A*, and countless other algorithms they (and their interviewers) couldn't otherwise begin to care about.

Other than Avis, Airbnb, and the local hotels, it's hard to imagine who could realistically benefit from such theater.
> Not storing important things in the 'cloud' is surely a bigger problem. Every heard of off-site backups?

Yes, those are external hard-drives that are moved to a different location, and which can be restored in a matter of minutes or hours.

I won't put my stuff in a cloud backup the restoration of which will take several weeks (supposing it doesn't fail during the process)...
I'm in the US and I've yet to BBQ with anyone who does. This is the first I've ever heard of it.
Same here. Plus a grill scraper for the flat top.

It seems like a dream come true when you're in the business of people buying new iterations of the same thing, Which seems to be all SoCs and embedded systems providers these days.
In terms of legal, check tivo.com for a publicly traded example, transcoding is legal due to the betamax ruling. The site is already pretty large (5+ million visitors a month), but I do like the video mashup option. Thank you
I actually have a 3D TV that I got on a pre-Christmas sale. My story is that I didn't really pay a premium for the 3D aspects of the TV (which included glasses) and I'm sticking to that story :-) I think I've maybe watched a half dozen 3D movies on it.

I've watched a few films that did a good job with it. But they're few and far between.
Once, in St. Paul, I was biking on a road as close to the curb as I could, so cars could pass me. A car stopped to yell "I HOPE YOU DIE" because it was slightly inconvenient to pass me (it was a one-lane road).

Unfortunately, I had nowhere else to be; there was no shoulder, no bike lane, and biking on the sidewalk is illegal there.

Anyway, what I'm saying is, biking in the US kind of sucks.
It's pretty dumb to give honest feedback.

Speaking of Last.fm, I really wish the thing had app-specific passwords as an option. I've been shuffling between Linux music players as of late, with Scrobbling as one of my requirements. Most of them have just required a login and pass instead of using OAuth. It would be nice if last.fm let me authorize them on an app-by-app basis.

Why not? The brush cleans perfectly well and he's now aware of the risks. He'll probably inspect his food a lot more thoroughly too...
I struggled with this for years. I then realized, it isn't spam. The user can opt out at any moment and they are pulled off the marketing list.

You legally always need to make that an option.

Also it was over 10 days, so kind of longer than a week ;)

But a transnational email is expected on signup, that is how you activate your account and verify your email address. Then the personal welcome was always a VERY highly opened and responded to email. I would do my best to keep up with the questions.

The third email wasn't always sent, only if they hadn't used the product, and it was assumed they needed help.

And the last email was a coupon, and who doesn't like coupons!?
This isn't unique to neural networks at all. There was a machine learning system designed to produce interpretable results, called Eureqa. Eureqa is a fantastic piece of software that finds simple mathematical equations that fit your data as good as possible. Emphasis on the "simple", it searches for the smallest equations it can find that works, and gives you a choice of different equations at different levels of complexity.

But still, the results are very difficult to interpret. Yes you can verify that the equation works, that it predicts the data. But why does it work? Well who knows? No one can answer that. Understanding even simple math expressions can be quite difficult.

One biologist put his data into the program, and found, to his surprise, that it found a simple expression that almost perfectly explained one of the variables he was interested in. But he couldn't publish his result, because he couldn't understand it himself. You can't just publish a random equation with no explanation. What use is that?

I think the best method of understanding our models, is not going to come from making simpler models that we can compute by hand. Instead I think we should take advantage of our own neural networks. Try to train humans to predict what inputs, particularly in images, will activate a node in a neural network. We will learn that function ourselves, and then it's purpose will make sense to us.

There is a huge amount of effort put into making more accurate models, but much less into trying to interpret them. I think this is a huge mistake, because understanding a model lets you see it's weaknesses. The things that it can't learn, and the mistakes it makes.
I've been working professionally as a software developer for 20 years and I'm doing the same thing now I did 20 years ago - programming. Of course not at the same company. So I've never "gotten a promotion". If I'm lucky, I can go another 20 years without being promoted. I like development and I would die a thousand deaths if I had to be a manager. I would probably leave any company that forced a promotion on me.
This is (was) an another blog of obscure and fantastic images of that sort:

http://bibliodyssey.blogspot.com/

It has been around for years but unfortunately it looks like it stopped being updated last September.

But you can navigate through old posts to find engravings of Japanese falconry, medieval hand combat techniques, Baltic Heraldry (http://bibliodyssey.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2014-09-...), zoomorphic caligraphy ( http://bibliodyssey.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2014-07-... ), 16th Century Book of Commets ( http://bibliodyssey.blogspot.com/2013/09/comet-sketches.html ) and so on.

Map Sea Monsters is one of my favorite:

I think it also depends on your definition of "job hopping." Sure, two years each at your last three jobs isn't frowned upon in tech, but six months each is.

I'm sure there are some industries that would raise eyebrows at two years, of course.
I meant to infer that it was a primarily psychological benefit.
If you compute routes that are close enough to optimal, it doesn't matter. If you compute good enough routes quickly, that will likely reduce costs more than computing the best routes slowly. There are enough other areas of optimization that will give a better return on investment that it doesn't necessarily make sense to invest in finding the actual best routes.

Also, this particular problem is much easier than you surmise. The problem statement isn't a set of millions of cars sitting in particular locations with a set of millions of riders with particular sources and destinations and matching them and ordering routes to minimize fuel usage or median rider travel time. The problem is of hundreds of nearby cars traveling existing routes and matching a single new rider with a particular source and destination to one of those cars. There is a secondary problem of where to send empty cars that is more interesting.
My first language is English, and from the screenshots in the TrueOS handbook I'd also agree that it looks a little dated (although not particularly more so than most other open source desktop environments).
Nice blog post. I can attest to the fact that I have tried most of the suggestions on there with fairly good results.
I know it. :) I use i to off-site my asymmetrically encrypted backup (created with https://github.com/dpc/rdedup ) to Backblaze B2 .
it's metal. any sort of hypothetical shortcoming in manufacturing process can also be achieved through enough use, especially in a hot environment like a grill.
Anyone that I've met like that is either a consultant or a shitshow.

Two years is about the timeframe where your mistakes and technical debt start to bite back. If people are moving up hopping like that, they're great self promoters.

I live in an exurban town on a number of acres. Nothing about the area between here and a major metropolis resembles a "ghost town." Nor is it "terrible" nor has it been so through a number of economic cycles.

And I've traveled to many different places in the world and my observation has been that, even in areas that have generally good train service, it by no means serves as anywhere to anywhere transportation.
Of course. You're already got an offer in hand from a company that believes you're worth a certain amount of money; why go through the potential landmine of trying to convince your current company of the same?
