I've been doing marketing consulting freelance for the past two years and am ready to join a small team again. Worked in various marketing roles for 7 years, but also bring a development background. Have built several small web apps, mostly in Python/Django/Backbone/Vuejs.

My last F/T job I was the data analyst for a quickly growing, profitable SaaS.

Would love to bring my tech/marketing/analysis skills to a small team that needs someone flexible enough to fill a lot of small gaps in their team. Or a business that needs a dev to assist with their marketing team.

SEEKING WORK - Lisbon, Portugal or Remote

Full-stack web developer specialized in Python (Flask and Django) with 10+ years of experience on software development.

I have a PhD and published work in statistical Natural Language Processing, so am also looking for interesting opportunities on NLP. I have experience as teacher, so if you need one-to-one consulting or mentoring on any of these subjects (software architecture and development, web development, NLP, programming, algorithms, data processing, developing with Python, C, Java, others?), I'm used to make complex things seem simple.

I'm currently bootstrapping my own software company (http://flatangle.com) with an online product (http://elements.flatangle.com/) and an Android application (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flatangle....). I have experience on designing application architectures including implementing and releasing working products.

You can check my personal website for more information, http://joaoventura.net/ or my github accounts: https://github.com/joaoventura/ and https://github.com/flatangle/.
Can the military afford ‘cheap’ shadow IT?
Very good point. I strongly suspect as an individual's autodidactic capabilities increase, the need for highly-attuned teachers decreases, and by college-level academics MOOCs may be far more effective in that context. I think ironically however, that the need for high-attuned mentors comes up later, as the academics segues into field practice.
Then what do you classify the enforcement of property rights as?
Facebook's come under a lot of heat for refusing to moderate the buying and selling of firearms in Groups, often in violation of local laws[1]. Hopefully their moderation standards will be higher on Marketplace.

Then you'll simply use Craigslist or a different platform for those items. There are tons more selling scenarios in my view where the non-anonymity is a comfort, not a hinderance.
Heh. We'll see. Writing the glue code is not what makes writing language analysis hard. This is clearly a move to make the lives of IDE writers easier, rather than those who would be writing the analysis code.

I also e.g. have the impression that the most comprehensive/complete/ready to use container solution seems to be GKE, so on some specific areas there would be different "winners". In overall terms I got the feeling Google has a simpler offering than AWS and Azure.

He says that in the sense that "day" doesn't make sense without "night": for the former to make sense, you need the latter to exist in order to compare/understand them.
As far as I know, all prices are unreal - meaning that products prices have no actual fixture in what it costs to create them. For example, I create a beautiful night gown with materials costing me $5 and sell it for $10 - because I think that I should get $5 for my 30 minutes of work I put in creating. If somebody in China makes it, maybe they can buy the materials for 5 cents and feel like charging 10 cents for the entire night gown - because that's a "standard chinese wage" (inb4 exaggerated numbers). Meaning that my nightgown is valued at 100 times the price of the chinese counterpart. This means that any comparison between my nightgown and the chinese one is meaningless, because the person in China doesn't do the job 100 times more efficently, or with materials created 100 times cheaper. Meaning that racism, sexism and other prejudice values are more important than actual quality and profit. It's because the system isn't based on declaring true value of anything, it's a (incredible crude) system of driving people into overpricing everything for profit - and calling the final agreed upon price a real price, even though the seller often has the upper hand and can simply choose prices by deflating the supply. That's typically done by buying competators, bribing lawmakers and if all else fails: underpinning the competitions prices until they die. So to make an economical argument about a humanitarian issue is no better than giving a religious argument.. "Our current numbers are telling us that you can't have welfare" is equal to saying "Our current belief system is telling us you can't have welfare". Why? Because the idea that capitalism can give us a fair handle on price, supply and specifically demand is just retarded. The only way to create a real scientific price is to have a planned economy that tracks all demands and supplies simultaneously, so that demand doesn't mean lust.
Iron Fertilization: Savior to Climate Change or Ocean Dumping? (2012)
Yeah, annual employee reviews are undoubtedly the sanctioned time to bring it up. The boss won't be offended if you wait until then because they're expecting your compensation to be a point of discussion in that meeting anyway. However, you'll find that since they're expecting it, they have their hand-wavey excuses ready and won't take the request seriously. I'm sure a lot of people "ask for raises" in those routine reviews.

So if you do sit on your hands for 11 months so that you only ask your boss at the time when he won't find it offensive, you're still most likely going to walk away with nothing or a pittance, since as I said, bossess appear to believe any raise in excess of 5% is outrageous (again, a large bump is like an admission that they're cheapskates, so they don't like doing it).

On the other hand, most programmers can go out and get a new job offer within 2-4 weeks, and unless they're at the top of the pay scale for their industry and area, probably get a 20-40% pay bump. Which option is more attractive?

The specific quote from VLBA page that states that the parallaxes are there being measured "to determine the complete 3D structure of the Milky Way":

https://science.nrao.edu/facilities/vlba

"In 2010, the VLBA will begin a long-term program to determine the complete 3D structure of the Milky Way by measuring parallaxes with 10 mas accuracy or better to ~ 400 high-mass star-formation regions."

In order to achieve the stated accuracy using the radio telescopes around the world together is necessary.

I'm not sure I agree! Yours isn't a bad test, but honestly for many people I route them to App Engine depending on their need ("you just want a simple Python web app with no traffic and no hassle? Yeah, you should use GAE").

Having to deal with any infrastructure at all, even for a few hours per year is certainly going to make a VPS a worse choice for some folks.

They launch a updated satellite every now and then. It's a pretty cool network if you ask me :)

Ask HN: How much effort would you put in a game-AI competition?
We were discussing an idea that we shall organize small game-AI competitions among friends, one idea led to another, and we have started to talk about a site for everyone free to participate. I'd like to ask your input on how much community interest would be in these.

My worry is that everybody loves the idea of participating in such competition, but very few would spend time and energy to actually implement something. While writing a e.g. a Vindinium bot is less involved than a Kaggle competition, it obviously takes time and effort before one can show it to others.

The complexity can range from a Pong-like client, through a Risk-like board game, and even reach the low-end of Kaggle, e.g. with same data analytics. I assume the first on is an hour at most for an experienced dev, while a Risk client may take a day or two minimum.

Would you spend such amount of time in such competitions? Would it be worth for us to implement the infrastructure and game rules around it?
