Thank you. I've noticed your username come up a lot in these kinds of threads, and you're one of the only people I've seen whose experiences matched mine.

Job-hunting in Dallas is hard. I've been unemployed twice. The first time was long-term (to the point where it was affecting my sanity) and during the Great Recession. The second time, which was earlier this year, wasn't that long but still harrowing. After I got laid off, it was two months before I got an in-person interview. I got the job, but I'm fairly sure that a good part of the reason I was even considered for an interview was because one of my best friends works here and put in a good word for me with HR.

Also, on at least three occasions I've tried job-hunting while employed. Only one time did I actually find a new job before giving up.
Hi HN,
I was looking at September's who is hiring post and thought that it would be much better with some basic filtering capabilities. So I built one!

My knowledge around NLP is very limited, so probably it does not follow best practices on parsing information, but I am open to suggestions.

Feel free to check out the code and contribute!

VISA ONSITE
Converge | San Francisco, CA | Software Engineers | ONSITE | Full-time | Drones / Mobile / Web Apps

We're a revenue-generating enterprise software startup (seed stage) from MIT that makes it easy for skilled professionals (think construction, insurance, real estate, etc) to use drones everyday in their job through a combination of incredible AI and HRI.

* Looking for junior or senior software engineers, and (paid) interns. Everyday, we work on tech that spans from Drones to AI to UX to Data Viz to IOT. We're less concerned with your exact skill set and more about what you would find motivating to work on every day.

* We strongly prefer people who have an engineering/science degree, or equivalent work experience. If you've only taken a three month class on the "full stack," these positions will not be a good fit for you.

About Converge:

* Started in 2015, our founders were some of the first people to work on drones in the world, worked on the unmanned Blackhawk helicopter, and created the first mobile app ever for flying a drone (way back in 2008 at MIT…)

* We like people who have excelled at something outside of work, and are just downright interesting to have a conversation with.

* If you are looking for a keg, ping pong table or bro culture, we're not going to be a good fit for each other.

* Our team is small, we're very deliberate about hiring- you would be in the first 10 employees.

To get started, please get ahold of via the instructions here: https://www.cvg.io/careers/

If you come from an underrepresented group in tech, please get in touch w/ me (@edave) directly via my HackerNews profile.

If you won't take Dan's word for it, maybe you'll take mine?

I spend a lot (too much) time here, I've been quite critical of PG, a fair number of YC investments that I think behaved in an un-ethical way, and have read most of what Maciej has written through HN (and the associated comment threads).

When PG was still at the helm I would not have come out in support of the balance in the moderation and some of what you wrote would have stuck but those times are gone (at one point he called me a 'concern troll' for raising a legitimate issue which I haven't forgotten about).

But Dan and Scott have been as clean as could be in running the site, the only link there is is that YC still pays their salaries but afaik they have a completely free reign to moderate as they see fit and if you're going to make claims like the ones above then you probably should back those up with specific cases where you feel the moderation wasn't even handed. I know of no such cases off hand.

Both. Sometimes the routes compete, sometimes they're complementary.

In New York, look at the IND Concourse Line and IRT Jerome Avenue Line, they're 2-4 blocks apart for the entire route. Meanwhile, much of the city has no subway service at all. More nefariously, the IND built a totally-unnecessary lower-level platform at 42nd St./8th Ave. to block the IRT's extension of the Flushing line. Indeed, when this line was finally extended a few years ago, cost was added by having to demolish this superfluous station! (Who knew that the city would eventually own both.)

In Tokyo, the Tokyo metro Fukutoshin Line basically exists to compete with JR's Yamanote Line for people traveling between Ikebukuro/Shinjuku/Shibuya. Sure, now there's a one-seat-ride between Shinrinkouen and Yokohama... but does anyone do that except to post videos on YouTube? I doubt it. Eliminating a transfer probably wasn't worth the billions of yen spent to build a new subway line.

These are the most egregious duplications I can think of, but some are more subtle. I can take the IND or IRT from home to work in the exact same amount of time, depending on whether I want to walk one block in Manhattan or the same distance in Brooklyn. When I lived in Tokyo, we would go out of our way to avoid paying the higher Toei fare when Metro would suffice. (It was called "Eidan" then though!)
Silicon Valley is not conservative in any sense of the word.

SV is libertarian to radically libertarian on nearly all fiscal issues. They are left of center on some social issues.

Yes SV is not GOP conservative. But it is nonetheless right of center. I really think you don't understand that libertarians can be liberal on social issues, while being conservative on social issues. This is still very right of center.

Ultimately money has to be part of the equation
for the vast majority of worthy causes.

This is capitalist propaganda. Some problems require social change not economic, and they are worthy causes. Some worthy causes simply need legal changes.

And if you think I'm just one of those greedy capitalists peddling propaganda

The cognitive dissonance is real.

I say this as someone who took a 60% pay cut
in hopes of ultimately making more impact on the world.

Doing what? Taking a pay cut to join a startup to change the world?

The idea that not being paid what you are worth IS some how heroic is capitalist propaganda. The idea is to make you feel morally superior when being paid less, and guilty when being paid more.

I don't think "SV" actually supports basic income, it just likes saying that it does.

Whenever discussing what "SV" wants, we should try to distinguish whether we're talking about the leaders, venture capitalists, prominent opinion-formers etc versus trying to find an average of what the public in that area think. And there's an extreme diversity of views to average over.
Why should your tools having to spin up a database in 3 seconds conflate local dev testing and your prod environment? Not advocating a 8 database cluster with hot failover on your laptop.. just a simple database.
If you think merging in svn is easier than git then you haven't seen the pathological cases of svn merges. The problem is svn has no concept of a repo root or branches, it only has directories, so sooner or later things get very very broken.

I'm a bit worried by the reliance on email to validate aliveness. If something were to ...happen... (ominous music playing in the background) it's possible that such an entity could gain access to my inbox, allowing them to sidestep the DMS entirely, perhaps even gain access to its contents?

Ideally this would require two or three separate methods to verify you're still alive. Or some form of challenge/response relying on at least two different mediums/communication networks/devices.
Agreed. And if they're looking for help, they'll usually ask for it.

"What's your opinion?"

"What would you do?"
Yes, these were for fortune 2000 companies or late state startups... projects with piles of "unit tests" where you try to test one class at a time and hand type what a database does were all inevitably crap, and either failed and got rewritten, or all the crap got written out.
These seem to have nothing to do with each other, and if you're trying to imply they stole the name then you should know "dead man's switch" is nowhere near an original term. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_man%27s_switch
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 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.

Hey! You can also check out https://www.whoishiringpp.com for filtering jobs on this page.
Agree with the potential for complexity. Here's how we've dealt with this (on a so far / so good basis): Didn't seem necessary to go asynchronous and beef up on heavy infrastructure, so we went with simple in-thread, in memory message buses to start with. I think a lot of the perceived complexity of building event sourced systems comes because people start with the heavy plumbing instead of going YAGNI in order to get the domain model implemented. Easier to beef things up as needed once everything works.

I became disillusioned with doing the naive solution, for two reasons:

Found it to be impossible (from a time/project mgmt perspective) to ever replace it with the "non-naive" one, so it turns into the usual mess because CRUD doesn't work well as you load more functionality on it over time.

Secondly ... it's thinking machines. From a business perspective, does it still make sense to hand code glorified rolodexes without behaviour? Maybe Excel does the trick. Seeing it as a red flag if someone asks me to build dumb data entry forms in 2016.

Therefore, I always start eventsourced theses days. YMMV.
Sometimes people need to their own processing in order to own their solutions. You just need to rubber duck them through it... Advice then is better given by asking questions than by providing answers.
I mostly remember George Plimpton from the Mattel Intellivision TV commercials when I was a child. I didn't fully grasp exactly who he was until I was older.

FWIW, the title I submitted was the original, "Please Share". A mod later changed it.
That's fair if you don't want to make that distinction but it is common vernacular and each testing layer has a set of properties which lead to separate pros and cons. The discussion then becomes, "what are the advantages/disadvantages of testing in isolation versus testing integrated components" which is a well trodden topic.

In a previous comment you mentioned that you get huge efficiency gains testing everything together. Well, during writing you could make that argument (though I would consider that contentious) but when it comes to maintenance and refactoring, I would argue having "the test" is going to result in a much larger surface area for you to debug when you change something and "the test" breaks.

I was building a similar product at deadmansswit.ch for a while, but gave up. I always thought the privacy-leaning Swiss aspect of the URL was fun, and I planned to have it run out of a DC in Switzerland.

I had more than email as the check-in transport, and the trigger would have delivered more than just email (upload files and videos to online services, post to Twitter, etc).

Anyway, the domain is free again if anyone wants it.

Edit: spoke too soon, it appears to have been taken by someone else.
