SEEKING WORK - Remote or SF Bay Area (frequent travel encouraged)

Are you leading a small team and in need of someone to own the front-end? If so, I'm probably a great fit. I've spent the last few years architecting front-end solutions for early stage startups. I'm a design focused developer - while not strictly a designer, I know what looks great and I build responsive, mobile first interfaces using efficient CSS and JavaScript that scales as you grow.

You can learn more about me at http://jordanspeizer.com, and I'd love to chat about your specific needs. Email: jordanspeizer@gmail.com

This seems solid advice. I guess my main questions are:

* If you are in-memory and in-process, why bother with the events in the first place? (Simpler put, why not go with the simpler process based solutions?)

* If you are not testing distributed, how do you know you will be able to distribute?

In particular, there is a very large chance that you will have the same difficulty in replacing an in-memory/process solution that you would have had with a naive one.

And don't underestimate the amount of manpower you can get with success. Nor the amount of features that will not help get success.
I guess I would call those SV people inventors and/or entrepreneurs? Or visionaries (in the business school sense or the literary sense, not in the mystical sense)? There are multiple definitions of the word "prophet" and you have chosen the one where someone just imagines something that doesn't currently exist, but might or will someday. i.e., a prophet is just someone who is prophetic in the broadest possible sense of the term.

I think of a prophet (in the context of this article and this thread) as someone who is convinced that they literally have supernatural insight gifted to them by some unseen omnipotent being who sits behind the curtain of the universe pulling the levers.

I'm not inherently scared of someone who thinks that if only they could get the right product out there, they could make some money (and maybe even make some people happier in ways that they weren't before). I am inherently scared of someone who has convinced themselves that some unseen omnipotent being has a message for the world about who's good and who's evil and what's going to happen in the future, and everyone who doesn't get on board deserves to have bad stuff happen to them (in this life or the next).

Although, I guess that person is harmless in isolation- what I'm really scared of are the people who hear someone like that and decide, "hey this guy clearly knows what's up, let's just listen to (and do) whatever he has to say, and stop thinking about all these hard questions about ethics and morality and life and justice. Even better, we get to act like we know infinitely more than all those poor bastards who wrestle with that stuff every day!". Anyway, that's what I think of when I think of a prophet. Someone who claims to have the answers to the hard questions via magic.

Résumé/CV: 4+ years contracting/freelancing

Full-time, temp-to-hire, contract or part-time

I'm open to all roles and workplaces. I'm capable of quickly learning new tech on my own time, or absorbing knowledge by working with others. In addition to a passion for programming, I actively enjoy coming up with practical solutions to business problems.

My paid tech experience has been as a generalist in web development and anything else that needed to be done. This ranged from warehouse/manufacturing systems, USB duplication automation, proprietary databases, networking, and various CMSes.

I'm back in the DC area after having been away for a year to complete my degree. Before then I was freelancing and doing contract work for a couple years.

Yes, but I really don't like the "How it feels to learn Javascript" title. Realistically you wouldn't give such a wide array of options to someone who wants to learn how to accomplish something specific.
> Are you building graphql based apis rather than rest ones?

Yes. The Django models are exposed through a GraphQL API (using Graphene), which I query using Apollo.

Only issue with building it is that it probably already exists somewhere (though, we may not be able to access it).
Get out the vote campaigns can be broad and general or can be targeted at voters likely to vote for your candidate/issue(either right or left). As long as you're not discouraging the occasional person voting for the other side from registering I don't see anything wrong with that.
Lepton is a recompression format specifically for JPEG. It's lossless in the sense that you can reconstruct the input JPEG perfectly, but of course JPEG is itself an inherently lossy format.

FLIF is a lossless image format. It's not a good idea to give it an ex-JPEG file as input, just like it's not a good idea to convert JPEG to PNG, because it will need lots of bytes to losslessly compress all those JPEG artifacts that JPEG gets for free :).
Yup, agree, this is the problem of having a legacy monolith RDBMS that needs to be rewritten and split apart. It's tempting to throw every new fancy technology at the problem when that is suddenly an option, but it's better to focus on the goal of splitting it apart only. If you have split it out, and it's now simple to convert to ES CQRS, then you are probably in a situation where you don't need to do that, as it works quite well.
I already "told HP" (as prompt to do by the article) when I bought a Brother laser instead of new cartridges for the HP we already had. What HP does in the future is no concern of mine.

The article tries to argue that it is my concern (armies of printer bots), but HP won't care what I think because I'm no longer a customer nor stand a chance of becoming one again.
When you find an exploit that lets you execute any code you want on a remote server, you can find out all the internal details of that server, and you can make that server do whatever you want.

That's actually a pretty cool idea for a movie. Scientists hacking the universe to achieve alchemy and time travel. Maybe it could be a sequel to the Matrix. It's strange how they only ever made that one Matrix movie.

> The success of many companies, and probably all of the unicorns, has nothing to do with technology

Have you considered broadening your personal definition of technology past computing and engineering?

From Wikipedia:

> Technology can be the knowledge of techniques, processes, etc. or it can be embedded in machines, computers, devices and factories, which can be operated by individuals without detailed knowledge of the workings of such things.

Technology is the creation of systems. Those systems run as much on the users of that technology, and the members of the organisation supporting it, as they do inside of microprocessors.
Every OS has flags for this. Windows' CreateFile has a _TEMPORARY flag and most unixes have something like O_TMPFILE.
I have, and compared to WhatsApp or Facebook Chat, WeChat is like two years ahead.

Fly to China, and try it out and interact with other people in one of their tier 1 cities.
That's an interesting way of looking at it. Not sure I completely agree or that there isn't a better way, but it's certainly a point of view I didn't see. Thanks
Credit Karma | San Francisco | Full Time, Onsite

Credit Karma's mission is to make financial progress possible for everyone. We have over 60 million US members and are a true mission-oriented business, a rare case where our incentives are aligned with our users - we succeed by helping our members attain financial progress.

We've been growing rapidly over the past few years (hypergrowth) and are hiring across a wide range of positions. On the backend side, we are moving to Scala-based microservices using finagle and Thrift, and as well as GraphQL on node.js. Our native iOS and Android apps are #1 in finance (with a 5 star rating on the App Store) and we're rebuilding our website in React + Redux. Our data teams use Kafka, Spark and BigQuery among other technologies.

If you're motivated by growth and impact Credit Karma is probably the best place to work in tech today. We have solved product / market fit and distribution, but compared to our peer unicorns there is still so much work to do. If you look at the gap between our product today and what we are well-positioned to become - the main touchpoint for consumer finance - there is tons of opportunity for people joining now to take on responsibility and ownership and have a meaningful impact.

SimpleLegal | Mountain View, CA | full-time | onsite

SimpleLegal (https://www.simplelegal.com) is enterprise SaaS for in-house legal departments. We keep legal vendors, matters, and expenses organized. We're Salesforce for the Legal Dept. We're pre-Series A because our customers fund our growth by paying us.

ROLES:

- Senior Customer Support

- Implementation Manager

- Front-End Engineer

If you're interested, send me an email. It's my HN username at SimpleLegal.com.

* SENIOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT *

We are looking to fill a Senior Customer Support role. This person will work with our customers as well as with law firms to ensure that they are happy customers who refer us to more happy customers.

Bonus points if you're currently a paralegal or on the billing team at a law firm.

* IMPLEMENTATION MANAGER *

You're comfortable working with messy data. You might be an Excel guru or maybe you even write some basic scripts.

You have excellent project management skills and can track multiple stakeholders and multiple deadlines.

* FRONT-END DEVELOPER *

You believe that enterprise software can be great. You want to build software that people use every single day.

- Has a strong interest and at least some ability in designing and implementing great, consistent UX/UI.

- Comfortable with pushing us toward a single front-end framework

- Comfortable with a Django, Postgres, Redis, JQuery, and a mix of other JS libraries stack

- Experience working with older versions of popular frameworks (e.g. Bootstrap)
We have positions open in Palo Alto, CA as well.
Also, all the edge cases which become visible only after real users start pounding the service exposing all "this should never happen" conditions.
My experience is the opposite. I've been working on the web for over a decade now and only until a couple years ago have I really been happy with my stack.

My usual stack looks something like: Express / React / Redux / Webpack / Enzyme / CSS Modules

I do SSR / Universal JS whenever possible and it works great. The only problem on my stack nowadays is the CSS. Still haven't figured out a good flow. I currently use CSS Modules, but without dead code elimination, it just doesn't do exactly what I would like to (feed in the whole CSS library I use and let it pick and choose the classes that are used in my components, throwing the rest away)

Getting up to speed on all these tools hasn't been easy, but at this point, most of my projects are a breeze. No worrying about browser JS support. No worrying about CSS support. No more choosing between server side and client side rendering. Linting that works great and keeps the projects looking clean. Testing that doesn't make me wanna blow my brains out. Combining and minifying projects is a piece of cake. HMR + Autorefresh is like magic.

I'm really enjoying working on the web now.
Every OS has flags for this. Windows' CreateFile has a _TEMPORARY flag and most unixes have something like O_TMPFILE. These avoids flushing them to disk, even on a background writer timeout (Linux/Windows). Further, on many *nix systems /tmp and the like are often in-memory FSes.
How to Design Lead Nurturing, Lead Scoring, and Drip Email Campaigns
In my previous article, How To Track Customer Acquisitions: Customer Lifecycle, Sales Funnel, and Content Strategy, I described how companies attract, engage, and convert customers, and how this process can be optimized and improved.

In this guide, I will make an attempt to describe how SaaS/enterprise companies design lead nurturing campaigns and how lead scoring can help prioritize leads and improve conversions, as well as how lead nurturing strategy affects the creation of drip email campaigns.

The primary goal of this article is to help you design or improve your current lead nurturing strategy. But the ultimate goal is to provide marketers and founders with some core principles on the topics of lead nurturing, and lead scoring. My intention isn’t to provide a cookie cutter solution, but instead to stimulate ideas and encourage a new way of thinking around these topics.

Summary / Advisories

PART 1: Nurturing: Lead Nurturing and Customer Nurturing

1.1. What is nurturing?: lead nurturing, and customer nurturing?

1.2. Why is a nurturing strategy essential for growth?

PART 2: Lead Scoring Strategy and Design

2.1. How a company’s growth stage impacts leads scoring

2.2. Why a prospect’s FIT and PAIN are at the core of any lead scoring strategy

2.3. How to design a lead scoring system

2.4. What is a target (or SDR-ready) score and how do you select one?

2.5. What are the factors that drive lead scoring?

2.6. Reaching an SDR-ready Score

2.7. Static vs. Predictive lead scoring

2.8. What are the biggest mistakes when it comes to lead scoring?

PART 3: Drip Emails As A Primary Lead Nurturing Mechanism

3.1. What are the primary categories of drip email campaigns?

3.2. Segmentation can increase the effectiveness of your drip email campaigns

Reading elsewhere, it sounds possible that more attention for `ggvis` is on the menu once `ggplot2` is in a more complete form, so I'd hoped that `ggplot2` would adopt "%>%" pipes, rather than "+" for composing plots.

It would be convenient to adopt one mental model that would be more easily transferable between the two, as well as `ddplyr`, `tidyr`, etc.

I think the problem was the hard-to-maintain lazy way was usually the most obvious. There was so much momentum behind the quick-and-dirty imperative DOM approach that it was hard to do anything else. For example, you could totally use Backbone to construct modular, refactorable views -- but in practice everything would devolve into DOM-munging event-driven spaghetti.
Aww The last part, the one in which they transmit software encoded as sounds is such invitation to hack!!

I wish to have the time! or to be Saturday -- is not fair to post this on a Monday :)
What did ES5 change to then? I never heard. Honestly, ES2015 just seems odd to me.
I question any amount of guarantees around "one message" anything. There might be this guarantee per actor, but you have no such guarantee per system. And, assuming a real system, this will be a problem.

So, you get to pick, "at most once" or "at least once." And then you need to build your system to act accordingly.

Totally agree. Just switched to it on Redux and this was all that was involved: https://github.com/reactjs/redux/pull/1951/files

Most of that is just find-and-replace kinds of changes. But we dropped 3 dependencies to one and sped everything up in the process. It's just a fantastic tool! I finally feel like I've got a good Rspec equivalent in the JS world.
In open plan offices, it would be the person with the nicest window, or furthest from the door.
Webpack got swept along in the React zeitgeist. Few people who use it really take the time to understand it.

It's a pretty slow way to build a project, but that's actually not the main sell. The main sell is in smart asset chunking, and it's pretty darn good at it. That alone earned it a place in my skillset.
