I don't think it's just me grousing: https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/59pqrh/lenovos_en....

As for crapware: my T450s came with a bunch of Lenovo-branded garbage, like a settings app, a power management app, and an update app. That leaves you with, e.g. two different ways to configure your power management settings, and three different ways to configure things like mouse settings (the Windows modern app, the lenovo app, and the Windows app). For $1,000, a machine should just come with Microsoft software.
HP ZBook 15, first generation. I don't truly love it because they added a number pad to the keyboard which skewed the spacebar and the touchpad to the left, so I shift the PC to the right to get the touchpad aligned with the center of my body. There were no better alternatives when I had to buy it (I needed a 15" screen).

What I like is that I can replace almost anything, even the CPU and the GPU. I added RAM, 16 GB out of 32 now and swapped the DVD burner for a 1 TB Samsung 850 EVO SSD. I was using the 32 GB SSD cache of the HDD for the OS so it was already fast, but it's faster now. THD screen is good, the touchpad has 3 physical buttons. The battery lasts 3, maybe 4 hours with care, which is more than enough for me. It's 3 kg and the power brick is a brick but it's ok.

Ubuntu 16.04 works pretty well on it. Almost: it has two problems I can live with, shared by Ubuntu 12.04: 1) it doesn't shutdown, only suspend or restart. If I have to turn it off before going on vacation I press the power button when it restarts 2) plugging out the USB 3 HD I use for backups does something to the USB port and I have to reset the port or the PC won't suspend. Every other drive works. I have a script for that and it runs at the end of the backup script. I'm a developer so it's OK. If you're not, look at another hw.

Everything else is OK, support included. Next business day on site assistance was about 100 Euro for 3 years.

The second and third generation models look iteratively better. Maybe they work better with Linux too.

Edit: however any 15" model without the number pad will win me over.
Enigma|http://enigma.io/| New York, NY

The volume of data created by governments and businesses is growing exponentially. Organizations struggle just to store it all, let alone make sense of it. Enigma helps organizations and individuals fuse, organize, and explore data to make smarter decisions.​​ At Enigma, we started from the realization that there is an enormous quantity of hidden knowledge locked away in data silos and obscure formats, just waiting to be released. We are building data discovery and analytics tools that make it simple for organizations to liberate their own private data, and for the wider community to explore and build upon Enigma’s own integrated public data platform. We believe data can reveal tremendous things about the world and that it will continue to transform it in the years and decades to come. After winning TechCrunch Disrupt NYC in '13, we have since grown into a Series B Startup, and we're growing quickly!

Currently hiring Software Engineers, Data Scientists, Product Managers, Product Designers and more.

TL;DR uBlock Origin already blocks WebSocket ads.

I think the only viable way to get ads to the users is by randomizing it into "regular" content.

PornHub already shows you a big wall of images from videos, why not add a view images that are ads?

Binti [https://binti.com/] | San Francisco, CA | Software Engineer | Full-time, onsite, will sponsor v1sa | $100K – $140K, 0.25% – 1.0%

Binti makes software for foster care and adoption agency staff to improve their daily workflow so they can make better-informed decisions and spend more of their time actually helping people. Our mission is to find a safe, loving, and stable family for every child.

Binti's software is used by private adoption agencies in 30 states. We're in the midst of expanding into serving government foster care agencies and are close to reaching two-thirds of the foster care families in the state of California.

We have sustainable revenue, fanatical customers, and ample seed funding from top investors like First Round, Kapor, and Lowercase. We work together in SF and are growing rapidly.

Binti's main SaaS web product is a conventional monolithic Rails/Postgres app that delivers value in heaps and heaps, and remains super fun to hack on. We're building the monolith up higher and higher, and looking forward to soon chipping off a service or two (perhaps in Elixir?). Some of the areas in which we are especially seeking to round out our engineering team include web accessibility, front-end development, operations/"devops", UX, and security. We do not expect you to have all these skills, but are listing them here to give you a sense of our most pressing needs. We're using Kubernetes/Google Cloud.

Contact info is in my profile.
You list the role as ONSITE, would you be open to sponsoring a visa for the right candidate?
Yeah, the list of "must have" and "avoid" attributes made it clear that this is not a list for me. I'll probably never use my laptop with an external GPU that costs as much as the laptop itself. Maybe I'd feel differently if I used a laptop exclusively.
Yes, I find the sub-genres hard to describe. Future Sound of London. Burial. Four Tet. Boards of Canada. Some DJ Shadow. Suggestions welcome, actually, it's all a newish field for me...
>>choose your recipe, place the individual pre-packaged containers of measured, washed and cut ingredients (that you could order through Moley) on designated spots, and press “start”

When cooking, preparing the ingredients is the boring bit. I want my robot chef to be able to peel spuds and slice onions for me and then wash up afterwards. I can do the 'shoving the results in a frying pan' bit myself!
I don't mean to make it sound like we are trying to short-change anyone. We are simply looking for great candidates wanting to live in beautiful southern Idaho. (And say that cost of living in this area is much lower than many other parts of the country). But, I can see where you can interpret my comments like that.
Great place to work! I used to intern in the D.C. office.
As an end user, all I'm interested in is measuring how much of the storage I can use for things other than the operating system. There should be no need for me to touch my Windows folder at any point. Obviously, if I have 50GB+ in Windows, then the OS is NOT handling this just fine on its own.

I disabled sharing my bandwidth because I feel like it was not in good faith of Microsoft to make it a hidden default, and it should have been an explicit opt in to do that. That and the constant nagging for Windows 10, and hidden reinstallations of windows updates that I had uninstalled to prevent the nagging indicate a lack of respect that I don't appreciate as a customer.
There was a window there where HDD performance was marginal enough that compressing data helped fetch it from disk faster since CPU decompression was quicker than waiting for the data to be fetched at full-size, especially on things like text where 10:1 compression isn't hard.

Now we're living with SSDs that can do 2GB/s and no CPU can decompress that quickly.

This is a lot of words, but the point here is simple:

The modern browser security model depends in part on the idea that arbitrary RCE does not equate to system privileges. That's what sandboxes and multi-process models are for.

A kernel privesc vulnerability bypasses the modern browser security model. That's why it's a big deal.

The disclosure points out that Chrome's sandbox preemptively blocks this particular privilege escalation bug, by not exposing its vector in its sandbox. But other browsers don't.

David Kirkpatrick on His 1-on-1 Talk with Mark Zuckerberg Next Week
AirPods Might Not Launch Until January 2017
Do they have any examples of what it sounds like that I can hear without creating an account?
Presumably because a lot of people wanted to buy a computer in, say, January but decided to hold out for the next refresh, which was at the time expected to happen in March or so. Unfortunately, that new model was seven months overdue (http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#Retina_MacBook_Pro) and yielded disappointment over the price (I recall hearing that the price of the base model went up by about $200, but I can't find a citation for this) and the suitability of the system for their work (e.g. replacing the tactile escape key with something that seems like "a useless gimmick").

So they have a computer they wanted to replace ten months ago (or indeed any time since then) and no good options from Apple. And before you suggest they just buy a previous-generation MacBook Pro; do you really think the best thing to do today is to buy a two year old computer?
How to Fake It as an Artist with Docker, AWS and Deep Learning
I am currently using a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014), and am running: a Docker VM, IntelliJ IDEA (two instances, one large and one medium Java project), Slack, Safari, Chrome, iTerm configured with unlimited screen buffer, a VPN, Dropbox, Fantastical, Backblaze, 1Password, and a few other things.

For memory, I've got 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Activity Monitor is happily green, and shows me that 11.57GB of my 16.00 GB of memory is used, with 3.18 GB of cache.

I used to run into trouble with "memory pressure," but switching to Safari instead of Chrome eliminated all of that. I have 21 tabs open in Safari, only Gmail open in Chrome.

I'm sure I could come up with some combination of things that would strain the 16 GB I currently have. I might have to work at it a bit, though, and I think by most of the definitions I've seen in this thread, I should be screaming about the limitation.

If I ever hit the yellow zone with memory again, I'll just quit Chrome.
> Do you hire and pay the 60th percentile at approx. local market rates? Do you hire the best remote people at SFBay market rates?

The business owner in me says start low and raise your rates until you get the talent you're happy with. I would offer uniform base pay as typically lower costs of living come with other tradeoffs. If someone wants to make that work let them (but make it clear that it's their responsibility to make sure the electricity and internet are flowing when it's time to get to work)

> How is payroll and benefits handled?

I would suggest doing it like the oil companies, you setup a company and banking in the caribbean somewhere, and then pay folks salary into bank accounts there for them as well. Make it their problem to move/repatriate money. Don't withhold any taxes and factor in a fixed rate for any bennies you want to offer (unless legally prohibited in specific jurisdictions of course, IANAL). Let them optimize the money.
I know this is how big oil companies pay most of their workers who are on rigs in various locales in the world (and not just offshore!).
Why not just make it open source? And let other people work on it and just cover 3 people managing this + architecture costs. You don't need 2.9 mil per year to process 60k certificate requests a day with system that is practically finished. What else is there to do which open source community could not do it itself? Thousands of companies and developers use letsencrypt, a lot of potential man power to help if you ask me. You could easily cut costs 5-6 times. Or am i missing something here?
Can someone point me to the actual ruling? The only one I can find was from last year (2015). Has it even been ruled this year yet?

LoadingProgress – Android library for image loading
I'm not the author but our company is remote and our comp is handled employee by employee. There isn't a "we offer 60% of market" it's a negotiation between me and the person I'm recruiting. So for example a Computer Vision engineer living in SF and one living in Edmonton with the same skills and background would get the same pay.
I have no idea why more options for video output is a problem for the author. I would see this as the advantage. Also "Unnecessary SD slot" is con for one laptop. How is this a problem?
Indeed. SSD don't fragment. "Fragmentation" is a property of rotating devices.
No, it's the outbound API connection that is the problem. The server listens on HTTPS from the world, so having that listening inbound wasn't a problem.
NewStore | Berlin | http://www.newstore.com | full-time | (VISA)

At NewStore, we’re building a mobile retail platform that allows enables rapid order fulfillment and boosts mobile conversion. We orchestrate a variety of actors and systems to enable things like same-day-delivery for our customers.

The platform runs on a variety of microservices, written in Python and Go. We build and maintain two mobile apps, one native (Swift/ObjC), one based on React Native (ES6, Redux), as well as an Angular-based web app.

We have several engineering teams whose skills usually span all of the above areas to be able to work on entire features independently. We care a lot about QA, TDD and writing meaningful and effective tests. We aim to empower individuals and give them responsibility and the ability to make technical decisions.

In addition to pure engineering roles, we're looking for scrum masters, technical writers and more. Our founder is Stephan Schambach, founder of Intershop and Demandware (both of which he led to IPO). We’re well-funded and newly launched, so it’s a great time to join. We’ve got a good agile dev process and engineering infrastructure established, but there’s still lots of opportunity to make a difference!

Our office is in a beautiful historic power plant right by the Spree river in downtown Berlin. We foster continuing education, travel between the NewStore offices (including the one in the US), and we offer tasty, catered lunches three days a week.

Our interview process typically consists of a phone screen, a technical phone interview, and an extended on-site technical interview.

SEEKING WORK - remote, short to medium term projects - zak.wilson@gmail.com
I make software - mostly full-stack web development and HTTP APIs, but I'm adaptable.

I have some interest in artificial intelligence and machine learning. I have minimal experience making Android apps. I can do stuff that's harder than basic CRUD apps. Stuff I know well: Clojure, Ruby (with or without Rails), Python, Django, Javascript, Lua, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SASS, responsive CSS.

Other stuff I've used for something non-trivial at least once: Common Lisp, Scheme, Java, SASS, C, PHP, Haskell, Bash, Perl, MongoDB, Mirah, Android development with Clojure. Yes, I can probably pick up that language or tool you're using that nobody has ever heard of.

Interestingly, NTFS in Windows 10 introduces a new codec for compressed files. See http://www.swiftforensics.com/2016/10/wofcompressed-streams-...
I have to disagree with the author. I have setup Wordpress using OpsWorks and it is a much better way to do this especially considering all of the stack can be auto managed via Chef. Updates are handled automatically and if you get a surge of traffic, autoscale kicks in.

The only issue is getting the plugins to auto update on all of the servers, which I am fairly certain you can do with Chef or WordPress just handles it.
I just knew it! Soon it won't be that local after all. ;)
In my particular case above, I have concrete evidence it has value. Not really an opinion at all.

Teachers and therapists have independently confirmed it works for my son's case.

We're currently absorbing very slightly more energy that we emit. We call it global warming. Other than that, output balances input.

The atmosphere is a heat reservoir, but just like a water reservoir behind a dam, that doesn't mean it's ever-rising. Energy flows in one side and out the other, but between the two there is room for life.
