SEEKING FREELANCER -- REMOTE OK. Open Source developer on Open edX (OpenCraft - Remote/worldwide company based in Berlin)

Development specialized on the free software project Open edX, used by many universities and companies to run online courses. See edx.org, stanford.edu or fun-mooc.fr for examples of Open edX instances. We are a team of ten developers, working remotely from Europe, North America, Asia, Russia & Australia. The company is not affiliated with edX, but contributing and working with them on various projects. This is a full time position, were you would be able to work remotely from where you want, as long as you have a good internet connexion. : )

It's a large Python/Django codebase, with good code standards and architecture (a lot of the edX engineers come from MIT). You would work on different clients contracts using the platform. The clients list/references include Harvard, edX themselves, the French government, and various startups & universities currently running their own instances, or looking to create one. Tasks are varied, from developing developing core platform features, custom exercises and tools for specific courses (XBlocks), customizing and deploying instances, working on both client/server sides, etc.

Most of your work is published as free software (Open edX is released under the AGPL license, which requires clients to release modifications under the same license), and you would also contribute to the free software project, pushing some of your developments upstream through pull requests, contributing features, documentation or help on mailing-lists.

Stack: Python/Django, Ansible, AWS/OpenStack, Debian/Ubuntu, JS, HTML/CSS, MySQL, MongoDB

Interview process: a 15 minutes (simple) coding exercise & a 30 minutes Hangout. If that works out, you're given a (paid) test task: a contribution to the Open edX project. The decision is taken based on how you handle the upstream contribution.

If it were down to "had to work as an employee for companies in the local area", I'd have a house in Woodside or Atherton, CA and work on the Peninsula or SF. I hate the government of California and a lot of other things about being in California, but for 10 years of betting on local companies only, SFBA is the safest bet.

Bellevue/Kirkland/Redmond is my second choice, and I like Washington outside of Seattle more than anywhere else in the US. Since I now have my own company, I'm fine with it -- if I had to work for Microsoft, another startup in WA, Google Kirkland, or something like that, I'd probably stay. Best overall blend of startups, sane government, qualify of life, great culture, environment, etc.

If I had the flexibility to leave, I'd be interested in: Beijing. Kharkov. Israel. Berlin. Hong Kong. As it is, I just got back from a trip to Kharkov, and if I had to hire a lot of ops/admin/tech people, it would be really really tempting. I'm also interested in Utah and Tennessee in the long run, and Montreal.
I'm probably the only one around here that went from Mac to Linux... I decided to do this after a number of frustrating problems with hardware: ethernet port not working [1] and a severely swollen battery (although I followed all the advices to prevent this) which was not covered by the warranty "because of the laptop's serial number".

I decided to buy a Lenovo E540 a couple of years ago, on which I run Linux Mint: I like KDE's awesome interface add much add I liked Mac OS X's. I wouldn't ever go back...

I'm genuinely surprised that this post is up to 214 comments and nobody has mentioned Paris yet.

I have no idea what the practicalities of a life in Paris are, but it's still at the top of my list. In maybe half a dozen visits, I've found Parisians to be quite friendly for city dwellers (very much counter to the stereotype). If I approach situations in my severely broken French, people figure out quite quickly that their English is better than my French, and like most everywhere else in Europe, nearly everyone under 40 speaks excellent English.

Maybe it's one of those things that looks better to an outsider than it is, but the pace of life is very attractive to me.

I'm far less surprised that nobody has mentioned Chicago, but it's not bad here. For a large city, it has most everything I want: great art, great restaurants, etc. The cost of living here is obscenely low relative to NYC or SF. For far less (monthly rent vs. mortgage payment) than friends who rent one bedroom apartments in either city, we own a modest, but very nice detached house in a nice neighborhood smack in the middle of the city.

Between the recent dramatic uptick in shootings and the truly shitty weather in the winter (though spring and summer are glorious), it's pretty hard for it to bubble up to the top of anyone's list.

Sounds like it used to work better than it does now. Possibly why I just noticed the Tesla driving like a jerk recently. Seen them before but wasn't obviously in self-drive mode since they were keeping up with flow of traffic.
Yes, I added a source (the first one) which confirms that. 32.5 % of the time the relatives said no, but polls showed that it should only have been 21 %.
More than a decade ago I worked in a shop that was all Thinkpads, and I thought I'd never understand the trackpoint users. Then my wife got an x140e for some light-duty work a couple years ago, and somehow the trackpoint (maybe due to my xmonad use) just clicked. Now I love it.

As an aside the x140e is about the cheapest Linux laptop money can buy. It's built like a tank for school kids, and has nothing exotic inside. You can replace the HDD with an SSD, and upgrade the RAM (shared video / system RAM) up to 32GB I hear. It's not a particularly speedy machine, but it runs well enough, and the price is right.
Anywhere with temperature between 25 and 30 C year long, no authoritarian government, reasonable services. Remote working.

Forcing the use of encryption puts a constraint on the minimum level of processor power and memory needed for HTTPS capable IoT devices. Doing a TLS handshake with 2048-bit keys can be problematic with current low end processors. Simple devices with no security concerns can be given a web interface with cheaper hardware so long as browsers still work with plain HTTP.

In other economies that would severely punished poor people, but I'm guessing there is sufficient social housing. It still seems like it would lead to problems though.

Well, I feel that by the time a government can take decisions that are oblivious to any sort of superstition, religion included, the society will have matured so much than donating your organs after you die will be so obvious to be a non-issue.

Wrong on so many levels. If AI has been well-researched in 90s, why it is DL that really pushes the boundary of several essential tasks, namely image/speech recognition, machine translation to near human performance?

I am curious about your definition of 'AI' that seems only obvious to the term 'Artificial'.
The flat file Kirby CMS is a great option. The starter template has a basic blog implementation, it's easy to start modifying to look like what you want, and it has a basic admin panel for adding new pages/posts that's client friendly, unlike a static site generator. If you're not into making your own theme, there's a site for buying them called getkirby-themes.com which most other flat file CMS options don't have.

It used PHP and can run quite quickly if you setup caching and PHP 7 on your host. Content is generated from txt files that can have any number of fields (titles, subtitles, body, asides, meta info, etc).

As for ecommerce, I use Ecwid. It's a separate login to manage products, but it's also free for 10 or fewer products. After that it's a very reasonable monthly fee.
Why can't we expect people to have reasonable reasons for their refusal?
My mother is obsessive about not losing her memory as she gets older, paranoid about dementia and Alzheimer's.

I just sent her this article. This probably won't help.
A statistic that is almost unreal -- there are still an estimated 80 million unexploded US bombs in Laos. What a deep, deep atrocity.

Cambodia got it almost as badly. Like Laos, more tons of bombs were dropped on tiny Cambodia than were dropped by the Allied forces in the entirety of World War II. I've told this story on HN before but I talked to some Cambodian men in Kompung Thom a few months ago who said they would salvage unexploded bombs as children and sell off the valuable parts. Up until recently 1000+ people were dying every year from land mines too, which were of course supplied by the Chinese and US governments. Cambodia has more land mine victims than any other country on earth, and you see them in the streets of Phnom Penh every day. It is sick that the United States is still selling off its stockpile of land mines.
Acceptable, as long as safe. Texas allows for judgment calls up to 25 mph over posted limits.

Pago Pago, American Samoa. Moderately good looking area, plenty of sharks in the harbor. Lots of sun. I would need a satellite Internet connection to do anything tech-based. There would be no hope of corporate espionage. Would never be able to have time zones meet up for a teleconference ever again.

This would be as far south as I could go on the planet without being an NSF scientist assigned to McMurdo and still be within US jurisdiction. Technically would count as a very legal tax haven within the US defense umbrella. I wouldn't be paying the IRS but rather the territorial government.

Yep, just need a good working satellite connection since the local broadband isn't that great and I would be good to go.
Have a look at the unit tests for the components and services in https://github.com/smaato/ui-framework. We designed the test suites to explore and explain how the interface of each module works. So reading the tests is one way to get a feel for how each module is designed to be used.
A better analogy would be computer-assisted poker. The computer can keep track of the cards and provide probabilities, while the human provides the social computations (figuring out exploits by modelling the opponent's mental state). Computers have been very successful at pure optimization problems like chess, but still lag behind on games of assymetrical information.

The stock market is more like poker than like chess, because it is the correct application of theory of mind (Can a computer bluff? Can a computer cheat?) that elevates it above a game of chance.
I would be interested to know whether or not there is a relationship between stress and lack of sleep as well that could account for some of the memory issues related to stress.

I was in a very stressful relationship in college that resulted also in a lot of sleep loss (although oddly I rarely had problems falling asleep probably because of exhaustion, just got way too little of it), strangely it didn't seem to affect me that much negatively at the time. I managed to get basically straight A's but I had to lose more sleep to do it and finally graduate and then go on to a masters sans relationship, but in the past 3 years I've still had a different and tenuous relationship with sleep and lately I feel like its started to affect me. Despite having a fairly low-stress life (current relationship is low stress, job is low stress, high-maintenance family is kind of taking care of itself), I'm noticing some of the symptoms referenced in the study, but it would have to be either a delayed reaction or more sleep-related than stress-related.
I love Boston, but if I could live anywhere else it would be Amsterdam.
I mean... yeah, actually, you can -- if you had every (new) part from, say, a 1967 Ford F-series truck, anyone could absolutely, with just a Chiltons and a good set of tools, put together every nut, bolt, and screw from a giant crate of parts to build it.

You could argue that they meddled with the U.S. electoral process but did their meddling affect the outcome of the election is a completely different argument(which I dont think is being discussed).
How about carelessly bombing hundreds of innocent civilians with drones in countries you're not officially at war with, concocting dodgy evidence about WMDs to present to the UN security council, and basically destroying an entire country, while at the same time creating the power vacuum and conditions on the ground that allowed ISIS to gain power?

I thought some of that might at least warrant a mention.
