Phantom | http://phantom.land | London | Developers (Python/JavaScript/Hybrid) | Full-Time | ONSITE
Phantom is a forward thinking digital creative agency based in Old Street, London. We are currently on the hunt for Python developers of all levels, especially those with a more creative side. We will also consider any exceptional front end devs as well!

We don't put our developers in a box, but expect them to be involved from strategy to delivery, working collaboratively with the entire team to find unique solutions to some amazing briefs. To help facilitate this we have our own bar in the office (with no locks on the fridge!) and the cupboards are always stocked with snacks and treats. Most importantly we have an awesome development and creative team in place and are looking for more like-minded people who will keep pushing the agency forward.

A small sample of the technologies, languages and frameworks we use include AngularJS, Three.js, Django, Python and Google App Engine. Some recent projects we've worked on include a Google Cardboard VR Experience for Petra (http://phantom.land/work/petra/) and an interactive piece for the TATE Modern featuring music by Sigur Rós (http://phantom.land/work/states-of-matter/).

Please check out our site (http://phantom.land) for more info. Alternatively send matt@phntms.com an email directly with your CV and any relevant information.
Handling Large Files with LFS
> "does not contain any third-party software, including without limitation, “open source,” “copy left,” “public” or other similar code or anything derived from or based on any of the foregoing"

This contract has probably been written by a lawyer who doesn't understands software development.

I run digital agency and we've lost projects in the past that couldn't get past legal departments because they did not want us to use any open source software (or transfer the copyright to open source work)
If you don't want to manage Kubernetes, you can use Google Container Engine (GKE), which is Kubernetes-as-a-service.

A nice bonus is that they only charge you for the minion nodes. The Kube master is free.
The real issue is not that Apple has not updated Python, but rather that about 4 years ago Apple depreciated OpenSSL. So the OpenSSL library included on MacOS has not seen a major update since then (only back-ported fixes). The article does an o.k. job of explaining this in note 2, but fails to mention that this has been a known problem for over 4 years, and little has been done in the mean time. Only now that there is a looming deadline does there seem to be any motion on it, and it is obvious that they are going to miss the deadline.

I do think that they are missing a fairly simple solution for the majority of use cases: move things like `urllib2` to use `libcurl` underneath rather than OpenSSL. The CURL project has already solved this problem by being portable to things like Apple's CommonCrypto library and Window's security libraries.

I should also note that the article's suggested workarounds are less then ideal as both use versions of OpenSSL that do not consult the system keychain for root certificates, and so create strange problems that most people will not understand.

Do they hand out or heavily encourage ecigs? Are those cheap in general and permitted to be used everywhere on public property?

Because if so I accept your agreement, because it is clearly not about punishing people for enjoying something, but if not, then I assume the people who run it are just another bunch of statists out to kill as much fun as they can.
I'm anti-snob but I do like it when publications write "résumé" instead of "resume" for a job seeker's summary.

Those extra accent marks make it much more readable. Without them, I always mentally pronounce "employe resume" as "employee rezoom" and then backtrack to correct myself to pronounce it as "employee rayzoomay".

A popular test card in the US, which you can still see in some digitizations of black-and-white era recordings, is RCA's "Indian Head" card, named after the line drawing at the top for subjective sharpness checking:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/RCA_Indi...

I'm rather fond of that test pattern because it was usually generated by a dedicated piece of hardware that scanned a CRT beam across a metal plate with the image on it. This was to produce a more reliable source image than the more common practice of pointing a camera at a test card in the studio - and is an odd predecessor to today's test-pattern generators.

That's why you pre-heat them in the oven. This freaks people out who've never done it. Whaa ... you're sticking a pan in an oven thats turned on? Because if you do that to a cheap stamped steel and plastic pan, the plastic handle will melt off. There's a reason CI pans have expensively attached solid cast iron handles and not bolted on plastic handles...

You seasoned the pan by heating it to 400F in an oven till it stopped smoking... by definition putting it back in a 400F oven isn't going to hurt it... Also you can't accidentally overheat to 1200F and burn the seasoning off in a 400F oven, unlike preheating on a stove top. The stove top is used to hold to a constant temp not heat it up.

Leave the oven at 400F while you're cooking on the stove top... finish cooking, wipe/scrub the pan, apply a very light coat of oil, toss back in the 400F oven, turn the oven off, by the time the oven finally cools off you just massively strengthened the seasoning layer. Depending how fast your oven cools off I guess.

WRT SS there is no free lunch, you spend about as much time re-seasoning cast iron as you do scrubbing stainless steel with barkeepers friend powder.

If I'm generating a sauce, like say making fried Italian sausages with grapes and a nice white wine sauce, its stainless all the way, but I don't generate sauce when I'm making plain breakfast sausage, for example.
I'd highly recommend the book too - it's an interesting portrait. I had superficially thought 'boring business guy', but there's more to it than that.

IdealSpot | Austin, TX | Software Engineer | ONSITE | Full-time (contract) or INTERNS | https://www.idealspot.com/

IdealSpot is a commercial real estate SAAS platform dedicated to helping brick and mortar retailers find the best locations to open new stores. We have a strong focus on innovating in this space by blending conventional demographic data with bleeding-edge online behavior data and machine learning.

Our tech stack spans Leaflet.js and Vue.js for our browser-based mapping application to Ruby on Rails for account management to Python for data analysis and Docker/Kubernetes for cluster management. We aim to hire generalists who can contribute in many ways but do have a few important gaps to fill:

- Ruby on Rails: Maintaining, refactoring, and/or replacing our legacy code. This may not be full time work so it would be best if you could also help elsewhere. An eye for API design and security required.

- Docker/Kubernetes: There are a number of potential projects which aim to improve our cluster configuration. AWS experience and interest in distributed system desired.

- Python: We have an internal service that will be taking on an external role and new responsibilities in the coming months and could use help accelerating the timeline. Flask, SQLAlchemy, and Postgresql experience required and Numpy/Pandas, Celery recommended.

Our primary need is RoR and we are only considering contract positions at the moment but would also be happy to talk with talented individuals seeking interships. If any of this sounds like a fit please email your resume to josh at idealspot dot com.
I like it- strong, simple building blocks. It reminds me of Ansible, in that the design seems well factored.
Pachyderm -- San Francisco -- Onsite only -- jobs@pachyderm.io

Core distributed systems/infrastructure engineer (Golang, Docker, Kubernetes) -- experience with any systems language is fine even if you don't know Go yet.

Check out http://pachyderm.io/jobs.html to see all positions and more detailed descriptions.

https://medium.com/pachyderm-data/lets-build-a-modern-hadoop...

What would data analytics infrastructure (namely Hadoop) look like if we rebuilt it from scratch today? We think it would be containerized, modular, and easy enough for a single person to use while still being scalable enough for a whole company. Tools like Docker and Kubernetes provide the perfect building blocks for us revolutionize data infrastructure!

Pachyderm is just 7 people right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company as well as building the rest of the engineering team.

Salaries start around $120k and go up from there based on experience. We also offer significant equity, full benefits, and all the usual startup perks. This position is based in SF.
For context, I'm not trying to claim it was bigger. I don't think you were trying to say that, but just so there's no misunderstandings.

Trump has been elected precisely because he's not a focus-group-groomed super-careful politician who never says anything concrete. He was elected as a "real person" who, as a business magnate, should be able to apply his knowledge of negotiation and wealth accumulation to the nation at large.

As such, there are going to be jarring incidents like this for those of us who are used to groomed politicians, where Trump says something off-hand and it turns out to be inaccurate. I think that's fine, as a non-politician he's going to make mistakes, but it's also an asset (IMO) to be able to signal intent with concrete statements, or to be able to make initial statements and then revise them when more facts come to light. The characteristic that made him slip up on the inaug. crowd size is the same characteristic that has led to him fulfilling campaign promises at record speed. I think it's a good trade-off.
If you run on AWS, we at Boxfuse (https://boxfuse.com) offer a solution that could work for you: tiny machine images (starting at 5 MB for Golang apps) generated in seconds, no layers, immutable infrastructure, blue/green deployments and auto-scaling directly at the VM level both on EC2 as well as on VirtualBox (for rapid local testing).

no time or reason to become a dictator? It took Hitler 5 months. I would also question how mature the US democracy is. Just because it's old, doesn't not mean it has been overhauled often enough to be bulletproof.
But more importantly, this is not about Trump, because he might not have these anti democratic views as part of his systematic worldview, but someone else close behind him with growing power does: Bannon. That man has a dark plan and he hasn't kept it secret.
No way to do a partial recovery?

If time and space for the full thing are an issue, it could be really important to get going after an incident to be able to recover the most important bits first.
Yes, when I was responsible for databases and servers 'red alert' file where all the worst case scenario's were described with the recovery procedures which were tested every half year or so. This came about after these scenario's happened one after the other and I had to fix them manually.
One of them, a hard disk crash, were a tape backup failed for some reason, and the tape from two days ago was to outdated. I did a filesystem recovery, then a database recovery and consistency check, mounted the files and looked at which tables were corrupted and restored those from backup. I didn't want to through this (with a huge time pressure) ever again.
After that we decided to check if all backups succeeded and were consistent so everyone on the team could restore within an hour.
I have too, and I don't really begrudge them for it. A former boss was elated when he got to switch to a quiet, slow-moving department because he'd leave work at 5pm sharp every single day and get to spend more time with his kids.

It really just depends what your priorities in life are.
This is an absolutely brilliant idea, especially love how they're building on Redis, Firebase and Telegram (regardless of whether you think it's secure or not, that's hardly the point here), reinventing the wheel is what our industry needs to stop doing, this may be the best example of "Standing on the shoulders of giants" technology I've seen yet.
The 1963 ASCII standard also lists many of the design considerations.

I read something about using Rancher to deploy an Elixir cluster with Docker the other day. That jumped out at me because prior to reading that, the general feeling was that Docker + Erlang/Elixir cluster was a no go.

Rancher was the first thing I'd seen that claimed to be able to pull it off. I'll definitely give this more of a look.
We use AWS elastic beanstalk. It's simple to setup a high availability environment. And if needed, you can always access the underlying ec2 instances or elastic load balancer.

Jenkins has a plugin that integrates with elastic beanstalk. This makes ci/cd straightforward.

There's no extra cost for elastic beanstalk, other than what you'd pay for ec2, s3 and elastic load balancer.

We've a starter template with a bunch of .ebextensions scripts that simplify common installation tasks.

If your application is a run-of-the-mill web app speaking to a database - elastic beanstalk is pretty much all you need.
Not so sure that I would want to use Python. For anything.
There should be a 15 second warm-up after any `rm -rf` command in order to give admins time to cancel a stupid move.

Your accountant gives advice very similar to the advice of my accountant and the accountants of my friends.

Japan has, essentially, a bifurcated employment market [+]. There exist people that accept contract positions; contract positions appear to be widely used within e.g. Tokyo startups. There also exist people who would not countenance a contract position.

One of the key hiring challenges in Japanese startups is finding folks who are both a) productive and b) willing to participate in the half of the labor market that people-the-system-views-as-productive do not normally participate in. (One is not normally afforded huge flexibility in switching between these systems.)

+ Slightly more fractured than this suggests.

You mention two movies which made their budget back more than 10 times. It is safe to say that if there was a formula for creating movies which made the budget back 10x without the large financial risk the "tentpole"-movies with lots of expensive CGI carry, then Hollywood would do nothing else. But the fact is movies like these are the exception and cannot be manufactured.

It like saying to the gaming industry they should just write games like Tetris: Can be written in an afternoon and makes billions.

2. Sleep, Exercise and eat well
3. Never forget 1 and 2

The rest are beyond your control by a large degree. Try your level best. And Yea, occasionally read through such advices.
Ha this happened to me once when I was hired as a contractor to take over another employee's responsibility. The guy refused to train me (or talk to me) and I just sat around for 6 months with absolutely no work to do. I've had other instances where work was really light after a big release and we essentially did busy work until the next iteration was approved by the higher ups

I did this for a Big Co for some months.

In retrospective, it was probably the best time I had in that company. That's how I got back into programming after spending several years "consulting" (sending emails, doing powerpoints and excel spreadsheets, doing meetings, blegh), which was a very good way to get my startup up and running when I was finally laid off.

The only bad part was when someone came looking for "someone unassigned". These were really dull tasks which literally anyone could make, like moving data from paper to spreadsheet.

Or that time when I had to "help" a this guy with a MS Access database that he had been working on for weeks. It was such an atrocious thing. I remember there was a column called "Money". Sometimes it had a number. Others it had a currency name. I redid the whole thing in an afternoon, with Excel. But the guy was someone's son and was impossible to let go.

So they let me go.

The severance package was great, a good safety net for my startup, so it was ok at the end :)
