Booking.com - Amsterdam(Netherlands) ONSITE Full-time, relocation to Amsterdam, (H1B or its dutch equivalent anyway) is taken care of by the company.

General Interview Process -> Hackerrank test, call with the recruiter, phone interview, onsite interviews

I work at Booking.com, which is a world leader in travel accommodations, as a backend developer. I have only positive things to say about working here. The people are intelligent and helpful, interesting problems to solve and the work hours are unbelievably sane. The company is strongly data driven and very dynamic, which was one of its biggest charms for me. Amsterdam is not a bad place to be either :) The Dutch government also gives a tax break through the 30% ruling to non-dutch people.The work environment is very international and everybody speaks fluent English. The relocation process is also very finely tuned through years of experience of doing this.

If you have any other questions about the company or the hiring process or you would like me to refer you, please feel free to send me an email at siddharthsarda01 at gmail.com (Email also in my profile at Hacker news). To have an idea of the kind of problems being solved here, you can also look at our dev blog:http://blog.booking.com/

Hootsuite CEO 'Apologizes' After Telling Reporter to Call 1-800-EAT-DICK
"Part of the reason I moved back ... was to get away from those Auckland winters"

Wow, if you think Auckland winters are bad, you must not have experienced a real winter in the northern hemisphere!

There's far colder (and darker, and wetter) winters in much of North America and Europe.

As for New Zealand (and I'm saying this as a Kiwi), it's an amazing place for the lifestyle. Not necessarily an amazing place for career opportunities, though.
Is there any intern position available for android development?
59, not either. I'd live in NZ for a year if I could, likely be very fun.
If those flags provide better quality of service, why am I not applying them to all of my traffic? Any attempt to "know" if my use is legitimate would undermine network neutrality.
Mycoremediation: Fighting Pollution with Morsels of Morels
Something that never really worked was cached versions of jquery (and similar) from cdn. One reason is that browsers didn't give them any particular precedence. The other was that jquery was moving quite fast compared to devs using it so as an end user i nearly never benefited from the caching. I wonder if this might work better for language run times. Maybe browsers could be provided with some manifest saying 'this site needs python 3+' or 'this site needs python 3-3.5' so that end users end up with less runtimes cached.
Tangentially related, but on our slack this morning everyone is griping about the updated blue text color on repo pages at Github. It's pretty ugly.

There is a version 0 and a version 1. They are identical except for minutiae related to date formats.

In version 0 of XSPF, dates were specified as an ISO 8601 date. In version 1 dates were specified as xsd:dateTime. This is the same thing (with better documentation) for almost every date in history, and as there are no playlist creation dates that might be different, there are no real world playlists that would be incompatible.
Interesting story. Having a skilled doctor is essential to making it out of those situations unscathed. I was lucky enough to have one of those too.

I had an ischemic stroke at the age of 21 while studying abroad in Prague. Rushed to ER and emergency cutting edge surgery, intra-arterial thrombolysis, ensued. This is a 'test' procedure in many parts of the western world. They went through my groin to get to the blot clot in my brain. Woke up that evening in the ER with pretty much no clue what had happened.

While the quality of the care was pretty good, with the surgeon being spectacular, the language barrier made things a bit difficult for my two weeks stay there after! Not to mention I was hands down to everyone's junior in that section of the hospital I was moved to after the ER ha.

Anyway that's the short version of a story I should probably write down somewhere similar to yours. I'm 24 now and completely healthy =). For all the 'making the world a better place (at a macro level)' that us devs are doing it is a nice reminder that making the world a better place on an individual level is probably still the most impact any of us can have. I don't even know what my doctor's name was! But thank you to all you MDs.
This is a great idea! I really like this. But the audience needs to be clear, and the method of gathering unbiased.

Maybe I would say, something like "you would use PHP when _____" or "you would reach for flexbox when _______" as a survey methodology. Because that's kinda how it is for a lot of things. The give & take needs to be captured.

Maybe some way of check boxing priorities. Like, I care about maintainable code, or cheap developers, or high concurrency, or good track records. All that would be really useful in helping establish a direction for a developer and a company researching directions.
SlingTV has some local networks in some areas. And it costs at least $10 less than youtube and has more channels.

I recently switched to FastMail. Pretty happy with it so far and they also offer a really nice (free) IMAP import service which will allow you to move all you old email from Gmail to Fastmail (5 mins to setup and then it runs for a few hours).
Who has used both Airflow and Spinnaker? Feedbacks?
Why would I buy a switch to play HTML games? Honestly this argument seems a stretch to me.
Yes, exactly: Piz Kesch and Escha. The code is currently also run on Piz Daint on Pascal. Piz Kesch/Escha is pretty special because the system has 16 GPUs per node which makes the MPI configuration pretty hairy compared to one GPU systems like daint.

I meant it as a general trend. There's interest from the community to run the GPU model on their system but unfortunately the official COSMO code is not fully GPU ready yet.
I wish you could find a video of that. I'd love to buy a pet robot Dalek and rig it to yell "EXTERMINATE!" at anyone who comes into my house.
My country was destroyed
You can just hold the hose and keep it of your car? It isn't too heavy so I don't see why this isn't an option.

I've done it myself a couple of times in foreign countries where there are only 1 or 2 pumps, never had to do it in my own country.
Something that I learned in a recent first-aid class: the symptoms for a heart attack often differ between women and men and that women more often experience burning sensations that can be confused with heartburn or indigestion. This can contribute to more women not seeking medical care because the symptoms can be more nuanced.

Better safe than sorry, especially where the heart is concerned.

Indeed, there are so many words of French and German origins in the Russian language, that linguists have lost their count. This is to do with the Russian nobility, at different periods, helming from those countries and/or it being the language of the court at the time (same as with French in England, however briefly). There is no shame in borrowing. Good languages copy, great languages steal.

Digital Health: Tracking Physiomes and Activity
The conclusion for this article doesn't follow from the argument.

> California's crumbling roads and bridges sometimes resemble those of the old rural South. The state's public schools remain among the nation's poorest. Private academies are booming for the offspring of the coastal privileged, just as they did among the plantation class of the South.

> California, for all its braggadocio, cannot not leave the U.S. or continue its states'-rights violations of federal law. It will eventually see that the new president is not its sickness, nor are secession and nullification its cures.

Broken down roads have nothing to do with Trump's suitability for the presidency, nor secession.

> [California] hosts the largest numbers of impoverished and the greatest number of rich people of any state in the country.

Well, given that it has the largest population, I would expect it to have the highest numbers.

Disappointing that their response is "damage control" and downplaying impact.
I've had good experiences with the $1k Hangouts boxes [1][2]. At first they felt unnecessary vs just dedicating one person's laptop to a hangout in each meeting, but the 5-10 minutes here and there that they save, the professionalism they bring to team meetings, and the improved audio quality from the dedicated mic makes them worthwhile.

I think $1k is a bit steep for what they are hardware-wise, but they're still worth it.

...Motion control for VR.

It works incredibly well in VR - whereas I know a fair few people find gamepad controls immersion-breaking, compared to interacting with the virtual world with your hands and your body.

TLDR: It's probably not a heart attack if you can pinpoint the pain, if the pain gets worse on a deep breath, the pain is related to movement of your shoulder or arm, or if it only lasts a few second.

You should call a doctor if the pain is mild but consistent and is untreatable by pain killers, and remains regardless of if you're resting or not.

You should call 911 or get to a hospital immediately if your chest pain is "crushing" or "squeezing," and especially if it is accompanied by ANY ONE of the following: sweating, shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, pain that spreads from the chest to the neck, jaw, or one or both shoulders or arms, dizziness or lightheadedness, fast or irregular pulse, severe weakness, inability to walk.

So yea you don't go to the hospital for every pulled muscle, but do your best to memorize the above symptoms of escalating seriousness, and you should be ok.

Lol, most of us produce more value in an hour than those people produced in a week. It's not about being tough. It's about being worth two orders of magnitude more.
Because posting Xkcd comics with no further elaboration is a lazy method of grabbing upvotes from the node.js circlejerk^W^W 'hacker' tribe. If that comic was indeed the first thing you thought of, why should you want to have people post a link here? You already know about it, and lots of other people too: I bet a majority of commenters here, because Xkcd isn't at all obscure among all sorts of nerds. If the post contained some further discussion of how the situation described in the comic applies to circumstances at hand, then it would have some value; but then, it wouldn't need to link to Xkcd anyway. As it is, the post is just noise.

Besides, that comic is itself an example of lazy writing. I'm pretty sure Munroe wrote it as bait for 'obligatory Xkcd' posters like your parent commenter. Seriously, that meme needs to die. Xkcd has become the new Monty Python: over-referenced to the point of killing all the humour in it.
What other industry?

Many of the tools I use daily on our customer projects are proprietary.
In the article he said he could see his heart on a monitor. Was he maybe referring to the camera they use when they are in your body?
I disagree. If you were to link a public domain movie (say a documentary) from Youtube, it would suffice to use the title of the movie, with maybe a [Documentery] and (date) stamp.

The largely fluff (imo) articles from nautil.us and the like are generally left with the original article title intact. The essay is left to the reader.

As for news and technical articles, these are expected to make a clear and concise argument or statement of facts, and the title linking the articles is expected to be accurate and informative. This seems like a pretty fair standard.

The forum as a whole is content and audience sensitive, fairly inclusive when it comes to topics, and in my opinion generally gets it right when it comes to adjusting post titles.
Now this form factor is what Google's Project Ara should have been. It's a modest size tablet to which you can attach peripherals. Peripherals big enough that many industrial sensors would fit. If you need an airflow meter with temp/humidity/CO2 sensing (HVAC techs use these), that would fit. Or a digital voltmeter/oscilloscope. (That would be very useful, especially at a Nintendo price point.) Or an RFID tag reader. (Those are way overpriced now.)

What's the interface to the peripherals? (The base unit has USB-C and the peripherals have Bluetooth, at least, but it's not yet clear what the wired connection between peripheral and main unit is.) Can the device take new software, or does Nintendo have a lock on that?
The only problem is a checkup on my fantastic insurance costs 25$, 50$ if I go to the urgent care. There was a time in my life when that would mean I'm eating beans and rice for 2 weeks to make up for that. It's a damn shame but going in "just in case" isn't really an option for everybody, especially if you're on the types of insurance lower-income people have (or, none whatsoever).
