About us:

We're a team of software engineers focused on helping the business build secure software on GE's Predix platform (predix.io) and industrial internet of things.

About the role:

We build security tools for development teams, security focused libraries and embed with product teams as security focused developers - focusing on user stories around security.

Technology focus areas:

GE is a big company, and we support teams that use all sorts of languages, frameworks, and technologies. The most frequent technologies we work with are:

* Java with SpringBoot

* Angular

* Polymer

* Node

Other languages I am seeing more of: Python, Ruby, Elixer, Go

When we build internal tooling, we pick the best tools for the job: Elixer, Scala, Python, Node or whatever makes sense.

What we look for:

Great programmers who love security and understand secure coding. Experience with the technologies listed above, CI/CD, TDD, and general development best practices is key.

We hire at all skill levels and are more than happy to train in any technology or skill set if you bring enthusiasm and a programming background to the table.

I don't think they were.

Static type systems can greatly hinder FP. Or to be more specific, language semantics and runtime behavior (encoded by the type system) can influence how powerful your FP is - and by "powerful", I mean how much boiler plate you need and how much you can generalize things.

So yes, having certain characteristics of type systems do help with FP while not being core to FP. It can certainly make things more pleasant though.

I went to a Blockchain conference in NYC and met with some Ethereum advocates there. What struck me was that there was no real security story. I didn't look at it closely enough to find any specific attacks against any specific "smart contracts" but I also didn't see any reason to believe it would be difficult to find them.

Next thing, the DAO hack.

Blockchains have a huge appeal to people who don't understand much about money, software, etc. We got as long as we did without them getting invented because any academic who invented a distributed systems protocol that would not handle an increased workload when you add more nodes would be laughed out of the room.

Yea, this is actually inheritance - it's a mixin.
But let's say hypothetically to took that company and say it does a million year and throws off 300k could you hire a small team to say do more parts. Then maybe a whole custom bike. then a mass produced bike. then autonomous bike. which to me seems like a better path than Elon Musk's payments to high cars, to roofs, to space etc.
Will there ever be a way to have constant-time functions in WebAssembly? Relying on WebCrypto primitives is fairly limiting.
The short answer is yes Windows typically does know it is on a metered connection and doesn't do anything like update downloading. If it doesn't automatically detect it you can also mark that connection as being a metered connection and it will remember it. I'm not sure about tethering but when using built-in LTE you can even set what your plan limit is.
Um yes you can? I mean i do this all the time like many times a day all the time... Alt key is your friend here
> All I ever said is that the English use of these constructions is descended from Germanic, and can be analyzed in a similar way to the parallel constructions in modern German.

You're saying that a prepositional phrasal verb is like a Germanic separable verb. But it's not. A particle phrasal verb is, but not a prepositional phrasal verb. You're deliberately trying to erase the difference in order to pretend that there is no difference.
Most civilised countries are not at war with anyone, though, so how would that help?

This is brilliant, thank you for finding this. My personal favorite quote "But reality is divorced from this vision—indeed, the destruction of value after most of these scams are revealed will ironically employ more lawyers than Ethereum would otherwise claim to make redundant."

>"GW170104 was first identified by inspection of low-latency triggers from Livingston data [15–17]. An automated notification was not generated as the Hanford detector’s calibration state was temporarily set incorrectly in the low-latency system. After it was manually determined that the calibration of both detectors was in a nominal state, an alert with an initial source localization [18,19] was distributed to collaborating astronomers [20] for the purpose of searching for a transient counterpart. About 30 groups of observers covered the parts of the sky localization using ground- and space-based instruments, spanning from γ ray to radio frequencies as well as high energy neutrinos [21]."
https://dcc.ligo.org/LIGO-P170104/public

Regarding the earlier detection:

>"At 11:23:20 UTC, an analyst follow-up determined which auxiliary channels were associated with iDQ’s decision. It became clear that these were un-calibrated versions of h(t) which had not been flagged as “unsafe” and were only added to the set of available low latency channels after the start of ER8. Based on the safety of the channels, the Data Quality Veto label was removed within 2.5 hours and analyses proceeded after re- starting by hand."
http://ligo.elte.hu/magazine/LIGO-magazine-issue-8.pdf

So both times humans had to take special action for the detection to "count". I really wonder about whether the null model they are using is appropriate/relevant here.

Also, the other thing I have been concerned about is the lack of any corroborating evidence that these signals are truly generated by inspiraling black holes(gamma ray bursts, etc). Apparently, in this case the above-mentioned miscalibration has impeded that effort:

>"The event candidate was not reported by the low-latency analysis pipelines because re-tuning the calibration of the LIGO Hanford detector is not yet complete after the holiday shutdown. This resulted in a delay of over 4 hours before the candidate could be fully examined. We are confident that this is a highly significant event candidate, but the calibration issue may be affecting the initial sky maps. We will provide an update in approximately 48 hours which may include an improved sky map."
https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/other/G268556.gcn3

I can't tell from that text file whether they got corroborating evidence or not. IANAP though.
On the other hand, this would allow the market to kill off unsustainable channels. (And hopefully reinforce those that have small but passionate viewers, e.g. Science)
If the battery is the issue, disallow bringing the batteries.

Make them replaceable, and you only need to buy new batteries at the destination.

Create a standard around batteries (like palettes) and you may only need to borrow them.
I think it's important to scale back expectations for Servo. Given that Servo itself won't be ready to be used as a main engine for quite some time do to insufficient site compatibility.

Project Quantum will use only pieces of Servo coupled along with Gecko. Maybe Mozilla will fully replace all of the old single threaded code at some point in the future but I imagine that's a ways off.

Given the gradual progress of these changes it's likely that any successes in performance it brings will be copied in the other engines before they are too far ahead.
I made this comment elsewhere[0], but I'll repeat it here:

I recently took a flight from Belgrade via Istanbul to Birmingham (UK). Hand luggage only, no checked luggage.

At Istanbul they took my laptop from me, gave me a receipt, packed it in bubble-wrap, put that in a suitcase with lots of other bubble-wrapped laptops, and put it in the hold.

Yes, I got it back in the baggage reclaim area, but it was cold - seriously cold - I didn't dare turn it on for several hours to let the disk warm up slowly.

This is making international travel a complete crap-shoot.

Take precautions people. Backup your data, don't travel with your valuable laptop.

Slow Down and Wander
I was either having a really slow day or it was added later.
I ran into the AirBnB guys around the time they were in YC. It was a bad idea then, and it is still a bad idea. They were pitching a for-profit couchsurfing clone. And that idea never did take off, really. What happened is they persisted and were positioned to pivot to vacation rentals and then create a new segment of pseudo-hotel operations at a time when real estate values crashed and the economy was down. The combination of lots of investment real estate under water and a down economy is what made the hotel idea take off.
Thoughts on 'living culture' vs. 'snack culture' at a startup
Objects do no leak mass due to gravitational interaction, but gravitational interaction always expends some energy. The earth orbiting the sun expends some energy in the form of gravitational waves but it's miniscule. It is enough though that the earth's orbit decays measurably.

This experiment is designed to detect the waves carrying away that lost energy, but you need a cataclysmic event like the collision of two black holes for the event to be energetic enough that you can measure it and measure it on astronomical scales.

This is the reason why LIGO must be so sensitive, we hope not to experience a nearby black hole collision for as long as we're alive, so we must measure a distant one.

Mass and energy are interchangeable but they both must be conserved.

They didn't leak mass, the missing mass became energy in the form of emission (photons and some kinetic) and gravitational waves, which until recently we could not detect. The equations suggested they were there though, and that's why these experiments were funded, a way to find out if the uncertainties in the standard model were true or not. At this point, our model seems to predict what we track in reality with this experiment.

Of course, there are gaps in the standard model and they must all be tested. LHC is also looking at the gaps, and confirming/invalidating them.
His argument against inheritance seems based largely on Python's weak implementation of private attributes. I mean, maybe he has an argument against inheritance in Python, or some versions of Python.

But if the only argument you have against inheritance is "private names may collide," well, like, computer science has you covered, dude.
fyi, fiancée.
You are verging on whataboutism.

There's a big difference. In the US we've been educated about atrocities against natives since youth. We learned about the Trail of Tears. You know about the Jallianwala Bagh massacre if you've watched Gandhi, a piece of Western film and entertainment.

That's incredibly different from the state overwriting or hiding history.

Engineering Disasters and Learning from Failure
Fair enough; I'm just exceedingly full of caution when it comes to warning laymen off taking any contemporary work without a giant grain of salt.

On-going research - individual papers or lines of research from a small number of working groups - can be interesting, and it can give you a new direction to attack other problems from. It's also just fun to see what the cutting edge of the future might look like.

But until the work is digested by the larger body of researchers and you see what comes of it, there's also a bit of a cognitive risk to it. Half of us on HN have a favorite Grand Unified Theory of physics, an explanation of dark matter we assume is correct. Every other paper on the subject of nutrition spawns a fad diet. We regularly purge our lives of particular chemicals on any hint they're the next lead. We're all staring really hard at different quantum computers trying to figure out if they're really quantum or if they are if they're actually useful. It's really hard, once you've bought into a line of research, to let it go if it's later discredited.

There's a lot of great research going on right now that's going to be the foundation our understanding of the universe for the next century. There's also a lot of research going on right now that will ultimately end up being wrong or just uninteresting. It's really exciting to learn about it right now but the closer to the cutting edge you get the more prepared you have to be for the really cool stuff to later end up being really wrong.
I'd be interested in that too. But I don't think it's a big money. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't $1 since otherwise you have still-active users calling your support and consuming your time and money.
I took that to mean that Scala's influence on Rust is non-obvious. I might describe Scala's general design philosophy as "exuberant", whereas Rust has historically tried to have as little machinery as possible to achieve its safety goals. Scala's much more flexible, much less explicit, and much more TIMTOWTDI.
But a la cart won't change the average price for the average consumer. The price the cable company pays per station has the viewership figures baked in. They know the average customers doesn't watch most channels. You aren't really paying for them now.

Now each customer isn't the average customer. Some will win (because they use very few channels), but some would lose (light users who watch a large variety of channels sporadically).
As people have pointed out, that's Chrome-only at the moment but that's also a big moving of the goal-posts. Your original comment was “far behind in a variety of features that are useful to a much bigger % of the web” — precisely how much user-visible benefit do you think comes from a feature which may accelerate the first load slightly?

If that was that critical, it'd be easy to point to e.g. webpagetest.org traces showing Chrome loading a site significantly faster. And, yes, you can find differences in microbenchmarks but it's pretty rare to find something where rel=preload is a game-changer.

Like I answered in your other post, equality of air time for each candidate. I know, you've had twenty something candidates, and it would be hard to make that work. Tough luck, that's the price to pay for a fairer election.

I don't envy your ridiculous two year long campaigns, but at least you'd get some diversity, unlike your two-candidates-blow-100-million-in-total-and-bombard-you-for-months current way of doing it. And who knows, that might even bring you to reform your woefully outdated political system.
That is extremely exciting if it's true, as I believe this is one of the major things that has held online competition back. Can you post some articles that describe the details, and the dates that those measures become effective?

You keep trying to say "what if we pretend that preopositional phrasal verbs are just regular verbs, then we can declare that they're the same as Germanic separable verbs". But the whole point is they're not the same thing. That's not how they're categorized.

It's the profiling part that's the problem- you can determine through trial and error if you are likely to be interviewed, and adjust your resources accordingly. As noted in the paper, the 9/11 hijackers appeared to do exactly that.

Completely random interviews can't be gamed the same way.
This is the main belief of hinduism, buddhism and many other cultures, they call it reincarnation.

> The trouble is the demand for deep technical knowledge tends to be quite fickle, you only need the market to move slightly and your narrow specialism is completely redundant. Domain knowledge seems to be longer lived.

I don't think the specialization _delirium was talking about is usually that narrow. I happen to be a long-time contributor to postgres, _delirium's example. While I obviously don't need ramp up time while changing jobs where I only work on postgres, it's not hard to find other jobs that share significant amount of knowledge. Even if postgres were to die, I sure hope not, there's plenty of other data stores which share a good chunk of the techniques. I know other people that were deep into one OS kernel, and changed into another one, and the technical background isn't the big issue, it's the difference in social processes.
Since I wrote that comment I feel the itch to do it myself :) He said topology, but I don't think he meant what I'm thinking of: a torus! A Mobius band! The projective plane! My curiosity is getting the better of me.
This is just flat inaccurate. Given the GP comments' premise of optimizing only for the business's direct interests, the expected value of your contribution against monoculture is so negligible that it won't balance out changing damn near any habit that you had already chosen. It's a pretty basic collective action problem; if you're optimizing for yourself and your business alone, ignoring the wider picture is still the optimal decision.

The actual argument against (which others are making and which I'm sympathetic to) is that one shouldn't optimize only for direct bottom-line business interests, that businesses and people have a social responsibility, etc etc.
But that's entirely different from what you're talking about.
Neighborly.com | Senior Data Engineer (Apache Spark & Scala) | SF or NYC

Howdy, neighbor! I think we have a pretty special opportunity for someone with a strong Scala track record and ~1+ year production experience with Apache Spark.

Full job posting here on Lever: https://jobs.lever.co/neighborly/3148b5cf-ec48-4716-8b20-bd9...

Speaking from my personal perspective, here is some background on why I think Neighborly is an awesome place for civic-minded, world-positive, impact-seeking senior engineers: We're changing the game of Public Finance, putting the Public back where they belong. We're a unique company in the intersection of FinTech and GovTech, with a lot of very interesting data problems to solve, the outcome of which becomes a much more optimized system for communities to fund critical civic improvement projects responsibly through a better municipal bond financing process.

Our core business model aims to democratize the municipal bond market. Issuers (cities, states, counties, school districts, special districts, etc) will one day be able to borrow more cheaply, quickly, in more convenient precise amounts, with more of the city's nominal debt payments flowing back into the community. Investors get direct access to a relatively stable investment product for which the positive impact is a known quantity.

We have a substantial investment in our data platform already that we're very proud of, but we'd like to hire top-talent from the Apache Spark community to focus on taking it to the next level. If that's you, and our mission resonates, reach out to us on Lever, or if you'd prefer a more casual conversation, email me at jay@neighborly.com
