TGS - Irvine, CA and Princeton, NJ | Full Time | ONSITE | $180 - 250k (base) salary

TGS is a quantitative hedge fund with offices in Princeton, NJ and Irvine, CA.

Our fund offers a rich variety of challenging problems with an academic culture and highly competitive compensation.

We are looking for extremely talented generalist software engineers and research scientists in technical disciplines to join our team. Your work will consist of using the TB of data we ingest every day to develop new financial models and trading algorithms.

My problem is seats. Ideally I want a vehicle that sits 8 people (minimum is 7) -- and not cost a small fortune. So, for the time being electrics are out of the running for me. I'll check back in 10 years when most of my kids have moved out.

>the administrative regulations are supposed to be created only following the legislatively mandated rule making process.

The administration hasn't created new rules. They've delayed rules that have not yet taken effect.

>While Trump's appointees are free to initiate a new rule making process--as for example his FCC commissioner is doing to the chagrin of most HN commenters on net neutrality

Which the FCC did by blocking rules before they were to take effect. Sounds like the same strategy to me.

As someone that has both Kafka and Redis in use without issue, for years, (and is about to replace a lot of misused Redis instances with Kafka) I really fail to follow your points.

So, a Zookeeper cluster can't survive accidentally injecting just the right malicious data that will make it keel over. I'm sorry, how do you accidentally achieve that? Do you also accidentally configure your Redis Sentinel to replicate from /dev/null?

As a matter of fact, this announcement comes at a very inopportune time for me. antirez had the epiphany of reading on IRC about replicated logs instead of looking at the opening paragraphs of the Kafka documentation, and all the Redis evangelists at my job will now try to shoe-horn the wrong usecase back into Redis because Redis!1cos(0)!. Sigh.
Maybe I just live under a rock, but this is actually the first time I've heard of Groove music. I don't know if that's saying more about me or MS' marketing department.

Wow. The inventor Piece Table is none other than Moore of Boyer Moore string search algorithm:

To be clear, I think the Volt is relevant because it's a plug-in series-hybrid that drives like an EV: it drives on battery power while available, and then uses the engine mostly as a generator. It came out in 2011 and I would imagine that it gave GM a great testbed to learn more about electric drivetrains (than they knew from the EV1) before putting out the Bolt.
I think you will see good electrics coming from Japan. The e-class racing teams have been doing great work, as have their f-class. They are certainly capable of holding their own. They also have some good hybrids that will make their way to personal vehicles.
Where is that? Asda and Aldi near me are open on Sundays till 4pm...

As opposed to Germany and Belgium, where only gas stations are open and everything is overpriced as a result.
did they? Aren't these just the same ARM stubs there's always been in the macOS source releases? Note the absence of iOS kernel sources labelled as such, and note the README on GitHub doesn't even mention ARM.

I'll believe it when someone knowledgeable in the subject confirms it.
Here are the refactorings available : http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-editor-refactoring.html

Also they are backed by Clang and muuuuuuuuuuuch faster than in Visual Studio + whatever paid extension

A very nice feature it has and that I didn't see elsewhere is the optional case-sensitive renaming.
eg renaming Foo to Bar will also change foo to bar and FoO to BaR.
In addition to church, one of the drivers of regulations around weekend closures is small businesses. The idea is that larger businesses can be open whenever it's profitable to hire people to work. Whereas many small businesses effectively require the owner to be present.

Not arguing for that position but I've heard the argument around opening on Sunday. It's been a big shift in much of the US. In Massachusetts, almost nothing was open when I was in school and Sunday retail alcohol sales are a relatively recent thing. And there are still very weird alcohol-related laws in some towns.
I applied once about a month ago, through SO, as linked in this post. I did not get a response, not even a cursory one. As you can see in that thread [0], someone tells care evolution that their link is dead. They do not get a response. Basically, this organization is pretty bad at engaging. It leaves a bad taste in the mouth as an applicant. It takes time on both sides; hiring and applying. Not taking the time to respond to applicants or potential applicants looks bad, and discourages interest.

Then get a PHEV. I've had my Volt for almost a year now and although I don't drive a ton, I've managed to get about 80% of my driving done on pure electric. The other 20% is road trips where I still get ~40-45 mpg.

Just mentioning that "unlimited undo/redo" meant that it was really fast to undo and redo one step in Word. This system didn't necessarily enable an undo history like we expect from word processors now. In fact, up to Word 5.1a for the Mac and Word for Windows 2.0, Word didn't have undo history. Undo would undo the last action, and then it would undo the undo. I believe undo history was added to Word 6.0.
Government censorship of the Internet is prohibited by Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and by Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, both of which guarantee everyone's right to receive and impart information and ideas regardless of frontiers.

The Spanish government's censorship of online speech during the Catalonian referendum period is so wildly disproportionate and overbroad, that its violation of these instruments seems almost beyond dispute.

Self taught programmer, Psychology Graduate; trying hard to break into the programming world. What I lack in experience I make up with a - semi stoic - enthusiasm. Besides English, I also speak Spanish and conversational German.
I'm just an amateur sailor but I had an incident in the Atlantic on a racing yacht where I came up top just prior to a shift change and said "isn't anyone concerned that we're going to go right into the side of that tanker." The guys up top (including the watch leader) said the skipper was on it. I pointed it out to the skipper downstairs and he said "it's alright, I can see it on the radar." I replied "I think you'll find that's a squall, that's the ship". Rather sobering!
They emphatically do not. Ignoring types doesn't give you a type system "for free"; much the same way that building a shelf doesn't make you a librarian.
So what happens in Forza Horizon 3 which has Groove integration for in-game music?
Another founding principle of YC is that its for the upper crust of society.

Exceptions are made, but in general, the poor need not apply. YC actively excludes poor people through socioeconomic discrimination.

YC truly is "the Harvard of accelerators" as their homepage proudly quoted.
This reminds me of a car sales strategy I heard a long time ago. Don't sell people the car they need for the life they have, sell them the car for the life they want. That's one way you end up with huge pickup trucks being grocery getters and such. They were sold on the idea of owning horses and pulling them around, but that isn't the life they have...

The same ideas work well to discourage EV ownership.
But you're just applying your own, personal definition and not the definition that everyone else uses.
Hello, yes IDs are delta compressed so they use actually just a few bytes per entry (often just 2) instead of 16.
As a startup founder, I wish every startup can be part of YC. But at the same time, I hope YC does not end up investing ALL promising startups (which become big later) -- because if that is the case, it will be a disaster for any other startups that fail to get in YC, the unfundable signal is way too strong to investors.

In that sense, I appreciate companies like Buffer, Uber/Lyft etc.
Because they do not mean a position, but a special ID.

Ha, I was just going to post that.

Launching a DRM platform with the name "PlaysForSure" and then repeatedly making content not play for sure isn't really building trust in your company and branding.

But that is not how Bitcoin will scale. Rather, transactions will go off-chain.

Edit: mining effort is dominated by difficulty anyway, not throughput.
They aren't stupid, but I'd suspect they've drunk their own kool-aid, which seems to be the standard operating procedure at organizations gone awry. Especially towards the top where you get selection pressure for confidence.

The ability to think rationally is tightly coupled to the ability to rationalize so smart people aren't actually less likely to participate in collective madness.
Right, since Charles Simonyi wrote both originally.
This task becomes more difficult once you need to undo calculations performed on the GPU. Not sure I will encounter a nice way to reverse those operations without numerical inaccuracies.
To clarify, since the edit window expired, I bet that Apple books a lot of their expenses as infrastructure investment or other things that don’t factor in as costs in those profitability calculations. Accounting wise they made a huge profit and then reinvested that in their company. But their customers only bought that hardware at such high prices because of the value add these investments provide.. so in Apple’s fairly unique case I’m not sure standard accounting practices give a good view of the situation.
Back when I did accounting for a few years, I routinely found more than one way to solve the problem at hand. And I cross-checked.

I remember in particular one instance, where I spent a day tracking back to three garbage "test" orders that a development team was injecting into production (our live accounting systems), assuming no one would even notice in the midst of the normal "slop" in the system due to incorrect coding and habituation to "these systems are outdated/buggy/German/yadayadayada".

I find it kind of unfathomable that e.g. a destroyer class ship would not have multiple means of knowing where it is -- founded upon real-world, what you can observe around you and in the sky, situational awareness. And that they would not be cross-checking these as a matter of routine.

You're a war ship. Do you think e.g. the enemy is going to tell you before they take out or corrupt your satellite navigation?

'But we're not at war.'

Well, you spend billions and billions each year on training exercises. How about some of the simplest, least expensive, and most direct training possible, on a routine basis? I.e. run your bridge and crew with a persistent eye towards ingraining the skills before you need them?

Not constant bullsh-t schedules that deplete them and inhibit learning. (How well do you remember the day after pulling an all-nighter?) But skills that will prove critical, and the vigilance to be pro-active in using them.

That includes training for stress -- including functioning during sleep deprivation. But not as a lifestyle.

Anyway, same for me, in software. Cross-check. Don't assume. But a lot of what I've seen around me, is anything but that. Even and especially in our so-called profession.

There are definitely professionals -- I've worked with some. Whether there is a well-defined, high-skilled profession? Yeah, that's a lot less clear.

It seems the navy needs to be asking itself what is actually professional, as well.

On Ingwe you can store templates, insert data into templates while sending email or SMS( by APIs and variables ).

I would love some feedback on the landing page and the product in general.
To be fair, PHP 7.1 with Composer is a very different language to PHP 4, for the better of course.
England's army occupies the six north counties of Ireland, so as to make its people subjects of the queen. Those who have stood up and fought back, to drive out this foreign army are "terrorists", and Rudd demands the ability to see the communications of the queen's subjects, on top of whatever else Orwellian CCTV monitoring nightmare the Ununited Kingdom already has.

Where are the transcripts of British intelligence collusion, when the English military gave guns to the loyalist death squads?
Linked list is a generic data structure with the linking information specified and none of the content is specified. Piece Table spells out what kind of content data to maintain, like the offset and length of the data fragments of the original document and the change log document.
It's pretty clear she's not being stupid and asking for the mathematically impossible. She wants capability to tap at the server end or some equivalent provided by the platforms; and she is quite right that she can regulate companies out of the UK market if they don't make that available. This already happens in Asia and Russia to our knowledge and will soon be everywhere if it isn't already.
That would actually be a really cool partnership.

* "What was that song?" Bing integration to play directly from search results. Subscribers get the while track, otherwise get a 1m preview.

What matters isn't how long the charge lasts, but how long it takes, and how awkward that is when you really need a charge.

If I remember right, the stats for the Bolt were that (when empty) it can charge 100mi of range in 30 minutes, but after that the charge rate falls off quickly, and a full charge actually takes much longer than you'd expect.

If you get unlucky and get to a charge point but the charger is occupied, you're going to be waiting up to 30 mins to get a 30 min charge, taking an hour to gain 100mi range. If I'm on a longer drive, that's just not something I want to put up with.

Imagine going skiing at a place that's 100mi away. It's winter, so you're running the heater in the car, and the ski resort is inherently uphill from where you live, so you use more than 50% of the car's range to get there. When you get to the ski resort, early arrivers have already filled up the chargers. So now you have to park somewhere else (possibly a shuttle ride away from the lifts), and come back off the mountain at lunch see if a charger is available, fetch your car, maybe hang around until the others actually move their cars off the chargers, etc. Ugh. Sorry, but I don't want to be the early adopter in that situation, and I'm wondering if there will be enough chargers to make the problem disappear once EV adoption is high. Range extenders in the car make a lot of sense to me.

One thing I like about this post is the story of how the feature came to be: Someone who understood redis very well, thinking about the problem over literally years, eventually resulting in a more targetted and goal-driven thinking, and even that "specification remained just a specification for months, at the point that after some time I rewrote it almost from scratch in order to upgrade it with many hints that I accumulated talking with people about this upcoming addition to Redis."

I've been thinking about this sort of thing for a while, wanting to maybe call it "slow code" (like "slow food"). This is how actual quality software that will stand the test of time gets designed and made, _slowly_, _carefully_, _intentionally_, with thought and discussion and feedback and reconsideration. And always based on understanding the domain and the existing software you are building upon. Not jumping from problem to a PR to a merge. (And _usually_ by one person, sometimes a couple/several working together, _rarely_ by committee).
A charitable reading could be that she wants cooperation from the tech industry to place client software with broken encryption on requested target machines.

That would work and would indeed require cooperation.
Chances are that most of the software you use every day was created by a developer with Tom Petty blasting in their ears.
