Full Time - SF

At Blend, we’re dedicated to improving lending. We’re an enterprise technology company, but our product affects the most important purchase most people will make in their lifetime—their home. For homebuyers, our product means a clear, guided, and stress-free path to a new home. For lenders, it means modern, easy-to-use tools that let employees spend their time helping customers, rather than on repetitive, manual tasks. By aligning and modernizing this archaic industry, we believe everybody wins.

We’re looking for someone who is a true problem-solver at heart. You don’t shy away from new challenges; the harder the problem, the better. We’re motivated by the fact that our product doesn’t just affect the lives of a few people in the Bay Area—it affects people all over the world.

We just moved into a new space in September located in the heart of the Financial District in SF, two of the top banks in the US are our customers, VC backed by Greylock and Andreessen Horowitz, and ready to explore consumer finance. We are an agile, fast working team ready to take off on this rocket ship!

We're hiring across all teams, which you can check out here: https://blend.com/careers/#current-openings

If you're looking for a Product Manager position, we have a super important role open now: https://jobs.lever.co/blendlabs/2fe7cde2-4b1d-4c3d-9b19-24e1...

> European colonisation was about exploiting the natural resources of the Africa and the Orient, not the women.

I meant for the entirety of european colonization ( its duration ), that the mass rape of women from africa to china was the norm. Not that rape was the only motivating factor. I think that was fairly obvious if you put that within the context of my other points.

Women, along with resources, land, slaves, etc were part of the equation. It wasn't the sole reason.
I’ve been hearing this for years. “Beware of PE ratio!” Yet I bought stock anyway (in all the FAANNG stocks) and have gotten huge portfolio growth.

I’m probably just a lucky idiot. Still lost money on my Litecoin gamble.
I'm not sure what your comment is about. I'll glance over the first 3 sentences since I'm not sure at all what you are trying to say and jump directly to the fourth one:

> Is k8s-hysteria getting so out of control that it's consuming Docker whole? Seems like it may be.

This confuses me the most. K8s and Docker are complementary technologies, not in opposition to each other. Maybe some less advanced users using k8s don't realize that it heavily uses docker (or rkt, or whatever container runtime you could think of), but how is that an issue? That doesn't mean there's a k8s-hysteria going on.
>Most retailers can't depend on just click through rates. If you see a ad for Vans, you might not purchase it online, but like traditional ads, it could make you think about it when you're near a shoe store.

GOOG has already largely solved this problem via in store / online-offline attribution of ad clicks. (https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/6361305?hl=en)
Nice reply, was secretly hoping someone would mention this. Funnily enough, we've encountered this at work before.

Beware of these folks. When I interviewed (when they posted a remote job here before) they told me after wasting a bunch of time that they aren't actually looking for remote devs. It's not clear why they keep posting remote listings here.

They also seem not to be called "Game Closure" anymore. They changed to "Weeby" and then "BlackStorm". Previous discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14485509

I'm really curious what they are up to.
Not enough information to sign up, sorry. If the app is really polished, take a screenshot and add it to the launch site maybe?

Wow, did not realize that DaVinci Resolve runs on Linux. Blackmagic continues to dominate in broadcast innovation, especially at their price points. Thanks.
Ha! I've had to do a few of those recently. Unfortunately, they were the ones where you write code as the hiring manager watches.

Not a fan of those...
Unfortunately not. Humanity has plenty of opportunity to examine it's biases now and for the most part, most choose to ignore them or deny them.

Just like people think They're smarter than they are, and are right more often than they actually are, and more in control of their decision making than are, they also think they're less biased than they are.

There is plenty of opportunity to confront that now around the world and for the most part people dont.

Humanity will decide to address biases when we decide / are convinced it's the right think to do, not because availability of more data.
> When I was young, it was the political right that would shut down heterodox opinions, like flag burning or atheism or same-sex couples on TV. But strangely enough, I feel more free to talk openly around my political right friends today.

I do wonder if it's as simple as you having drifted relatively towards the right (which may not be you drifting at all in an absolute sense; it may just be that the world around you drifted towards the left). There are extremely few people I feel comfortable expressing opinions like "The entire modern system of policing is fundamentally corrupt and unsalvageable" or "Borders are fundamentally immoral and we should figure out how to get rid of them" or "Bernie wasn't left-wing enough and I didn't trust him" around - perhaps one or two of my close friends, but certainly not among people I know from work etc.
For interested parties, from the overly lengthy "Done, Gets things smart post" referenced:

> Not the Smart, and Gets Things Done, Just As Soon As I Read Up On The Subject, On The Company's Dime

> Not superstars: superheroes! People who are freakishly good at what they do. People who finish things so fast that they seem to have paranormal assistance. People who can take in any new system or design for all intents instantaneously, with no "ramp-up", and who can immediately bring insights to bear that are quite simply beyond your rustic abilities.

I'll leave it to applicant judgement if this is the sort of place they want to work.

The default user agent policy is no-referrer-when-downgrade, which strips the referrer header going from HTTPS pages to HTTP resources.

There is no need to do anything “about” it. Simply recognize it and have empathy for those who don’t. No need for self flagellation and no need to avoid taking advantage of opportunities you might have. But don’t assume the entire world operates that way and take that into account when making decisions.

Everyone reading this is privileged to some degree (for example I didn’t spend my childhood in war zones as my parents did) and disadvantaged to some degree (there are things I like to do that for health reasons I no longer can). It’s no big deal, moral or otherwise, simply life.

But if you have empathy for others you will perhaps be less likely to say, “well I did it, so why can’t everyone else do it too?”
Most likely he was cast aside so Google can cozy up better with the Trump administration. Schmidt was close with the Clinton campaign, which Trump himself noted when they met:

Exactly. Apple also has said the iPhoneX was a phone to show new technologies. It may not move into the second cheaper slot next gen, and instead may just go away. If that's the case then of course they are starting to figure out how to slow down production to prep for later this year.

From the article: "The other course is called Philosophy and Feminism, in which we learn the core principles of intersectional feminism, queer theory, and feminist epistemology."

Those aren't real intellectual disciplines, so naturally the professor discourages debate.

Are you serious? Why can't it be that the CEO under performed and couldn't manage their increasing costs to pay Apple and Mozilla. Also, that they can't seem to sell consumer electronics unless they are low margin phones?
Now I wonder, has someone ran A/B tests but instead of using hill climbing for optimizing used simulated annealing?
I'd argue that they don't really fit most needs. To your issue with ctrl-a, fair concern, but you could just as easily use pinkie + ring finger. It's less movement than mac + a. Again, your hand remains open. Mac closes the hand, which increase nerve and joint issues.

Even if I grant the keyboard, at least in Linux you can easily layout a new keyboard. OSX makes that a pain. You end up having to purchase a tool that jimmies with the system internals to get the mapping to work more than 75%.

Ultimately I agree with the idea that it's people's own money. They should be free do with it as they please (though ironically many of the most ardent OSX users are near authoritarians like AntiFa that want to tax people to support pet ideas and the general removal of freedom). My point above was to commiserating with the OP that Apple produces overrated products when it comes to utility. If one prefers form over function, Apple is the way to go. If one prefers function/price over form, anyone else is better.
OTOH, I could reductio, humans can get better at language translation, while computers cannot.

scalability is being solved by lightning network which is already seeing alpha testing on the Bitcoin main net (production) I am doing what I have done every big drop in Bitcoin and buying a little each week

just because it performed in the past doesn't mean it will in the future but the same reasons I liked it still exist and are getting stronger. the market will lag behind lightning because people don't realize what it is yet and it might take a year or two but it will be back even stronger than $20k (the first time it's bought by a countries reserve bank it's game over cryotos will beat fiat then)
Humans can get better at driving. Instructional campaigns, assistive technology, art, these things can all make ya better.

I didn't know bag holding for 3 months is a thing when we are talking about a digital revolution.
As someone who has dealt with a lot of personal crap, it sounds to me like you aren't actually recovered yet. A personal crisis eats your world and when you think it is over, it really isn't.

Think of it kind of like major surgery. You don't go back to work full time the day after surgery. It can take weeks or months to recover post surgery.

I get super frustrated during periods when my energy is rising, but I still don't really have my act together yet. I am bored and restless and aggravated and can't focus and it makes me crazy.

Work on your physical health. Work on your sleep hygiene. Work on any loose ends remaining from your crisis.

You sound to me like someone still physically and mentally tired and not really over whatever went down. You need to completely recover before you will feel inspired or interested in anything.

If money is not an issue, give yourself another 3 to 6 months to wrap up your recovery process. Revisit The Meaning of Life and Whatever Shall I Do? type questions when you are more recovered.
Because Schmidt isn't the CEO. (note that I also don't really think its politically motivated either, but that's certainly more likely than thinking that Alphabet is underperforming).

I agree with the thrust of the article, that Google Translate is fundamentally limited (as most systems are) by its inputs and ostensible goals. But what does it mean to "really understand language"? What is the recognizable benchmark for "true NLP"?

At some point, how "good" comprehension/translation is very subjective, because it intersects so heavily with culture and history. Think of how debates still rage over interpreting Shakespeare among Western readers and academics, even though there isn't a language barrier.

I think this conceptually holds as much water as a colander.

Schmidt has been on his way out for a couple years - it appeared to have been part of a planned transition.
Because I'm so scared of getting cracked screens from accidentally dropping my phone, I'll usually get a heavy-duty case (I like the tech21 cases) to protect my phone. This pretty much nullifies anything about the aesthetics of the phone. But having a phone I don't need to worry about is more important to me than how it looks. I'm curious why others are willing to risk it after spending so much money on their phones.
It seems like you’re just complaining about not being able to have the same conversations with your co-workers that you could at a bar with your friend, after a beer or two.
It's the short-term nature of them I don't get. Football would suck if the top athletes were playing entirely different games in five years and leagues around existing sports were gone after twenty. The market need (perceived or real) for major publishers to replace their games every few years diminishes how seriously I can take them as competitive endeavors. It's fun watching greats like Brady and comparing them to other greats, and if I couldn't recall the greatness of the Cowboys from 20 or 40 years ago and use them as a measuring stick, it would be much less interesting as a fan.

Overwatch will probably be dead in ten years as a "sport". It's even more jarring with games that come out every year. There's really no reason for players to get professionally good at Battlefield 3 (Madden 14) if Battlefield 4 (Madden 17) is the same game but not. It's also less interesting as a fan.

I concur with the sentiment.

The risk is still there for dependencies, but it helps that the community for the most part follows "a little copying is better than a little dependency" as an adage.
Maybe start to know what our Creator is like, his attribute, and what our Creator want us to do. If you don't trust that there is an Creator, you just have to find out whether if Bible is our Creator's word or not, and talk about truth or not(compare Bible with some science and history), because all things about Creator can be found from Bible.

I think this is a good start, because of course our Creator is the person with most wisdom. And simply, our Creator is the one who create us, so we must know why he create us to have a meaningful life.
Heck, Trump even said it in his SOTU.
> Cloudfoundry is better in terms of governance and project’s direction.

The Cloud Foundry Foundation rules are very different from CNCF's and intentionally take DNA from Pivotal Labs. It has strengths and weaknesses.

> etcd is a pain in the entire CF stack in my experience

It's either been removed from CFAR, or is close to it, I lost track. A lot of time was spent before it was decided that etcd doesn't play nicely with BOSH.

It's come back into Cloud Foundry land via CFCR, as a Kubernetes dependency. Very nostalgic.
