Penguin Pay | Senior Fullstack Engineer | New York, NY | Onsite | https://www.paywithpenguin.com
In most cases, medical expenses are not a patient’s decision — they’re a necessity. Penguin Pay is reimagining medical financing so that it doesn’t take advantage of the patient, and instead provides a best-in-class lending experience that preserves their physical and financial health. Our initial offering is a 0% interest loan targeting the 25 million Americans skipping doses, taking less medication, or delaying refilling prescriptions due to cost. Patients using Penguin Pay show increased adherence, fewer hospital visits, and importantly, stay out of a dangerous cycle of high-interest debt.

We're looking for a full stack engineer with frontend expertise to work on our website (paywithpenguin.com) and our microservice suite that handles loan origination and servicing.

Stack: Javascript, NodeJS, ReactJS, MongoDB, Heroku, AWS; to a lesser extent, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, TypeScript, Express, Python, Flask

Feel free to apply here: https://boards.greenhouse.io/paywithpenguin/jobs/1189390 (mention HN on "How did you hear about this job?")
Well, I admit some minor digging is necessary to see what I have planned. The marketing page for sr.ht gives you an idea:

https://sr.ht

There's more tangible stuff here than "trust me, I'm working on it", I hope. A lot of the non-mail-related work exists and I'm getting started on mail stuff now, so I'm starting to write about it to spurn discussion and start paying attention to people's concerns with the approach.

You can also see some of the specific email-related stuff I have going if you want to dig some more:

https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/lists.sr.ht/

https://git.sr.ht/~emersion/python-emailthreads/

The latter in particular could give some good insight into how this stuff is going to take shape. Would love to hear more of your concerns, keep them coming!
> Well sure, but if that's your threat model then don't you need to restart whole VMs/machines rather than individual containers?

You sure do, but you pay someone else to deal with all that nonsense. And because you can share those VMs, it's cheaper.

> I appreciate that they make sense as a deployment solution for e.g. Python

Any language-specific solutions like .war files have no answer for binary dependencies or utilities provided by a package manager, and they're entirely right not to try and solve that problem. You also occasionally will get a third party that requires you run their awful utility... you may be seeing where my skepticism of "we'll just write good code" comes from.

The other advantage is your deployment artifact has a single identifier, so it gives you a much nicer story for rolling back a bad deployment.

> ... but you pay most of the price in terms of not being able to use normal IPC mechanisms.

If I had computing demands that warranted IPC via shared memory, I'd probably agree the overhead of containers is too much.
I do know about this restriction. You can get your physician to write you a note stating that you need an assisting device for locomotion purpose and show this to the officer trying to site you.

Do yoh have any source to back any of those assertions? Up until now I've heard nothing similar to anything you've mentioned. In fact, IIRC AMD has been hemorrhaging cash until very recently due to the introduction of the Ryzen product line, and still they barely break even. That appears to be entirely incompatible with the rosy scenario you've described.

Yeah, this is happening, we had to know it would. Imagine if real estate transactions weren't recorded publicly - a small number of real estate agents would create a private database of all transactions, while everyone else would be limited to snippets of conversation and bits of unreliable info posted here and there on the web. The disadvantage to being an outsider to the information would be overwhelming.

This is one reason why I favor making all salary information public. I know it freaks a lot of people out, but I work for a public university where all salaries are public, and while the earth shattering problems I hear about haven't materialized, the information it brings to the workforce is very positive (you can actually see what the university pays your future colleagues when you weight a job offer). The main disadvantage is that our info is public but private colleges keep it, well, private, which probably does put the publics at yet another disadvantage (Stanford can easily find out how much all the profs and staff at Berkeley and UCSF earn, but not the other way around).

If this happened in the private sector, I think there would be a bit of a well deserved reckoning, but far more good would come of it than harm. If a blanket requirement would be too intrusive or unconstitutional, I think the gov't could make it a condition for H1B visas, which does have a nice consistency to it (if a corporate HR dept is going to be empowered to decide who does and doesn't get to work in the US - a massive power usually reserved for government - then it's very reasonable to ask for a high level of transparency).

By this, I mean that if a company requests an H1B visa, they must make all salary info public the way public institutions are required to, not just for the particular job, and not anonymously.

The watch is part of the iPhone ecosystem. You can't use a Watch without buying an iPhone. The watch is an accessory to the iPhone.

"Designing x86 based hardware" is relatively easy. Intel does all of the heavy lifting with designing and integrating the components. Apple has shown any expertise in designing chips that are a match for Intel's on the high end.

Every other processor transition that Apple has done - 68K -> PPC -> Intel involved a massive CPU advantage that made emulation viable. That wouldn't be the case with x86 -> ARM. On the other hand, Apple had to migrate processors just to stay competitive with Wintel each time. If they stay with Intel, they don't have to worry about not having competitive performance with other PC manufacturers.

Finally, Apple has shown no expertise in delivering chips that are competitive with Intel on the high end. I'm sure they could do it, but they don't get the benefit of spreading their engineering fixed costs across almost a quarter billion devices a year if they develop a high end ARM desktop chip like they do with iOS devices.

>That being said, the only time I feel this is in social settings and it's usually minor. People ask where I went to school and then I usually get an "oh?" back, as they've never heard of it. But it's never really impacted my professional life to my knowledge.

I work at a top tech firm, and while we hire across the board, at the micro level I have seen strong biases by some managers for the top tech schools. As an example, I once forwarded the resume of an undergrad whose GPA was decent (not stellar), but whose resume indicated strong initiative and interests related to software (Lisp, etc - material not taught in that school). He made lots of excuses not to even interview this person. And later hired someone with a really low GPA (low 2.x), but he was from Berkeley! This person did well in the interview, but the candidate from a lower ranked school never even got an interview.

> whiteboarding coding questions

Ah, you haven't figured out the trick. When somebody asks you to whiteboard something, write down all the nouns they said, draw boxes around each noun, and draw lines randomly between the boxes. Keep talking and pointing at the boxes and the lines, and then draw circles around some of the boxes (but keep talking - this is important). Point emphatically at some of the boxes, underline some of the words, and redraw some of the lines - bonus points if you can use different colored markers. As long as you keep talking, the interviewer will get bored, assume you drew something smart, and offer you a six figure salary.
"Point to point" is a huge part of the appeal of cars over the existing public transportation network. We dedicate a ton of space to enabling point to point for cars, and barely any for bike docks and the like.

Dockless scooters are the most effective thing I've seen yet - in very limited areas, so far - at starting to combat the limitations of the public transit network compared to the road/sidewalk/parking lot network. Bikes are too big to work well in this way, but scooters have done well.

I taught for one semester at a big ten university, many years ago. And I live in a college town, so I have a lot of friends and relatives who are teachers.

It's widely held that student evaluations are proportional to the grades that the students expect to get. My office mate, and a professor, were co-teaching a course, and they got into shouting matches about grades, because the professor was up for tenure, and wanted better evaluations from his students.

In addition, students will badger their teachers for better grades, and dealing with it adds to the workload and stress of teaching. After each exam, I had a line of students at my door, asking me to review the grader's marks.

My view is that it's always marginally easier to give out higher grades, even if there's no overt pressure from above.
I knew it was going to be a rough read when the first paragraph said "Let’s explore in this annotated twitter thread." Maybe it shows my age, but I loathe twitter threads, be they annotated or not.

Thanks for your detailed thoughts, I'm taking all of this down and using it to influence my work on lists.sr.ht (the mailing list and code review tool I'm building).

The chores of this approach - finding and collating feedback, sheparding a patch through the flow, and so on - are all things I'm acutely aware of. I don't think we need to throw the baby out with the bathwater like GitHub does, though, and I see these as places to improve our tools rather than replace them.

Take a look at this here:

https://git.sr.ht/~emersion/python-emailthreads/tree/test/da...

The specific output format you see here is just a testing tool, this isn't the final user-facing product. The important part is ingesting a bunch of emails and creating a thread where you can associate all of the responses over time with the particular parts of the patch. Combining this with a gerrit-like tool which tracks new patches over time and avoids duplicating review work is planned.
