Unnamed Yet | CTO | Germany, Hamburg or Berlin | Full-Time | ONSITE | 10% equity

Use your chance to design a product from scratch. I am searching for a CTO who wants to be a part of building an mobile App that will change the whole restaurant industry. We already have over 200 restaurants as partner and funds are on its way. We will start in Q1/2019 on technical green grass.

You would...

* Work for an extraordinary life-work-balance and a fair, market-driven compensation* Have the chance to build a product from day one and disrupt a whole industry

* Be responsible for building the app (currently the plan is to build it together with a brilliant app development agency. I am curious about your opinion)

* Hire your own tech team, take responsibility for your team and the product

We…

* Care for personal skills and want to benefit from your knowledge

* Believe in flexibility instead of 40h/week

* Live a feedback, non-bullshit-speak culture

* Honour error-making instead of unconsciousness

Interview process: virtual session(s) with CEO; on-site beer and pizza with CEO; work out your own contract as you will be the first person you will hire for your tech team;)

Contact me: whoishiringyc@gmail.com (if you are german, application in german is absolutely fine)

Avoid the confidence gap and reach out to me without bullshit-speak. I am interested in… a brief introduction of you as a person. what projects did you work on in the past? References are really appreciated. what experiences do you have in the app industry? what companies did you work for? why do you think you are the right person to build a tech team/app from scratch? which programming languages are you capable of?

Take the chance. Apply. Everything else, we can discuss later on.
Outside of purposeful oscillators, positive feedback loops rarely are a desireable thing.
Awesome! Thanks so much, that is a great help.

This would be the ideal, but in practice (at least where I work) it would lead to empty offices all the time, since everyone would be constantly getting their regular 9-5 time "comped" dealing with whatever fires come up the night before.
Are we going to still have branded charging stations going forward ?

It sounds a bit insane to have stations where you can get fuel for a mercedes but not a kia.

Here's one example. [1] It claims 1.4 million monthly viewers translates to about $17K per year. Yes, a few people have made relatively big money ($millions) but that's for billions of views.

A popular TV show averages in the neighborhood of 15 million viewers these days.

ADDED: So the parent comment seems pretty close. Maybe $150K/year gross revenue for viewership in neighborhood of the most popular network programming. That's in the ballpark of barely supporting two guys and their gear.

Every day results in another example of why free platforms supported by advertising might not be viable a long term solution.

I've always said that cheap is better than free. If all services like Tumblr had debuted at a nominal $0.25 or $0.50 a month and that had become normalized as a way to support the platform without mining data or being at the whims of advertisers, the internet might be in a better place.

Instead we have clickbait, engagement addiction and users as products and not customers.

I mean, maybe this is where neural networks that forget are valuable? They allow for exploration, and don't create local maximas in the same way?
For me, a pure black background is the enemy; because macOS doesn't have window borders, only shadows, it's necessary to have some contrast to differentiate between the edges of windows with dark content or dark-themed windows and the background.

In that case, a good wallpaper is just as functional as a plain background, if not more; I usually pick my wallpapers based on contrast with my typically-displayed windows and the usual colours of their content.

Besides which, functionality and aesthetics aren't mutually exclusive.
To give some context, this is moving away from Microsoft's "open source" license that basically requires you to give Microsoft access to whatever you make with their libraries.

Moving to MIT is great for this. As someone working on FHE, we'll finally be able to see some interesting applications with this library other than Microsoft's research. Great job to the SEAL team!
> If it cost $14.99 a month to watch a small set of YouTube channels

Actually this exists, it's called Youtube premium and there are some channels that offer some content exclusive to the platform (as far as I'm aware)

I have no idea how it's doing but I also don't have any interest in trying it out, I'd much rather support specific content streams via patreon or other offerings.

Transcriptic (YC W15) | Backend, Full-stack engineers | Menlo Park, CA | https://transcriptic.com | FULL TIME; ONSITE

Transcriptic is turning biology into an information science by creating a fully automated cloud wet lab. Biologists anywhere can submit and run experiments over the internet on-demand and without investing up-front in a lab facility.

The Transcriptic Common Lab Environment (TCLE) takes Autoprotocol (http://autoprotocol.org/), a high-level JSON description of a biological protocol, and executes it on our custom-built robotic workcells. The protocols we handle routinely involve solving constraint programming models with thousands of variables and constraints in order to find the best plan that fulfills the scientist's biological intent.

Scientists manage their experiments through our web application or via our API. We provide a single platform that controls scientific devices from many vendors in a unified way, and an interface to control our automated labs.

Can someone help me understand why Google would create such a solution for the Chinese government? Is it money (does Google need it)? How else does Google benefit? Does this mean other search engines like Bing will follow suit?
Who's fine with it? Which of those actually understand the ramifications? Are any of them also in the group which opposes helping China censor the internet?

What always helps me move on from bad decisions is thinking of it like paying for a lesson. If I make a bad decision and it costs me $2000, that lesson cost me $2000. This ensures that I will learn from it and not make it again since the cost was so high. Personally, this helps me not dwell on bad decisions too much as long as I learn and adapt from it. It keeps me looking forward.

Hey, since you mentioned it, could you tell me where to find your blog?
This is a Chrome extension I made that adds various UI enhancements to Google Scholar's case law search. Features include: a quick-view window for easy navigation, multicolored search-term highlighting and hash-marking, cited case highlighting, clickable search-result snippets, pin-cite recognition in case links, clickable search terms for cycling through occurrences, Bluebook citation cleanup, and two-columned printing.

I appreciate any feedback.
I was hoping to keep the full retro experience complete with whirring disks and head clicking, but if I can't get these old controllers to talk to newer drives, then yeah, I may have to go down the SCSI-SDCard route. :(

I'm also trying NOT to expand into Commodore 64/128 as well, as I'm rapidly running out of room... but I never owned a C128 back in the day, and I REALLY want one!
>"Yet, a little more than a week later, Google CEO Sundar Pichai attempted to invoke an engineering defense by arguing that Google would not need to censor 'well over 99 percent' of queries."

That's Statistics for "Go Fuck Yourself"
> A YouTuber with viewerships as high as mainstream TV shows can barely afford "2 guys and a mic."

But this stands to reason. Mainstream TV show viewing figures refer to the number of adults 18-49 in the United States watching the show live(-ish now that L+SD and C+7 rates are used to sell ads) including at least putatively watching the various 3 minute blocks of commercials in the middle. YouTube viewing figures show the number of worldwide plays by all people in or out of the demo, most not in the United States and in less valuable markets, many adblocking, those who don't adblock often skip ads, and the ads are either inline or pre-roll. And the content is shorter, so it's sort of unclear how an 11 minute video should compare to a 42 minute television series.
Yeah, but companies like Imgur and PlentofFish reach millions of users without hiring anyone. So for similar companies that do hire, I'm wondering what exactly are all of those people doing all day. Is it just bs/busy work? Or are of the founders of Imgur, PlentofFish, etc. so clever and capable...they're simply more productive than a team of people.

It is. 40% of french emissions are due to personal transportation (cars), 8% airplanes.
Tumblr was a great place for porn. This is a great opportunity for a competitor to snap up the community and I wonder who it will be.
The parts of Android that don't use the C ABI are not an OS though.
Mozilla Hello ? This is a very very old website if it still mentions that product. I think it was shutdown years ago.
Good for him but this is not very helpful. Google needs to be brought to admit that freedom of information is not their business, and at a minimum they should be pressured to be transparent about the kind of stuff they censor, inside and outside of china. (Pity that GDPR did not cover that). Thanks to recent events, its no longer taboo to say you censor stuff, and the question needs to move to who benefits from that and who loses. Childish responses about "99 percent" are just that, infantilizing and insulting.

You forgot cumin seeds. Add some coconut milk and you get an excellent dish.
It's predictable that Internet companies stop being benevolent when their growth has ended, everyone will move elsewhere and it'll happen again in a few years.
Anorexia (and pro-ana websites with words like "thinspo") were around before Tumblr even existed, so it's nothing new. I suppose recommendation algorithms and the existence of this stuff on popular platforms like Tumblr and Instagram could make it more viral and spread more, but I wonder if that's true (e.g. if Anorexia has increased in the past 10 years).
Not even getting that far. The HDD SCSI controller just wont see two of my disks. It sees another disk but wont boot (to floppy) with it connected...

We'd be quite happy to hire engineers who left Google over not working on censorship. Moral courage and giving up money for something you believe in is a lot harder than people think.
> What you're asking for is a common ABI. To have shared classes, basic data structures, or even error handling, a binary format needs to be defined and adhered to. Of course, to bake all that into languages (and their runtimes), is a great responsibility; but more than that, it can easily be a severe limitation in the way any language may like to do things.

Being able to speak a common ABI doesn't necessarily guarantee that your local ABI has to conform identically to it. In Rust, for example, you need to add a repr(C) to be able to actually guarantee that the layout conforms to the C ABI. CORBA IDL is something that tried to achieve this kind of capability.

You are the reason for the article above. Congrats. Now celebrate your victory.
I don't love the term 'mansplaining', but if there is a term that describes essentially the same idea but in the context of academic fields, its exactly how I would describe the central thesis of this blog post and a trend I've encountered frequently in the last couple years. There is a rising tide of CS people who have just latched onto the hype of data science, and now go around letting statisticians know that no, they aren't actually interested prediction, they don't actually know how to work with large data, and don't actually work with non-parametric methods. It certainly comes as a shock to all of the statisticians in the world who have indeed been working on these types problems for a long time now.
Maybe Verizon just signed a deal with Instagram to shut down?
Yes, it's money. China is the only large market where Google isn't dominant. If they want to keep growing (and justifying their stock price) they have to expand in China.

Really, the answer to a question "Why is X company doing Y?" is almost always money. There's no question of "needing it": the only raison d'etre for a corporation is to get more money.
There has been a "deplatforming" wave in the US where large monopolistic (or oligopolistic) megacorps censor people from their platforms. And by-and-large this censorship seems to have been well received by the media.

You may not like Gavin Mcinnes or Milo Yiannopoulos or Alex Jones (I don't!) but I also don't think the tech monopolies should be allowed to erase them from the internet without losing their common carrier protections.
