TileDB, Inc. | Full-Time | Cambridge, MA or REMOTE (US) | https://tiledb.io

TileDB is a disruptive technology for storing and managing enormous volumes of structured data, adopting the best ideas from columnar and spatial database research to support fast updates, compression, and interoperability with scalable cloud object storage backends. TileDB efficiently stores data generated from variety of domains (genomics, finance, imaging, geospatial, etc) in a novel unified format as sparse or dense multidimensional arrays. Users can store their data in a unified namespace, while being able to efficiently access this data via a growing number of language APIs and interfaces (C/C++, Python, R and SQL data engines).

TileDB, Inc. has raised $4M in seed funding over the past 18 months. We are looking to aggressively expand our team. The new members of TileDB will help us build out a solution to enhance cloud interoperability, bring scalable computations to data stored in TileDB more easily, and improve areas such as data consistency, access control and sharing on the cloud through a managed service.

We currently have open positions in the following areas:

- Backend / frontend / full-stack engineers (Vue.js / Go / K8s)

- Experts in databases / database engines (C++ / Java / Scala)

- Scientific programmers (Python, R)

I know but before you could do both actions using the same dialog.
Articles like this are pretty much worthless without mentioning their workflow. Maybe YOU can gain massive productivity increases. That doesn't mean I can. It all depends on what we're doing and the tools we're using to do it. That interesting information is missing from this article.
As a cs student I am quite conflicted about this as well. Sometimes we do need answers, either to help break into understanding a problem or to confirm that we have not come to a terrible conclusion.

On the otherhand many classes are graded competitively, so there is enormous pressure to do well on homeworks while you know others have no scruples about being dishonest.
This is DRM and planned obsolescence all day long...just like with HDMI/HDCP it will make user's life a pain not to mention more expensive. I'm sure all the vendors are happy to advance new authentication schemes every year(i.e like hdcp 1.0,2.0,2.1) and resell you the same devices.
read papers on ArXiv
I found out my last year of uni that frat and sororities had a huge, well run archive of homework, tests and solutions for every class ever taken by members. This was the first time that I had been so close to structural class benefits. This is absolutely how these kids skated through, many of which should not have graduated.
As far as R# it’s about the increased efficiency. Everything else Linux Academy, Udemy, etc is about learning technologies.

If I had a desire to be an iPhone developer, I would gladly pay $99 a year to publish an app to the store to show to potential employees/clients.
The article seems to claim that this will protect against malware on USB sticks. This is, obviously, utter BS.

Also, unless literally every “trusted” USB-C device has its key and its core functionality on a secure chip, the bad guys will just compromise a signed device and make it malicious. As far as I know, many, many USB devices can have their firmware replaced with no authentication whatsoever.
Isn't it already crazy complicated?
How may years your EV have?

As said above while I do not have owned an EV myself I know few peoples with one and NO one, after an initial period of high enthusiasm, would buy another in the future.

So my data, surely not significant in statistical terms tell a really different story than actual marketing claims. And since car's are build in series I bet they have still a generally valid value.
Yes I am on linux, and I wouldn't want a closed source email client.
It would need to slow down due to traffic.

I'm totally sympathetic to the cause. But I also agree with the author, we can't ignore the fundamental of transit, or we will just build something even worse.

Assuming everyone could have a single passenger autonomous vehicle, ideally as small as possible, while still spacious enough to satisfy our elitism desires. And it were to pick you up and drop you off at your exact destinations.

How would traffic jams not be as huge an issue as they are today? If not more, assuming you got rid of mass transit?

Are we suggesting to massively increase the size of roads, or tunnel roads and layer them, but still, there's gonna be point of contention within the network, causing traffic again.

I feel that's pretty much the author's claim. That unless a radical idea to this problem is figured out, which I guess hasn't, then its just foolish to think we can all be picked up and dropped off wherever, riding solo at that. It won't scale. That's why its elites projection. From the problem itself, you can show it can only work for a small number of individual. But if you are that individual, you might think, I can just give this to everyone else, and problem will be solved. Forgetting the main purpose of why mass transit exists in the first place. Which isn't affordability of a car. But scale of efficiently moving large number of people around in limited space.
I have both of your experiences (with different games). I played many NES/SNES games a child, and experienced much awe and wonder, felt extreme freedom in what I could do, and was just sucked into the worlds crafted as a child. But due to limited fund, I didn't experience every such game, one being the first LoZ.

When I did experience in college, it didn't have the same wonder of the games I played as a child. Not just LoZ, but basically every 'missed' game I tried.

I think it is just a sign of growing up and learning about the man behind the curtain with fictional stories. As a child I felt like there was more game there than really was. In Chrono Trigger I felt like there was so much story I was missing. As an adult I realize that none of what I imagined was ever coded. It didn't exist.

As an adult I grapple that with fiction, it is all fake. As a child, I didn't have that weight. These days I try to capture of the magic of 'if this fictional world was real and not limited just to what the author(s) painted', but as a child that came far more natural.
The search is not bad when you know what you are looking for. It's fuzzy search that is missing, and a few UI adjustments.
Because that's all you have ever known. Watching TV or documentaries of cushy life seems sci-fyi or something that you dont't think about too much just like watching star wars doesn't make you colonize other planets.
In Germany unions ensure that Workers get a fair share of the profits - and they understand that the company must be profitable in order for that to happen. But in the UK unions just want to destroy companies in an effort to smash capitalism, they exploit Workers even more than bosses do. It’s probably too late but we need German style unions here, then people would join.
Keep in mind, this is in a country where light trucks and SUVs account for a huge proportion of personal vehicles, and where the average age of a car on the road is about twelve years. As the window of vehicle years shifts further, you can expect that proportion to shrink.

The DeepFake thing could be agitprop--there are allegedly a whole lot of blackmail videos featuring public figures that might become public and the elite need a way to dissuade the public about all of it. What better way that to say that it's all just computer-generated fakes? Our problem with these nefarious people is that we don't know what to believe and we can't even believe our own eyes.

Is the video a fake? Is it real? All they need is to cast some doubt and they win. Either it's a foreign intelligence operation or a domestic one, take your pick.

I personally believe that every politician has a blackmail file and the WESTERN agencies are to blame because that is the simplest answer--Occam's Razor. These Intelligence agencies run the world and they have dirt on everyone important. That is my take on this. IOW, most of the videos will end up being REAL not fake.

The accusations surrounding the Vatican are eye-popping if true. Think human trafficking, especially regarding children. We'll see.

Regardless of real or fake, don't you all think it's time that certain families stopped ruling the world?
I read that the situation is more nuanced than that. The Switch requests more power than expected because USB devices plugged into the dock might use a lot of power. So it needs to make sure enough power is available just in case.

I've heard that third-party chargers work. I could be wrong though.
How's the pay when the gov't is shut down?

Not trying to be cheeky -- genuinely curious does the shut down affect the pay of those on this team?
>One crucial issue is that the person who is being asked to do the work needs to feel that they can say no.

If more than one tele-operated cafe is founded, then their employees will have exactly the same choice as most people who work in the service industry today. If only one tele-operated cafe company is ever started, then it will not be a very big social change. That's really all I'm saying.

Of course, we could imagine that one company would become gigantic and also the world's only employer of disabled people, but that concern applies equally to every commercial enterprise and people group. Any company could become a labor monopsony in the right (wrong?) environment.

> China has a higher barrier to entry than any other market, esp. in the EV market, which is going to favor the homegrown options.

Tesla is already positioned ahead of other auto makers with the construction of the Gigafactory 3 along with a deal with the Shanghai government to build a wholly-owned local factory (a notable exception).
I would think they were typed on manual typewriters (so the tradition of using Courier probably stems from those days).
"Automaker sold 63,150 Model 3 in the fourth quarter" - [and this is only in North America] What Tesla has achieved is truly unbelievable and it is kind of hilarious to see HN meltdown and Tesla bashing. To give you a perspective on how much of a gigantic scale this is, BMW only sold 99,000 3/4 series in the US in all on 2017 [1]. Tesla is a carmaker who only sold ~100 vehicles in 2011. It is amazing how much of Tesla's success is under-appreciated in this forum.

Average wage growth and employment rates across a country are irrelevant for, well, almost anyone that's not specifically studying them.

Even on a more local level - the median income in London, say, is not interesting to a shop worker, and neither is it to a lawyer. It's just another Statistic(tm).

I don't know of anyone else (in real life) who even knows what the median income is, and about the only thing I've ever used median incomes for is to determine that the median person in my city is a serf (you'd require about double that to buy a small apartment).

By contrast, the stock market is at least interesting to anyone who has any savings (because market return is your baseline expectation for an investment). It should also be interesting to those who aspire to have savings (which, at least rationally, should be most people).

That latter point specifically is important because most people believe in, or at least desire, upward mobility. I (a person below the retirement age) expect that in ten years' time I'll have more than I do now. It would be odd for me to expect otherwise; that would imply that I should just sack off working and enjoy myself whilst I can.

I agree that linking it with things like presidencies is silly, though.
In this day and age it is surprising that people still fall for "Get Rich Schemes". Anyone selling Investment Advice, Business Advice, Products, etc that promise success, wealth, etc are charlatans.

These two took advantage of desperate people. There is little to no money to be made on AMZN today. No one is getting rich anymore.

> But you're happy to use arguments about race relations or civil rights in order to attack unions – any stick will do to beat a dog.

If you are so committed to the belief that unions are inherently good that you will out-of-hand dismiss anyone pointing out the ways that they have advanced white supremacist structures historically, and accuse them of false-flag concern trolling, you don't get to pretend that you care about "race relations" (ie, racism).

> Since you're arguing against unions, we can assume that you are right-wing, politically. As such, you probably don't, actually, care very much about race relations or civil rights.

Thanks for this absurd conclusion, I appreciated the laugh.
Cannot legally add a tow hitch in Norway though.
I find it truly amazing that New Horizons was able to take photos of a 20 mile object whilst flying past at ~8 miles/sec - that’s an incredibly small space and time window within which to capture the images. Does anyone know how NASA manages to pilot spacecraft with this level of precision? What kind of engineering processes do you need to enable this?
AWS CLI Builder: Build Your Own AWS CLI Commands
Our startup, which optimizes products for specific geographies by time, hosted a talk show in Melbourne where some speakers from Africa (Kenya and Nigeria) emphasized that it's not that Africa lacks resources. It's just that they don't have the correct resource at the right time at the right place.

We do that for first world countries but breaking into Africa or unknown third world countries is out of reach for most startups.
> Musk doesn't owe anything to anyone

Investors and board members definitely think otherwise.
Trailers are pretty much unheard of in the US. You either have or borrow a pickup truck instead, because everyone has one or knows someone that has one.

As a result, almost no cars in the US has a tow bar. Except pickup trucks. That don't really need them. Because you haul stuff directly in the truck.
I remember staying up all night waiting for my first renders to complete on my brand new amazingly fast 80286 with 80287 math coprocessor. It was amazing.
My vision of the future for the cleaning service industry:

Robot at home on stand by a la I,Robot movie

:"Good morning Mr. Anderson,
our remote cleaning specialist is ready to clean your home, do you comply?"

pass code confirmation needed

:"Thank you, our services will take approximately 45 minutes. Please stand clear while we complete our task. Thank you Mr. Anderson. Have a Wonderful day!"

:"Please note that your next remote cleaning will require a renewal of your service agreement. Please take time to fill in the survey, confirm your subscription, and adjust your cleaning times, and thank you again for being a valued customer here at CleanTech"

LOL day dreaming is fun.
Updating an “Intro to Web Design” Course
Hi folks. I'm a college professor teaching largely non-technical students. I used to teach our "intro to web design" course regularly, but haven't taught it since spring of 2015.

I'm about to teach it again for the first time in a while and while—at the level of these students—most of the material will be the same (file structures, html, css, js/jquery, a tiny bit of server-side stuff, like php and sql), I know the larger world of web design changes very rapidly.

So I'd love your advice on tools / standards / libraries / frameworks that have evolved or become newly popular in the last few years, and what that might mean for a novice/intro curriculum. In particular, I'd love to know what bigger trends like the rise of serverless, the ascendance things like node.js and GO, and the reimagining of mobile web design might mean for an intro curriculum.

Copyright question, the copyright page says draft published 12/29/2018, but the copyright is 2019; doesn't that mean somebody could have taken the work, published as their own as copyright 2018 on 12/30/2018 which would be earlier than the author's 2019 claim? I'm not a copyright expert by any means, but am always troubled when I see "Copyright $CURRENT_DATE" in electronic works, I thought it was supposed to reflect the earliest date of claim.

I believe that the 'using namespace <xxx>;' is discouraged now-a-days.

I believe the more preferred way is to be explicit by 'using std::cout;' for each and every function you want to "shorten/cleanup"
A roomba[1] can't, but something that can put in the elbow grease to scrub tiles in my bathroom can trivially destroy the caulking, or damage the drywall.

Something that can reach up to dust the moulding on my ceiling can trivially knock over a standing lamp/potted plant/etc.

Even something as simple as the pin that switches my bathroom from shower to bathtub mode needs to be handled carefully (Otherwise, you'll snap the bathtub faucet off.)

Futzing with my dishes? Thanks, I'll figure out how to do it myself.

[1] And as I said, vaccuming is not the time-intensive part of cleaning. I have disposable income to blow on toys, I hate cleaning, but I'm not remotely interested in a roomba.
Because it was an 8-bit chip with no future in 1985 and CP/M was pretty much dead. Two 8-bit chips was just a bad idea.
>> its called disabling client isolation mode.

So then you proved your statement wrong, there is not a setting or feature called "enable p2p"

> Musk doesn't owe anything to anyone, if anything he garnered interest for selling more cars to the 18 million people that watched that podcast

He owes a lot to his shareholders, and wiped 9% off the value of Tesla with that podcast. If he has to be entertaining as well as reassuring them he's also laser focused on solving production challenges - and CEO of an engineering company is definitely a job description where being dull is no disadvantage - there were certainly better ways of doing it.
It varies strongly. Handheld charging is typically fine, it's using unofficial docks which cause problems (since Nintendo didn't follow USB-C spec when it charges via that)
You can't put a roof rack on a Model X because of the wing doors.
France tried to increase tax on gasoline, and this happened:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_vests_movement

I'd also guess that if any government in the US would increase gasoline taxes to European levels (more than doubling the gas prices), they would be quickly voted out in the next elections.
His pitch on the solar tiles that would cost* at or less a typical shingled roof had me incredibly sold, but it seems that has taken a back seat as of late in his endeavors. Yeah, would love an electric car, but until they hit the $35k price point, it isn't happening anytime soon for me. But a fairly priced solar setup for home? Sign me up.

* not sure if it was initial cost or cost over the life of plus the energy savings, I don't remember nor really care. Either is fine by me.
I'm not saying that I have requirements, just that there are different considerations when choosing a tech stack other than compile/run speed.

Several cross-platform UI frameworks do exist, all with different pros and cons. I don't think it would be possible for a single UI framework to override all other considerations when choosing a tech stack. It would have to be pretty magical.
But really, is this any different than these "coding academies" where you pay $10k to "learn to be a programmer in 30 days and get a great job making $100k+ a year"?
Bluetooth LE is very robust. Much more so than a camera and screen.
Tesla just sold 63K Model 3s in a single quarter. Despite availability of Leaf and Bolt [both are cheaper]. None of the vehicles you have listed are true competitors to Tesla at this time. True competition will be something like an electric 3 series or C-class
