SEEKING WORK - Remote

Location: Los Angeles, CA

I specialize in helping early stage companies bring their ideas to life as new apps and websites. Beyond creating a beautiful app with you, I'll make sure we're measuring the right things so you can get the best outcomes. I build apps to allow quick iteration and short feedback loops. My experience at startups has taught me how to pick the right features to build and validate quickly, which saves you money and time. I can help you integrate marketing, analytics, and sales to get the most out of your creation.

One of the first companies I worked with, SwoopSrch, I helped take their rough idea of what they wanted to an MVP in a weekend. Then I spent a year helping them iterate on the idea. I spent a few years at Rackspace building massively scalable cloud infrastructure. Then, I started as the first engineer at a startup, Triggr Health, building apps to help people in addiction recovery and help with mental health issues. I'm just finishing up a contract with the University of Maryland migrating some Flash apps to React and handling some challenging performance issues.

I've got experience with:

- React Native

- React

- iOS/Android native development

- NodeJS

- Python

- Django

- OpenStack, AWS, Ansible, DevOps

Oh no, they're way down in the milliseconds.
The amazing thing is that BTC is still 3.5k after the countless money heist that happened.
Actually I really thought that it was dead after Mt. gox.

No, there is no legal difference. A small typo in a crypto contract does not entitle the beneficiary to the funds. Your access to restitution through the courts is exactly the same.
Show HN: Footing - A Foundation for Developing REST APIs with Express and Nodejs
While I didn't downvote you, one could certainly make the argument that "how you feel" is, well, maybe a little...idiosyncratic and perhaps not that well-informed?

First: I'm sure there are "good free bloggers" out there, but there's far, far fewer that aren't associated with new media companies now than there were a decade ago. Making money as an independent blogger is exceedingly difficult in 2019 in a way that just wasn't as true in 2009.

Second: McClatchy, BuzzFeed, and Vice are all known for investigative journalism, not opinion pieces. McClatchy was once considered one of the best newspaper companies in the business, primarily based on investigative work; while Vice and BuzzFeed certainly are known for clickbait material, they've both been funding serious news stories for years. "Free bloggers" just aren't competition in this space.

Third: You know that BuzzFeed in particular is in the straits that they're in because they tried to pivot to video, right? Mashable is nearly out of business because of their attempt to do so. Also, investigative journalism tends to rely on, well, investigation, not "descriptions of tone and body language."

Fourth: there is, in fact, a really good way to support investigative journalism. It's--you know what I'm going to say, right?--paying for it. It turns out that an awful lot of newspapers, magazines, and journalism web sites have mechanisms set up that enable you to give them money, often on a recurring basis!
Clarisights | Frontend, Backend, Data engineers | Bangalore, India | Full-Time | ONSITE | https://clarisights.com/careers | 15LPA - 40LPA

Clarisights is an data ingestion and analytics platform that enables marketers to make sense of and gain unique insights from data coming in from all the sources (analytics, ads data, CRM, Payroll, etc). Our platform is a seamless in browser experience - the users just add the data sources they want to track, our backend then pulls in data from those resources and stores it into our own database. The user then proceeds to the visualisation page to create the required data visualisations.

We have found product market fit and have recently closed a $2M round from top European VC's. Currently a team of 20 people looking to scale.

We deal with a lot of data and need real-time responses - you will have an opportunity to work on some really hard engineering problems. We often run into performance issues in popular open source tools and libraries - we don't hesitate to find the bottlenecks and fix them. Team is lead by Ex-Google and Ex-Facebook folks who've got lots of experience building scalable production software.

We're looking for frontend, backend and data engineers at all levels (Architects, senior, mid-level and interns). https://clarisights.com/careers

Tech stack :

Backend : PostGres, MongoDB, Docker, Kubernetes, Ruby on Rails, GoLang, NodeJS. Microservice architecture hosted on Google cloud platform.

Frontend : React, Redux, Styled components, Jest, FlowType, WebPack, etc.

I don't work at Facebook, but I don't think that's intended primarily as an obfuscation step. Instead it's a _compilation_ step. It ensures that css rules for widget X can't accidentally apply to and therefore break break widget Y.

But yes, it is effectively obfuscated, and it would be foolish to try to reverse-engineer it every time the identifiers change, since they're effectively random.

No one pays HN to promote anything!
I’m not actually using night themes, but rather OS-level inversion. It might be that it’s the same effect because the text is actually dark grey, which ends up being inverted to light grey.

I actually think it’s more likely that many sites use very lightweight fonts, which means that in night mode there’s a lot of dark pixels showing.

> The irony of the new digital world that’s enabled the rise of these kinds of incidents is that it relies for its success on some of our most ancient characteristics. We’re tribal, and we’re wired to want to punish, sometimes savagely, those who transgress the codes of our in-group.

There is something interesting there. It lines up with what I observed as well. There is a pleasure in publicly taking down an opponent. There are two things going on there - one is simply defeating the "enemy" so one less problematic person to worry about. The other, more sinister pleasure is getting approval and adoration from "friends". Remove the audience, and it's just not as fun anymore.

The other problem is the audience is not just the local village, but basically everyone on the internet today and the future potentially. Everyone is watching, commenting, liking, up-voting and so on. Pleasing them all is very a nice high. And well you also have to be first. No waiting around or somebody "braver" and quicker will jump in front. Even better, you can do it wearing pajamas too. No need to go out in the cold, sharpen the pitchfork, look for the torch in the barn and so on.

If the enemy is not there, no big deal, there are usually ideological frameworks already built to generate easy "targets". Here the stupid comment meant that he hates all women, and is sexist, and is a tech-bro and deserves to be eliminated. Other such frameworks from the past were about communists, anti-communists (in ex-Soviet union), witches, terrorists and many others. If you hated your neighbor's haircut for example, you could write a letter to the police saying they engaged in anti-state propaganda and there was a good chance their life would be ruined forever. There is a similar mechanism at play here as well. There was another recent example with red hat wearing teenagers and the media and Twitter mess that followed. It's just becoming the norm and it's disappointing to see.

Yes, since conspiracies have been unveiled several times before, the possibility is always there. Now, one needs some clues to feed the conspiracy. If there is an investigation we may know more.
You have a really low bar for what constitutes “interesting”.

You should probably substitute "make money" with "subsidize it with our ad money".

> When Amazon got into the cloud business, they actually had most all of the non-software challenges solved already. It turns out that datacenters and distribution centers go in the same kinds of places and have very similar kinds of challenges. They benefited significantly from knock-on effects from running their existing business.

That sounds good in a blurb in CIO Magazine but is likely completely disconnected from reality.

The complexity of building a cloud provider is not primarily in the physical management of physical assets in a big box building.
YMMV... For me, the last straw was having to click away 2-3 banners that cover the content on every website and then often being slapped in the face with a subscription box. This is simply conditioning me to expect disappointment and hence to stop clicking on links. Even on HN I find myself clicking straight on the comment links to get an idea of what the link is about.

Because it's the people that matter, not the area of land. Or do you believe Siberia and the Australian outback should dominate a hypothetical democratic world-state?

Anyway, the electoral college is a 200+ year-old compromise meant to get the individual states to sign up for the union. At some point we should realize that 18th century geopolitics is not really relevant any more.
Greed to make money without honest work led many along wicket paths. Stupids will be slaugtered every now and then.

We have to learn when to participate & when not to. Learn to identify ponzi shcemes, coz they're here to stay.

Stop calling it “rideshare”. The driver is a not “talking a ride” and “sharing” it with you. They are a paid driver. This is a taxi service — not a carpooling service.

Please don't do tedious tit-for-tit flamewars on HN. You also crossed into incivility. That's not cool, and we've had to warn you about it before.
More like the advertisers who could cater to a person’s interest are not able to locate the individual.

Because the platform knows ads can be creepy, and will result in user disengagement.

Facebook often accurately targets people, and the result is terrified users.

So, the answer is other platforms have taken note, and are providing cover for users, to retain them.

This augments the return on ad spend, but only slightly, since ads actually aren’t very effective in practice. Ads are simply signage, nothing more. They don’t actually change behavior, but only reorganize behavior that usually would have happened anyway, so that the existing outcomes possibly land in the finite set of buckets differently.

Thus ad platforms only need to target so vigorously, and with that, it becomes obvious that targeting can be made less acurate, and buyers of ad space would never know.

So you can quickly see that Facebook’s game is absolute overkill, and other players likely underkill by a margin, with much improvement to their platform reputation.
Please don't do tedious tit-for-tit flamewars on HN. They're not interesting except to the two people who are tangling with each other, and even then not intellectually interesting.

The challenge isn’t when your tests are flaky. The challenge is when a test written by some guy who left the company begins flaking, and your preliminary investigation shows it’s a timing issue two layers below you in the stack, but the people who own that project insist you’re using it wrong and your test shouldn’t pass in the first place. It’s hard to sell why your team should drop everything to untangle that knot.

>Banking laws are meant to maintain stability. If they get in the way of that, they should at least be re examined.

I hope one thinks this can be done ad infinitum to maintain stability…
Yeah and imagine that faking a death certificate is even easier than that. That would make it a pretty effective metaphor for how easy it is.

If insurance stops paying out then companies will take data security more seriously. Their very existence will depend on it.

Net win for society from my perspective.
Sorry, I should have given the quote that I was referring to:

"It must also be said that given that the average life expectancy of a patient diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease is eight to 10 years, Reagan, who died in 2004 (10 years after his diagnosis), would have been extraordinarily long-lived for an Alzheimer’s patient if he was already suffering from the disease, as some claim, in 1984."

I was certainly being hyperbolic above in saying this article was the worst offender though. Here is also another mild case: (https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/california-senate-ban-he-s...), where the headline is geared toward the strongest claim and yet there is in fact a nonstandard situation in that there is a push within the committee to designate 'they' as the standard pronoun, and documents were altered. But seeing as the right winged media made the claims of banning themselves, Snopes is boxed in here.
That's the joke: it's super easy to fake a death certificate in India.

Lol, what planet do you live on? Sounds dope.

The battles to price externalities into markets here on Earth are all hard fought. By default if you can’t see it you don’t pay for it. Anything beyond that needs to be pounded out in the political ring.
Thanks for the clarification. English not being my first language, I find it difficult to catch jokes if they're worded that way.
I posted this a while back looking for testers, and I've posted again because now there is a playable demo on the website. Also we're live in both app stores now!
Now Tumblr is a sex-free haven for white nationalists and Nazis.

Is the author basing this on anything other than checking to see if white nationalists and Nazis are simply using the site as some sort of electronic forward operating base such that it's worth calling Tumblr a "haven" for these groups?

Asked a better way: if you go looking for group x on just about any website, isn't it fair to say you're probably going to find some? Is Tumblr really a haven for these people?

I ask as someone who without really trying, just managed to curate his tumblr "feed" to be full of classic cars, aviation, scifi and comic book stuff plus sometimes video game review, so I admit to being a bit ignorant as to what's going on outside my particular 'bubble' and will concede that I do lack some perspective on the matter.
It does cost more per print but not that much more to use the Strat. Mostly its just a big "emotional commitment" as people are afraid to take risks with so valuable a machine.

The others go non-stop. 1000's of hours. They are so cheap, and so ubiquitous that there are the equivalent of 2 more printers worth of spare parts in bins under each one.

People are forever experimenting on them with different nozzle sizes and arrangements, custom firmwares, wacky filament blends etc. We've made some wild, wild stuff!
Is it better to have your approval at 78 percent down from 88 percent a year ago, or to have it at 60 percent, up from 50 percent a year ago?
Whats the point of this article?

Tumblr is supposed to be monetized. You can't monetize porn content, so tumblr has 'no pron' policy now. Sorry, this is how the world works. Boo.

Meanwhile, any kind of porn is plentiful if you go to the different url. Enter any keyword and have porn catered to your interest, in a good quality, abundant. Seriously, this was unimaginable 15 years ago, and yet author claims that someone "killed the internet we love". Come on.

Maybe the right claim would be "For some unknown reason, VC does not fund unprofitable sites we love anymore".
My experience is that a manager who is sharp and knowledgeable will be able to perform the non-technical tasks with confidence and ease, while the non-technical manager will be consumed with politics and divide-and-conquering his own team and its perceived adversaries.
Being "wrong" can be no big deal (48F vs 50) or hugely significant. My town will be getting precipitation this weekend. If the temps stay at 36, it will be a typical cold, wet weekend. If temps fall to 33 or lower, my town will be shutting down for a day or two since we don"t have snowplows.

Huh? Homosexuality was illegal in many parts of The West until very recently. I wouldn’t be surprised if it still is some places.

And is it true that homosexuality is banned throughout the east?

What’s the word for when you are ignorant of something your whole life and then you get enlightened and then immediately feel entitled to point out how much better you are than everyone else who is still ignorant? I feel like that’s what you’re doing here.

(To be clear, I have no problem with your point about homosexuality laws. I’m just objecting to your notion of what’s eastern and western. Seems like a lot of people think western=quintessential liberalism, eastern=Saudi Arabia, which is just xenophobic nonsense)
> I don't think that there is need for reverse thrust in such a scenario.

How do we slow down planes that still need to come down despite a stuck landing gear, then?

Disclosure: I work on Google Cloud.

I’ve always enjoyed this quote, but my problem with [the description of] this outage is the third-party dependency.

Packets can’t get from your cloud provider to downstream users of CenturyLink? That’s fair.

Your cloud provider can’t send packets to/from CenturyLink, so they nuke your database? I literally don’t understand.

Is the service described actually a third-party service that’s been white boxed? (I mean this in the most honest way possible. I do not understand the details, and I found the article surprising).

You might want to clean up that messy prototype code. It's annoying to have to scroll horizontally and the nesting level is just insane.
I was a mac user for 13 years - last year I switched away to Thinkpads. I really hope that the ones making decisions for the new mac mini are in charge of the next macbooks - maybe they become tenable again at some point. After all this, they still haven’t learned with the Air.
Louis Rossmann spends countless hours talking about what he perceives as "design flaws" with Apple products but never offers anything resembling context. He is looking with a microscope—both literally and metaphorically—at tiny details on a circuit board which don't seem to be a problem for >99% of Apple's customers.

Are these points of failure really any more common on Apple devices than their competitors? Are other major manufacturers' products substantively better in any of these regards? Has he ever spoken to anyone who actually designs laptop circuit boards?

One of the interesting things I've noticed is that Apple product owners have a near-universal expectation of long life and durability, whereas owners of PC laptops are more likely to treat them as unfixable and/or disposable. I think this unspoken bias is playing deeply into the Rossmann perspective.

Now I don't doubt that a lot of what Louis says is technically correct, and if everyone in the independent repair industry was as competent as Louis is in 2019, he would probably have a point. But they're not, so he doesn't. Given the shoddy low standards that dominate the independent Apple device repair industry, it's unsurprising that Apple doesn't do anything to help them.
