SEEKING WORK | Denver, CO | Remote OK

I recently started a small engineering design and consulting firm with my business partner. My background is in hardware(printed circuit board) and software engineering for embedded systems as well as test and systems engineering. My business partner is a mechanical engineer specializing in additive manufacturing and systems analysis.

I've designed boards for SoCs(FPGAs) as well as microcontrollers and develop low-level (no OS) software for the hardware I've designed.

We're only a couple of months old and we're building our network of customers.

Check out our website for more information and please get in touch with us if you have any questions (or feedback!)

I know we're supposed to be reading something on this page, but the scroll UX is so amazing I don't think anyone's going to be able to look past it.

There's no world in which you can: make your website scroll horizontally, disable horizontal scroll, make vertical scrolling actually scroll horizontally and have users be okay with it.
Just want to say thank you to the Django core team. I was privileged to use Django full time for over 6 years. Both the project and the community are a joy.

There's a few times I had to dive into Django's internals, and every time it was logical and straight forward to understand and modify.

Thanks guys!
When I was younger I wanted to visit China. Currently I have no plans to ever do so, China is a scary country.
This is funny, I’m sure future criminals could find easy way to workaround it like buying identity from someone poor
In fact WPF original team was composed by ex-IE developers, if I am not mistaken.

Imagine | Software Engineer, Core Systems and Applications | Full-Time | ONSITE | San Francisco, CA | https://www.gotimagine.com

Imagine | Software Engineer, Frontend | Full-Time | ONSITE | San Francisco, CA | https://www.gotimagine.com

Engineering at Imagine is currently a small team. As one of the first 5 employees, you will have the chance to shape culture, norms, and technical decisions. Above all, we are looking for engineers who are interested in building a company, comfortable contributing to architectural implementation, and able to work in a fast-paced and collaborative environment.

If you are interested, and the description below resonates with you, please email us at:

careers [at] gotimagine [dot] com

Who Are We?
Founded in September 2019, Imagine is building next generation payment infrastructure in the US to eliminate reliance on existing networks and banks that encumber merchants with excessive acceptance fees. Our tools enable merchants to target its most trusted, loyal customers with an ultra low cost payment rail at the same time as allowing each merchant to tailor bespoke proprietary marketing programs to lower churn. Imagine is a merchant centric payment network where all merchants on the network benefit from the network effects of others without the need to pay for third party loyalty programs or cash back schemes that are prevalent with existing card programs.

What is the Position?
We are focused on hiring engineers who have the experience to execute quickly and with foresight. This often means you have learned from implementing large scale projects, and you understand the successes to repeat and the various failures to plan against. We want people who have practical experience, and who can clearly articulate and implement a complex system from scratch.

If you join, you will:

* Design a funds flow which is robust to failure, secure, and creative without restraint from the current card network rules.
* Have deep involvement in day-to-day technical and operational decisions which will impact the future of the company for years to come.
* Be heavily involved in recruiting and building a team of teammates you’ll be working closely with.

You should reach out if you feel you have:

* Good API design sense and understands what makes an API a pleasure to work with instead of "just okay"
* Experience with highly-available, low-latency applications performing under heavy load
* The ability to thrive and grow with a high level of autonomy and responsibility
* A love for getting deep into technical details and the experience needed to avoid getting bogged down in those details
* Designed non-trivial applications and/or distributed systems, and can articulate common pitfalls, patterns, and tradeoffs required during varying levels of an application's lifecycle
* Understanding of networking concepts and can fluently talk through a networking stack
* Knowledge of standard security practices, protocols, and principles
Haha finally figured that out by accident. Weird.
I don't think anyone seriously doubts the intended, arguable unethical, use of IM-RAT. The question is whether authoring and or selling these tools is or should be illegal. I'd argue that would set a dangerous precedent allowing governments to go after any security researchers whenever they feel it convenient to do so.
This is the funniest thing I've seen all day. What a hoot.

Look at the job req for "hardware engineer": they have no idea how to solicit EEs or what they are even looking for on the _most_ important roles for even doing something in this space (and none of the personalities have skills or credibility in). That they duped a VC into funding this is side-splitting hilarious and a sign of impending correction in tech.
No, I'm quoting directly from several hundred if not thousands of years of Jewish teachings which make up over half the bible. Christ mentioned very little on political structures, he certainly didn't vouch for democracy.

I note that the author of the article appears to thing a raspberry pi would work just fine if it booted Windows. I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.
I work for one of those HPC / financial firms that I alluded to above. The "no well funded client trap" is also real :)
Blatant editorialization.
Ask HN: Delaware LLC, Residing in New York?
I have a solo web project which has started generating some income. I'd like to form an LLC at this point, as I plan on continuing to bootstrap and grow it. I'm in the process of relocating to NYC, so I'm not fully aware of the tax implications. Will I have to register the business as a foreign / out of state business in NY as well?

I'm usually working from cafe's/home/co-working spaces on this, and sell no physical products.

Any guidance / insight is appreciated!
The Safeway at 4th and King was basically a free market for crackheads. I lived nearby for five years and I would see shoplifting every time that I entered the store. I'm not even exaggerating.
It's the same reason that people write slide decks instead of documents. Because it works.

Small chunks of information that piece together into a larger whole along a narrative timeline is the go-to document method of pretty much all of tech.
A product owner that asked that the content of our poker site be impossible to copy, incase someone should try to copy it.

This isn't bullshit, so much as naivete. And it isn't even that naive, really. Most major news site (the ones that have paywalls at least) do invest a significant amount of resources in making it difficult to (wholesale) pilfer their content -- even though they know it won't be "impossible". Any more than it one could, say, design a security system for a store or a warehouse that would be "impossible" to break into.
You can do declarative UI with Forms as well, it just takes a bit more of code than WPF to set up the data binding contexts and layouts.
People really talk about careers after three years in a field?
The lesson is that there's no guaranteed ROI for either games development or pure STEM research, so people are justifiably stingy with money and play hardball with contracts.

If you don't believe me, the Kickstarter craze a few years ago exposed all of this to the consumer. Many games were hyped well and got huge funding but were released to mediocre-to-bad reviews and much backer regret, to say nothing of the ones which fell apart completely during development and were never successfully released.
The point still stands that most people buying these machines are generally not running them at 100% CPU usage for extended periods of time; their usage is much more bursty, with short periods at full power separated by longer periods of idling or low power. This gives the CPU plenty of time to cool down in between bursts.

If OEMs optimize for that use case, I suspect that a more efficient CPU will simply mean that they cut even more corners on the cooling, not that the thermals will actually be significantly better.
Technically, all of the customers like yourself are paying for it.
Is this "computer company" a hardware company? If so that garage is astonishingly spartan for a workspace I presume prototyping is supposed to happen at.
Thanks for the info. I'll probably start fiddling with Django again, it has sure been a while for me.

Also, thank you and all the contributors for such amazing resource.
Except SF is soft on crime ... we have the lowest arrest and conviction rate in all of California.
I’m the exact opposite. My general perspective on life is to be able to do what I want, when I want to do it and remote work with a flexible schedule enables me to do that. I absolutely hate being told I have to sit at a desk and be somewhere between some prespecified hours.
Very much so, yes, and it's widely supported by the public. eg: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-42430298
Indie VC 2020 Applications now open
Indeed, this has always rubbed me the wrong way. As another commenter mentioned, there are supply & demand issues at play. However, even considering that, there is still a widely held attitude amongst companies that you should feel grateful that they are "letting you" work remote, and that it is a benefit, and that remote working is something that will be offered to you in lieu of the salary you are owed.

In fact, it should be the opposite. Companies are saving money by not having to spend money on office space and overhead. Why then should I not be getting a higher salary?
Also breaks back / forward gestures on Mac.
There is one post that's marginally helpful: https://sysmgr.org/blog/2019/12/02/a-new-machine/

My guess is they want to sell servers with a first class control plane. Something much less clunky than what's currently possible to cobble together with IPMI, PXE, Intel ME, grub, etc. Similar to what AWS, GCP, etc, use internally. And maybe expanding into routers based on these servers, also with a control plane, etc.

I'm extrapolating a lot out of little though. They are very vague.
I read the thread you linked. I don't see an example there of him treating people poorly or behaving "toxically".

I do see people who seem to have an ax to grind with the guy. Someone asks, without being too snarky, "what's the point of Joyent?" bcantrill responds in a reasonable manner in several places in the thread. Several posters decide the thread should be "what's the point of bcantrill?" and dredge up an old usenet post, engage in ad hominems, and are generally surly. His responses come across as eminently reasonable to me.

The original poster even apologizes to bcantrill for triggering a dogpile. What is he meant to have done wrong there?
I mean, there's probably more than enough intent here for prosecution. There's a fairly significant difference in selling a RAT that does remote administration, and selling a RAT that includes bulletpoint features to evade antivirus detection, persist through removals, and other features explicitly against the wishes of the device owner while the author actively and exclusively only advertises on script-kiddie forums and provides advice and encouragement of malicious infections.

I don't think I've ever seen people gone after for the former, even when it's been abused by miscreants.

At least in the US, people already "go after" security researchers all the time (at least the companies not smart enough to realise just how much a well meaning email can save them).
They would be called draconian by Republicans and the NRA, look how they react to any increase in gun laws today. Of course blue states get closer to the Swiss laws but IIRC no state has any kind of background check on ammunition [0] or universal gun registries both of which are part of the Swiss system.

[0] It would be practically impossible to enforce because states can't put up barriers from things coming into their state from other states.
> people hate being watched

in the old days we'd have God watching over our conscience.

now we have cctv.
>It may or may not be relevant to today's Kape, but we should at least be honest about what these guys were doing in the past.

Yep, "consider the source." It's weird how people will strongly imply that reputation doesn't (or shouldn't) be a factor when the internet is involved, that even criminals should be able to fail upward.
Not sure how potentially dying is a good position to be in
Yep. That's exactly the kind of rationalization I'm talking about. You don't know any of that for sure for each machine camera and certainly don't know what a random person will do with a taken video.
You're not the first person recently to express such. Have you considered "the other China"; Taiwan? It has much of what you might have hoped to find in PRC (depending on what you were hoping to find there), and perhaps lacks some of what you might not like.
Are those residents going to build that 6-unit themselves?
What would you call the police officer that came with a gun?

By giving up private firearm ownership you are putting the safety of yourself and your loved ones in the hands of the government. This article is an example of why it is dangerous to do that.
Does this affect foreigners? If I have a AT&T plan, it should work out-of-box in China via roaming? Hope that is the case...
One of my favourite things with Django has been their mature approach to changes. Want to be guaranteed a stable upgrade? Step 1: Fix deprecation notices. Step 2: Upgrade. (If you're upgrading over a few releases, return to step 1). Coming from other frameworks it's a delight :) At least that's been my experience with smaller projects. I'm curious, does that line up with your experience with Zulip, too?
If nothing else, many startups that have raised seed and A rounds don't have the proper insurance. It's typically because many founders are uninitiated and don't see the value and aren't required to get it.

I couldn't imagine anything more important, from a protect my investment POV, than making sure a bunch of no significant corp experience founders / execs have the proper E&O coverage (among other coverage).
Many games are also a procedural method of UI rendering. Think about puzzle games, or even tetris. From a high level they're just complicated buttons. Of course it wouldn't be a good fit for anything that is highly interactive or 3d.
> With the fractional quantum hall effect, it should be clear at the latest, that neither the common electron nor the BCS superconductivity model can be true.

I don’t think you’re interpreting the outcome of the FQHE correctly.

> I follow Stoyan Sargs "Basic Structures of Matter - Supergravitation Unified Theory" model, which has a very different understand of SC and solves most problems in physics.

I don’t mean to be rude here, but I went and looked up this book and found that it was full of crackpot nonsense, and nearly all the reviews on the amazon page seemed to be planted fake reviews. So I’m going to be as clear as I can here in case anyone not in the field gets curious about this POV:

This is nonsense.

How risk-averse should talented young people be about their careers?
Chicago is a pretty civilized place.
This is so correct!

I wish we could sticky this post at the top of every housing discussion.

Progress means things become more affordable and cheaper. For instance the price of lighting up a room has come down my many orders of magnitude. It used to cost a significant portion of one's earning to buy a candle and light up a room for an hour, now it costs mere pennies. I hope some day humanity can have that kind of progress in housing as well.

The way to get there is to start opening up innovation. Start letting builders build it the way they want, and allow startups to create new ways to make buildings. We can deregulate certain parts of the towns/cities or start new ones. We need to open things up and reduce barriers to entry. That's why there was an explosion of innovation on the internet: no barriers to entry and no regulations to get in the way. Let's do the same for housing and see what progress we can make.
Uh, more notable incorrect persons have noted this argument. You’re using what’s called a Malthusian argument.

Anyhow, let’s say everything you say is correct for today’s wants and needs. But if it is true that society changes and needs change etc, then your argument doesn’t hold for tomorrow.

Suppose for a moment there is only 10 years worth of X left, who is to say that one of these things doesn’t happen:

* X thing is no longer needed because Y thing is no longer in fashion

* X thing gets replaced by other comparable Z material

... and this goes on forever.

That’s the point.

I am hoping that the EU can devise a plan to fight China ever-increasing threats to democracy AND re-introduce manufacturing as a strong industry in all of the Union. It's obvious that individual European counties simply cannot withstand China on their own.
Indeed, numba, Pythran or cupy can be really useful. In the example of the article, it is 'simple' vectorized math. But in general any function can be added in Vaex. Those that go through numba or Pythran usually release the GIL and can get you an enormous speed boost.
Remains to be seen, imho. Of course I'm talking about casual games with light 2d sprites/images.
