We are SaaS app developers, specialized in enterprise data integrations for e-commerce and logistics but branching out a bit. Data integrations are our business, but we are truly a full-service dev shop and have a very nimble team, great developer-centric culture, with a high bar for engineering ability and creativity. We also own, develop and operate our own suite of enterprise SaaS products.

Sunrise Integration's sweet spot right now is developing Shopify applications & middleware layers for logistics companies and enterprise-focused SaaS startups. We have built solutions for DHL, Live Nation, Pitney Bowes and incubated many startups.

Looking for well rounded developers with a pragmatic mindset, strong database skills, quick ability to pick up new APIs and a positive attitude. We use every platform under the sun.. points if you've worked with ERP, CRM, WMS, EDI, security compliance, can write multiple languages like Node, PHP, C++, Python, Golang etc and/or know DevOps, systems, solutions architecture, microservices and designing APIs. Biggest skill needs right now are React, Laravel and MS SQL Server.

Also looking for technical project managers on-site and a business analyst to help draft tech requirements. Bonus points if you know e-commerce.

Our team is in Hollywood in Los Angeles. We are all on-site but opening up to remote workers within a 3 hour time difference of USA Pacific time.

Interested? Email me at ron@sunriseintegration.com
My local Safeway in a middle class area of the South Bay Area also has a significant shoplifting problem. It's often kids who come in after school and steal small items, as well as homeless adults. Unfortunately the management appears to have a policy of not prosecuting or even confronting shoplifters. I sort of understand why they don't want to do anything, but it's disappointing because tolerating lawlessness brings down the whole neighborhood.

WRT to Frazelle, are you referring to her contributions on the Docker team as "creating software used by millions"? If so, that seems disingenuous, or perhaps she was more of a core contributor than I realized? If not, what software are you referring to?
Wisconsin Wind Farm Decommissioned After Just 20 Years
For simply-vectorizable analysis, sure, but in my work I often have to apply a nontrivial transformation to the data en masse and I'd rather define a single function which defines the transformation on each row to trying to wrestle the problem into one of matrix multiplications and additions.

AWS Cryptography | Seattle, WA, USA | Full-time | ONSITE | https://github.com/aws/crypto-tools

Hi internet!

I manage the Core Libraries team within AWS Cryptography. We develop open source encryption libraries that are used by major AWS services like S3, DynamoDB, etc, as well as external open source customers. We work within a larger Crypto Tools team that makes a whole bunch of neat software, and the group is run by a phenomenal leader (@jamieelisea) who truly cares about the people who work for her.

The team is currently working on the AWS Encryption SDK, which is a client-side encryption library designed to make it easy for you to encrypt and decrypt data using industry standards and best practices.

We're using cutting edge tools like formal verification to raise the security bar, and we get to work in many different languages. (C, C++, Go, Java, Javascript, Python, Rust... you get the idea. We touch a lot of code.)

I'm looking to hire a new software development manager. This person should care about humans, believe in crafting high quality software (think slow and awesome, not move fast and break things -- that doesn't go well in cryptography), and be excited to learn about cryptography. Domain expertise in security and cryptography is a plus, but not required. I'd like to see candidates with at least 3 years of experience with direct people management, but if you're really excited about this role and you're a little shy of that please reach out anyway -- I'd love to talk.

Diversity and inclusion is incredibly important to us. Our engineering team has a nearly even split between men vs. women and non-binary people, and we work very hard to be welcoming and kind to everyone. If you think diversity isn't important then we aren't a good fit.

Carmack had 5 or 6 game engines under his belt before any social media even existed.
Ah whoops! I meant "O.G. systems engineer" in general, independent of his time at Sun, not O.G. in terms of Sun's history! I don't know much about his history other than what I've gleaned from watching a few of his talks.
The self-importance of pretty much everything in this interview is literally unbearable.

I will give you the precis: I think X is important, why doesn't everyone think X is important (usually about five sentences of escalating grandeur about the importance of X), because I think X is important and "no-one is talking about X" you know that I am a real genius...on and on.

Cowen is also an utter ignoramus. He seems to confuse being an economist with having knowledge about literally everything (the mistakes Collison makes can be forgiven, there is no reason why an economist shouldn't realise they aren't an expert on literally everything). Btw, afaik, he is the only economist who has actually tried political philosophy too (again, the ego on this guy)...he made the same kind of trite insights and tried to pass them off as signs of his genius there too.
I think there are lots of Western countries that have never had laws barring people from voting due to their race. E.g., there has never been any such law in the UK. Women in the UK also got the vote slightly earlier.
> The fact that Intel sells inferior product at higher price means that AMD has supply bottleneck

Except they don't? There's a reason Intel's flagship HEDT part, the i9-10980XE, is half the price of the part its replacing despite almost nothing changing about the chip itself. And at the same time AMD is raising the price of its HEDT parts.

And it's not just the HEDT parts, but Intel also cut the prices on a bunch of Xeon chips a month or two ago as well, as well as their consumer stack.
"You would naturally expect the value of a home to decrease by some amount each year."

If you deduct maintenance from your home value, it more-or-less does. I don't see why a maintained home "should" decrease in value, though. A lot of the value of a home is in the structure, which tends to wear much more gracefully than, say, a car's body.

No it wouldn’t. It’s not a money problem, it’s a tech problem. You can pour 50 billion into storage and it won’t make a dent in the base load.
Yes, I know that.

What I'm saying is that if an ML model can approximate quickly the solution, then there could be a simple theory expressed in terms of equations, approximating the full problem. I.e. if there is an efficiently computable procedure, then it's a sign that there might be a good simple approximating theory.

It's a nice bonus if something happens to have it. My AM4 motherboard has an RGB LED header, and the Ryzen 1700's included cooler has an LED ring on it, so it gently illuminates my PC build with my favourite colour.
> Why do companies need outside investment?

They don't always need it. Microsoft, for instance, didn't need much in the way of investment to start and grow.

But some companies take more investment. Say it's the 1800s, and you want to build a railroad. You have to acquire a bunch of land, buy and lay rails, and buy engines and railroad cars - all before your first dollar of revenue. Where are you going to get that kind of money? You sell stock, so that anybody who has a few dollars can buy a small piece of the railroad. And why should they do so? Because they're going to get paid back, out of the profits the railroad earns (if it actually makes money).

If those people don't have the chance of getting paid back from the profits, most of them won't buy stock. If they don't buy stock, then we wind up not having any railroads. That wouldn't have been good for the economy in the 1800s.

Now, you could argue that investors could get paid back some of the profits for a limited amount, and then no further, and they would still invest. That's true, and it's the bond market rather than the stock market. But big new capital-intensive businesses typically financed themselves by stocks rather than bonds. There may be cultural reasons for that, but I think there are also solid financial reasons. Many new businesses fail. If I'm going to invest money, and there's a realistic chance that I'm going to lose all of my investment, then I need a reward that's enough to motivate me to take the risk. Bonds typically don't yield enough to compensate for that kind of risk - not even junk bonds.
Do you propose that the thief is rich or does not benefit from the theft?

The poor do little to directly increase revenues, so the cold financial evaluations that states are too good at will reveal a net benefit to the state.

I did not make an claim that "...everything is about spending more to fed[sic} those already at the bottom..." You are presenting a straw man.

The discussion about the entire U.S., which is an incredibly diverse region inclusive of almost every demographic except those found in the very poorest nations on the planet is not useful in a discussion on a specific region within the U.S., and worse is to compare it with somewhere else in the world and make no attempt to explain why the comparison is valid.
Speaking of that, does anyone here have a ballpark number for what it would cost and what the minimum order quantity would be like, to get one of the major Taiwanese OEM companies to manufacture an initial run of a custom server product? My guess is that the capital requirement would be in the 10s of millions of dollars.

The Sinister Scientist Behind the CIA’s Mind-Control Mayhem
Gentrification is perfectly possible without new construction. Boston found apparently that luxury condos had a containing effect on gentrification overall - they reduced demand for other areas. Also wouldn't it be authentic inflation of value?

The tax bill objection also strikes me as odd given that it is synonymous with a windfall to owners - the renters it makes perfect sense for.
(Hehe thanks, fixed.)
> But it got canceled, and for the life of me I can't understand why anyone thinks its better to truck in heavy fuel oil for generators vs having a small reactor buried in the ground for 30 years.

I don't understand it either. My best guess is that nuclear is scary, and most "green energy" advocates would prefer to believe that panacea eco-friendly alternatives exist.

I live in northern Canada. I've witnessed a plenty of FUD surrounding nuclear, and the concomitant excessive unrealistic optimism around wind and solar. Every year the power outages become a little more frequent, and every other year brings some new story of power projects cancelled due to "environmental concerns" and "lack of consultation".

So many people seem convinced that the lack of wind and solar projects is strictly due to government bungling or never-specified interference from oil-industry incumbents. Green gets used as a kind of security blanket. You can't escape the fact that you have a carbon footprint running a car and heating your home and workplace through six months of winter. Many green energy advocates are less than serious, and are just looking to feel better. They're content to believe that someone, somewhere, is doing something. Preferably without having to think too hard or entertain compromise positions.

The video on those systems usually is turned over every month. The video isn’t accessed unless there was an event.

These systems aren’t integrated into larger systems to help track and ID people.

That said, some of this could change if many shops go to nest or ring solutions... but most shop owners will not keep video footage indefinitely in the cloud as it’d be cost prohibitive.

I have been working remotely for the past 4 years and every day has been routine. Walk into my my home office at 8, work until 12, take an hour lunch and work until 5. For the first couple of years I had issues with overworking myself not being sure of my productivity, but after setting hard limits to never stay in my office after 5 and to stop worrying about my productivity my stress levels normalized and nobody reported negatively on my productivity. It was all in my head.

My experience working remotely is almost the same as working in an office. My only added benefits are a lack of commute and job opportunities that aren't available to me in the small remote town I'm in. If it wasn't for remote work I wouldn't even be a software developer. This allows me to be a software developer and raise my kids in the same town as their grandparents. In fact living in the same town I was raised in may aid in the social isolation a lot of people feel. I could see working remotely in a town you have no/small amount of friends being very isolating.
