Repl.it (YC W18) | Frontend, mobile, backend, Support, Bizdev | SF or REMOTE | https://repl.it/jobs

Repl.it is the first massively open computing platform where anyone, even without even needing an account, can hop on and in seconds start executing code, build and host applications and websites, and collaborate with other people.

Providing a service like this is challenging from all a scaling, security, and billing perspectives. Also, supporting the number of languages we do (https://repl.it/languages) is a hard tooling problem -- we have to build generic protocols for executing, debugging, authoring code, running tests, handling files, etc. Finally, it's an incredibly challenging frontend/design problem to build a fast collaborative in-browser IDE that's both powerful and simple.

It's a great time to be joining us, we're still 9 full-time people, we reach millions of coders a month, and we're backed by YC and a16z.
On Android you have to specify a hostname for DNS (a bit ironic), which is 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com.

However, it does not seem 1dot1dot1dot3.cloudflare-dns.com works yet.
The protocol is one thing, the other nearly more important one is the bandwidth/encoding for each platform. On YouTube you may want to put out a high-res/high bitrate version and let YouTube handle the churning down to lower resolutions. On Twitch, unless you're a partner, you want to pick a low enough bitrate, otherwise your viewers will be hit with a high bitrate and some end up unable to watch the stream.

So lots of reencoding happening on the fly, which is why I know of some streamers using dedicated streaming computers, that take the OBS stream as input, but I don't know what software they use to distribute it.
It's more like a false start to the new year.

Most of those predictions were derived from users possessing second-hand crystal balls, especially those predicting acquisitions, IPOs and political matters. Nobody in that thread ever predicted that a widespread SARS-like virus would destroy and cause mass upset unless they had looked into the news in around November 2019.

Mind you, I actually did predict a crash this year and the importance of healthcare in 2020. However, I wasn't correct on the cause of the crash though but it seems my predications looks as if they are the most accurate so far:

>By 'influencers' we mean creators who have loyal and engaged audiences on social media that they have grown through their own content. They are usually experts in a particular skill, like cookie decorating, vegan baking, or fitness and nutrition

I feel like "influencer" is too broad of a term for this. From what I know about influencers, a lot of them are just a pretty face that brands can slap their name onto.

Even if 100% of the fuel used in the US were renewables, we'd still need oil. Petrochemicals are a foundation of modern industry.

I'm only interested in part-time permanent employment.

===

Hi, I'm Nuno, a Result-Oriented Front End Angular Engineer with a strong technical skill-set, attention to detail, and 18 years of experience. I have a passion for translating beautiful designs into functional user interfaces and building great web applications.

I actively seek out new technologies and stay up-to-date on industry trends and advancements. Continued education has allowed me to stay ahead of the curve and deliver exceptional work to each employer I’ve worked for.

I've successfully delivered projects like a CSS UI library used by 17,000 employees, a mobile app that has 120,000+ users, and a web app serving over 100 million images. I've done frontend work for Adobe, Webflow, Bayer, among other companies.

I'm originally from Portugal but I've been working remotely for the last 7 years for companies worldwide. I can be flexible in order to have overlapping working hours with a distributed team.
I think you misunderstood my point. You mentioned that "SQL isn't type-safe", which is NOT true. Any decent RDB engine allows to perform typechecking and validation of your query without executing it. This means that SQL is typesafe at compile time.
I just posted a bounty for making this a build in feature. Lots of work happening on the RFC and some working prototypes already: https://twitter.com/tobi/status/1242641154576965634
You're taking it to the extreme and ignoring the whole point I made. As has been said by the president, you can't have the cure worse than the disease. I want to see people argue that point. I get the whole flattening of the curve.
Same reason systemd exists, the previous solutions were old and clunky and some people got fed up and decided to update. Plus some good old NIH. People who were dealing just fine with previous solutions then start complaining about breaking things for the sake of breaking things and not being able to do things the way they were used to.

In the specific case of Xorg I find the situation strange because I'd gladly have made the switch 15 years ago back when messing with Xorg.conf was a common occurrence for me and it kept getting in the way (although a big portion of the blame was with the proprietary drivers, especially AMD's). Xorg was sometimes a bit of a pig too resource-wise, but that's when I was running a PC with 256MB of RAM. I remember being fairly optimistic when I first heard about Wayland and Mir, the prospect of ditching X11 was enticing.

But now? I haven't really had to wrestle with X in a long time. It just works for me. I'm definitely not looking forward to reworking my entire workflow for minor benefits although I suppose I'll have to one day. I also use X forwarding pretty extensively, but I'm probably a small minority these days.
What the hell are you talking about? The US is still at ~400 deaths per day and we're just under 4000 total currently.
No, it's not. Other sources of data show a massive drop in population in China correlating to the disease. There is a massive amount of evidence that China grossly under-reported case counts and deaths. I know people love to shill for China, but remember they jailed the doctor who first identified the new disease (who is now dead) and ejected all American reporters from the country after they started reporting about the massive amount of deaths being recorded as "unknown pneumonia" and not attributed to COVID-19 in Wuhan.
Why go through the effort of embedding it in JSON? Why not just send plain text back and forth? If the goal is minimal markup anyway...

That being said, it reminded me of HAML[1] - but that uses whitespace to determine nesting.

Why are you linking pain and ethics? If I chop down a tree in the wintertime, I can reflect upon whether it felt pain from my chainsaw as I drag its trunk toward my house, happy to fuel my family's fireplace with its remains. If it felt pain, does that make my action less ethical than if it did not?

Is it wrong to slaughter a cow because that cow will feel pain?

Sometimes, people label ideas for the purpose of sorting and better considering them. Other times, people label ideas for the purpose of compartmentalizing them and rejecting them without really reflecting on them at all. I don't know what you mean when you say I will be "treated as such" but it sounds like a way of setting aside what I actually said in order to tussle with a preconceived, crystallized notion of something someone else said or wrote.

There are ancient cultures that believed it was wrong to do violence against a rock. Do you believe they, too, read Heidigger?
The US has printed $6T (and more) to bail out the wealthy and investor class. $250B just for unemployment. If developing countries can print even $100B, IMF, World Bank, Moody's, S&P, and the local elite 'brainwashed' by the West want to cut down rates and what not. Yes, the US can take care of its poor, if politicians want to.

In developing countries, even spending $2B on coronavirus is a huge amount, and lead to other problems.

At least, I am happy that Gates is spending his dollars where he can get maximum results. It is like investors wanting to invest in distressed companies and junk bonds: big returns.

Onsite preferred, however remote is possible for the right engineering candidate (we already have one full remote engineer, and we're obviously all remote during this epidemic).

Send your resume to the email in profile, and make sure "whoishiring" is in the subject line.

General interview process is a phone screen, followed by an interview. Usually this is on-site, but we're doing Google Hangouts during the pandemic. Interview consists of a code review of a previous project, and conversations with members of our engineering, analytics, and product teams.
Google has been emphasizing click-baity results for years now. A moderately complex query for X will usually be filled with "Top 10 X" or ignores the context. Their results (on web search as well as YouTube) also seem to be biased against Apple and Microsoft which feels a bit scummy.
I think it is worth it. I did Leetcode in JS, then in Go, then in Python.

In Python you just need to focus on the actual algorithms than the actual minuteae details such as "let me create a function to copy this array". As long as you are aware of limitations such as Python int has no restriction like Java (int32, int64) etc, because some problems require you to look into that restrictions. Python string concatenation is also O(n^2) because there is no stringbuilder in Python. Just be aware of those and it should be fine.
Yeah, but for the purpose of algorithm interview it doesn't matter.
I really hope it's a joke. I mean it's not even flat. It's just the nesting is represented in a different less intuitive way.
I don't doubt that any of this is true. But commercial software is the best way to ensure that everyone involved in developing the software is reliably compensated for the software itself (and not for some related service). The freeloader problem in open-source software is very real. If we want to make sure developers get paid, it has to be mandatory, and unfortunately that includes license enforcement and other things that we find unpleasant about commercial software.
The two Audi smart key fobs together weighs too much for a pants or light jacket pocket, especially on that steel cable. A day or so after I removed the battery from one fob, I stopped at a Home Depot and used a bolt cutter to cut the cable and separate the fobs. I returned the keys to the rental agency on a large steel keyring. They didn't seem to mind.
If we can't do better here most everything else is meaningless. This is not a proper response to this crisis for the greatest country in the world.
I completely agree with you, but as I explained in the article I am limited by Apple's restrictions. I could get around this by side loading the app but then I make the barrier to entry higher.

If you can believe it originally this was a 2048 game (see the android version) but Apple suggested they would only approve the app if it was a hang man game and I named it 'Dead Man'. I wish I were joking. You have to understand that this functionality did not exist before today and my target audience previously were travellers, students, journalists, and privacy conscious people so I'm stuck trying to be relevant to multiple sets of audiences and a technical term that has 'dead' and 'man' in the name.
I would just expect that if they want it to be a major feature, to dogfood it themselves. If it would be a long process to migrate, then how could they expect anyone else to migrate with the state of the feature?

As a seasoned user, I love the UI. But also I'm a seasoned user.

It is a highly complicated software, but it's extremely flexible and surprisingly reliable for all things streaming and screen recording. A dead-simple mode might suffice but if you do anything with streaming or recording it's worth it to learn the deeper idiosyncrasies of OBS.

Supabase | Remote | Contributors | https://supabase.io

This is a bit unconventional. We realise that a lot of people need work at the moment and we want to help out in whatever small way we can. We don't have enough funds to employ anyone full time, but we're willing to pay contributors.

The main problem is that we don't really know how. So we're posing a question for the community here. How should we go about paying contributors?

We looked into gitcoin which seems like a possibility, but there could be better options which we don't know about. I'm also available directly if you want to message me: my email is in my profile or you can DM me on twitter: @supabase_io
“When you clone the vscode repo, your build is licensed under the MIT license”
Pasting a direct link to this as a number of HN users were saying VScode isn't open source in the 'true open source' article comments yesterday.

> Here's how it works. When you build from the vscode repository, you can configure the resulting tool by customizing the product.json file. This file controls things like the Gallery endpoints, “Send-a-Smile” endpoints, telemetry endpoints, logos, names, and more.

> When you clone and build from the vscode repo, none of these endpoints are configured in the default product.json. Therefore, you generate a "clean" build, without the Microsoft customizations, which is by default licensed under the MIT license (note, i made this commit to help make this more clear).

Again a reminder that 'true Open Source' is not a real thing. A license either meets the Open Source Definition https://opensource.org/osd or it does not.
Which OS are you using?
How is this different than openDNS?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't X-rays generally much more dangerous than an MRI? I would think that things like 7 tesla MRI technology would be the future of medical imaging, not X-rays, if only for the fact that X-rays are cancer-causing.
If you use the "preview to projector/monitor" with an extra monitor, then you can share that screen in the teleconference. I've done that with zoom while moving to online teaching these past weeks. I also got an idea from folks at the libre graphics track at SCaLE (southern California Linux expo) this year that you could use the preview feature but run the video out (eg HDMI) to a video capture device then back into your computer. I haven't tried that yet though.
If you think about it, that's exactly what they're doing. ;-)
Shutting down Italy wouldn't have prevented migrants, tourists and people on business trips from going back home.

Shutting down whole US would be more similar to shutting down whole EU because of Italy.

Even today "shut down" in EU differs a lot from country to country.

If it makes you feel any better I'll introduce you to the brain vat basilisk. It tortures anyone who doesn't contribute to it's creation for an eternity, and as the name suggests it's a brain in a vat. So now the only ethical thing to do is to work on creating it and telling everyone else about it.

They are going bonkers. I live in a small compound with gardens. I have a strict policy for not interacting with neighbors or not getting into their affairs (for lengthy reasons). A couple days ago I was about to call the police for what's possibly a bad fight/domestic violence for the neighbors next door. The neighbor above me had decided she wants to become a singer and now (as I am typing) is loudly signing. The one above that (second floor) is dropping kitchen object every other day and comes to collect/apologize for that.

This is fine.
You could argue that overall we’re seeing either no benefit or some benefit here, which is good

As expected, no blockbuster. There are concerns about patient recruitment and endpoints as well. We'll have to wait for antivirals.
this seems like a disturbing trend for the company that often championed the idea of a free and open internet. First they dropped the Daily Stormer as a customer, then 8chan, then chimpmania which was terminated with a change.org petition. Now we have a new service no one asked for that seeks to block lewd websites and "malware"?

Whats changed? did Matthew prince suddenly give up on free speech? or is it just another way to identify a target demographic.
The installation UX needs not be improved. It needs the holes Zoom abused fixed, so that it can no longer circumvent asking for the user's final consent. There is absolutely no reason Zoom should get away with intentionally abusing the platform they're given.
Better start getting used to it if you haven’t already.
