Welcome | Senior Frontend Engineer | SF | Full-Time | ONSITE (when safe) or REMOTE

Welcome is a small passionate team, creating a next-generation smart city companion for around the corner or around the world. Welcome is recently venture backed by the best in the industry. Our platform uses friend and expert recommendations and machine learning to always have an answer to the question: "Where should I go now?"

We're looking for a design-savvy engineer who can help develop and eventually own our public and internal web experiences. This will include a fairly advanced custom CMS, SPAs, PWAs, static marketing pages, dynamic marketing destinations and lots of internal tools and prototypes to help the team figure out what works with our data and techniques.

Apply Here, and please mention that you found this on HN: https://apply.workable.com/welcome-jobs/j/FCF4DF39A5/

Feel free to reach out to me personally with questions. My email address is in my profile.
Thank you for writing this (for all to see). I suggest this for "funky" files, for files of unknown/uncertain origin. Not every company has a strong IT/Sec team, with dedicated process and awareness training so that staff can forward funky emails to someone. Also, many companies rely on little or no spam filtering (if Gmail catches it, well done.. if not.. grace for impact!)
Thanks for the feedback :)

That's on me. I'll get it fixed.
Demandstar.com | CTO | Full Time | Greater Seattle Area, Remote

http://www.demandstar.com is an e-Procurement marketplace for governments and businesses. Governments post their RFPs on our system and we alert a network of suppliers. Suppliers love us because we aggregate hundreds of government buyers on one site (otherwise they'd have to check all those city, county, municipal, school, and utility sites individually... every day), which means more opportunities for work. Governments love us because we increase the number of suppliers bidding on their work, which means lower prices and taxpayer savings.

Our 7 person team has experience as state and federal employees doing procurement, experience doing sales in the government and small business space, and experience building and growing startups.

We already have 500+ governments and tens of thousands of paying suppliers using the platform. We have a healthy amount of revenue, and just raised a $2M round from Version One, Forefront, and Advance Venture Partners to fuel product growth.

We have product/market fit. We have revenue. We have money. We just need you.

We're looking for a product-centric CTO to take the reigns of our existing product and grow the domestic engineering team. You'll build a product-focused engineering team and lead technical strategy to connect both sides of the massive business-to-government market. This entrepreneurial role is extremely hands-on – you’ll write code while you define the culture, engineering practices, architecture, and roadmap for the organization.

You likely have several of the following:
* 8+ years relevant work and leadership experience
* Direct experience in marketplaces or network creation, and/or strong background in eCommerce
* Experience developing full web stack applications using the Microsoft stack
* Expert in Web API 2.0, REST APIs, MVC framework, .Net core
* Solid client-side JS frameworks mastery, ReactJS specifically
* Strong network for recruiting and peer support
* Appreciation for the positive role local governments play in people’s lives

Email me zcohn@demandstar.com and lets talk (I'm the Head of Product).
Completely unfair summary of a complex article.

You are misled if you think that's what the article is about.
Interesting company. How does one get an invite?
OmniFocus for iPad has improved a lot to the point I don't feel I'm missing too many features from the Mac version (though there are still some awkward parts in the UI, e.g. moving/creating folders and projects) and even has support for Omni Automation Plugins now, in addition to Shortcuts support.

Web version sadly has no persistent offline storage as you said. It's also veeerrrrryyy slow since every click requires a roundtrip to a server that made slightly acceptable thanks to WebSockets (I don't live in the U.S. where their servers seems to be located). I'm connected most of the time so offline storage is not that much of a concern for me. I wish Omni Group put more effort into it though, given they charge $50 a year on top of a standalone app, which is way more expensive than Todoist. :(

"why are YOU too dumb to understand this?" is not a quote and was not meant to be; it's a paraphrase/interpretation of what she wrote. I think this is fairly obvious in the context of my comment.
Indeed, this thing will likely eat tires if used on-road a lot. Without a differential, it'll also be harder to steer and will want to "push" through the turns. You can see this at 2:31:

The turning radius isn't that great, and the lack of a differential helps explain why. Definitely an interesting design choice.

I suspect several of the airlines are now itching to do layoffs. It's hard to sustain the same number of employees when the traveler numbers are down so badly. They are all losing money despite the bailout.
Given that Google takes MusicBrainz's data and uses it to display infoboxes but doesn't usually list MB itself, I think the motivation for indexing Pinterest is indeed ad revenue.

If you generate money for them, they index you, even if the content is bad, and vice versa.
Yea, I'll try to find a citation. I recall it from a class I took on Bioethics two years ago with Robin Scheffler.
And even the 50$ - that's about the price of getting wasted once a month which most students can afford. The key difference between CS and CC is that you don't have to up-front hundreds/thousands of dollars.
Yea... “maybe”.

FWIW, I think hydrogen fuel cell is the renewable that makes sense for aviation. Electric’s problem is weight. Totally off topic though.
Order of urgency / importance of message / signal to noise ratio:

That's nice but just a start. JS type coercion is only mentioned in passing for example.
I love that op shared their interview process though, I hope this becomes a new normal instead of it being a mystery.

Ely wouldn't either. The point is that 1A protects the political process, not a natural right we have to express ourselves; thus the distinction between government and social suppression of speech.
The UK wouldn't have to win a stand-up fight against the PLA. Just taking China to the brink would be sufficient.

Is the CCP willing to jeopardise its position and future in the World for the sake of a few humid islands with no natural resources or strategic advantages?

And even more mind-focusing is the fact that the UK had the nuclear option on the table against Argentina in 1982.
To be honest I think that the Chinese government would not care or actually be quite OK with it.

Indeed, who would leave HK? Arguably the anti-CCP, the "troublemakers". So that'd mean less 'trouble' in HK and there is a large supply of mainlanders happy to move to HK.

Obviously the Chinese government will officially be outraged but privately they may think good riddance.

I think he's talking about systems where the child actually lives in the same facility as the parent.

Such programs exist, in a limited way: https://www.npr.org/2018/12/06/663516573/programs-help-incar...
Thanks for clarifying. I think I will give it a read, even if just to see what your fresh perspective looks like. The personal branding stuff sounds very interesting and useful also.

EDIT: I would like to note that the IMHO most mentally and technically difficult part of a developer career is maintaining the same mission-critical legacy codebase for years at a time. That's not something I really expect to get a lot of insight around from this book and your personal experience, but I'm also not sure what exactly advice around that problem would look like (probably just the tried-and-true military motto of "embrace the suck"). Either way, just my 2 cents about coding careers.
Autotools projects tend to have recursive makefiles. Look up "recursive make considered harmful" for a good explanation of why that's bad. Edit:
https://pic.blog.plover.com/prog/lib/auug97.pdf

Then, the actual benefit that autotools provides, which is portability for C code running on mostly Unix-like systems, is a pretty dead topic today. I am not talking about all the C bashing people do in a place like HN, what I mean here is that C99 and POSIX compliance is pretty universal now in a way it wasn't 20 years ago. And there are much fewer Unix-like systems in common use. (Linux has taken over most.) Nobody has to run a check for whether it's safe to include string.h or the return type of getpid() anymore.
Indeed, spies are just a single tool and have a very specific use cases — big-data, analytics and data science is where the big nation states are at nowadays.

We don't know much about China's systems here, but looking at XKeyscore [0] (NSA, via Snowden leaks) is likely to be somewhat insightful re function and capabilities.

Downloaded their beta. Pretty cool and unique way of learning. Looking forward to more lessons.
I tried that `jj` or `jk` thing for a while and it just did not click with me at all.

I tried it because I was having a bunch of wrist pain. The actual solution to my wrist pain was easy: Don't code on a laptop keyboard. The ergonomics are terrible.

Michael Jordan does not benefit from basketball.
Email for interacting with clients (customers) has kind of replaced the phone as the most important channel for businesses.
The caveat is that this only works for economies that are growing, have a small natural population growth and hence actually need more people quite desperately.

Trying to apply this same logic to a country that's stagnant economically or that already has a fast growing population would be silly.
that's fine, then it's time to slap most of big tech with massive anti-trust cases
Nova – A Crowd-Flyable Space Mission
While you can make this as complex as you want, even something as statistical abhorrent as simply measuring 1 run on a build server gives you a lot of bang for your buck.

The main idea is to have some way to keep the pulse and notice the worst regressions.
The song "Star Star" by the Rolling Stones (released in 73) was originally titled "Starfucker" and the words are used throughout the chorus.
This is one approach and way that people feel about work and job hunting but (anecdotally) many others, including myself, do care about things like culture fit and company vision.

Beyond a threshold salary level, these intangible things matter much more than money since I am going to be spending every single day working on these things and with these people. I want to work with skilled technicians but I also want to be in alignment with my team.

I understand the "not changing the world" mindset but motivation is still a hugely important consideration when hiring and when choosing where to work. Every job has bad days/weeks/months and it takes motivation, beyond the paycheck, to hold myself and my team together through those moments.

Similar to your million dollar situation: If you paid high performing knowledge workers a million dollars a month to do soul-crushing stressful grind work in a bad environment, those people are still going to quit after a short period of time.
Clerk is hiring a senior front-end engineer for our authentication-as-a-service developer tools. Help us build the Stripe Checkout of Sign In, Sign Up, and Profile Management.

You will be responsible for building a front end architecture that is easily extensible and customizable by our customers. You will help us define everything from the methods in our client-side SDK, to the API endpoints our SDK calls, to whether we embed or redirect, to the strategy developers will use to add custom CSS.

We're looking for an engineer who will approach our challenge from first principles to find the best possible solution. The questions you will encounter range from the more typical: will Rollup or Webpack result in meaningfully smaller downloads? To the more esoteric: can we shave off 50ms to first paint by leveraging JSONP?

If this sounds exciting we'd love to talk! We're venture funded and looking to launch our beta product soon. Email colin@clerk.dev for more information.

I am a so-called t-shaped, generalist, servant-type engineering leader, mentor, facilitator with over 20 years of experience.

My last role at Paystack (YC'W16 backed by Stripe, VISA, Tencent) reorganizing and tripling the engineering team reporting to the CEO and working together with the CTO, gave the opportunity to navigate some very unique challenges and helped me decide what I want to pursue next.

I'm looking for a hands-on, senior engineering leadership role that would be set up to facilitate communication across often misaligned executive, product and engineering teams, helping emerge common strategy and support autonomous execution.

I'd especially prefer working in an environment where cultural common denominator is critical thinking that is used to pragmatically form or let go of opinions on business, product and technology alike.

Titles don't matter. You can call me whatever you like. I'm golden with plain Serkan and a vanilla engineering title accompanied by a warm smile :)

- Hi, I’m Bryan. I’m an early career software developer looking for a full time position.

- The large majority of my work is currently in Python, Pelican plugins, machine learning scripts and notebooks.

- As a naturally curious person, I’ve been learning more C/C++ with embedded systems to start contributing on the Linux kernel.

- I also recently found writing to be a fun challenge, and began maintaining a blog (mostly book reviews as of now).

The developers can't choose to not charge or to cancel a subscription. The user must cancel. The devs cannot refund a subscription that a user forgot to cancel.
Putting the glorious Archive "at risk" is equivalent to charging the enemy all together behind our king. Sure, a risky move, but undoubtedly very encouraging. The battle is not only legal, but mostly social and PR. A new entity, independent from the Archive, would receive few popular support, and if the book parasites killed it nobody would be really bothered. Yet, if they try to kill the Archive, that's a huge mess on their part that nobody can forget nor forgive.
