Stasis Labs | Multiple Positions | Remote (US based) | stasislabs.com (http://stasislabs.com/)
Who we are:

At Stasis, we are building a smart telemedicine platform that will accelerate the adoption of virtual care across hospitals, outpatient facilities, and the home. We aren’t your average telemedicine company. We’re on a mission to bridge the gap between doctors and their patients with our integrated FDA-cleared hardware and software solution which pairs tele-visits, remote patient monitoring, and AI-powered care plans. We transform high resolution vitals health data into actionable insights in real-time, empowering care teams to take timely virtual action, and prevent costly medical events. Globally, our solution has supported over 25,000 patients and is used by clinicians in over 50+ hospitals and outpatient centers. We’ve reached some exciting milestones in the recent months, but our work is far from over. We are building a diverse, mission driven team looking to leverage digital health technologies to reimagine how healthcare operates in the “new normal”.

Our Process:

Our interview process is straight forward, simple and generally quick. Phone screen -> Full technical interview -> Founder interview -> Decision. The phone screen lets us get to know each other a little and makes sure your skills and our needs are in line, as well that you are interested in our mission. Technical interview is not about you studying algorithms, it is about your actual experience and knowledge.

We are looking for a few engineers across our stack, specifically:

* Web/full stack engineer, Strong javascript, nodejs, Vue developer. Experience with websockets, redis, postgres and elasticsearch for anyone Full Stack

* Flutter engineer, will work across iOS and Android. Consumer app experience is ideal, as well as prior work with native modules and network/BLE.

* Android engineer. Experienced native Android engineer, network/socket and BLE experience is important. Threading, performance tuning and solid UI/UX design skills are part of this role.

What we are looking for across our positions is a minimum of 3 years of experience (preferably 5+) with solid communication skills, able to work remotely, have a solid grasp of data concepts, data visualization, be comfortable with API's both using and designing. If you have healthcare experience that is awesome but not required. We are a fully remote team and have been prior to this year, so experience working remote is ideal but not mandatory.

If any of these sound like something you are interested in, send us an email - software at stasislabs.com - with your resume and any details you want to highlight (include github or anything else that you feel is relevant).
There's more to farming than temperature. A lot of people think that, as things get warmer, we'll simply move agriculture further to the north. But it's also a matter of soil fertility - many of the most fertile areas that we have today will be adversely affected, and the new ones that'll open up due to warming (e.g. in Canada and in Siberia) have very poor soils.
But then you'd be stuck with an iPhone, not running Linux, unable to develop, run and share free software.

>Altering primary documents to make them more palatable to modern audiences is great for emotional engagement and attracting attention, but it risks creating false impressions of what history actually was like and how we know what it was like. "Hamilton" is a powerful piece of art--today--but it's not accurate history in an academic sense.

That's such an arrière-garde cause. It doesn't take too much time nor too much effort for any self-examining historian to understand that you can't create a "right impression" of history at the level of the general public. It will always be partial, truncated, falsified. Your cherry-picked period is misunderstood by the general public ? Too bad, that's part of the job. The best you can hope is making somebody interested enough that someday they'll have to reflex on historiography, philology and epistemology.
Yeah right, no should ever get an occupation because of their Master's degree
You're not going to convince anyone interested in a librem to get an iphone

I'm sure all that is already in the works, unfortunately.
Great quote from the press release:

"One defendant went as far as to brag the company incorporated in a jurisdiction outside the U.S. because bribing regulators in that jurisdiction cost just ‘a coconut.’ Thanks to the diligent work of our agents, analysts, and partners with the CFTC, they will soon learn the price of their alleged crimes will not be paid with tropical fruit, but rather could result in fines, restitution, and federal prison time."
Or just don't care if you are not on EU. I don't think there is clause for something like denial of entry or arrest on arrival.

Jumping from one prison to another, huh?
Advantages and Disadvantages of Python for Your Business
Python is widely praised. In 2019 its popularity increased by 4.2%. By stack overflow 2020 survey Python gets the 3rd most loved language after Rust and TypeScript. What makes this programming language successful and adored by engineers worldwide? In the article there are described Python key benefits to answer this question. In contrast to its pluses, we also outline some of disadvantages of using Python.
Sometimes people actually do learn from others. Not everyone needs to be told "Refrain from X" to be able to make the connection that X is a poor life choice.

We should be focusing on what factors set people apart in this way, rather than making blanket statements. That way we can learn from those who know how to learn.

How to fix the GDPR's frustration of global biomedical research
> It appears that while the switch is PD-compliant itself, they used a slightly non-standard connector that reduces tolerances and could, in some situations (most likely worn cables) cause some pins to electrically bridge and fry the port.

I'm pretty sure that's the dock that has a slightly nonstandard plug, not the switch itself.
A charge of 'hacking' is like a charge of 'breaking and entering'. They could have cracked a bank vault mission-impossible style, or maybe they threw a brick through the window.

For all you know, they could have 'hacked in' via the password on the post-it on their coworkers monitor.
The implication is that if one genetic group is getting poorer outcomes than another group, you can't automatically assume it's due to discrimination.

This is an important implication because it completely undercuts many extremely important power structures, which use accusations of discrimination as their legitimizing argument. Which is why the science on this is resisted so hard.

The idea of anyone being inferior to anyone else is completely something you brought into the conversation. Normal people understand that being short does not make one inferior, nor does skin color, nor personality, nor intelligence. It just changes statistical outcomes. Not moral value.

If you think genetic differences between people make some people morally inferior, I would say that's a moral problem with you. Because even on the individual level, if not the group level, genetic differences are obvious and undeniable. Do you really think someone who scores low on an IQ test is morally inferior to you or deserves to suffer? I don't. If not, what's the problem with accepting the science on genetic group difference, especially given that it helps us reduce suffering in the world?
Here's a comparison frame: https://www2.bfi.org.uk/sites/bfi.org.uk/files/styles/full/p...

One criticism:

"However, it’s a bizarre sight that greets us, and not just because we lose the top and bottom of each frame. The effect is initially impressive, but that soon wanes. Almost every man has a creamy, peachy skin tone, and the grass in each shot is a warm, yellowy green. The sky is blue. If it weren’t for the daubs of bright red blood, and the bomb craters, this would risk being a unnaturally prettified image of war, with remarkably consistent scenery. These are really incredible images – so homogenising them in this way does them a disservice. It’s not easy either to dispel the thought that all these colours (as well as many of the sounds) are simply guesswork: the colour of hair, blankets, signs and wildflowers having been plucked out of the air."

The original article was a 13 year conviction, so would have shown up.
You replace my word, "anti-social" with your word, "asocial" which doesn't mean the same thing. Anti-social behavior is a clinical diagnosis. I mean to describe people who react with a lot of violence or anger at situations that might happen at an office.

After a cursory read of the article, I'm not sure the title is doing the article any favors here. From my read, it sounds like

a. This is about comet orbitals of the solar system

b. There appear to be _at least two_ planes of comet orbitals that are not co-planar with the planetary plane (both at roughly 60 degrees from the planetary plane)

c. One of these orbitals was initially empty (the article calls this the "empty orbital")

d. Over time, solar- (and galactic-?) tides filled the empty orbital

I think there is a lot here, but, again, cursory read.

I don't think that's quite right

one thousand thousand (1,000 * 1,000) == one million (1,000,000)

one thousand million (1,000 * 1,000,000) == one billion (1,000,000,000)

one thousand billion (1,000 * 1,000,000,000) == one trillion (1,000,000,000,000)

Basically "one thousand ____" means "add 3 zeros"

one million million (1e6 * 1e6) == one trillion (1e12)

one million billion (1e6 * 1e9) == one quadrillion (1e15)

Basically "one million ____" means "add 6 zeros"
Which is why there are so few privacy-conscious options in the market. People won't pay for them.
We're in a world where if you have a high speed cable designed for 4k60p HDR, in a pinch you can also use it to charge your phone. In a pinch you can also use it for a data transfer. In a pinch, you can also use your charging cable to transmit 720p video.

The cables should be marked, if they are not marked with their capability then buy them from another vendor that does mark them.

It's no different than ethernet cables, they all look the same, they could be cat5, cat5e, cat6, etc.
The conscious mind knows, and that only if you think to ask it. The subconscious does not. I wrote about this in reaction to one of the videos earlier: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22256369

I would assert that even with the errors, people get a more realistic view of the past through these reconstructions than by watching the original footage. The reconstructions drop the barrier of otherness, which greatly diminishes the value of the old footage as a historical lesson for the masses. The reconstructions make it seem like a real place that had real people in it.

Moreover... what terrible, horrible thing are we worried about with these reconstructions anyhow? People will have slightly wrong ideas about what color roofs were in the past? People might have wrong ideas about exactly how slidey people's gaits were in the past? It's not like you feed in footage about a train ride or people riding horses down the street and the AI is adding in cell phones, translating people's speech to modern slang, and changing political posters to features modern politicians. We're fighting videos that increase people's connections to the past because we're afraid they... what, exactly?

By all means keep the original and label the reconstructions, but I see no reason to start complaining about them or running around telling people "STOP! Watching these videos might give you WRONG IDEAS about COLORS! What if that BLUE WINDOW was in actuality MAUVE?" This seems more like Victorians having conspicuous cases of the vapors than a real concern.
I don't think main is as fraught, see the AAVE/historic dialect pronunciation of master "massa" and the baggage therein.

Master much more clearly implies the antonyms "slave" "servant" "underling". to me, "main" doesn't have one single strong antonym, it's more contextual, but could be side, alternate, aux, etc.
Wasn't aware it has improved that much. I have ~10 EV era gear which is top of the line from single digit years ago.
Uhhh please explain how non-master branches are considered "apprentices" to the master branch. When they contain sufficiently good code, do they get promoted to master? Do we have multiple master branches in a single repository?

Of course not. This line of argumentation is silly.

The use is most similar to the explicit master/slave terminology used in disk drive configurations, where the "slave" drives report to the "master" drive. In VCS, the alternate (non-master) branches do their own work and periodically "report" to the master branch by merging to it.
Unfortunately I think a lot of kids would shy away from doing this today as it can hurt your GPA -- because of weighting, an A in an AP class is worth more then an A in a shop class.

So if a school is mostly focused on college-bound students, it's kind of natural that these programs have fallen away.

I'm old enough that I did basic shop stuff in middle school -- soldering, bandsaw, even a table saw. No way that would fly today.
And to the training set. It wouldn’t surprise me if machine learning resolution enhancement methods would add a smartphone or some out-of time branding such as Adidas stripes or a Nike swash to some movie scenes.
Why is that a problem?

People can care about an issue without taking a stand or even discussing the issue.

This "with us or against us" attitude is precisely what makes it difficult to get along with activists.

The only reason it is "a problem" is that it doesn't conform to the long term goals of the activists. The company needs to have goals that are separate from those of the activists in order to survive.

Who has free time to identify the driver and do a court case against him/her? And where did the 200EUR come from? Court cases are more expensive than that and it has the effect of mattering only to unwealthy person.
Bringing up the Switch is unfair to USB-C. That would be like complaining about IEC C14 if Nintendo decided to make a connector that was just a hair larger and swapped hot and ground. Not being compliant is completely Nintendo's fault.
The current CEO used to be head of the foundation and board, so she was receiving $1M+ a year already, paid with those donations.
Both 100w charging and high speed data transfer are problems that get harder over long distances, and trying to do them both in the same cable requires many non-trivial feats of engineering, quality materials, and manufacturing.

No one ever said USBC was going to bring these features to cheap $5 cables you buy in the checkout at the corner bodega.
If it's anything like Apple's TV app, it'll probably be awful.

The idea is sound: Let's use a common interface to all the content offered by the apps you already have installed.

But in practice (on Apple at least), it's awful. There's no telling whether you'll actually be able to view the content you see, or if it's just going to lead to some screen where you need to buy the content individually. Want to watch Family Guy? Oh it turns out YouTubeTV (your TV provider) has it but it's not donated to the AppleTV app, so you get a purchase link to buy an episode for $5, even though YouTubeTV actually has the same episode in your DVR library.

Want to watch the $sportsteam game that's on? Oh there's a link right there to watch it in the $sports_app app! Except that link takes you to a page that explains that you don't have the subscription necessary to actually watch the game. Or oops, it's blacked out in your area.

Or maybe you finally select something that's actually available to watch, so it links you out to the app that contains that content, only to have the app fail to support the appropriate intent/deep link, so you just end up on that app's home screen.

It ends up being this very hit-or-miss experience where anything you want to watch has like a 70% chance of actually succeeding, so you don't trust it, and it ends up being worthless.

Yes I'm bitter.
I met my wife in EverQuest almost 20 years ago. I still have a lot of friends who I met from Ultima Online and a few from World of Warcraft (I stopped MMOs around that time) - also one of my friends is someone I met on a local BBS in about 1994.

I knew them exclusively online, a few I've met in person a few times, others we've only ever interacted online for the better part of 20 years.

As the world gets smaller, I think this kind of thing will become more common. I think the borders were smaller 20-30 years ago online, and now there is a bit of nationalism/tribalism separating folks, in part because so much of online interaction is now a "service" and not just a newsgroup, special or general interest forum, or IRC.

I think if some of the decentralized systems become more usable/popular we might start to see these adhoc communities form and disappear more organically online, but probably not.
> Yes, let's just do the whole advertising industry. If you pay for a service, it is illegal to solicit advertisements to your customers.
