I think this would be a bad direction. I bet that most people create an account on GitHub to report an issue or create a pull request directly. I think this should be encouraged.
11. EDA tool developers. The EDA vendors are huge employers of developers, and esp for backend tools you need not only to be able to deal with algo scalability issues (the datasets are enormous), but also understand more and more of the actual physics, electrical engineering aspects. Very interesting combination.

But also, most customers also develop their own tools, scripts, automation of toolchains etc. And the HW dev toolchains are much bigger than what you have in SW.

At the ASIC shop I used to work (with about 40 engineers) we had 3-4 people full time on tools, environment, methodology.
Miniflux, prior to that it was Feedly for a number of years, but I eventually opted for a self-hosted solution and it does the job well alongside Reeder for iOS. Some people may find it lacking in features however.
Mediasmart| Senior Backend Developer | Madrid | REMOTE ok for candidates in Spain

We are a tech advertising company specialized in mobile advertising, now part of the Affle group, public under the India exchange as NSE:AFFLE

We are looking for a team leader/senior backend developer for our mediasmart bidder product.

This is not the typical code glueing position. Our product is a distributed software that evaluates millions of impressions per second, computing the price our clients would pay employing machine learning and advanced maths. Performance, algorithms and data structures are real concerns and in fact we develop our own algorithms, middleware and custom databases.

The candidate will code and provide expertise and guidance to the rest of the team. The position is 100% remote. Our stack is NODE.JS and GOLANG. We require 5-10 years of experience as a coder, preferable on startups or adtech companies. This is not a project manager position. Compensation range €30K-€50K.

Is this true? I don’t speak Hindi but this is exactly opposite to what the pull quotes on the original article say that he said.
Note that you can precede the !:q with `echo` to see the result as well as the invocation without an error.

$ echo !:q
echo '# This string '\''has single'\'' "and double" quotes
and a $'
# This string 'has single' "and double" quotes and a $
Correct.

Don't listen to the doomsayers that just talk and don't propose any practical solutions.

At least there are those who are developing the tools, technologies and policies that will slow it down or make a significant impact in stopping it.
I’ve just done a bit of investigation on the status of this in browsers. This is what I believe to be the case:

• Chrome is roughly planning to ship this in M88 (Q1 2021).

• There are no signals from Firefox or Safari, positive or negative.

• There were concerns earlier on from various spec and browser developers, but those seem to have generally been sorted out. But https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/335 is still open and awaiting a response.

• As far as putting things into the WHATWG DOM and HTML specs is concerned, at least two implementers must be interested, so it won’t be being landed there just yet.

I invite corrections if I’ve missed anything or erred.

Stories about those topics often tick the box of things that "good hackers would find interesting" – i.e., Wikileaks is an emergent phenomenon of the internet age, and NSA tracking of people via the major tech platforms is relevant to everyone who works in or cares about tech and is the kind of thing good hackers can have interesting discussions about.

When we review a serious flaw which caused downtime in production, we aren’t wishy-washy around who and what caused the failure. However, it’s expected that everyone knows it’s a mistake and not deliberate and that there will be an effort to improve and rectify the situation.
Eh, I would the say the ratio itself looks bad here. I am always surprised by how normalized and acceptable spamming is in the form of whatsapp forwarding.

I recommend the remote job route, at least for a year or two. The 'digital nomad' thing gets old after awhile, but it's definitely worth doing for a few years. If you stick to Central and Eastern Europe, there is nothing to worry about re: politics, illness, food quality, etc.

I think this gives the spammers too easy an out.

They're adults who live in a society. They know full well that spamming is not OK, either offline or online. They also know that what they're doing is spamming, not accidentally overly fervent contributions.

Don't cut them any slack. This is pure and simple vandalism with a profit motive.
Not doing any KYC/AML with that kind of volumes can't really be seen as competent by any standards. Of course customers love it when KYC procedures are not needed, but from their own perspective they should have tried at least some basic covering of their own ass by investing in compliance.
Starting out with that behavior because it comes up a lot in tutorials, probably. And then not making a typo mistake earlier on to learn the lesson to not do that with every rm command.

I'd probably have that habit if I didn't once delete everything in a /bin directory early on in my learning, and luckily it was in a VM.
His quote does not state that he intended to be a whistleblower at that time at all.
At my current company we're actively discouraged in training from making small talk during interviews for exactly this reason.

Yes, only screen recording on websites currently. I should probably make this more clear on the website, maybe with a list of features. Its because I wanted to quickly share what I had made on a current tab, instead of fiddling around trying to find the tab/app.

You are right about the "for developers" comment. I have updated the website to now show "for web developers".
Being healthy is soo much more expensive.

If you're really healthy you live to 95 after retiring at 65, taking out social security and medicare for 30 years. And spending the last 10 with alzheimer's basically in full time care.

If you eat like shit you have a heart attack at 57 and die before taking a dime out of medicare or social security.
I find it really interesting as well. CEOs of large NGOs often get attacked for their 500k salaries, which is a senior SWE salary at a FAANG. I think it is because people just really hate hypocrites almost more than anything. If you plea the good cause, and you dare to deviate from that path, it's just a matter of time for the moral fashion to blow in your face. Another thing is that if you plea the good cause, you draw the ire of the people with an activist nature, while if you don't, you're just like all the others.
Sadly not! Only your current tab at the moment.
I agree completely. The Question is what is being done to erase that difference?

IMHO trying to find cultural fit is a form of ongoing discrimination[1] and it strengthens the effect of different starting points[2].

India is countering [2] by enforcing a 50% quota in education, Jobs, and politics. AFAIK West on the other hand is wishing it to vanish without doing anything concrete.

India is taking right steps in the right direction and I am hopeful this will vanish as generation born with caste concepts die off slowly.

> a state with no income tax

Please excuse a non-american asking a question, but doesn't this mean that no money gets paid into retirements as well? Or is that a federal tax?
Taxes and rent are still bigger. For a senior FAANG engineer making $400k a year, CA income taxes are nearly $40k/year, and rent on a house is perhaps another $60k/year (alternatively, ~$100k/year for a mortgage). All other basic needs are a rounding error compared to that, even with a family.
It is great that programming is helping people with criminal record. On the other hand, if you are a programmer , unless you are one of top ones in the world, anyone can compete with you. Someone can switch jobs and take a few months of code bootcamp and become your competitor. Your years of experience only make you less valuable. Anyone can spend a few months learning to code and replace you. The demand for programmers is strong right now but the supply is increasing so fast as even imamates can do it. It is sad on that perspective.
Ah neat, so without the `with`, the Action does not have access to my secrets? That alleviates my concerns.
Your explanation makes sense but is predicated on the VC being able to reliably rank these companies along expected returns.

The perfect VC with perfect foresight might be able to pick just 1 investment and get the best returns from that.

If returns are distributed on a power-law distribution (with the top performer returning a multiple of the second one and so on), then any deviation between the VC ranking and the outcome distribution of returns is very costly. What if I only invest in my predicted top 5, but the real top 1 is ranked 6 in my estimate?

If what matters is to reliably capture the top performers, then the perfect VC would get the top 5 with only 5 investments. But for imperfect VCs, it might be worth it to invest in 50 just to approach 100% chance of capturing these 5 top performers, the 45 others are just the cost of doing that.
Good suggestion. Website updated with a new video now.
flagging impacts the ranking, even before a [flagged] tag is shown, so when you complain that the discussion about this is not on the front page but somewhere deep down the ranking, you are complaining about user flags. (And after a discussion got enough comments, which it did, all further submissions are duplicates in addition)
If we think it odious to control all personal choices that result in long term health effects, then we either have to agree as a society to pay for other people's bad choices or not have universal health care.

Portchain | Architect / Principal Software Engineer | Copenhagen, Denmark | REMOTE (+/- 2hrs from CET) | Full time |

Requirements:

We're looking for a hands on Software Architect (~50% coding) with 15 years minimum of professional experience in Software Engineering. Experience with any or all of the following technologies is a plus: Node.js, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL. Startup experience valued.

We're also hiring for a Senior Software Engineer (5+ years of professional XP).

Our company:

Did you know that 90% of all goods globally are transported through a container, and the largest container vessels are 400 meters long and can transport 20,000 containers at a time? The container shipping industry is the back-bone and enabler of global trade, but it is struggling. At its core the industry is fundamentally inefficient: 50% of all container vessels globally are delayed coming into port, and key planning processes are done manually on a global scale. This leads to high operational costs, lost revenue, and unnecessarily high greenhouse gas emissions

Portchain is a 2 year old Danish container shipping startup devoted to help container carriers and terminals reduce operational complexity and optimize planning. We apply cutting-edge AI leading to both a better bottom line and less greenhouse gas emissions.

We are an international team of 15 people serving a global customer base and several of the largest companies in the industry. We have received $5M in funding to expand the team in order to serve our increasing customer traction.

Did you get a screenshot? This sounds really weird and I'm curious.
That's a good question which I don't have the answer to. Things used to be less lenient so it would stand to reason that spaces are taken by previous longer sentencees. Ireland doesn't have many spaces to begin with. From wikipedia:

> Prisons and prison population

>There are 12 prisons in the Republic of Ireland with a total bed capacity of 4,106 as of 31 December 2009. The daily average number of prisoners in custody in 2009 was 3,881. However, most of these prisons currently operate at or above capacity.[13] On 25 January 2011 the prison population stood at 4,541. There were about 80 prisoners per 100,000 inhabitants in October 2015,[11] and in Northern Ireland it was 78 per 100,000 in February 2016.
One consequence of this is that duplicates of the story keep getting posted. The original based on sharing the President's tweet appears to be this one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24659207
I find it weird how this can't be talked about on HN. This could have profound implications for the country, economy, and upcoming election. The President has been in contact with so many people over the past few days that many senior officials in the government could be infected.

This is not a religious stand against all global state. Username, permissions fine to be global, this is very easy for someone new to your code to grok.

(TIL)
To be fair, classes in Western societies, like lower, middle, upper middle, and upper, are essentially "fake" classes, and have no real definition as well as don't actually fit the generally accepted definition of class in sociology.

If you try to do a class analysis of Western capitalist societies, pretty much everyone is of the same class, which is the working class and comprises anyone from foodstore clerk to tech lead. There are at the margins different classes, like the owner class, the landlord class and the destitute class, but those account altogether for less than 10% of society, and actually see a lot of class mobility.

So while people tend not to marry in such a way that their income will be drastically reduced, it's not really fair to say that outclass marriage is rare, because it generally isn't, and because western societies are fully proletarized and dominated by the working class, which is actually a good thing in many ways.
