Inc-Query | Operations (not-dev) | Full-time | REMOTE [US/Europe/APAC] | https://inc-query.com

Small, profitable, rapidly growing, fully remote tech company. We program surveys insanely fast for private equity and management consulting clients.

If you enjoy dealing with very smart clients in a somewhat technical and fast-paced environment, this role may be for you. The Survey Director exercises 3 different skill sets:

1. Client management/communication skills: Interact with clients all the time

2. Business acumen: Learn about different industries/niches and transfer learning across projects

3. Technical skills: Never-ending supply of short coding puzzles (think <10 lines)

This is not a software engineering role, but some coding familiarity is required. It's a tough role, but super interesting work!

Its very ninche tbh. I think more needs to be done to empower marketers who don't really care about HTML.

I know the web and email and different but its just crazy how slow email is. Its still 10 years behind stuck using <table> layouts. Just insane.

Microsoft for starters should stop with actionable emails and start supportingbasic semantic HTML and CSS3 in all their clients.
This could be classified as poetry.
Please tell me these wonderful non-distracting workplaces you've worked at because you are speaking absolute fiction to my ears.
> Coupled with the fact that the staff behaves like children, pushing back on EVERYTHING that the security teams want to implement.

Sounds like your management structure is weak, and lacks power or willingness to enforce mandates.

Your experience is not universally the case in higher ed or academia.
I don't think you can build paradise this way. There will always be bad tenants. But you could still make life better for many people.
Yeah, this is exactly it. They used to produce enterprise-ish level hardware and at a reasonable price. Their devices, in my experience, were pretty rock solid. Setup took a little bit more work than the consumer (edited) offerings, but then you were done. They just ran. They could handle more packets, at least at the time, than the majority of consumer hardware.

They've now shifted to targeting consumers and their new stuff doesn't even have the basic features of other consumer hardware. Want DDNS? Something found in every other consumer router I've used. Nope. Want an admin console to configure or update without your smartphone (or when your wifi is down again)? Nope. Want to set a static IP for a device? Ok, but we restart the router each time you set one. Want your network to be bigger than /24? Nope. You can checkout their forums and see how long they've been aware consumers want these things and they've delivered on so little.
What I think should be done:

Less free stuff. Free online stuff does not feed quality. Money is the tie that binds. And free stuff binds us to advertisers. Youtube, twitter, facebook, etc, all go to paid tiers and registered accounts.

Eradicate the widespread use of comments. I hate to sound like an old, but go back to established gatekeepers for commentary like well educated editors at newspapers and magazines. Everyone doesn't need a publishing platform.

If that sounds class-ist I guess it kinda is, in a way. Everyone will still have access, but not everyone needs a voice because the structure to support that is corrosive as we've seen.

What I think is possible:

Like everything we learn mostly by making mistakes. Eventually we'll bang our heads against enough walls to find our way out.

In a generation or two people will discount online speech. Already the youngs are discounting facebook.

There will always be bullying, in person or online. There will always be fraud, in person or online. "Education" isn't a magic wand to sprinkle smart dust over the population. Again, even smart people make fundamental and sometimes existential mistakes.

The best we can do is make it harder for those shitty things to happen by performing tourniquets to the flow of free channels that feed online malignant cancer.
It appears to me to be an ad for their no code site builder.

PROJECT 1: I need a web crawler built, with the following properties: given a URL, it should completely render the page in a headless browser, then save a flat (HTML + images) version of the fully rendered page, a WARC file with all page resources, and a thumbnail screenshot. The project will include some mechanism for adding credentials for crawling paywalled sites. I prefer that the coding itself be done in Python, but have no restrictions on what other stuff you rope in to get the job done.

PROJECT 2: Given a podcast URL, do your best to retrieve it and transcribe it into a readable text version.

What's the best option for POE access points that aren't Ubiquiti? They seem to have a corner on this for the home market.
My main criticism goes to the product itself. The idea of building an LMS came up after talking to several instructors. Although there are many LMSs on the market, many instructors have never considered using Moodle and ended up using paid products. Hotmart and Teachable are examples of paid LMSs that are doing really well.

I think that the added value of those products is that the instructor not only has access to the creation and hosting of his courses, but has also integrated checkout and the ability to create landing pages and promote their courses. My idea is to offer the same product, but for free! The hosted version will only cover our costs. Our business is actually focused on the distribution (https://classpert.com), which we believe is by far the hardest problem to solve.

Now back to Moodle, in fact, I've considered extending it before. They already have a community (including a large directory of plugins) and appears to be used by many instructors and institutions.
However, looking from the outside, I don´t think that extending Moodle will be that easy. I´m not an expert in PHP, but I found the codebase messy. Also, the interface is old, ugly and difficult to use and that is a symptom of bad product to me.

Yeah, upload speeds are rarely limiting in most households.

It is usually the network quality for the uplink which creates problems, issues like packet loss, jitter, sudden b/w drops etc become more prominent, When the rated capacity is "20" we rarely get 20 consistently, it is "up to 20" with all that entails.
Tangential.

Games with good stories and gameplay are the same to me as novels, if not better. In that they allow me to experience things otherwise not possible. Like running for dear life when Dhaka is chasing you in Prince of Persia; or decimating a whole village in Skyrim and having that dark big hole in your chest for what you did carry on until you load the game again.

But the most recent learning from myself has been from Divinity 2 Original Sin. Great game. There you have a main avatar and 3 other players, equally qualified in every sense, and you control all 4. The only difference between the avatar and the rest is one's identity tied to the avatar.

At some point I realized my ranger and melee are pretty strong while wearing nothing but tattered loin clothes; while my avatar, a jack of everything cool and carrier of all the gear he could not even wear sucked. This was an epiphany for me in team spirit. I was hoarding everything cool for my avatar. This had 2 effects. Firstly, it starved the rest of the team from getting good, relevant gear. Secondly, the rest remained laser focused on a couple of skill trees while my avatar, or "I", was hoarding all the cool skills wanting to become a god of all the things or something. So I gave away some epic gear to my ranger and melee units and they got buffed a lot. And I also trimmed the avatar into a single well defined role (pyro summoner) and now I have a pretty strong team.

I am pretty sure this pattern would have had a longer lasting effect on my personal and professional development as well, had I not felt it on my skin like that. Everyone knows you're supposed to share or not to be greedy but I wonder for how many that has been a matter of "life and death".
Have you tried xfce? It's even more lightweight than eos, and has existed for more than 20 years.

it's like pulling teeth because you try to get everyone to agree on every decision. sometimes you just have to tell your academic user base that this is the way it is.

it doesn't have to be that way. IT people are pretty shit in general at soft skills. sometimes, you need to stand up for yourself in a conflict.

your userbases digs in their heels because you let them.

I bought a "manufactured home" (aka mobile home) 920 square feet in New Jersey (rich area, 1 hr commute to NYC) for $50,000 with monthly rent (renting the land from the community) at $550/month. 6 years later rent is $600 (it's rent controlled so it stayed relatively low, at least for NJ) and I'm selling the house for about $90,000 (seller's market - got lucky). Most likely prices will drop, it's not typical for manufactured homes to appreciate in value.

But even if I lost money on the home, it was a beautiful place to live. All the people were home owners (they took care of their property). Was an excellent stepping stone as I couldn't have afforded anything, and renting would have been more expensive in the long term.

I highly recommend a manufactured home community. Just keep in mind the rent on land could go up a lot, unless there's rent-control (or some other arrangement, unsure).
Yes, electronic organs often have rectangular envelopes. Pipe speech has an envelope that is far more complex than one might expect; indeed, one of the goals of voicing is to impart an envelope that allows the pipe to be "articulate", to a degree dependent on the caracteristics of the stop of which it is a member and depending on the overall tonal milieu of the specific instrument. Taken to its extreme, this results in a clunky "chiff" sound at the start of each note, something often heard in instruments designed in the "American Classic" and "Neo-Baroque" styles; but with more refinement, it can produce the gentle puff at the beginning of a flute note, or the "bubble" articulation of a French Horn. And at the other end of the envelope is a characteristic decay, initiated by the closing of the valve beneath the pipe and sustained by the resonance of the pipe body (which, in large pipes, can go on for several seconds).

For me the cloud is a selling point. Though one that I'm now reconsidering after all this news.

I have been a Ubiquiti customer and proponent for a few reasons:

1. I have two houses, and the cloud feature lets me easily connect to and manage my devices at the other house when I'm not there. Not a frequent use case, but it does happen, and this just makes it easier. Sure I could setup some other remote access options, but this just works out of the box. I also have their security cams and I can easily monitor those remotely, though the video is stored locally at that location.

2. They occupy a middle between consumer gear and enterprise gear. Giving you flexibility and features that you can't really find in consumer gear.They have a fairly wide and frequently updated product line. One house has ethernet jacks in every room, and for a couple of rooms, I replaced those jacks with Unifi In-Wall HD access points. These are great because they are out of the way, you don't notice them, and they still provide wired ethernet ports. So my office has strong Wifi but I also connect my desktop PC to Gig ethernet via the in-wall AP.

At the other house I use the Flex HD access points connected to MOCA adaptors (the one part of my network not made by Ubiquiti) and just tuck them out of the way.

3. They have a fairly well integrated set of products. I have routers, gateways, switches, and APs, all discrete devices, but managed from the same interface. Managed on the web or on my phone. If I add a new AP to a location, I can just adopt it into the network using the app on my phone, the firmware gets updated and it becomes fully managed, taking on the default settings for that site.

All that said, I still really like their product lines, but this episode made me lose a lot of trust.

The interface is complicated, but they are not "dumb".

The problem is there are too many features packed into a an interface that could be mistaken for something designed 20 years ago.

For some people that is not an issue, but it is a barrier to them competing with the mainstream devices.
> It's best to render front to back, tracking the highest (in screen space) pixel you have drawn

As mentioned in the README of the linked repo:

Instead of drawing from back to the front we can draw from front to back. The advantage is, the we don't have to draw lines to the bottom of the screen every time because of occlusion. However, to guarantee occlusion we need an additional y-buffer. For every column, the highest y position is stored. Because we are drawing from the front to back, the visible part of the next line can only be larger then the highest line previously drawn.

From the article:

In all the time I’ve been tracking virtually everything that AWS says about virtually everything, I’ve never once caught them lying to me. They will decline to answer, or give partial answers. But they have never once said something that wasn’t true. When they requested clarification on my article about Zoom choosing Oracle Cloud, they didn’t disagree with the contents of the article; they cared strongly that we told the full story. That counts for an awful lot.

And later:

I know a lot of folks are rightfully skeptical of “PR” in most cases, and saying that AWS’s folks were somehow different was a sign that I was somehow “too close” to the company.

Maybe that’s true. But I have years of examples and backchannel discussions that PR never knew about to back up the undeniable fact that while there were many times that they didn’t like what I was writing about and hoped I’d change my tone, they never once lied to me in order to achieve that outcome.
