Sales compensation plans can be shockingly complex. Too often, salespeople are forced to use unfriendly accounting software or to pass around buggy Excel spreadsheets. At QuotaPath, we’re solving this problem in a new way by creating a platform that’s built for salespeople, not accountants or executives. Onboarding to QuotaPath doesn't involve writing any code or any formulas. Good UX and beautiful design are at the core of our process. The demand for a product like this is intense and we’re working as hard as we can to deliver features to eager users. We’re looking for engineers to help us accelerate our development. If you’re interested in having a big impact on a small team, this is a great opportunity. At present, we're 29 people, including 7 engineers. We just raised a series A and we have a lot of runway and even more market opportunity.

Our stack is Python + Django on the backend, TypeScript + React on the frontend, but we’re more interested in working with people who are smart and capable than people from any particular background. If you have strong opinions about using different tech, we’ll hear you. Like most startups, we’re built on lots of open source tech and we plan on giving back. We value building a culture of inclusion and transparency. We care about diversity and hope you do too.

I'm the co-founder and CTO, and you can email me directly at eric at quotapath dot com — mention that you're coming from HN :)

PathAI | Boston, MA | https://pathai.com | Onsite / Remote (US) PathAI is looking for full-stack and security engineers to work toward detecting diseases like cancer faster and more accurately while paving the way toward personalized medicine. We're working with a modern stack using Python / Django backend alongside a Vue-powered front-end. Services are containerized, and we do our best to have a great engineering environment alongside our regulatory and compliance efforts. We're a technology company working within healthcare, not a healthcare company trying to leverage technology. Work alongside a diverse set of expert technologists, computational biologists, and computer vision scientists – if you're intellectually curious, it's an amazing environment to be in. We're well-funded with strong revenue, growth, and – most importantly – impact. Currently open positions:

Calvin: Dad, how come old photographs are black and white? Didn't they have color film back then?
Dad: Sure they did. In fact, those old photographs ARE in color. It's just the WORLD was black and white then.
Calvin: Really?
Dad: Yep. The world didn't turn color until sometime in the 1930s, and it was pretty grainy color for a while, too.
Calvin: That's really weird.
Dad: Well, truth is stranger than fiction.
Calvin: But then why are old PAINTINGS in color?! If the world was black and white, wouldn't artists have painted it that way?
Dad: Not necessarily. A lot of great artists were insane.
Calvin: But... but how could they have painted in color anyway? Wouldn't their paints have been shades of grey back then?
Dad: Of course, but they turned colors like everything else did in the '30s.
Calvin: So why didn't old black and white photos turn color too?
Dad: Because they were color pictures of black and white, remember?
I've been having fun with https://textpost.me. It allows me to journal/blog by text message only. It's basically the only consistent, non-social-media method for me that works. So I made it available for others. Though, not many have jumped on board.

Using tags, I am able to keep track of my offline side project - restoring a Boston Whaler boat: https://shanecleveland.com?tag=whaler
I've had this happen with a blender at a Target, and a Christmas tree at a Walmart. The cashiers were very much doing it intentionally. That's what happens when you pay people minimum wage!
I started browsing 4Chan at around age 10-11 (until about age 17) and despite it being a toxic cesspool, I think it was a valuable (and probably formative) experience.

In other parts of the world where people have it much rougher, children aren't put inside of a bubble where they remain clueless about how the world works and the nature of human beings.

Not everyone is awful -- most people aren't, I assume (or perhaps, like to hope).

But 4chan put you face to face with some of the most vile, fucked-up shit you'd ever seen in your life on the daily. And this can give you a lot of perspective, especially early on in life.

Being a 10 year old from suburbia who had only lived this regular, sheltered America life and then getting on 4Chan and seeing + interacting with these types of people was eye opening and quickly sheds light on a lot of things you probably couldn't conceive of.

I guess it could make you callous or insensitive too, but fortunately I like to think that didn't happen to me.

Wait, so where did the limbs come from anyway, if they could not be gained?
None of my friends had beepers. LOL I assumed all folks with beepers were dealers.
Yeah, that's the core of it. Climeworks absorbs CO2 on their amine solid sorbent surface before releasing it by heating up the sorbent to prepare it for a new round of CO2. That CO2 then needs to be stored somewhere. I'm not familiar with the inner workings of Climeworks, but if I were there that would be what concerned me the most. I know they're testing a mineralization solutipn with Carbfix in Iceland that could be promising, but expensive. We're not at sufficient scale to offer credits to consumers. but this could be on the agenda in a few months. As for cost per tonne this depends a lot on the commercial arrangements we have in place. More meaningful is the energy consumption per tonne which is <4 MWh/ tonne. This will be reduced to 3MWh/tonne. Based on current commercial conversations we're expecting a CO2 price below $50/t for our first plant
Always interesting to see how you can get down voted without evidence to the contrary being provided.

I'm very welcome to be told how I'm wrong in this regard but as it stands these concerns alone I raised are on record and points of concern.

I'm willing to admit china is sharing better information now. At the same time that they start to blame Australian beef and American imports for the mythical typhoid Mary.
Always helps to drip feed enough information to get slapped on the wrist by the WHO for not fully cooperating rather than standing to be accused of not taking part...

Harsh hazing and initiation rituals are a pretty effective way to build team "spirit" and make people believe the group they've joined is special, and being a part of it makes them special or better than non-members. It may or may not be part of why FAANG interviews the way they do, but it is likely part of the outcome.

They say great minds think alike, but if you're thinking like me instead... I'm so, so sorry.
It's not totally inconceivable that there are Harbor Freight torque wrenches that are initially is on par with a CDI, Precision Instruments (both of whom Snap-On rebrand), or the Tech-Angle with regards to torque accuracy, but good luck ever getting a reputable metrology shop to touch a Harbor Freight torque wrench (or one that isn't American made, for that matter) when it inevitably comes time to do a re-calibration.
I live in Canada and noticed these same ads - what is this garbage? It seemed insanely predatory and unethical.

I've never seen anything like this in my life and had the exact same reaction.
Is this some kind of advanced google PR algorithm move to finally kill off something that nobody will mind, because nobody knows it exists?

Currently on Pixel 5, a few months in. So far so good.

I moved from my Pixel 4 when a defect ("torn" battery cable after "normal" drop while encased) triggered a cascade of failures - repair from iFixit unexpectedly resulted in 0 water-sealing - then water resulted in permadeath. Was always disappointed in their "SOLI" radar gesture implementation - it 80% of the time would do something I did not want it to do - overall that feature was a fail IMO.

Pixel 3 was ok for my experience.

I barely recall moving from my Pixel 2 when a defect motivated that move as well. Rebooting randomly or something.
Yep, exactly! The world needs CaO for cement. We have a carbon neutral process for making it. It's actually overall negative as not all carbonates we extract are usable in cement production. But as far as cement producers are concerned it's carbon neutral.
You can still live like what's described in this article. Get yourself a dumbphone and a paper atlas, only pay with cash, avoid loyalty cards, read paper books, newspapers, etc

Now and then I do that, just to switch off from our hyper-connected world. Switching off is the new peace of mind.
Okay, trying it out:

In my case it was even worse, as I started with ClojureScript, and official documentation was simply abysmal then.
Without getting into the debate at all, the main focus of recent moderation attempts have been to target "abuse"/"hate speech", however you want to define that.

Adding "offensive" widens the scope enormously and unfairly and suddenly we're into the realms of restricting the freedom of speech for normal everyday situations.

Very nicely written. Made me feel nostalgic of the faint memories when I was a kid.

Not really the main theme of this article, but I guess I do lack the courage of approaching a woman for her number and asking her out these days. Can't imagine how hard that is in real life.
Bank error (to use monopoly terminology) isn’t the same as bank robbery. This is irrevant to what they’re trying to prevent.
Integrated Circuits. The article is on a technical website so I think they assume you already know what is the acronym of IC. But anyways add two words of explanation wouldn’t hurt anyone.
I haven't had windows crash on me when I wasn't doing driver stuff in literally years. Something is wrong with your hardware, unless you're talking about the software that you are using on windows. If those crash it's not windows fault it's just bad programming.
Very cool project!

A couple questions:

1. How does your synthetic limestone compare to natural limestone? Are there any important performance differences in terms of the material properties of the resulting concrete?

2. What are the biggest bottlenecks/obstacles in terms of scaling this to the point it could replace a significant portion of natural limestone used today?

Edit: do you have any blog posts/more information about what you're doing? I would love to share this around, but unless I'm missing it your site is very light on details.
Thank you! I never seem to remember this (but I don't use Clojure, so it's not an ingrained knowledge)
They're pretty good too ;)
So who is physically building this chip?
Very true. Oddly where I live now, the good and bad parts of town are very interspersed. You can have million dollar subdivisions a mile from a trailer park.

The added bonus is that all stores treat everyone as a criminal, apparently :).
I remember I waited a friend 8hours on a bench, because I told him so, I will wait there.

That's nice. The people who are architects at my company are generally very good developers since you have to be a highly regarded senior dev to even be considered to the position. They don't work on the implementation though.
> The underlying fallacy is the idea that politics has any conclusions at all.

I'd say that there are certain flavors of political thought that have an unfolding utopia built into them. With enough of XXXism, an optimal state is reached.

It's an exercise for the reader to determine which sorts of philosophy of human organization have that notion built-in.
The NYT is using that term because most Americans have never even heard the more fitting English-language term "graphic novels", and wouldn't know what it meant if the NYT used it.

(Though, also, it's clickbait. They want to shock people into reading the article by asking an implicit question with an evocative contrast: highlighting the discrepancy of mood between a term usually used to refer to high-brow concepts — "Culture" — and a term usually applied to low-brow media — "Comic Books". The body of the article, though investigating a similar tension, doesn't carry that same derogatory editorial thrust.)
Good point; it's not (or, may not be) that more dollar stores are opening, it's that fewer other stores are opening.
Opinion: Companies should eliminate bias in their compensation processes
Am I to understand from this that the New York Times (and perhaps the bien pensant in the US) consider mere "comic books" some sort of gutter culture?

My last trip to Paris I spent a long time in these "comic book" stores. They are absolute goldmines with passionate and knowledgeable staff and incredible selections.
I have a friend who did that. It's pretty irritating trying to remember his unique constraints on communication that I need to know in order to reach him.

Some people conflate authenticity for interactions with others who are willing to go way out of their way to spend time with you.

There are several Google results explicitly calling it an insult:

https://www.prigge-recht.de/duzen-sie-niemals-einen-polizist...

https://www.helpster.de/polizei-duzen-das-sollten-sie-beacht...

(the first one seems to be written by a legal expert)

But it is indeed a bit more complicated as there may be circumstances where "du" could not be considered disrespectful (e.g. if the police officer does it first). There are a lot of Google results about German celebrity Dieter Bohlen winning a legal case by establishing that he uses the colloquial form with everyone and therefore using it on a police officer could not have been an expression of disrespect.

But when dealing with police officers, the burden of proof tends to be on the "offender" in practice, so for most people it's probably cheaper to pay a fine than go to court.

That said, unless you have the spare change to pay the fee or a legal insurance willing to cover you for this, I simply wouldn't risk it and since most Germans believe there's a crime called "Beamtenbeleidigung" (insulting a public official, which is not a separate crime from the more generic "insult" -- the misconception arises because it's not worth the effort for most people to sue over an ordinary insult) I don't think many people risk it unless they're already being considerably more offensive than merely being a bit disrespectful.
>> There is a reason why some people have a smartphone but not a computer.

I think ahofmann is referring to people who have a smartphone but not a desktop / laptop or similar.
Maybe but I think the hardware survey is opt in? I get asked occasionally if i want to be counted.

So less than that.
