SimplePay | Ruby on Rails Developers | UTC+0 to UTC+8 | REMOTE

SimplePay is a profitable, developer-owned online payroll software company, with solid annual growth. Our software lets 21,000 small business owners (and their accountants) run their South African, Ireland, Singapore and Hong Kong payrolls without headaches, so they can focus on the challenge of building their businesses. We're also developing new product lines.

Our development team was already mostly remote pre-pandemic. We have a very supportive culture, and are putting a lot of thought into ensuring remote work is happy work.

To find out more about us, check our developer blog (https://tech.simplepay.cloud) or about page (https://www.simplepay.co.za/about)

Do you believe SPAs are overkill for most apps, but wouldn't mind digging into Vue.js for pages that will benefit from the increased interactivity? Do you laugh when people give up the power of SQL DBs in favour of data stores that don't offer any benefits for their use case? If so, you may fit in well with our mindset.

Experience: Ruby on Rails. If you've used other web frameworks and are keen to get into Rails we'd definitely consider you! Just be sure to mention that in your application. The work is mostly on the back-end, but some front-end skills are welcome - we're doing more and more interactive things with Vue.js.

How to Build Wealth in Your Teens and 20s-Ajulu's Thoughts
Faced with some lawn repair, I once joined the lawncare subreddit. It was an intense echo chamber of lawn adjacent neuroticism - stress over chemicals, mowing heights, quite a few people angry at their neighbours for foolishly trying to do them a favour by cutting some of their grass (inevitably too short or tall), and a fetishisation of the "perfect" lawn - cut short with visible stripes and no other vegetation.

I definitely like lawns - they're great for running about on, playing games, having a picnic. But other vegetation is nice too. The beauty of a slightly wild garden is the abundance of nature - insects, birds, the scent of flowers. Lawns are a monoculture with none of that.

This is interesting, this could turn out to be a new manufacturing problem, not a design flaw perhaps?
I am currently learning that platform work in most places means nothing if you cannot point at an actual metric that management at appropriate level cares about, changing in a very tangible way; or unless your users are your peers, and you can be so good/promote yourself so well that your sheer reputation helps (and I'm not sure the latter even works in most places).

I've actually previously worked at a platform team for a ton of internal customers, and then at a B2B startup selling platforms - that's where you get promoted for platform development, cause platform is the product and reducing request latency or whatever is something VPs care about... in my current team I have a long list of impactful (on platform level) improvements I could make to infrastructure and libraries, engineering fundamentals, etc... that I'm not doing, cause I'm doing some boring work that will move some number, or sitting in meetings with 3 teams trying to get out a feature, that customers (or management) care about for some strange reason ;) E.g. perf work only matters when we want to save on server budget, and we have to decide to save on it beforehand, and it still doesn't matter as much as shipping some new widget or a metric change. Or e.g. I created a library for X that ended up being used by a bunch of people in a few teams (not the original goal). I am pretty sure nobody above IC level cares. All I get for that are occasional bug reports and a perception that I might be an expert at X... if the library doesn't contribute to my career via the latter, there's no other way it will :)
I think the OP misunderstands the purpose of many of these stickers, especially the ones used by the independent left or the alt-right. Their purpose is not to convince you to vote for a particular party. The main purpose is often to mark a certain territory, based on the stickers, it is often easy to determine how strong the antifascist left or the alt-right or neo-fascist right is in a particular district of a major city.
Electric DIY is not categorically “a bad idea” and particularly should not (IMO) be argued so in a pro right-to-repair argument.
> it'll be slightly less messy because you just configure firewall rules per IPv6 address instead of translating the limited port space of your one external IPv4 address into a number of internal Port/IPv4 combinations. So the chance to screw up is lessened.

as mentioned, with ipv6 you now have to care/worry about multiple classes of numbers, so i'd argue that because the number-space is increased, so is the chance to screw up.

i grew up with windows 3.x computers having a public ip and no firewall and as nice as incoming connections by default are for an enthusiast, they are a unecessary danger for the masses.

as you said, hole-punching works on ipv6 as well and has to be initiated from the inside, so it's no argument for .
You're a bot, ain't you?
The difference is marginal in my view. The only difference now is that they wear suits and bleed you slowly instead of putting you out of your misery with one shot.

>half of the people in the comments are asking why they should trust them and rightfully so.

Exactly. The problem isn't only "will they sell my data via B2B", or, "Do they hand out data to governments via classified programs like PRISM?"

The question is "how is this yet another centralized trove of data protected". Governments and organized crime both hack servers. The real question is "how protected is data when that happens?"

The reason self-hosting is so nice, is you can harder the hell out of your own server, you know it's up to date, and you know compromising it is low priority.

So my take is this: Any cloud service promoting itself as libre, without using end-to-end encryption for all communication, and client-side encryption for *everything* else, is indistinguishable from malicious companies. You're supposed to know what you can do for the user, and you're also supposed to actually implement those best practices.

Also, since the effectiveness of web based crypto has been discussed ad nauseam, and debunked by major names like Arcieri and Kobeissi, I'm just going to state "you better deliver FOSS native clients for your cloud, otherwise it's not going to matter".
Indeed. The only one I've got right
They've already stated their goal is to enable P2P Matrix in the midterm.

> 'homeserver' can be embedded in each device

There's pros and cons for that. In a stateless "message passing" model having many different servers has little cost, but in a "state resolution" (consensus) model having many different servers can have a cost because servers may be offline at times (and then need to reconcile history) or have their connections blocked to other nodes.

There's also the "backup" problem. You wouldn't want a user loosing their phone to lose their digital identity completely. It should be possible to craft some "social recovery" protocol using Shamir's secret sharing, but we're not quite there yet.

That was for the cons, since i'm sure we're all convinced of the pros :)

I read "Behave" and IIRC it covers around 80-90% of the lectures, moreover on the book you will find a couple of appendixes to refresh the reader on the basics of Biology and Neurology to better understand certain sections. I think that the lectures are a bit more entertaining than the book, but I found it more easy to follow than the lessons.
Ah, the inevitable NAT security comment on every IPv6 discussion.

> yet it removes a whole class of problem (eg: windows print spooler is listening on [::] by default or something like that)

NAT is just address translation, that's it: it doesn't imply a firewall. What you're thinking is a typical CPE router which, along masquerading the usual RFC 1918 range, runs a stateful firewall that blocks all incoming connections by default (but can be easily punched, even automatically by NAT-PMP, UPnP and a bunch of other protocols).

Lifting the NAT doesn't mean lifting the firewall: new ISPs that deployed native IPv6 are doing exactly the same firewalling as before.

Let's say that you have a very large marketing list with 200k people, but you only email once per month.

MailChimp = $1,190 per month if sent as marketing email priced on number of contacts, $200 per month if sent as transactional email priced as number of emails

SendGrid = $90 per month priced as number of emails

Just using ListMonk with SendGrid if you have a large number of subscribers would be worth it.

ListMonk represents the solution to mailing list management, IP reputation is a separate problem.

For things like charities that have tight budgets and potentially huge contact lists, ListMonk would really help them embrace email more because the pricing wouldn't put them off.
Hello, your post states that you are looking for junior developers, but every job post on your website asks for 3+ years experience? I'm assuming we're supposed to apply anyways? Is there anyone I can contact to learn more about the positions?
1. I think AGPL is a good license for web apps that can also dissuade Elastic/Mongo-like fiascos. Mastodon, Metabase, Grafana, Minio etc. are AGPL and are widely used.

2. We see ourselves as a group of hackers and not really as a corporate entity. Many projects that come out of our team are largely individual efforts. For instance, I have spend considerable personal time working on listmonk over the last couple of years just because I like it. There is no Zerodha mandate involved. Only projects that have to be branded as Zerodha or involve a lot of multi-dev effort go under the official handle (ref: https://zerodha.tech/projects)

3. listmonk offers a one-click Heroku button (a bunch of simple scripts really), so it should just be a matter of creating deployment scripts for other platforms as well. I have not looked into it personally.
I became a project manager - still behind a screen but the problems are more around decisions to be made, resourcing of people, risks, timeframes etc. If you’re organised and still like the corporate environment it can be good. Look into pmbok or prince2, or agilepm.

Otherwise I’ve started doing some hobby woodwork and enjoy that a lot - there’s some logic/mental stimulation in designing something on paper then building it with hand tools. Not sure if there’s options where you’d be building what you want though, you’d probably be in the same trap of building what the boss wants.
But who is the dragon then?
People like to think that influencing bad behaviour has to happen bottom up. And while that "may" be true, it's only true, because the people that are actually responsible for enforcing proper rules and protecting the consumers are lazy, slow, or corrupt or all three at once.

It's like the old debate of who's responsible for forcing change on plastic production. The consumer buying veggies or the regulators? It's clearly the regulators and companies, even though people like to blame the consumer for not making the right choice.

It's how we justify the bad actors behaviour, just because they're more powerful and we want to rationalize it somehow.
They do receive something in return, passage on that land. With taxation you don't have a choice on what you get for it, it is not a restaurant.

I just sat down, set up the initial create-react-app template (using Typescript, because I like Typescript), and started building a project.

That's probably the most helpful and frustrating way. But at least with React, the tutorials and documentation are both really useful, so it's very hard to get stuck.

AMD64 hit the market in 2003. Adoption on the software, desktop side was mostly delayed because Vista as a whole failed and XP64 was very niche (on servers and Linux desktops everyone jumped on it). 32 bit Windows outside VMs is only really needed for Intels gimped low end SoCs which lacked AMD64 support for a long time.

The value prop of AMD64 was very clear from the start: better performance, more memory, without porting to a 64 bit RISC which coincidentally were all dying or dead at the time. The only other option at the time was IA64 - Itanium - which sucked and was way more expensive.

The value prop of v6 is: ??? Learn an entirely new networking stack! Enjoy degraded service because v6 will cause inexplicable hangs and timeouts! Deal with a weird ass protocol founded on perimeter security which is not something we have been doing for 20 years! Fun for the whole family!

I don't buy it.

Sounds like FUD to me. These neither of these arguments apply specifically to docker registries and are more an argument against any form of self-hosting, which is a totally different conversation.

Having to rebuild if your server dies and you have no backups is obvious, same is for true for any part of your infrastructure and seems more like a deeply flawed ops strategy as a whole at the organization.

And in this case we are talking about self hosting as in not buying it as a service, not necessarily on your own hardware. I've self-hosted docker registries on a VPS from cloud provides who also provide backup and resilience against underlying hardware failures as a part of their service. If a server dies the VM is transparently moved to another machine, no big deal.
This was exactly my experience. On many, my first thought was the correct movie. Very interesting.

You fail to see the parallels. A state is a group of people, and taxation is money for that group. I guess you are thinking emotionally and with associations ("state" and "tax" is something "respectful" and "civilized" and "bedouins" and "robbers" are something "uncivilized").
With all the quantitative easing, most of the Western world is in a similar bubble.

You have to account for this as a Hidden cost of buying a mac. Many business laptops use bog standard $100ish panels, Apple will slap you with a $600 bill. I maybe add ~10% to the sticker price of any mac in my head to account for extra repair spend.

All the same if you're more productive on MacOS the cost of a Mac is likely dwarfed by the benefits. These days Macs also have hardware that's in a bit of a class of it's own, show me a completely silent Windows laptop that competes with the m1 air.

You're somewhat unusual then, in that those who don't care, are happy with FAANG (et al) and wouldn't sign up for this due to no need.

On the other hand there are people (like myself) who are privacy focused, and the first alarm bell is who the heck are these people? They're a random company I've never heard of, hosting free software which I can (and do) host myself and offering to store all of my private, personal and/or important information for me.

Although they may very well be perfectly legitimate and caring people, how do you know their goal isn't to get as many people's data as possible and sell it off to <insert your worst nightmare here>?

This is the issue with the brand recognition problem, and I'm not sure what that target audience is that you fit into.
Nuitka is a wonderful project which in my opinion doesn't get enough attention.

I first found it back in 2015 when I worked at a company where we built a python based desktop application as a part of our industrial control system. Nuitka provided better performance then pyinstaller/cx_freeze while it was still simple to work with. Back then there were still a few incompatibilities but I've followed the project throughout the years and it's mature like a fine wine since.
Well that about clears things up! Thank you.

"My mother" is an A&A customer as she lives somewhere where FFTC is the best form of broadband you can get (and I pay the bill -- A&A are amazing and deserve all the praise they get).

Where I live, my partner subscribes to Virgin Media as they're irritatingly the only ones who can provide a ~1 GBit pipe where we live. I just had a look at both of them again, and whilst Virgin offers 1.1 GBit, Zen and A&A offer ~40 MBit. I don't live in London, and as far as I know, there are no other high bandwidth fibre or cable providers in the area.

Do you know why? I know Virgin has its own infrastructure, but it irritates me that BT have been forced to unbundle their services, yet the cable cartel have not.
