QuotaPath | Engineers of all experience levels | Full-time | Philadelphia, PA and Austin, TX | Remote OK, near either city gently preferred, US and Canada only | https://www.quotapath.com
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 45 people, including 13 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 :)

SEEKING WORK | Remote only, based in Germany

I do electronics, end to end (design from idea, part selection, layout, prototyping, testing, enclosure design). Lately I've been working mainly on adapting existing designs to the new reality of part shortages. If you have a device that you can't produce at the moment due to part shortages I might be able to help you redesign it for the current availability situation. Of course I'm also more than happy to help with new devices. Contact at kliment@0xfb.com or Kliment on liberachat.

Recent example of this kind of adaptation: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arthurwolf/smoothieboar...

I won't work on weapons, advertising, cryptocurrencies or automotive (for motivation on the latter, see my analysis on the reason for the component crisis here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26931498 ). This is non-negotiable, don't bother asking.

They're transparent about the mechanisms in general, but plenty of the mechanisms are arbitrary by nature. The article discusses hedonic adjustment for instance. That isn't a scientific or mathematical change. That's people at the fed making personal judgement calls about how good the iphone 12 is vs the iphone 11, and adjusting the price increases on the basis of that personal judgement call.

If you open the link you shared, you can see they make hedonic adjustments for men's suits, the first item in the list. Are suits today really much higher quality than they were 10 years ago, necessitating a decrease in the actual price inflation of a man's suit? The fed thinks so, but they don't share the details of why or how much hedonic adjustment men's suits deserve.
No, we are absolutely not. You are measuring time spent, I am measuring results. The results, aka homecooked food, are not even barely passable in an American context. As I already said, pasta salad, microwaved mac and cheese and occasional weekend burgers are not homecooking. Just open the fridge of the average American household, it is a barren wasteland. Somehow I doubt modern Europe is doing much better, though possibly some pockets, especially in the Latin world, are holding by a thread.

I am aghast at the misogynistic downplay of the skills, hard work, love and dedication our foremothers poured in keeping the household happily humming along. But to each its own, at this point some of these words are probably just some empty strange anachronisms. Enjoy the Nordic lifelong solitude, probably happier to simply not know what has been lost.

Something that is not explicitly mentioned in this piece, but that I think is probably a large contributor to why Mr. Buffet found success with this path:

It is very difficult to be wrong while you're reading. It's much easier for someone who's actually talking to you to show you that an opinion you hold is incorrect. And you can't improve at anything without learning when you're wrong.

Good reminder to balance reading and learning, developing relationships with peers, and taking actions.

If you spend the next 50 years just reading, you will realize you missed the opportunity to make an impact on the world, whatever your goals are. If you just act randomly, you probably won't get anywhere either. And if you only read and act alone, you probably are limiting both your opportunities to learn and your opportunities to leverage your efforts by working with others.

> It's a classic case of a system designed for the largest scales being adopted by 2-person teams because it's "hip to be just like the big boys".

People are still saying this? I remember hearing this around 2007 when I started to use git. It's completely wrong. How would I, as a single developer alone, even use CVS or SVN? Have my own server running locally? I tried that and it sucked. Maybe there's some other tool I could use instead, well now I have to learn two tools. Git is popular because it works at all scales.

Show HN: Open-Source Data Security Platform
Author here. Feel free to ask me any questions.

This is a project I've been working on full-time with 2 other SWEs for about a year. We originally stumbled into this with some Security Consulting work that we did for some startups. We realized that the Data Security space was quite lacking when it came time for companies to start bolting on "Compliance" to their existing software, and that's why we built LunaSec.

It's basically a toolkit that's designed to prevent various security vulnerabilities from having negative impact by preventing any security vulnerabilities from actually leak sensitive data. It's a lot to explain here, and we've better documented it in our docs on Security[0] and our Threat Modelling for each vuln.

The core of the tech is built around encrypting data one-way and using an identifier to access records again later (called Tokenization). We then we use that to gate access to data by adding short-lived authorization "grants" to de-tokenize data, we add drop-in replacements for common form elements like <input> elements but that work via iframes, and we have a way to automatically "migrate" functions into a Lambda where they have restricted network permissions (in POC form).

The closest alternatives to this functionality are all Enterprise, proprietary software (such as VeryGoodSecurity). Nobody is really taking the approach we are though in terms of end-to-end security.

We've got some big goals and it's going to take a lot of time to get to all of them. If you have a minute to check out our demo app[1] and try this out, that would be very much appreciated!

I personally wanted to not just try to build yet-another-SaaS and, instead, go the Open Source route. We just finished making this all Open Source and easily demo-able, which took a few months alone, so I'm sure there will be some bugs and rough edges to get started with this.

This is the first time we're posting about this publicly as an Open Source project, instead of just something we set up for companies directly (we were in private beta for a while). Please share any thoughts that you have.

Thank you!

I think the example is very poor, it sounds like a atraw man argument.

Asking about fundamentals in an interview is, surely, a given? I don't necessarily need everyone to know everything about everything but if I met a dev who didn't know some software principles or a DBA who couldn't explain ACID to at least a basic level, why would I want to employ them? Because they tell me that they just work it out when necessary?

I've cleaned up too much code from people who think "just use an array" or searching through a massive list because they don't know how dictionaries work.

The interview questions sound more than reasonable and then the OP tries to destroy this by saying that not everyone knows all the details of everything which is not what most people would call questions on fundamentals.
The phrasing of the question is odd and hints at rhetoric instead of curiosity as intention.

What if it's only 99.99% sure that CO2 is the reason for climate change? What about 90%? No need to act until we bring that up to 100%?

What's with the fixation on 0.04% as a number? Things can't have huge impact unless numbers are also big? I don't want to offend, but that's honestly third grade mentality.

There's surprise about small things having little impact, and then there's denial hidden as feigned curiosity. Especially when the answers are directly available from much more credible sources than random internet posters.

Compare with:

"Has it yet been absolutely proven 100% that the lead comprising 0.03% [hypothetically - for reference, this is 100000x the FDA limit] of our food intake is the main culprit/control knob which controls brain development?"

No, it actually isn't the "main" control knob. And our bodies are also complex with many feedback loops. And no study will ever reach p = 0. And it's a really small number. And yet we have made "extremely huge decisions" regarding what fuels we allow, what tests food have to undergo etc...

subjectivity is loved by the powerful

rule of subjectivity is, at the end of the day, rule of the powerful: when two parties disagree and the situation can be defined in primarily subjective terms, the most powerful party wins

by hiding behind outcast, oppressed or unpopular groups with often legitimate (though perhaps subjective, to an extent) grievances, the powerful are able to push through the subjective zeitgeist, which is then used to their advantage
I don't think that's clear, actually. If they are testifying as UF professors, they might be acting in the course of their duties because they are representing the university.

I think that's the argument, anyway, and why if they testify just as concerned citizens there would be no way to stop them.
So this is essentially Condors cloning themselves.
Spacelift | Remote | Europe | Full-time | Senior Software Engineer | $80-120k

We're a VC-funded startup building an automation platform for Infrastructure-as-Code, adding a Policy-as-Code layer above it, in order to make IaC usable in bigger companies, where you have to take care of state consistency, selective permissions, a usable git flow, etc.

On the backend we're using 100% Go with AWS primitives. We're looking for backend developers who like doing DevOps'y stuff sometimes (because in a way it's the spirit of our company), or have experience with the cloud native ecosystem. Ideally you'd have experience working with an IaC tool, i.e. Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible, CloudFormation, or SaltStack.

Overall we have a deeply technical product, trying to build something customers love to use, and already have a lot of happy and satisfied clients.

We promise interesting work, the ability to open source parts of the project which don't give us a business advantage, as well as sane working hours.

We've also got investment days on Fridays, when you can work on anything you want, as long as it could possibly benefit Spacelift in some way.

If that sounds like fun to you, apply at https://spacelift.jobs.personio.com/job/446363?display=en or email me at kubam at spacelift dot io!

It's the poor who this hits most. Most tech workers can 'absorb' this. We may get raises, bonuses, etc., to make up the diff.

The display output of the M1, according to the very clever devs working on Asahi Linux, is a bit funky under the hood.

I've found display compatibility has not been straightforward, having owned an M1 mini for the last year...which is unfortunate for a computer without a built-in screen.

Don't count on it supporting multiple external monitors. Expect compatibility issues, etc.

Last week it kind of burned a flickering rectangle onto my Dell ultrasharp 4k, which I thought was toast, but it gradually cleared up.

Like I said - weird.
