SumUp | Multiple Software Engineering and DevOps positions | Berlin / Cologne / Sofia / Paris / Barcelona / Warsaw / Copenhagen / REMOTE (Germany or EU) | VISA | https://sumup.com

SumUp is a leading financial technology company, serving millions of merchants across 32 markets. We empower business owners by enabling them to accept card payments in-store, in-app and online, in a simple, secure and cost-effective way. We're already 3000+ SumUppers around the globe and growing fast!

For me personally the top reason to work for SumUp is probably our engineering and team culture. We invest heavily into our DevOps capabilities and work in small autonomous and cross-functional teams.

We offer bi-weekly Hack Days for projects of your choice, as well as annual Hack Weeks (in May we're all going to Portugal), a generous learning and development budget and plenty of perks.

I'm mostly looking for new colleagues to join us building our first consumer-facing solutions and help our millions of existing merchants to connect with their customers to turn payment transactions into relationships:

• Backend Engineers: Go (golang) / PostgreSQL / k8s / AWS stack. You should bring some backend experience, but Go knowledge is a bonus, not a must. We're happy to train you https://grnh.se/49a869762us

• Android Mobile Engineers: Java / Kotlin / Android frameworks https://grnh.se/e0c5b9162us

• VP of Consumer Business / Consumer Business Leader https://grnh.se/c9454c5f2us

Many many more roles (e.g. DevOps / JavaScript/TypeScript/React Frontend / Platform / Hardware / Embedded / QA Engineer, Java/Kotlin/Node.js/Go Backend Developer roles, and UX and Product Designer, Product Manager, Engineering Manager, ML, Data and Analytics): https://grnh.se/a27fea202us

Happy to answer any questions. My email is in my profile.
I had a similar insight some years ago. I write my TODOs mixed with text in markdown notes and use a CLI to do nice things like exploration and journaling. It purposefully doesn't have any state besides the notes in itself.

https://github.com/danisztls/journal

Lately I'm rarely using it because most of the things that I really have to do (work) are on my email inbox or containerized in project dirs. And for the later I just run 'rg "TODO:"' in the project dir.
This is so wonderful! I hope it becomes a standard, and we get calandering/reminder type tools to work with it.
OpenCL on Metal – what if clvk works?
RSA is bad, because developers do not implement it as specified and ECC is good, because most developers will not implement it themself, because they do not understand ECC and therefor use libraries? IMHO a huge advantage of RSA over ECC is it is easy to explain. After you have explained the different kinds of elliptic curves and their pitfalls, you have to explain the integrated encryption scheme to actually use it for encryption. But ok, you want hybrid encryption with RSA too, but in theory, you do not have to.

Booli | Stockholm, Sweden | ONSITE | Full-Time | https://www.booli.se

Booli is a search engine for housing in Sweden making the housing market more open and transparent and helping consumers better understand their household economy. We build products tailored for different customers on top of a foundation of collecting and organizing data from a lot of different sources.

It's a nice place to work since:

- the housing market is engaging and has interesting data sets

- we're solving real problems for real people

- we're in the middle of some exciting technical shifts where we are not afraid to challenge ourselves

- we have a healthy work culture

- we're seeing some exciting growth right now.

We are now looking for more developers to join us, both frontend, backend and devops. At least some understanding of Swedish is required to understand and communicate with our users.

The article offers some potential explanations. As they achieve more status their peer group changes and they desire more status relative to their new group. They are looking for that huge exit or massive success.

Alternatively you just don't see the people who retire and spend time with family and friends. They don't post here, they don't have blogs, they don't have articles posted about them. They are just living life.
If anyone is just learning about cmd-backtick, you also need to add cmd-shift-backtick to your muscle memory.

Just like cmd-shift-tab, it’ll cycle “backwards”, but with windows I find it useful much more often than apps, since flipping between two windows out of N is pretty common for me.

I do them in bulk, when i have bits of downtime here and there like waiting for water to boil. I use my phone to scan, and then move the photos

I try to be up to date by the end of each month because i also scan receipts and like having them for reference when looking over my spend for month. That said Ive still got some march notes to scan in. I dont review them at all in relation to scanning them. I am making a digital archive of things Ive written down for any reason. If it is not worth archiving then i can delete it later, which i often do.

What helped me most with becoming consistent with it was a few key things listed below - and the overall process can be picked up and put down whenever i feel like it without causing chaos

1) Respect the page. when taking the note, I do not assume context will exist for it later. If a stranger were to get a photo dump of all my notes, they have a reasonable chance of organizing them appropriately. Missing context is written on the page first before putting it away, like date, page number, header keywords

2) I scan everything with my phone

3) I move scans from my phone to a single 'destination' folder on my computer / cloud and delete from my phone.

4) Within the destination folder, I subfolder for items of multiple pages. Not categories or dates or anything fancy. Just a very simple grouping of page x of y situations. No thinking involved. Similar to a stapler

5) I move things out of that scan dump folder into my regular digital file organization as needed, if needed. Personally, I have a "Handwritten Notes" folder - and within that folder I have an "Unfiled" folder which is my scan dump location for #3. After Im done with step 3 I move everything up a level out of the "unfiled" folder

In general, most of my digital file organization is with shortcuts anyway, so at this point im done with the scanning process. I find getting things scanned is meaningful by itself, and i dont see the need to comingle my handwritten notes with my digital notes. shortcuts used whenever i want both types of things in the same folder
I think you are spot on and it's IMO unfortunate that John overreaches wrt. the benefits of posit as it distracts from the actual major advantages:

* A much more consistent and sane floating point (most arithmetic rules _do_ apply for posits unlike for IEEE Std 754 and you never round to infinity).

* Much greater range and precision for the same bits.

posit32 falls somewhere between floats and double in precision and the hardware implementation will reflect this (which isn't a bad thing given the much higher space efficiency).

I'm not sure about the quire as it looks expensive to me, but I haven't tried implementing it. However what it does provide is pretty remarkable: zero rounding errors for reasonable sized dot-products (IIRC < 2^32 elements).
I do that all the time. And I just [1] did the reverse: I tried to track why a bugfix wasn't working, only to realize my user was running a version that predated the fix. D'oh.

As an experienced social media manager and virtual administrator I am hoping to break into entry SDR/BDR/inside sales role. I have been working as a SMM/VA assisting business owners and founders involved in real estate, property management, fintech, edtech etc industries. Working as a social media manager I have assisted with lead generation and referral hunting from social media while also helping out with outreach so, I am looking to level up to a inside sales role.
This is great. However, isn't it missing battery replacement? Or is that not an issue for the first 200k miles?

3, Forwarding calls to scam providers.

4, Letting packages be stolen and cancelling the accounts of legitimate users.

5, Displaying goods that are completely fake, including books.

Just what I have on the top of my head. I have not used Amazon in the US for 6 years now due to these. I had used it for almost everything before.
An oberlin student used a fake ID to buy wine, then shoplifted.
Son of owner caught them.
Oberlin then called the store "racist".
Oberlin administrators handed out flyers and stacks of flyers to students (including dean of students).
Another college admin said. "I hope we rain fire and brimstone on that store".
A professor objected to oberlins approach
Admin says "F-him. I'd say unleash the students..."

Then oberlin worked with suppliers to block them from buying from bakery.

And the list goes on...
The SC quality issues were so severe, some customers were rejecting product created there.

There's significant advantages to having a 3" thick laptop, in particular is you get 1mm (or more) of key travel; modern Thinkpads have 0.7mm travel due to their slim design. The other is air flow, you can push a substantial amount of cooling air through the case for the same amount fan noise.
Also another thing is that someone's circumstances play decently into their work ethic and their team pose - I have seen people play out poorly at one company and then excel at another - at this point unless the person is actively harmful I try to avoid too much overthinking of the whys they dont fit in a job.
Work can be really enjoyable if you have more power to control how your time is spent. No one has complete control of how their time is spent, but that is true of life. If you aren't working you are still going to need to structure your time around activities like hobbies. At this point in my life work is one of my favorite hobbies.

> starter is too weak to crank the clutch-transmission input shaft assembly with any success

[giggle]
This reminds me of putting my Toyota 4x4 (Hilux) in 4-Low, First gear, pressing the Clutch Start Cancel switch and turning the ignition key, making it an electric vehicle for a few seconds. The starter was powerful enough to move the truck uphill in that gear on its own until the engine started.
Energy is a good signal. Patience is a good signal. Spotting talent is hard!

I would say that energy is an X factor. If you have two candidates and both demonstrate similar system comprehension, go with the one with more energy.

Energy is great for short term success, contemplation is great for long term progress. Maybe hire a mix of tactical and strategic thinkers? And then get them to work together somehow? It's easy to say and hard to do!

Writing about failure is easy, because you get to do it after the fact when everything is obvious.

Writing about your own successes is fun, because you get to talk about something that turned out well.

Trying to tell someone else how to be successful by following what you did is often a fool's errand, because you can never convey all the things you did to be successful; and in the case that you were VERY successful, you have changed the marketplace of products and ideas!
You can have lexicographic ordering with [x]it!, as long as you stick to a specific structure, which is:

- Write due dates first

- Pad your priority with dots

- Don’t use line breaks within descriptions

- Don’t use titles

Then it will sort (in that order) by: item status, priority, due date.

If you believe AC cannot be, at the same time, steady current, you are in for many more surprises. If you think your cell phone antenna picks up signals by some sort of "heating effect", you are in for many more surprises.

In fact all varying E-M fields induce electrical currents where they are absorbed. The effects of those electrical currents vary in myriad ways, depending both on the currents and on where they are absorbed. In living matter the currents are carried by motion of ions in solution. Not coincidentally, life is conducted largely by motion of ions in solution.
control-left / control-right should get you the same behavior _inside_ of words in applications like Xcode, which often deal with CamelCaseCompoundSymbols.
I don't see any problem with an INTEL on-cpu-die random number generator based on Johnson noise. What level of concern would someone have to have to NOT trust that?

If it's even remotely an issue there are dedicated hardware sources in various form-factors like PCIE or USB. They're pricey but at least you can vet what your getting if that matters so much.

Are there any real-world accounts of people getting pwned because of a bad pseudo rng?

> Absolutely, their customer support is stellar, across countries.

What? You're the first person I've heard say this. It's certainly not my experience.

For example, I tried to get a subscription to a soccer magazine for a young relative's birthday. They took the order and then apparently did nothing with it. I contacted them at least a half-dozen times over the following year and received a litany of excuses, promises of callback, and transfers to other people. Eventually, the order was quietly canceled.

The one thing they've been good at for me is basic returns. But if I've ever needed to contact them for anything complex or unusual, they've been painfully clueless.

The article points out that it is hard to start a brand for any beverage and cites competition from Coca Cola and Pepsi. But to me the big thing is you can go to Aldi, Costco, or literally any store that sells soda and also find La Croix or Belle Vie in massive stacks, even on end-caps sometimes. And there's "hard selzer" versions of this stuff.

I'll drink any brand that has "watermelon" flavor.

Article also misspells "Bubly".
Good to see there other vintage cars, dare I say, lovers out there that see things that way. Mine is a 1982 Range Rover, bought like almost 4 years ago before people started to ask absurd prices for those.

It's leaking oil from the oil cooler thermostat, the gearbox and started a while ago leaking from the transmission break. Oh, and the rear diff pinion is leaking, too. The 3.5 l V8, basically a Buick 215 allumium small block running on dual carbs, needs some gentle treatment before firing up. It usually does, a slight carb rebuild and calibrating really helped. The gearbox is more suited to a tractor and has all of four gears. The rear windows don't work and the upper tailgate doesn't close on its lock but uses two outside locks on each side.

It is rust free so, noise levels are acceptable below 110 km/h and she's a beast off road. Yes, I drive her in the intended environment, regularly.

I have hopes to get her finally done in the next 1, 2 years. And I love this rolling restauration thing. Only was close to selling her once, until I figured out I reassembled the choke wrong and drove fuel consumption up to 30 l per 100 km.
Status is a temporal, worldly thing.

Among the better ways to "win" this game is to seek status in the metaphysical. In a way, this is "winning" through "not playing".

By some measures, I'm doing OK at it, if money is the scoring basis.

OTOH, I've lived with the same house/car/wardrobe for a couple of decades.

Do these oligarchs/celebrities really have more joy than I?

Maybe.
The population born in 1935-1950 is walking around the population of the people that did grow up with tech though. Their exposure is almost a certainty because cell towers didn't exist before 1979 in Japan. Now they're basically ubiquitous and unlike cell phones of the 80s which only transmitted when you were making a call, modern cell phones are constantly transmitting to maintain internet connection.

Rates of brain cancer before and after the 80s and 90s should've shown some sort of statistically significant spike in brain tumors if cell phones were an issue but it didn't because they're not. 800-2000MHz seems like a lot but radiation doesn't cause ionization until you get to the 2400 terahertz range. There's literally no mechanism known to PHYSICS that would result in cell phone radiation causing brain tumors.
What fair or unfair advantages? Nobody is toxically gaslighting you. Just pointing out that your assertions are fact free xenophobia.
Way to completely miss the point. The fact is that a "currency" that isn't usable as currency isn't a currency. If I can't go about my day using it, it's simply not useful, and currency ultimately derives its value from its utility.
it’s for programmers but comes with matlab code and excel sheets
But it's a pain to write out assembly, so we go via LLVM and SSA.

In SSA, rather than modelling your program using 16 mutable registers (imperative folk love talking about "the real world" or "real computer"), we use an infinite number of immutable registers.

Infinite registers won't fit in a computer (we only have 16), and not being able to overwrite registers must kill performance right?
> When a company had hundreds of millions of dollars in dead-weight over head for years and years, sooner or later, there will be consequences. This is like fundamental laws of physics that cannot be violated.

Most large companies have massive amounts of dividends being siphoned off from the workers who created the wealth, to heirs who are stockholders. Talk about dead weight.
There isn't actually that much that a frontend author can do to tune it beyond exposing the right invariants.
