Symphony.fr | JS full-stack lead | Remote (international team) | Full-time | $70k-125k

We automate food, from generating tailor-made recipes to bringing the associated ready-to-eat meals on your table. Think pesto pasta, chili con carne, veggie bowl.

Symphony.fr is a platform that gathers all of the community's recipes, from the popular and the trendy to the niche and those of your friends. You can order any recipe, improve it and iterate, or you can create new ones from scratch, manually or with the help of AIs and algorithms (to optimize for nutritional and gustative constraints, notably). Think of it as programmable food with a Darwinist environment to bring out the most remarkable creations.

We are currently shipping on a weekly basis across the whole of France, but will soon have 24/7 collection points around Europe and beyond. Join the revolution :-).

Role:

- You will join a team of 5 developers as a full-stack developer
- You will then progressively be given the responsibility of managing the issues, which implies:
- understanding the needs
- discussing the solution with UI/UX, marketing and others
- detailing the technical specifications
- guiding and helping the team through the implementation
- reviewing the feature and handling merge and deployment

Requirements:

- You have worked on large Mongo/Node/React projects
- You have strong experience in both back-end and client-side
- You have broad knowledge of how computers, networks, databases and ML/AI work
- You have common sense, understand UX, and like taking initiatives

Bonus: you are game enough to take on this small challenge https://symphony.fr/js-challenge

My favorite has always been scientifically promoted medicinal use of leeches.
I wonder if it becomes a math problem to optimize then, like Euler solving the sum of 1-100 by adding 1 to 100 and multiplying by the 50 pairs of numbers that operation created to get 5050?
I’m certain there is a splash of sarcasm in this comment but so how I agree. This is an enjoyable and refreshing project.

Have you considered widening the definition of 'hyperlink'? For example, using references in text as well. Or also (lightweight) sentiment analysis. For example, I'm sure many people refer to wikipedia all the time, without giving a link. Or Hacker News. This seems like it should represent a "weak link" between those pages. It would probably be worthwhile to use some kind of normalization on pages/domains to avoid spamming to game this system.

I also think it's worth exploring a simple reputation system. Why not have reputable users evaluate results? (approve/disapprove buttons) I think almost any reputation-free system will eventually fail to bots or cost a huge amount to win the tug of war against SEO. Reputation mostly solves the issue.

Speaking of reputation, I think the great insight would be to apply a ranking algorithms to reputations themselves -- if you can't trust your users, you fall back on the same problem.

To rank reputations, clearly PageRank doesn't work because it values all users equally, which is unfortunately not sybil-resistant. I think one approach is to have an "invite system", where your reputation is associated to who invited you, with earlier users having greater weight somehow (also the administrator can manually assign trustworthy users).

This also suggests a way to formulate distributed trust. You can join a "trust network" by trusting a certain user(s), and then you import users who they trust as well. (I believe this is the rough idea behind Web of Trust, although I believe WoT is not algorithmic -- it should have been!) The problem with this approach for a practical search engine is that you can't aggregate results (you would need to store each user's vote and compute a personal ranking every time) -- so I think in practice a useful compromise is to give the user a choice of a few "trust sets". You trust <Public User A> here? Join this trust set. You trust <Public User B>? Join this other trust set. (Combining a small number of trust sets should be trivial)

As for an algorithm, something like:

-- By trusting other users, up to 100*(1-sqrt(N)/N)% [note] of your trust points will be redistributed (diminishing the impact of your choices).

[note] Obs: Formula arbitrary, chosen to approach 100%

-- The total trust conserves, and phenomena like cyclic trust are not a problem due to conservation.

Ex FAANG. Started www.beaver.digital (although these are really out of date now, last one was finished in 2016). Interested in the area where design and code intersect. More info at www.nikkwong.com. I'm a one man shop for creating attractive design oriented solutions to hard digital problems. Interested in small teams where I can work on technologies and skills beyond my current expertise.

Also had a Kickstarter project that I’ve turned into a business I’ve been running for 8 years now. I’m really interested in a founding role or at least a role where I have ownership and a lot of autonomy with interesting things to work on. I'm not so interested in being a staff software engineer unless the project is really cool--like working in the sciences, or for some social good, or something else cutting edge. Thanks for reading!

WW3 will likely make a mess of orbit, particularly LEO. However most of the debris that intersects LEO will decay in the order of years to tens of years. After the war (assuming anybody is in any shape to be sending stuff to space in the first place) I think communication satellites in LEO will become the norm (moreso than it already is becoming.) This would be the obvious response to higher orbits being ruined by debris.

But such a war would be very bad in many ways, and if this happens I don't think worrying about space will be high on your list of personal priorities.
I'm not saying that if you buy an option that ends up OTM that you'll globally lose money, but in the context of that one specific trade you lost. Perhaps you're willing to take that loss in order to achieve some other goal, but my statement was about a single contract, not a general collection of trades.

Is this meaningful or just a deceptive statistic? Are the people who are not adding sugar abstaining because they have diabetes? Because they're trying to lose weight? Do younger demographics have a sweet tooth? Do older generations drink black coffee? Do black coffee people drink more coffee than those who don't like the taste? Et cetera.

'portion of cancer incodence in never-smokers' seems like a bad number to use. Clearly if we completely eliminated smoking, then the number would be 100%.

20% versus 9% women/men... Are men just smoking more?

It all feels like smoke and mirrors to me.

WW3 almost certainly also means no more communications satellites and no more weather satellites, in addition to no more humans in space.

It would likely also mean nuclear winter and many other bad things, but permanently denying use of satellites is likely the first global cost of WW3.
Garmin is vulnerable to disruption by cheap Chinese competitors at the low end of the market. They're now trying to move beyond selling individual devices to build an ecosystem with multiple types of devices connected to online services. And their latest devices are starting to provide something like a little AI fitness coach on your wrist, which is valuable even to ordinary people not into extreme activities. So far the execution is a little clumsy and buggy but the potential is huge.
They are going to try to. Many workers will resist.

I thought it wasn't Ponzi so much as a strategy for attentive management companies to front-run inattentive investors to liquidation. It's the management version of employees walking out of a failing startup with aeron chairs and coffee machines -- so, naturally, a thousand times more damaging and a thousand times less punished.

I use Brainfuck-IDE for my personal projects. It has a great Azure theme that's really easy on the eyes. [1]

When I'm traveling, I use an online IDE, bf-ide. This is great for experimental coding, where there is no IP I need to protect. It is heads and shoulders above all other editors and IDEs - for online or where I need to think on my feet anyway. This really is a superb choice for those times when I'm presenting at a conference, and I really want to demonstrate some code that anyone can try right then. No installation is necessary for Brainfuck here!

WIth bf-ide, I don't even care if there is a web disclosure or if my source code gets leaked. The crooks won't understand it anyway. bf-ide is so intuitive to point-and-click when I want to perform a braindump and execute! [2] [3]

For Mission-Critical and Enterprise Development, absolutely everyone uses Brainfuck Studio. It's great for UML diagrams of the Brain Factory-Factory-Implementation-Factory-Maker-Owner model test code. Then you follow the workflow defined by the team leader who just left for Oracle, and the application should probably get built without too many issues. [4] [5]

And, I'm going to install BrainIDE right now. I'm a BrainFuck aficionado, and I work at a Brainfuck shop, so any tooling advantage I can think of or that someone invents with the sweat of their brow is A-OK in my book!

This comment makes no sense. Folks who love urban density... love urban density. Why would reading a comment from someone who feels differently be important to us? I totally respect the parent comments opinion, but their lived experience differs from mine entirely.

> Quality of life cooped up in a dense urban setting, especially with a family, is awful.

This is unbelievably subjective, and you simply cannot state this as if it's a fact. I have lived in rural, suburban, and dense urban settings, and my quality of life was by far, by far, the highest in the city. Almost every aspect of my life was improved when I moved to a dense urban center.

Urban centers are not simply desirable because of jobs! Many of us simply prefer the lifestyle they afford!
> commute home for 2 hours

That sounds like a nightmare.

> work out for an hour, then jump into your commute and be home in an hour and 45 minutes

Still terrible.

> 1 hour of gym time + you arrive home to take a shower

1h45m of sweaty commute after 1h of gym? I don't think so.
I did the same and I barely function before the sun is up. Got a solid 1-2 hours in doing way better work than the hours spent not half asleep but with the noise.
Was able to do it the other way around a few times and found my late hours were even better, but managers were a little eager to apprehend me for coming in "late".
I mean this is Capitalism 101. The Pandemic provided leverage to Employees and they heavily utilized it (some even abused). Now, the leverage may shift back to employers and they can decide. If enough employees quit, then companies will have no choice. Supply and Demand.

Because coding in Yamllang and Jsonlang is superior to old and archaic languages like Rust and Golang.
My thoughts: Any middle or large company can fire off at least 20% without any negative impact to earnings.
I definitely hope so.
For comparing multiple implementations of a single benchmark in a single language, this sort of data would be interesting as a 2D plot, to see how many lines it takes to improve performance by how much. But for cross-language benchmarking this seems somewhat confounding, as the richness of standard libraries varies between languages (and counting the lines of external dependencies sounds extremely annoying, not only because you have to decide whether to include standard libraries (including libc), you also need to find a way not to penalize those for having many lines devoted to tests).
Indeed, these are very basic stuff, which may be useful for some people's workflow, but then by the time I started remember this website, I'll probably have already memorized the few flags the website profiles anyways.

In my experience, you're just better off searching for what you need, in my experience you'll always find a bunch of results with the exact ffmpeg incantation you need for your specific rare usecase.
It's still using GL instead of Vulkan right?
