San Francisco, Lead Python Developer

At Tribal Crossing we work on creating games with deep story lines and engaging characters, something missing from most Facebook games today. Tribal Crossing is looking for a strong software engineer to lead the future development of our backend game engine, refine our custom system for expressing game logic and flow, and develop new games from the planning stage to post-launch.

What we're NOT:

* We're NOT working in a sweatshop making clones of Zynga games

* We're NOT making reskins of Evony, Kingdoms of Camelot, Atlantis, etc

* We're NOT letting metrics rule our lives (Star Wars wasn't created through metrics)

What we ARE:

* We ARE making games that are focused on delivering amazing story lines

* We ARE creating characters that players will care about

* We ARE building tools that will allow allow content creators to do 1 and 2

Why You Should Apply:

* TECHNOLOGY: We embrace cutting edge technology if it saves us time in the long run. Ask us about how we wrote our own DSL that in turn generates code for serializing game data and defining API routes. Or perhaps watch our webinar with Membase about how we are able to support millions of users with NO sysadmin and a tiny team. Bigger doesn't always mean better, if you know how to use the right tools.

* INNOVATION: We have built a wide range of tools and processes that greatly reduce both low level work and endless cross-functional meetings. By making sure team members are unblocked and focused on high value activities, we're able to spend more time on adding innovation to our games.

* IMPACT: We've signed some long term deals with publishers that want to distribute our games on the web and mobile platforms. We are looking for folks that want to join on this initial traction and help take it to the next level. We will be asking for your opinion so be ready to have one.

If that sounds interesting, you should apply here: http://www.tribalcrossing.com/jobs/

They don't bother much. For most these people, who are basically sales and operation guys. They are made believe in their MBA classes that if they have a brand name and atleast one successful product they will never need any technical talent to run the company. And they can sell anything every after with operations tuning they teach them during their MBA classes. And that they can virtually sell anything by marketing, advertising and brand positioning. And that engineers and technical staff is merely a commodity which just needs to be used like raw material to convert it money later.

They are basically in for cashing on pre-IPO gold rush.

For me this is more than sufficient to be cautious before working at any start up again.

If 'Hong Kong' can stand on its own in the ISO list, I really can't see the PRC being insulted by calling 'Taiwan', well, 'Taiwan'.

It seems the dropdown here is just a harmless tech demo based on ISO, but this is such a common mistake. Even the rails/country_select thingie on GitHub has the same trap included.

It's a proper way content-wise but why didn't I get this announcement in my email? Was this sent within a Steam system? If so, it's not enough. I use only Steam now and then.
The grid is only one of its features. I get the most utility out of Bootstrap's prebaked design features that I have to custom code every time I start new projects. From warning/error/success messages to popovers to simple form aesthetics.

When the most primitive iteration of my application already looks great during development when it's just a simple CRUD prototype, I no longer waste mental energy by being distracted by things not lining up, lacking padding, and generally being no-css-yet ugly off the bat.
I think there's a bigger lesson in all of this.. If you want to excel.. Drop the social media and other distractions during work.. Be amazed as work levels peak.. Laugh at how easy it was to achieve that.. And realise that when it comes to news you receive via your twitter and reader and and whatever other things you use, whether you check it every 2 minutes or 8 hours, the echo chambers of the internet ensure you really won't miss much.
Did the company originally agree to keep those employees around through the vesting period? If any of them were critical to the company's success then nobody would be asking them to give up anything.

This also has to do with the audience. Just because an A/B test measured results on a listing of tea products doesn't mean much. Consider how Amazon displays their product: http://i.mking.me/3t3e2E3z2G1Y1X0T2633 I can imagine Amazon has ton a bit of A/B testing...
I've spent the last half hour trying to find my billing information on the Steam site. I just can't find it.

It's great that Steam is letting me know that their database has been hacked. It's not so great when I can't even see if my billing information or credit card number (I obviously only want the last four digits) that Steam currently has on file for me. If I knew which credit card I had used with Steam, I could probably watch out for fraudulent charges. As it stands, there is no way for me to figure out what information I've given to Steam in the past.

Back in the late 90s, when Netscape's email client supported it, I used iframes in email content to display the latest/current state of a complex workflow. We used emails to notify people of some decision they had to make, and needed an obvious way to avoid someone doing the same action twice without having to click around and leave the email client. The iframe would be populated with content from a webserver showing the current state. The first time they opened the email, they were able to take action immediately. If they later opened the same email, it would show the current state with the result of the action. If multiple people could take the same action and got the same email, the email would appear to always show the latest state and it avoided some workflow confusion issues.
It has a small memory footprint which would be great on a mobile device. Also, the entire dev cycle would be much improved. The Java/Dalvik cycle with the emulator is slow.
In Pincusland, contracts are to be disregarded because of, um, you know, merit.

So what about the merit of the people who gave out all those options? What about them?
Yeah, of course. You might be required to give 2 weeks' notice or something and if you're contracted you might be liable for breach of contract but nobody's going to force you to work.

This isn't surprising, not everybody in the game is for building something or for changing the world or for passion.

Someone is here only for the money multiplication factor. Sales, advertising, marketing and your usual MBA subjects are all about that. That is, not to care about what you are selling, but to create an illusion which gives an opportunity to amplify that seed investment. That is the time to cash on and move on.

There's basic underlying usability rules that permeate through everything.

A list design goes hand in hand with complimenting the F average.

You articulated my point better than I could have.

I too guessed and have always believed vertical listings are "more natural" way of consuming information than the grid listings. Grids are too overwhelming to digest any of the information and make a decision. They are probably good to browse sometimes.

I also wanted to say that a common perception that prettier is better is rarely true. Google is a great example and so was Plentyoffish. Utility and usability pretty much make the biggest difference and can make up for lack of pretty design. Infact sometimes pretty design is often not the most usable design.
As a computer vision researcher, I'm not at all convinced that deep learning methods will be "final" in any sense. I know that in the past, neural networks were "final", and then graphical models were "final", and so on.

And while deep learning methods have indeed shown remarkable improvements recently, they're not yet state-of-the-art on the most important/relevant computer vision benchmarks.

I think the title is highly misleading. It's not about busy vs not busy, it's about doing the right thing vs doing something that doesn't matter. The A-group was doing three times more work that matters. And work that doesn't matter doesn't count.

In other words, how is that different from 80/20 principle? Looks like the research is just another confirmation of it.

"The Tea Partiers are high on this idea that the country consists of "water carriers" and "water drinkers" and that society is essentially zero-sum, with cracking down on the "water drinkers" being the only solution to society's problems."

You seem to have confused the Tea Party with the Occupy movement? I mean, both are sort of amorphous and all, but to the extent that they have a distinct identity from each other that would seem to be one of the core such differences, and that's where the Occupy movement shows up, not the Tea Party. It's basically a restatement of the 1%/99% motto.
Fortunately, I have my account registered with a spamtrap email address, a username/password that I have never used elsewhere, and a very low limit credit card. Yeah, I'm glad I know better than to use a debit card.

Guess it pays to be paranoid.

Bzzzt! Wrong treaty! Bzzzt! No idea about European integration!

Schengen is about abolishing borders, it is not at all about freedom of movement (i.e. the right to live and work everywhere).

Making freedom of movement possible is one of the central tasks of the European Union. Its most important goal is to create a common market. Freedom of movement of work is obviously an absolutely necessary pre-condition for a common market.

The European Union is wholly responsible for bringing that freedom of movement to EU member states. That's what the 1993 treaty was (mostly) all about!

There is no freedom of movement between all Schengen countries. I'm German and I definitly can't just go live and work in Switzerland (which is not an EU member) – despite Switzerland being a Schengen member.

And yes, it's true: The EU was founded in 1993. But that's not really the right way of looking at it. Before the EU there was the EEC (European Economic Community), founded in 1958. With the 1993 treaty the structure of the EEC was slightly changed, it was given more power and it was renamed to EU. Yes, there were changes but not really radical ones. For all intents and purposes EU and EEC are one and the same.
Yeah, academia... never was a fan.

A couple gems for life though, the bit about old age stuck out to me. I've learned that from my dad, who attests to having never thought about getting old and now spends lonely nights drinking himself to bed. Pretty depressing but very little anyone can do about it... Just know you're going to get old one day, you're going to die, and then get over it.

To answer your initial question, an early investor is absolutely not in the same situation, because investors do not typically vest their stock over a period of time. They receive it all at once, and there are no future shares that can be withheld from them.

Not to be argumentative, but I'm not quite sure how firing an employee before they vest their stock is in any way similar to canceling an insurance policy.

"It completely ignores the possibility that the behavioral difference might be caused by a difference in ability, rather than the behavior changing the ability."

Exactly why I clicked the comment link. The differences in behavior could also be caused by a difference in psychology between students. e.g. the elite group love what they do and the other group don't. Which could indicate why the other group spread their practice throughout the day - because they're procrastinating all day long.

Schengen is about abolishing border controls, not freedom of movement. Those are two different things. Only EU citizens enjoy freedom of movement. Making freedom of movement possible is indeed on of the main tasks of the EU.

And yes, the European Economic Community was renamed European Union in 1993, for all intents and purposes those two entities are, however, one and the same. The EEC was founded in 1958.

After a quick glance, the examples seem to be duplicating for me. Also, is it really an example? It's more akin to an example usage I suppose, but it shouldn't be that hard to provide a true example right? Just slap a div with the inline css or store an example div column along with the example usage column.
Schengen is about border controls, not freedom of movement.
Hm...well, there are a few ways. What you could do is use an automated crawler with a Y|N function to tell you if it's being tracked. For example, when a user submits a website, your engine would send an automated message to the server and detect how much, if any of the information were stored, and then track it to see how it's used. If you've got the tech to do this, it would eliminate a huge amount of false positives and false negatives that the privacy policy's rhetoric generates. But that's just my suggestion.

The employee does receive all shares earned "at once" on the day that they are earned. If it's for 365 shares vesting after 1 year, then one share is earned each day (assuming no cliff).

Just as there is nothing unfair about an investor selling his/her shares or an employee quitting, there is nothing unfair about an employee being terminated and not getting all of the shares he/she would have gotten if employment had continued. Stupid != unfair.

Sure, you can go down the path of sentimentality and say, "Oh no, an investor who believes in the firm should never sell", or "If you're a good employee you'll be loyal to the end", both are absurd statements. Life is random and sometimes unexpected things (good and bad) happen that make existing arrangements non-optimal.

The problem is the greed on the part of employees who counted the dollars before they vested.

This may harm Zynga's ability to recruit and may harm morale, and if it does Pincus is to blame, and someday we may know whether he made the right decision.
