Apollo Agriculture | https://www.apolloagriculture.com/team | Full-time | Engineering, Data Warehousing | Amsterdam, Nairobi, or Remote (Similar Timezone)

Apollo Agriculture is bringing modern farming to the worlds poorest farmers. Millions of farmers globally don't have access to the basic farm tools the rest of the world depends on for food production (good seed and fertiliser.) We sell these proven agricultural tools on credit, use ML to figure out who we can lend to profitably, and are growing rapidly (two countries and growing.)
We are looking for multiple engineering roles:

- Android Engineering: Our product is rapidly evolving from being phone, SMS, USSD to Android. We ship multiple android apps, including our app for field agents which serves 5000 field agent partners working directly with our customers. (We like modern tools, Kotlin, Jetpack-Compose etc. We do support very old versions of Android, our customers aren’t on Samsung Galaxy 22’s)

- Devops/SRE: Our head of engineering and I have primarily done most of the devops/sre work. We know we need to build out this team to keep scaling our engineering team. (We’re on AWS, we’ve kept a minimal but functional Ansible toolchain. We’re flexible on exact tooling but have started using Pulumi for some of our IaC work.)

- DataOps / Data Engineering: We have a small excellent BI & Data Engineering team, and we’re building a next generation of our data warehouse and data pipeline.

To apply, send me an email at earl@apolloagriculture.com – I’m the CTO and happy to chat.
> Neighbours may be another thing, but it is independent from size of the house/apartment ...

I don't think it is. The millions of Japanese living in 300 square feet spaces next to each other wall-to-wall would not be a possible situation without a level of civility that simply does not exist in the West, where even people on farms next to each other seem to clash for one reason or another, never mind in apartment buildings.
I remember seeing that on Bill Nye.

It lets you create materialized views that are automatically updated in an incremental way as underlying data changes, without recomputing the whole query. Previously they supported running those queries on Postgres/Kafka, now they've added their own persistence layer and horizontal scalability.
Companies using Onfido [0], Stripe Identity[1] or other similar services, just want to move the "trust/fraud" problem one layer away without throwing internal resources at it.

It is a hard problem, and using a 3rd party service is more cost effective than staffing a department to do manual verification.

Looks really nice, but I'm really curious about what hurdles you encountered in making a native WASM version of Postgres. It seems that both the performance and binary size suffer immensely from the VM running underneath. For example, if I compare to DuckDB-WASM [1] there is an immense difference in load time and query execution speed.

Are there future plans at creating a native WASM version of Postgres? Making it run many times faster would certainly open up a lot more use cases.

(Disclaimer: I work on DuckDB, but have not worked on the WASM version myself)

I don't know. It is pretty easy to find these channels. And the channel I followed has been there since I joined. My feeling is that Telegram does not enforce any standard or legal measure is the reason people use it freely and safely. It is also hard to enforce I think.

> I think the best content is going to continue to be entirely community run Wikis.

The challenge here is that Fandom own a near monopoly on videogame wikis. Competing with them is exceptionally difficult.

It's something myself and a few other folks have done when we forked the Path of Exile wiki from Fandom to poewiki.net, we've been officially recognised by the game creators, have acquired hundreds of thousands of legitimate backlinks and yet Google still prefer to serve Fandom pages instead of ours.
But why is it relevant that PostGIS runs inside the browser?

I think almost everyone deploying ML solutions now is using pretrained models. Sometimes there's some fine tuning (especially on image tasks) but it's pretty rare for a ML pipeline to exist without at least starting with existing models.

> “After all, who cares if big brands waste their money showing ads to bots?”

I'm not so sure this affects only big brands.

I've experienced that in march 2020. I ran ads in a very popular platform and was fairly happy about the results -- modest, but steady.

When the pandemics hit, my target-market shifted their focus away from my sort of product, and such shift happened almost overnight. Since I used to get a reasonable amount of real visitors, I thought "well, I believe the clicks on my ads will decrease sharply now".

Guess what? I kept getting the same amount of clicks on average, and my budget of course kept burning at the same rate. The only difference was that the "visits" started to last only a few seconds, the pages were not scrolled anymore, and the "visitors" never sent an inquiry.
Nah I think Supabase will do well. Meteor also did well all things considered. My point is really that they are revisiting all the same technology and product decisions and coming to the same conclusions.

There's only one way to architect a PaaS. Next.js and Vercel's offerings are, essentially, also the same.

The real risk is having one person build it all. They have a team but not really. Personally I believe that's a good risk to take.

But I think it will take a powerful psychological toll to operate this way, having to pretend to have a team (because investors like teams and not solo founders), having to pretend this isn't Meteor (because investors don't like being reminded of "losers"), etc. etc.

Like downvote random Internet comments all you want, but actually I think it's a great idea to have one person do "Better Meteor," it's not my fault investors don't.
Supabase developer here. I've tried compiling directly to WASM, but it did not go well. As I recall, there were features used by PostgreSQL that WASM didn't support yet. This is definitely something we'll revisit though, especially as WASM matures!

Some of those opinions in that article are frustrating to read. I cant believe that test strips are illegal. Some parts of america are so backward.

We really just need to get going with legalizing and making safe drugs accessible. I don't know why it isn't obvious how much of a mess this is.

The test strips aren't even great. Better then nothing but if weed is really getting contaminated you cant even test that. Unless there's ways of testing lately don't require putting the whole thing in water?
SEEKING WORK | Location: Romania | Remote Only

Hi! I'm Mihai, a Senior iOS Developer with a 9 year experience in the field. I'm a passionate developer, a fan of clean, well-tested code. Providing iOS development services.

Stack: iOS Development, Swift, Objective-C, UIKit, SwiftUI, CI/CD, Unit, UI, Snapshot Testing

LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mihaiandreirustiuc/

Email: mihai.rustiuc[at]protonmail.com

Rate: hourly 70-80$

I have experience with different company sizes, having worked with anything from individual clients, startups, to multi-continent companies - mostly US based. I am an involved individual and I like to take initiative in my work. I like to actively participate in the product development, from both a technical and feature perspective. In case of longer term engagements, I am able to also take managerial or team lead positions, having successfully done that in my latest contract.
like the taxonomy of the 3 fundamentally different types of business - tech product vs non-tech product with tech dept vs professional services - and how this impacts the type of employee experience you are likely to have as an engineer. The fact that we are not shown these distinctions prior to entry leads to a mass misallocation of resources, a lot of unhappy employees and performance management issues for the respective employers.
I love Iced (I have tried multiple other Rust GUI frameworks) but it is nowhere near production quality - the API changes often and documentation/ guides are almost non-existent. At least this was the case two months ago, not sure if something has changed after that.
In Norway, they had what looked like old fashioned parking meters outside apartment buildings. What it was a combination parking meter and electric charging meter... So you could park overnight and charge on the street... And get charged for parking at the same time!
There's definitely some chargers, but the issue ends up being that you need a lot more chargers per mile than you do gas stations in rural areas, assuming you don't have a robust planning/reservation system.

You can easily fill a gas tank with 100+ miles worth of gas in just a couple minutes. Recharging an EV locks up a spot at a charger for a fair bit longer, even if you don't charge to full.

Driving through remote West Virginia earlier this year, I stopped at a couple 2-pump gas stations that were doing fine business because they were the only station on the highway for 50 miles or such. You probably couldn't get away with just having 2 EV stations.
>Blockchains are entirely unable to help with this problem

You can implement an escrow smart contract where a trusted third party controls when the money is released to the seller or refunded to the buyer.
> especially if you have significant access to free charging.

and if you don't? Because your apartment building doesn't offer it, and low-wage jobs are less likely to include it as a perk..

and OMG, the US tied health insurance to jobs and what a clusterfuck that is, so severely limiting entrepreneurship, now we want to tie "ability to charge your car" to employment? Can't quit your job because you don't have a charger at home and public ones are rare/expensive??
IMHO the prime use case for all these WASM stuff is going to be platform independence. Web browsers are not that interesting because for regular use they already have ballooning resource use issues and making web apps even more resource intensive is not exactly inspiring, HOWEVER the web technologies are the only true multi-platform solution we have and it makes sense to use it to make everything with it and everything instantly becomes multi-platform.

What I suspect may happen is, the rise of web browsers of a 3rd kind where these are not really for browsing the web but running code written for native domains. So instead of browsing web of linked text, we can have a web of algorithms to process data and requests.
Right, as with almost all problems related to the housing crisis, the issue would be solved by building more units.
Ukraine is not a member of NATO, and NATO armies moving into Ukraine is way too dangerous (nuclear escalation), so it is quite unlikely.

That said, if I were a member of wagner PMC, whatever is my location in the world, I would get the first flight to russia...
I don't mean to take anything away from this post - its quite amazing and I can't wait to play with it more - but wanted to mention that there are sites out there that I believe solve the training portion maybe a little bit better, at least if all you want is to train on SQL not DBA type actions. My favorite is https://dbfiddle.uk/ - the ability to link and fork a set of statements is extremely handy.
Agree. And this is yet another proof that lots of meanningless jobs exist!

SEEKING WORK | Brazil (UTC -3; overlaps with US and Europe) | REMOTE | Part-time or Full-time

I'm a problem solver. I learn quickly and use whatever tech is necessary.

Finished my PhD in CS by the end of 2021.

Worked on software which is currently used by the Federal Police of Brazil to manage 95% of their police inquiries for a combined total of 3.5 years.

Passionate about computers since I was a kid. Studying and working in CS full time since 2009.

I enjoy producing high quality and high value software that follows best practices (e.g. CI/CD, Clean code, Testing, SCM, Reviews, Joel Test, ... )

So that you can hire me confidently for a remote position, I am open to chats, technical interviews, algorithm challenges, take-home coding exercises, trial periods, etc. Whatever it takes to ensure this is a good fit for both of us.

Rates: 30 to 49 USD / hour (enjoy low rates while I build international remote experience :) )
We don't actually care about people. We still can't figure out how to stop prosecuting people for crimes who are sharing their own drugs with people who overdose. We are actively disincentivizing people who are watching other people overdose from calling emergency services.

Imagine that you're with a friend or loved one who is overdosing, when you might not be that far yourself from overdosing, and choosing whether to let them die there and cover up all evidence that you were in the room, or spend 10 years in prison if you take them to the hospital and they still die. The worse off they look, the less sensible it is to call for help. It's a sick society.

Looking at median incomes, most of the Black and Latino population can't afford EVs anyway, so the inclusion of equity here looks a bit disingenuous. It kind of undermines the entire premise of the article because people struggling to find housing are not going to frivolously spend twice as much on a car, even if the upfront price difference levels out for some buyers.
Responsive reasons. Hardly ever can you do full absolute positioning.
How about that 7% is higher than the target, but isn't high enough to warrant demonstrations on the street? Inflation was even higher in the 70s and 80s, yet there wasn't some sort of populist revolution.
When it comes to the "the utterance of intolerant philosophies" Popper suggested that "we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force". Specifically if:

"they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols"

Note that he is not simply claiming the right to suppress speech that directly results in fists or pistols. His argument was that maintaining a tolerant society requires suppressing even the "utterance of intolerant philosophies" that may give rise to that kind of violence.

Are you claiming that there is no content on any social media site used for comments and opinions that advocates for an "intolerant philosophy" of the sort that Popper recommended suppressing?

Or are you claiming that some subset of the philosophies currently being suppressed by social media sites do not rise to this level?
