Shopify App | $60k part-time (20hr/wk) | Remote (PST ±5) | Fullstack, Rails and React.JS (Polaris)

Please email: emcmanus+whoshiringoct22@gmail.com

I’m a programmer, starting a new project on Shopify – looking to hire someone, FT for the first month, then part-time at $60k/yr USD, remote. You’ll be leading development and working directly alongside myself. The role is a good fit for anyone looking to work on their own side projects while building runway.

About me, I’m technical, I founded a YC company in 2011 (Yardsale/FOBO), raised $2.6m, acquired in 2015, worked on HBO Silicon Valley as lead tech advisor, built a bunch of micro-SaaS apps that have grossed $1m+. More than happy to share everything I've learned!
> Linus T. failed to resist rust

Yeah, no way Linus would judge something on its own merits. Must be a failed saving throw.
I see more and more people getting into this mindset. They want a little more openness than what Apple provides, but they want a little more structure and direction than Android.

I really do wonder what would happen if Microsoft made a fork of Android with a replacement for Google Play Services (maybe something that emulated many of the APIs, putting Google in an ironic situation to say that its APIs are protected under copyright law)

This is quite amusing. Unless the battery has some cliff where it stops working (very unlikely) my anecdotal experience is that the battery has a very slow degradation rate (2-3% over 5 years - great considering I have a 75mi roundtrip commute).

On the other hand, I don't pay for: oil/fluid changes, filter replacements, transmission/engine rebuilds or smog checks. Probably forgetting a half dozen other things too.

Add all that up and it's a free battery replacement in 10 years which I don't even think I'll need.

> I have yet to see a firmware that doesn't allow me to enroll private keys.

I have computers that don't have this feature.

> When you control the keys, SecureBoot is a good thing at least as good as encryption!

I agree. It's all about who owns the keys to the machine. If we do, then it's all good.
> You can prevent some mental health conditions by caring properly for the mother,

By that definition, cancer is preventable. Actually, nearly every possible cause of death is preventable if you're definition is "doing something might reduce risk factors".

That's not the normal usage of "preventable death".
I mean, this is a lie. Both in terms of late stage abortion being "business as usual" in USA and in terms of late stage abortion not being done in Europe.

Laws vary between countries, but basically Poland is not Europe. Generally you can get late stage abortion for variety for health issues (abd even social ones). Also, you won't be denied prescribed medicine you need for pregnancy unrelated condition just because you are woman and it might also end pregnancy.

Also, there is no ban on talking about abortion.

> In counterpoint, a recent 60 Minutes piece on Paul MacCartney showed him playing an impromptu concert in his local pub. While playing one of his old hits – I can't recall which one – he suddenly started to stumble and couldn't remember the lyrics. Fortunately the audience was signing along and knew every word.

I'm sure that the 80-year old Paul McCartney deserves a free pass when he misses a line or two from an impromptu song.
If we're going that route, I think it's more likely we'll see clinical outcomes with therupeutic use of psilosybin or MDMA.

I don't think it is so much that the brain needs to be tweaked, but that experiencing self, other, and world in a different ways can transform those in a way that does not require ongoing medication.

I don't necessarily believe it would be impossible to reciprocate, but that there would be an atypical representation of love and needs disparate to what culture has inculcated (which itself leads to many misapprehensions).

Depending on the literature chosen, SzPDs can have "lively internal states" and be "exquisitely sensitive" it's just a question of expressing such things.
Please email me and take my personality test! Please. Y'all are like Bigfoot. You drop a wonderful comment like this and then disappear into the ether.

SPD has the worst outcomes of anything in the DSM. Only someone with SPD could possibly ever see it as the non-broken state, or as not a disorder. You're exactly the type of person I'm talking about. Do you see your vocabulary? Please contact me! I'm a philosopher working on a new model and could really use your point of data.
monopolies seeming to be efficient like that is only true in a limited static analysis. in a dynamic and complex economy, there's great value in the flexibility, ingenuity, resilience, price discovery, and creative restructuring provided by multiple competitors in a given market.
It is trivially simple for an educator(edit: typo) to write a test that every student fails, curve the grades into a normal distribution, and place blame on students while showing a normal distribution of outcomes to administration.

Do you think that practice produces better learning?
It ended up being the right choice, but it's classic yak shaving.
Unfortunately from https://peterxjang.com/blog/ it seems that this has not been updated to reflect advances (like ES6 modules) that make things a bit more sane (for dinosaurs).
Section 230 seems like such a nice compromise. It allows both moderated and unmoderated platforms and everything in between. It lets platforms try different approaches, both to moderation and promotion.

The only people who want to get rid of it seem to be extremists from one side or the other. But I worry we love in an age where the 10% who are loudest and craziest are the only ones being listened to...
There's cheaper devices available in the same form factor as the Meerkats. Intel's NUC11ATKC2 has a recommended retail price of $130, so it's a bit more pricy than a Pi as you'd need to add about another $50 for storage and memory; but it's also a lot more powerful.

So you are comparing the income you get in a country in the EU after taxes that for the most part will pay for healthcare, education, etc and comparing them to the US median income which famously doesn't.

Apparently healthcare in the US is something like $10k per person per year? Seems fair to take that from the US median income so we are comparing apples with apples. Looking at your wikipedia link that would put the US down around 11th... After Belgium, Norway, Austria, etc and that is before we start talking about education.

Look - your point that people in USA have more money is mostly true. But when you add in the extras you have to pay for the difference is not as big as you might think. And none of that explains why pregnancy related deaths are so comparatively high.
I'm not an expert, but I think it's enough to change your premium.
From the article:

> A death is considered preventable if the committee determines that there was at least some chance of the death being averted by one or more reasonable changes to patient, community, provider, facility, and/or systems factors.

This isn't science or even data, it's the opinion of some reviewing doctors.
Or you’d end up with a lot of smaller publishers who can vouch for the content of their community to a single, meta-publisher.

This is basically in-place already, if your subreddit becomes toxic they ban it. And the moderators on each sub aren’t Reddit employees (for the most part).

Facebook has the same thing with groups and pages, individuals moderate it and FB bans it if it goes off the rails.

The logical next step would be trying to hold the page/ community owners legally liable for their content.

This new responsibility would imply ownership of the content, which would mean more ability to directly monetize it and possibly cut out the meta organizer (FB, Reddit, etc) by moving the community to another platform if there’s any friction.

Obviously the platforms don’t want a looser connection with their participants, they want all of the money and none of the responsibilities.
> Java deserves its comeback among the wave of nu-programming we are going through.

What is nu-programming? And why would Java deserve a comeback?
Forcing out a long-time (non-tenured) professor seems a bit extreme, but there are a lot of extreme circumstances:

- Professor Jones is 84 years old (according to his Wikipedia [0])

- Students are recovering from an unprecedented break/rift in their studies b/c of the pandemic

- faculty and administration are still struggling to adapt to the new technology and methods hastily adapted for pandemic education.

My reflexive assumption is that after 2 years of diminished educational experience, students are just unprepared to handle o-chem's traditional rigors. But maybe Professor Jones's instruction ability has also fallen in that time, especially if he's had to do ad hoc adoption of new educational software and processes. And I'm sure the administration is even more out of whack.

It truly sucks that, at least from what the story tells us, we don't have a good idea of where the deficiencies and room for improvement are, and educators are stuck trying to figure it out mid-flight while the academic machine continues to stumble forward.

Yes, this is not so surprising. I remember songs I heard in my infancy and never again. I also didn't have a record. I guess people find this surprising because they live in an era where you can find any song you want (the already common thought of "how people did this before smart phones...").
Also a reminder that at least a few years ago, the US had the highest maternal mortality rate in the entire OECD against a standardized metric. Like, by a country mile. [1]

> Among 11 developed countries, the United States has the highest maternal mortality rate, a relative undersupply of maternity care providers, and is the only country not to guarantee access to provider home visits or paid parental leave in the postpartum period.

> Women in the U.S. are the most likely to die from complications related to pregnancy or childbirth.

[edit] NPR did a thing on it in 2017 too. [2] In 2015 you were 7X as likely to die as a mother in the US as compared to Finland (and 4X Canada) - and while the rest of the world saw dropping numbers, the US saw accelerating increases. And for every woman who dies in childbirth in the US 70 come close.

These posts are just stupid. Search is for finding what you are looking for. I feel like most of the posts in here think that it should be for browsing content with the word in it. There is nothing to see here.
For sure! One of the hallmarks in how ADHD often presents is also hyperfocus on things they’re particularly interested in, which also exists in non-ADHD folks sometimes of course. Paul was clearly curious about everything, and hyperfocused on a few things (music). Get Back is a great thing to watch to see this in action; his brain flies from idea to idea, until he lands on one he is imminently curious about and then that’s all he talks or thinks about for hours.
You're being downvoted because there is no way in hell that the Republican party will push for restrictions on contraception.

After all, both their politicians and their court nominees insisted that abortion is a long-settled issue, and have not reneged on it the second they had the power to - we can trust them to continue operating in good faith, and in a matter that respects public opinion.
You can self-host and un-federate PeerTube, such that the user isn't even aware they're on a PeerTube instance.

If I had a website where I'd host my videos as an alternative to YouTube, I'd probably go with PeerTube and have people support me by seeding videos for me.
So I've been using this for a couple weeks now on my mobile phone. There's really no reason to do this, other than I'm sitting in a car waiting for my wife to come out of the grocery store and I just feel like writing some some SQL code -- because I can. If you noticed, there's a little keyboard icon at the top of the demo that toggles on a mini keyboard with ^c, ^d and cursor keys. That's because the iPhone doesn't have those keys, and I'd start pinging a server and realize I can't break out of it and now I need to reset the whole emulator. Anyhow, that's why that little toggle is in there. :)
I feel like cute attempts to explain Raft should come with a huge disclaimer. Although Raft authors claim it is easier to understand, and there are various pop explanations of Raft which make it seem easy to understand, in studies Raft and Paxos understanding among students is about the same, with the great majority of students failing to understand either one. Importantly, students who say subjectively Raft is easier to understand than Paxos are less likely to understand Raft than students who say they are equally hard.
I understand your point, but there's a difference between ads targeting specific audiences and ads targeting specific individuals.
That's a bizarre take, although perhaps it is true. That WIC system is bloated and cost more because welfare opponents want it to be bloated? Is that anything more than a talking point -- I mean is there real evidence that anti-welfare people are voting in meaningful way to make the WIC program cost more?

Personally I am against violence imposed welfare (taxation based). But I see cash remuneration as a win-win because we could say give $0.50 more out in welfare for every $1.00 of overhead eliminated, and both recipients and the taxpayers would be better off.

Mania is often accompanied by quite a few negative aspects:

- Irrational, grandiose ideas (i.e., delusions)

- Increased susceptibility to believe ideas (e.g., more likely to fall for a spam marketing scheme)

- Hallucinations

- Impulsive and/or risky behaviors

- Easily distracted

- Difficulty sustaining attention

I imagine the parent commenter more likely experiences hypomania associated with bipolar II disorder rather than the mania associated with bipolar I disorder. The former is much less likely to exhibit the listed negative symptoms and general disinhibition tends to be lesser as well.
Don't think I'll get anymore raspberry PIs, until they move to 64bits risc-v.
> that will only help you make good decisions, and will NOT help you produce great code in the new world.

Your code will be clear and, more importantly, you won't need to go back and change it because you took the time and had the knowledge to make good decisions.

Any code you write that interfaces with your old stack will seem uncanny and wizard-like to other devs.
I don't think the author is recommending their experience. He's merely talking about what he did and what happened. We've known for millennia that physical work sucks. That's why the lowest echelons of society always end up doing the worst of it. This, I think, is why previous generations were so emphatic about college education. In their experience, it was a ticket out of doing physically taxing work.
“For me, a lot of my meaning comes from two things. One is doing something in the world that feels like it's actually making things a little better somehow. And so contributing to society in some meaningful way.”

Yes, I read the article.

Ok, let's make it, has he infringed upon the rights of others or caused them material harm, both of which have copious amounts of laws against them? Otherwise it's nothing more than you disagree with him or don't like him for whatever reason.
To add a little colour to this. The resident population of the city is less than 10k - I’d guess around 3-4k in one development the Barbican Centre - but 500k work there. 10k is about one tenth of the population per Member of Parliament in the U.K.

The City of London Police number just over 800.

So the demographics for a ‘city’ are very odd too.
It’s hard for me to assume malice here. I order tea pretty regularly from China and the customs process is a dice roll every time, with random delays / holds / reroutes being common. And that’s for a box full of dry leaves.
Sounds like you are experiencing poorly targeted ads if 99% of yours aren't things you need :)

Question. If your ads were perfectly targeted in that 100% of advertised products were something that you're interested in, is that not ideal? Isn't that what companies like Google and Facebook are trying to do? Wouldn't you be happier if you didn't get the Wellness / Nutrition / Viagra ads?
I work full time on Design Systems for production applications and have for many years.

Check out https://interplayapp.com/ for a different take on how design systems should be created for use in Figma.

I think it’s telling that Figma can’t really do any of this natively and there’s a whole ecosystem of companies surrounding Figma trying to help it actually Do The Job. Zeroheight and Storybook/Chromatic being the other obvious examples.
git code is still plain and simple C with a simple makefile build system.
I'd love to get my hands on one. My first use would be to sort, catalog, and shelve my books.
Most points of plot are hearsay, and Hacker News isn't a court of law.

If I tell you that while working at unnamed multi-national finance company we wrote software used for what I would consider incredibly immoral, but not illegal (in the US) purposes, I don't have any right to be believed, but I also expect most people would believe me, because they know how these things go in real life, oftentimes in their own organizations.
The lure of that sweet, sweet ad money finally takes down the FAANG member that many said would be immune to its charms.

Apple didn't cut Facebook out of the picture for pro-privacy, 'user-centric' reasons. This is the same playbook they used in 2010 when they kneecapped Flash. It wasn't about battery life or viruses then, it was to clear a path for the App Store to be the focal point for app and game development.

Then don't we just take the source code (which we have the legal right to) and make some other Linux?
Linux v3 should be 2.6.40

Also in 2011 firefox went from "slow versioning" (up to version 4) to a new major version number every few months... the unofficial reason was, that chrome was "overtaking" firefox in version numbers, and "higher number == better browser" (chrome went from 9 to 16 that year).

First line at your link:

>Personality is the way of thinking, feeling and behaving that makes a person different from other people.

So tell me how SPD lacks a personality. A person without a personality would be indistinguishable from other people.

If you read the definition of SPD, it doesn't quite satisfy the definition of disorder, nothing there implies distress or problems. Deviations are expected alright, because people are different. Seems to not care? It's not an expectation of the culture that you're entitled to be relevant everywhere, you're relevant only where you earned it, and care about praise is deeply personal.
This is what I felt but could not put it into words. Non-awareness disease is the PERFECT word to describe what I felt reading this.

> How can good content be monetized in a way that allows it to remain independent and not succumb to warping its content to feed that monetization?

IMO, subscriptions. But you have to A) have special content worth paying for, and B) make it easy to cancel and resub.

My local paper failed at B, so I refuse to resubscribe, even though the content is good.

In a crowded space like say, VG reviews, I don't think A is possible.

> The Association of American Publishers put out a statement falsely claiming that the letter ... was actually “disinformation in the Internet Archive case.”

I think that The Association of American Publishers, together with other players, are in the process of re-defining the meaning of English word "disinformation". These days, the word "disinformation" basically means "something you disagree with" or "something you strongly dislike". I wonder if the online dictionaries would be catching up at some point.
