Stainless | Founding Engineer | NYC or Remote UTC+1 to UTC-7 | Full-time
Stainless is building the platform for high-quality, easy-to-use APIs.

Our first product is SDKs as a service – you send us your OpenAPI spec, and we generate pacakges in all the major languages and publish them to npm/pypi/etc (think `npm install your-company`). These SDKs are world-class: you get an idiomatic wrapper with autocomplete, types, etc. (I built a version of this at Stripe for their SDKs, and am now building a better version for everyone.)

Next, we want to make it easy to build amazing REST APIs. REST is simple and ubiquitous, but right now it’s messy, chaotic, and hard to get right. We’re going to build great open-source standards and tooling that bring the benefits of GraphQL (types, field selection/expansion, standards) and gRPC (types, speed, versioning) to REST.

From there, we plan to build out a rich family of developer platform products – everything an API team would need to deliver a terrific DX to their partners and/or customers.

We’re about 8 months old, around 5 people, have strong revenue, and are selling to companies you interact with every day. We’re backed by Sequoia; founders of Next.js, Prisma, and Segment; and a bunch of (ex-)Stripe employees.

As a founding engineer, you’ll get autonomy to build great products, skilled peers, opportunity for tremendous impact, competitive salary, and a very competitive ownership stake.

We’re looking for exceptionally productive, thoughtful, tasteful, and kind people with a passion for making software development better for everyone. Want to build the future of API tooling? Say hi: alex at stainlessapi.com
A Single Dewdrop: The Pleasures of “Satyajit Ray: Miscellany”

The leaks are separated by almost 4 miles, and 17 hours. A sympathetic explosion seems unlikely.

Ask HN: Good Coding Streamers?
As I find myself drifting further and further away from programming and deeper and deeper into PowerPoint, obscure requirement management software and arcane PDMs I've started to find some joy in watching other people write code on YouTube when I get home from work [1]. A fairly commonly discussed channel here on HN is Andreas Kling's where he's hacking on SerenityOS and its browser [2]. There are number of other channels in the same sphere.

But since I've recently run out of Serenity related material I thought I could ask you guys for recommendations on other channels to watch. Doesn't have to be as ambitious as SerenityOS - anything goes!

>long term effects of putting people on a close chemical cousin of methamphetamine indefinitely
What is your basis for this "concern"? Sure it sounds bad, but there are plenty of chemical compounds with "off by one" differences that have completely different effects.... that's just... chemistry.

Just so you know, (depending on who you read) those with untreated ADHD may live, on average, 10 fewer years than the rest of the population. So if I had to chose between your concerns and 10 better quality years, I know what I'm picking.

> Medical professionals are just speculating at this point when they say it's some kind of neurological disorder rather than just part of the range of physiologically normal brain function.

Where are you getting this from? Any papers? If this is the consensus then I really must not have been paying attention (pun intended)

You seem to have a lot of "observational" experience in a specific setting, but little more knowledge or understanding than the tip of the iceberg "top-5 symptoms". ADHD is an incredibly complex developmental issue. Look at the issues with ADHD and gauging signals from the body, how those affect eating. Look at various issues with sensitivities sensory stimulation. Issues with inhibition and how they permeate behaviours. Reducing ADHD to "focus" is like reducing baseball to throwing a ball around.

Maybe look into some of Dr Russel Barkley's lectures. Some of them are a little dated but mostly accurate.

Wait. Do we know that bicycle training spontaneously morphed or was it a change on the schedule? Was it a grappling match or did grappling occur during the simulated riot? Was the riot training you’ve seen the same protocol used during the incident.

I hate that I’m in the position of defending a possible cover up of a possible murder to cover up the possible rape by police officers. But damn people. Stick to verifiable facts.

I use it more like a dictionary. I don't read it from start to finish, but if I need an algorithm for something, I look it up in Knuth.
Citing individual cases doesn't say anything about what is usual. And you're the one making a claim that cops usually are not held accountable. I'm not trying to convince you that they usually are, I'm just saying that that's what I believe and offering to let you convince me. So no, I don't have to provide any evidence. If you don't want to either fine. But then why are you replying?

edit: looking at this again, I think I misread your point. You're claiming that unless I have evidence that shows that police are usually held accountable, then any evidence that they are not, even anecdotal, should convince me. I would say that's plainly not correct. If I know nothing about whether police are held accountable, a single case demonstrating one not being held accountable does not warrant assuming they usually are not. It only demonstrates that they are not always held accountable and tells me nothing about frequency. Drawing broad inferences from too little data is a pernicious problem in our society. That said, I can find plenty of anecdotes where cops were held accountable. How am I to know which is more typical?
> I pointed out in detail how it matches the fallacy.

I'm sorry, you did nothing of the kind. The only thing that appears to have happened here, as far as I can tell, is your definition of a strawman, and a cherry-picking, uncharitable read of one of my comments.

> Next up: The first step to get out of a whole you have dug yourself into is to stop digging and all that.

This hostility doesn't feel like the start of a productive conversation, so I'll bid you a good day and stop here.
>Yes they were making noise about nato as a pretense to Putin’s imperialism, because concern of nato is a farce.

Are you seriously claiming that Russia didn't care if Ukraine was in NATO?

There are so many public statements from Russia before the invasion, about their red line and demands. Like you said, this was less than a year ago.

I think that's fair - we seem to have a different view of the same situation, which I can respect.
Billing page says AWS for storage, so I'd assume the same for compute.

If they're really doing elastic reads as suggested in another comment I don't think this can be the standard CH server (at least for reads) - or I've missed something very exciting in recent versions.

Odd mentality. You don't want to feel like a freeloader, but don't want to pay the asking price.
tbh it's kind of ridiculous that I need a different dongle for my ipad and my iphone. I know that Apples makes money selling dongles, but that's a crap UX.
As others have responded to you, and like you even said - "fire until there is no further threat" doesn't mean mag dump. However, that is what police do. This is a sign of very poor situational awareness, not "sticking to training." You wonder why others are arguing with you and downvoting you, you're speaking with authority on something, but you're at odds with yourself. You are correct that number of rounds fired is not a good indicator of the "intensity" of a firefight, you are incorrect that this is "normal" or "reasonable" behavior on the part of the police. Continuing to reply to everyone with "it's not a movie, I have training, the rest of you don't" etc doesn't aid your claims, it just makes you sound smug while.. still being wrong.
Honestly, despite everyone's claims of how "beautiful" the books are, I think they are rather terribly formatted.

For example, the first volume consists of 2 "chapters". Each chapter spans about 250 pages on its own. So actually not a chapter, but a section, or maybe even a book in its own right. Then, each chapter is broken into sections and subsections that flow one into the next. There's a fundamental lack of whitespace and breathing room in a book that is supposedly "beautifully formatted".

At the very beginning of the book, there is a flowchart for how you're expected to read the book. It's not linear. It's not even close to linear, even within a specific topic. So why not just format the book in the suggested reading order?

I don't agree that Knuth is a great communicator. He's verbose when he could be succinct. He's taciturn when he should expound. He's prone to flowery language with humorous barbs in his introductions (and they can be quite funny, if you are clued in enough to what he's talking about already), but then spews dense mathematical notation when he gets into details.

So yeah, there's a lot of interesting information in the book, but it's a struggle to read it. Some people will say it's supposed to be a struggle, it's meant to make you work. Why? Programming is already hard on its own. Why make the act of reading about programming hard, too? I think, for the amount of effort being put into them, they could have been written more clearly. It makes the books feel like they are designed to mark an in-crowd of mathematicians who learned programming rather than to teach people computer science.
I was considering a top-level comment saying something similar, at the risk of being severely downvoted for an opinion contrary to such a popular Hacker News hobby horse (you'll own nothing and be happy), but here you are already at the bottom of the page, so I'm just going to commiserate.

I do happen to still own a few DVD box sets from 15-20 years ago, and I haven't watched a single one in over a decade. I have no clue if they still work. I didn't even have a player for a long time, though my wife finally bought one a few years ago to be able to watch a Twin Peaks boxed set with deleted scenes that were not available in any other medium. As it stands, when I click the option to buy from a streaming service, I understand it doesn't mean it's forever, but I don't care. It just means I'm guessing I'll want to watch it more than once outside of the 48 hour rental window and it's worth the extra five bucks or so to do that. It doesn't mean I'm likely going to want to watch it again decades from now. Maybe it's just that I moved so much when I was younger, but the sheer number of DVDs and CDs I lost or accidentally destroyed over a decades greatly outweights what I have ever lost because a streaming service lost its license. And I'm glad to no longer need the external storage space.
Real question / No trolling: How do you feel about "holiday season" motor car stops? On the surface, it sounds great (reduce drink-driving), until you are an ethnic minority and the police person is discriminatory. Thoughts?

No, please - name cases you're thinking of. I am extremely curious about what you'll cite.

How does it do that in the face of lazy loading, or for languages in which "what functions and classes are loaded in to memory" is not really a thing (e.g. C)?
All these "golden days" internet articles forgot about how predatory the environment was back then with how many websites were serving viruses or popups that would open faster than you can close them. It felt like a minefield. There were good spots of refuge of course but they were almost an if you know you know situation, some websites I would learn about through word of mouth in real life alone. For mainstream non techie folks, the internet was legitimately risky. You'd think you were installing the yahoo toolbar and it would just be malware. "It got a bunch of viruses and got slow" was a common reason to abandon ship and just buy a new PC.

Your argument is not necessarily incorrect, but I do think it's important to understand that this attitude depends a lot on the specific implementation.

In some police departments, there is a requirement that body camera (OBRD, BWC, different departments like to use different terms) footage be uploaded after every call for service or reported incident, officers are audited against this requirement, and missing footage is an infraction subject to suspension without pay. In some departments, there is no policy at all, and no interest in creating one.

The biggest vendor, Axon, has a fairly well-designed system for video management where the auditing system makes it fairly easy to determine whether or not footage exists and why (e.g. cameras log all deletion of footage e.g. due to full storage and report it at the next upload, the management system reports on cameras that have not uploaded for more than two shifts, video once uploaded cannot be deleted until the end of routine retention even if not associated with any incident). This is not to portray Axon as a saint, because there are questions about the auditability of their evidence.com product specifically when it comes to preparation of video footage for court or public release, and this can be a material problem. But it also makes it even more troubling that some departments, district attorneys, etc. make no effort to use the auditability features that exist, or routinely accept sketchy excuses that are not consistent with the audit record.
I think that if the Fed stopped acting in the interests of Congress’s real principals, who are observably not the general electorate, then we would see exactly that. It’s instructive to observe the cases where Congress reliably acts promptly and more or less unanimously. Pare off the procedural stuff and other fluff of course.
> I'd also wager that CPR done by trained first responders falls in the much lower-end percentage of injuries like liver lacerations.

Maybe, maybe not. Considering where human livers are located (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver#/media/File:Liver_01_ani...), any lower rib or sternum fracture probably has a risk of injuring the liver. Professional CPR training might make this less likely, but I'm far from convinced.

Anyway, in the scenario I imagine, the 'first responders' who first did CPR are the cops who just beat this guy up and realized he stopped breathing. Technically trained as first responders, but certainly not level headed paramedics. So maybe CPR only lacerates livers when done incompetently, but maybe the first responders were less than competent.
I know nothing about this sort of stuff, but if this were applied to cars, would there be an increased risk of temporarily blinding other drivers on a sunny day?
> If your software needs perpetual maintenance, that's a good sign that it's probably not that high quality

The problem in a lot of cases is not the software per se, but changing environments. Windows upholds backwards compatibility to a ridiculous degree (you can still run a lot of Win95 era games or business software on Win10), macOS tends to do major overhauls of subsystems every five-ish years that require sometimes substantial changes (e.g. they completely killed off 32-bit app support), but the Linux space is hell.

Anything that needs special kernel modules has no guarantees at all unless the driver is mainlined into the official kernel tree (which can be ridiculously hard to achieve). Userspace is bleh (if you're willing to stick to CLI and statically linking everything sans libc) to horrible (for anything involving GUI or heaven forbid games, or when linking to other libraries dynamically).

The worst of all offenders however is the entire NodeJS environment. The words "backwards compatibility" simply do not exist in that world, so if you want even a chance at keeping up with security updates you have an awful lot of churn work simply because stuff breaks left and right at each "npm update".
Is there a similar project that's written in golang? I love datasette, and this looked promising when I tried it a couple months back. But I am spoiled by golang's staticly linked binaries. I'd love to have a library that I can embed and use it as a makeshift UI over a (sqlite) db
There's a lot of VC blood on the floor that bought us this common standard. Standardization is tough or impossible in a market that is minting unicorns -- we just had to wait for things to cool off before we could agree.

This is one of the gotchas of our current tech world: money drives progress, but that progress is almost always at the expense of cooperation.
> The only threat was from the cops!

We know that now, don't we. Which means your focus should be on how this threat was perceived so incorrectly - not how the threat was ended.

A threat is a term used to describe anything that you perceive (correctly or incorrectly) as an immediate danger to yourself or those around you.

> Are you actually just stupid? Would you like to get shot at 1 time or 107 times?

Clearly you are not interested in learning here... but I'll try again.

The fact that these officers (likely a single officer actually) incorrectly identified this vehicle as a threat is where your energies should be placed. The round count is irrelevant, unless you assume the events of that day could not be avoided?

Given the events happened, 107 rounds is not surprising. Do not use round count like it's some sort of indicator of anything other than the wielder's own uninformed opinions. Just don't do it... focus on what matters instead.
The real worst case scenario is facing a competitor that's much faster than you on implementing new features and testing hypothesis. Using an esoteric language might be one of the leverages that this competitor has against your tight mainstream stack.
Thats the thing, homeopathy is an expensive placebo and not harmless when taken outside the vacuum. The linked papers are often either saying homeopathy is not efficacious or they are homeopathy groups claiming that the filtering of low quality studies are not correct,

ultimately it comes down to belief in magic or greed. but in what is testable, they are expensive placebos often to the exclusion of things that work

It is interesting reading that second paragraph many years later. Most of the things that Steve Yegge brags about that Google "does right" (e.g. how they do recruiting, their engineering "standards", SREs running products rather than the engineers, their cushy offices and benefits packages, etc) now read to me the opposite of the intended way. As in, they read more like a list of reasons why Google slowly declined from being the shining city on the hill to the dysfunctional embarrassment it is today.

Onshore vs. offshore for hiring software devs?
I've got a bootstrapped startup with traction...

Am looking to open a permanent physical office soon and scale up the dev team, but real question:

is there any legitimate reason to stay domestic as if decoupled from any specific location?

when I can just set up shop in Tallinn Estonia or Warsaw and hire 2 eastern european senior for the price of a single mid level dev state-side?

As romantic as the entire team being in SF / NY / London, it just seems like an objectively poor financial decision

esp with a finite burn rate

...and even WITH funding it seems like a waste in terms of spend / quality output?

please tell me I'm missing something here
A friend of mine typed in a BASIC tic tac toe game from a book, circa 1975. This was on a Honeywell 1640 at Northeast Missouri State University.

You could also play 3-D tic tac toe, crash a lunar lander, and play some pest-and-pesticide game. I think those were loaded from card decks that the data center staff surreptitiously copied on visits to other installations.
I agree that we shouldn't take this report to be dispositive. That is, we shouldn't just fling the cops at the training into prison. The issues raised in the article certainly seem suspicious and the thing to do with meaningful suspicions is investigate.

Pretty sure a recession is two quarters of negative growth. Rationalization hamster wheels notwithstanding.
