Hubbub - London or surroundings - Full time

Hubbub is saving independent food shops by letting people order online when they can't get to the shops themselves. We mask the complexity of ordering from lots of separate shops and allow customers to place a single order online and receive all their weekly shopping in one go. It's good for the shops because it lets them reach a wider audience, and it's good for our busy customers because it allows them to support their local community.

We're looking for two developers, who will double the size of our current team, to work on our Rails based website and supporting applications. Ruby experience is a plus, but we're very happy to take on people without direct experience if they know how to learn - our second developer hadn't written any Ruby before starting with us. More details, including how to apply, are at http://developers.hubbub.co.uk/
Lets ride with that idea. The problem is that the info about functional programming show how maginificient it is for math-alike problems but barely never for crud-alike problems. I can understand some of the genius of haskell, but can't see how it make a better django or ruby on rails.

CRUD's apps have the stigma of be "patetic simple projects". Are not! Building erp-like software is dam damm hard. Making a search engine? Where clever math solve it? Where well understood ideas of scalability are clear? NOTHING against the complexity of fly at the speed of a business, deadlines measured not in months, but HOURS. Underfunded, not enough staff, working on legacy code, and that is only the surface.

Building a language to truly be a MASTER of CRUDs apps is something I truly wish for (the most close thing was Foxpro, IMHO).

Despite my love for python, and what I know for my use of .net, ruby, obj-c, I don't think is something well solve yet

The resounding success of Steam sales, the Humble Indie Bundle, etc. shows pretty convincingly that most gamers are quite price-sensitive. In general, the people who choose to pay for content out of the goodness of their heart, rather than because it's required or because it's less convenient to get it for free, are decidedly in the minority.
I think it's worth learning about big O and the basics on certain data structures. They will generally help you on most projects.

The basic statistical information is pretty useful too, even outside of programming. Knowing how to test something properly or how to create meaningful benchmarks is a valuable tool to have in your developer tool belt.
I don't find it that hard to maintain forks with git, even ones in which thousands of lines of code have been changed locally.

My usual reason for having a fork is Solaris support, or removing code which I don't need for performance reasons, or replacing the CMake build system with something sane. These aren't the kinds of changes which many maintainers are willing to accept.

Another frustratingly common case is that the original maintainer has gone AWOL and I need to fix a few bugs and maybe add a couple of features, but I do not want to become the de facto maintainer of a public fork.

Microsoft's Future Vision: Live, Work, Play
Unlike fogus, I am trying to glorify writing by hand in some contexts at least. (The proviso is important: I don't think that writing by hand is always better.)

I believe that writing by hand helps me to think better and write better, precisely because it's slower. (There's probably also something about me liking the specific physical feedback, but I would be the first to admit that's probably idiosyncratic and learned rather than universal.)

As for all the virtues of typed text that you mention, I agree. If you look at my process from above, I typed up what I had handwritten earlier. But even though this means some obvious duplication of effort, the net outcome was worth it for me (and still is).

No doubt people vary and all that, but I think writing by hand is vastly underrated nowadays. I stand by that.

San Francisco, CA - Full Time - Developers

Plaid is building the missing API for Spending Data - we make it simple for any application to link with the data generated by credit card transactions.

We're a small, all engineering team - looking to bring on more ambitious, fun team members. Our stack is made up of Node, Hadoop and Hive with Mongo and Redis. We're looking for experienced generalists, and prefer fast learners to specific experience with our stack.

Company: Skimlinks http://skimlinks.com/careers

Positions:
Front-End Developer - Backbone.js, require.js, Highcharts, SASS.
Lead Web App Development Tester (QA)

What it’s like to work at Skimlinks:

- Big screens and fast computers (Linux, OSX or PC, up to you)

- Sociable company - Friday drinks and regular team lunches

- Office right on Old Street roundabout - more hipster coffeeshops that you could possibly need

- Unix platform on AWS

- Standups and a lightweight process

- Testing and Jenkins CI

- QA team - ever had someone on your team to whose job it is to double check your end product and catch any errors before release? It's good.

- A product team that understands why you might want to spend a sprint refactoring

- Hackdays, big data access on what millions of people are clicking on and buying (16 Billion API Requests last month)

- Open minded about trying new tools and technologies (((any ClosureScript) fans out there)?)

About the company:

Skimlinks is one of the most well-known UK-originated startups in the internet space, founded in London in 2007 and now with offices in San Francisco and New York. We have been described by Techcrunch as one of London's leading startups, and voted in the top 10 of the Guardian Tech Media Invest.

Skimlinks offers blogs, forums and websites the ability to earn an income from their content, by paying them a commission if readers click through and make an online purchase.
We consider ourselves a company that sells innovations, and in the last few years we have conceived and built a range of unique, compelling products that have shaken up the online monetization space.

But should that control extend to the right to make further copies? If you say yes, then you've effectively eliminated the creator's control over their work, since copies are effectively free to distribute. If you say no, then you're stuck with a policy that there's no practical way to enforce.
At $work we use EWay and have been pretty happy with them as far as I know. Their API looks decent (it was integrated way before my time) and it just works. No idea about the costs though.
Ask HN: Integrating with third party services?
We put together a brief survey to help understand what factors developers weigh when considering what choice to make for a third-party service. (I'm a developer myself, so I wanted to validate some of my assumptions about what people do or don't prefer.)

Link:

I'll post the results and raw data of the survey back to HN in one week from now, on Friday, March 8th, 2013.
If it is any indicator, current versions of FreeBSD and some Linux distros have "xz" as part of the base system, along with their gzip and bzip2 counterparts, including xzcat/xzless/etc., newsyslog/logrotate compression options for xz, xz-compressed tarballs for source distributions (tar.xz / txz), as well as binary packages for FreeBSD compressed with the format.

LZMA compression has gained a lot of traction over the past few years.

His uncopyrighted books are basically marketing for his paid courses, so yeah, getting rid of copyright can work well in such a scenario where you just want to reach a big audience.

For more niche books with only a small and professional audience i dont think it would work.
Back in the day, you could buy netscape for about $30. Or you could get it for free- legitimately. The paid offering did not last long. When you legitimise "piracy" (not a good word, but you know what I mean), you can bet the price will approach zero.

That makes more sense to me now. I lump that all together in 'product' whereas vision is more about where a company is going and what philosophy is driving it (if you get my meaning).

It is possible to have customers who purchase based on vision/direction but this pretty much the defining characteristic of 'innovators' [1], who are willing to take risks on unfinished or poorly supported products.

Two Sigma (SoHo, NYC) - Full Time, Intern, H1B

Did you know there's a company based in Soho that has enough technology to be considered among the world's Top 250 supercomputing sites? One that imports over 5TB of data every single day, and has alumni from Google, Intel, and Microsoft?

You might think I'm talking about some stealth-mode startup, but I'm talking about where I work: Two Sigma Investments. At our core, we're a technology company applying our talents to the domain of finance. We've created a system that combines artificial intelligence and keen human insight — a system that's constantly improving and advancing.
We're looking for a diverse set of technologists to join our team. Our challenges require mastery of areas such as kernel level development, machine learning, and distributed systems. Our team includes a Unix Lifetime Achievement winner, Putnam medalists, ACM Programming competition finalists, and International Mathematics Olympiad medalists. We are proud of our individual pedigrees, but even prouder of our teamwork.

We tend to hire people with at least a bachelor’s degree in a technical or quantitative field and experience with C or languages that target the JVM, but we are open-minded in our search for critical thinkers who are passionate about technology. We analyze the data-rich domain of finance, but financial experience is not a requirement. We hope to hear from you!

It sounds like you're overlooking the fact that software could do this without your knowledge.
This is exactly the pain my advice helps you avoid. The implicit cost of creating a fork is that future changes higher up the chain could either cause you to be stuck at this revision or give you an additional bulk of work in order to update. Of course anyone can update and run a custom build for their project, but the cost is often not worth it.

It should be noted that the situation where you intend to fork and maintain the project, this does not apply, and by all means make your changes. In the case where you intend to update, this pattern will help you avoid the pain.
