NYC / New York City - full time

http://www.priceline.com

Priceline is looking for front-end devs. We're rethinking every aspect of the Priceline web and mobile experience.

I just came from a startup and it's a great fit for me because I get many of the things I like about being in an early-stage startup: ability to experiment, learning by doing, casual/fun/collaborative environment (all executive supported/encouraged). And then there are the added benefits of a successful co: great compensation, plenty of resources, brand that will look good on your resume, and lots of traffic to experiment with!

Please go here to learn more: http://jobvite.com/m?3y2OPfwX

I'm a PM but happy to answer questions or point you to a developer to chat. My email is stephen dot daimler at priceline dot com.
I like the open files right in browser aspect. Attachments can be tricky for the non tech saavy.
I you look at the results, it's just matching a sequence of digits. It's not looking at the decimal place at all.
I am a pretty strong introvert, not in the sense that I have a problem socializing with others or even communicating in a leisure/professional setting, but rather that doing so takes a lot of energy. I don't actively seek out opportunities to get up in front of people and be the center of attention. Over the past year I've spoken a lot publicly for moderately lengthy periods -- maybe 45 mins at a time -- and I agree with the sentiment that you just get better/more comfortable with experience. If you feel nervous before you speak you are the norm and not the exception. To quote Jerry Seinfeld: "“According to most studies, people's number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you're better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.”

I prescribe to Malcolm Gladwell's method of preparation [1] in that I write out every single word of my talks beforehand and more-or-less memorize them. It's not my explicit goal to memorize every word, but I go over the words enough that that's essentially what happens. I actually end up memorizing key sentences and phrases more than words. Even moments that I seemingly "ad-lib" to the audience -- jokes, side comments, "random" anecdotes -- are written out beforehand. That way when I'm in the moment I can focus on delivery and not content.

I think the biggest driver to my anxiety of public speaking was the possibility of sounding stupid, but as long as I have the confidence that I've written out a good argument beforehand then that goes out the window. I stick to the script because I know the script will work.

As far as mentality goes, there is no better feeling than looking out into an audience of people and see them staring back at you, listening to every word. No smartphones out and no sleeping, just attention. While I still get a little nervous, it's nowhere near what it once was, and I actually look forward to connecting with those whom I've been invited to speak with. My excitement for that connection has started to trump my nerves.

Clearly I'm not in the camp of "don't prepare and just go wing it, it'll be more natural" because it really opens up the door for panic-induced disaster. And I really hate sitting in a talk that the speaker is clearly unprepared for. It's unprofessional and disrespectful. If people are going to give you the respect of their undivided attention, give them the respect of real preparation.

Cambridge, MA | Cognii | Full-time, Intern, Remote

Cognii is transforming the education through natural language processing technologies. We are a young ed-tech startup creating a leading edge assessment technology to provide automatic assessment of a student's essay-type answers.

Think of MOOCs and how you can play a critical role in making it more acceptable. You will work with the experienced team (Nuance) towards developing the compelling products and services for our customers. If you feel that automatically extracting the meaning from a few words is boring and want the challenge of extracting the meaning from a paragraph, then Cognii would love to talk to you!

We are looking for the following roles:

1. NLP Research Engineer(s)
Background in following areas with a strong commitment to developing practical applications : natural language understanding  - syntactic and semantic analysis  - textual entailment and assessment  - machine learning - large scale data modeling  - textual data generation and filtering  - educational technology experience is a plus

2. Server Development Engineer
Experience with scalable web app server development and deployment  - Server design and configuration  - API design  - C/C++, Java, ruby, octave  - Amazon AWS EC2 - MySQL and NoSQL, - Git  - Capistrano/Chef/Puppet  - Load balance and monitoring

3. Front End Development Engineer
Design and development of front-ends for learning apps on different form factors  - Javascript, jQuery development  - HTML5/CSS3  - iOS, Android development a plus

Please send your CV or queries to jobs@cognii.com
Some older versions of IE don't like protocol-relative, IIRC. Depends on your target platform, and customer-base.
You could do something like:

<script
src="my-copy-of-jquery.1.9.2.js.min"
cannonical-uri="https://jquery.com/jquery.1.9.2.js.min"
hash="SHA1-blablabla"
></script>

With this setup:

1. Old browsers could work as before

2. New browsers could download your resource and cache it with the cannonical-uri and calculated (not declared!) hash as cache key (no dependency on third party CDNs)

3. New browsers could serve this resource from cache if it had downloaded it before with matching cannonical-uri AND hash, disregarding src and host

The hash would make sure that the jquery the user downloaded from whereever would indeed be the same jquery you are serving up.

----

Going back to your original idea, browsers could absolutely come with prepopulated caches for such resources, but they might as well fill these caches on demand.

The important thing in both cases would be to allow shared caching between sites without forcing everybody to agree on which CDN is the most pleasing. Notice that the cannonical-uri is only a name, it is not supposed to be dereferenced.

Lobbying is just a way of telling the government what regulatory environment you think best suits your industry. At the time he was lobbying, the push was for deregulation, which was the right call.

As for why they have become complacent monopolies: that is the nature of telecom (natural monopolies). There is unlimited economics of scale, so the most efficient state is E.G. For Verizon to keep growing until its the only wireless carrier.

Webs - DC (Silver Spring area)

Webs is the rarest of all birds: an actual consumer web company in DC. We don't do contracting, work for the government, or apply for grants. We sell a product to real people that makes them happy and helps them make money.

Webs helps small and micro businesses get online with our in-browser web site builder and Facebook engagement tools. We do the hard technical work so that our customers can easily and beautifully build a site, improve their SEO, increase their site stats, and sell their products online.

We're always looking for excellent developers, whether you're front-end, back-end, or full-stack. You'll get to work with other smart people, have input into the product, contribute to open source, and enjoy our hackathons.

Our front-end is a great new architecture with Backbone, Less, RequireJS, and all the other new hotness. Plus our main product (a WYSIWYG website builder) is interactive enough to actually need these things to provide customer value. Our back-end is a mix of Java, Groovy, Rails and Node, with Oracle and Mongo holding the data.

We have a lot of fun projects coming up. If you're interested, feel free to email me at adam@webs.com and we can see if there's a good fit.
demonstrably false. The major wall street banks have lobbied for arcane regulation for decades. See of all the inclusions at their request into the Dowd-Frank bill, or SarbOx, etc. The federal reserve act of 1913 was the a major step up in regulation of the banking sector, and was primarily pushed by the largest banks at the time. Former lobbyists have stated that their stated strategy is to create barriers to entry in legal compliance costs so smaller competitors can't effectively compete.
I would also point out that on the face of it, Lobbyists aren't evil. They are effectively part of your representation in government and should be well-informed in their special interest.

What is evil is when they are granted inappropriate influence over the legislation, regulation and appropriation.

And that problem pretty much starts with campaign donations but has roots in other areas as well.
Very nice app here. Always have been interested in distraction-free writing apps. And this compares well to the other senior ones.

It is assumed that there are no quantifiable differences between cultures, therefore if the Indo-European male has more material possessions than another group, his gains must be a result of oppression or white privilege. Also white men are un-cool because they can't dance, can't dunk and add no value to our cultural civilization. Or so I'm told.

Let's suppose that there is some sweet spot between generating revenue directly from your site and violating your sense of personal integrity.

How do you get there? A/B testing of course.

Now the questions become:

A) Would you rather spend your time writing, conducting, and analyzing A/B tests or writing another book?

B) Which offers a better opportunity to scale, the website or another book?

Finally, there is nothing wrong with leaving some "meat on the bone" for your readers by not fully monetizing your site. The author reader relationship is intimate, and intimacy requires trust. Rotating ads based on where I've browsed are creepy.

If you go down the advertiser route, it should be direct placement of goods and services you are willing to put your name behind and which you believe are in the interest of your readers.

Good Luck.

Or you could give personal witness of seeing a case that did not make it on the news. But no citation.
