Aidin's mission is to bring transparency to the healthcare system and empower patients with data to make more informed decisions on where they receive care. We're backed by the best institutional investors in both consumer internet http://techcrunch.com/2012/06/15/aidin-seed-round/. Aidin was born out of Blueprint Health (3% acceptance rate), a Techstars affiliated healthcare IT accelerator. We're surrounded by amazing talent as we currently reside in the heart of New York City.

As a software engineer on a small team, you'll touch on every aspect of the technology related to the company. It’s a broad job description and we’re looking for someone who loves being part of a fast-paced, constantly evolving work environment where your opinions and decisions will seriously affect our technical direction. We’re looking for a technology generalist with interest in specializing as necessary - It's more important that you love learning and can adopt new languages/frameworks/APIs very quickly.

There are few companies poised to actually make an impact on people's lives, but Aidin is one of them. Join a team of people committed to leave a lasting impression on a part of healthcare that one day, we too will rely on. We couldn't be any more excited about what we're doing, and so is the tech community!http://techcrunch.com/2012/10/10/meet-the-three-most-fund-ab...

7 out of 9 people in your team wear glasses. Why? I don't know a percentage but isn't that really skewed?
Interesting. I've been looking for such a solution. Just signed up.
Thanks:) I used to use textmate for taking notes.
A question, why do you want a encrypted note? Is it because you also work on public computer?

Me to KP: You keep repeating that she represents all women.

You to me: Odd. KP said the opposite.

Are you trolling? Let me quote KP:

If she [Adria] didn't proclaim to represent us then it wouldn't be a problem to me.

and

She [Adria] said she is speaking for women in tech.

On what planet are these statements the opposite? I quite literally quoted KP's claims verbatim.

And why did you post that random <blockquote>? Was it supposed to prove that Richards said she was speaking for all women? Because in what you quoted, she doesn't actually say that.
The only major difference I see is the search and note sidebar. Which, IMO, is an iOSified improvement over iA's file picker.
Utrecht, The Netherlands - Java/Android Software Engineer

http://www.apptornado.com/jobs

We build the AppBrain app discovery platform, the AppLift app promotion network and a bunch of fun Android apps that have been downloaded tens of millions of times.
We basically have nanobot's. The problem is unlike science fiction working at the atomic scale things don't react the same way. For example you can build a motor, but ATP or something close it it's going to be the fuel as heat engines don't really work. Which is why we end up using Bactria/viruses/plants/animals and simply overwrite their DNA. Granted we can get a lot better but don't expect anything to be both small and intelligent even the simplest chip is huge we compared to a virus.

Six to Start - London, UK

http://www.zombiesrungame.com

-----------------------------

We're an indie game developer based in London, and our flagship title is Zombies, Run!, a running game and audio adventure that melds GPS and accelerometer data with an epic story and fantastic gameplay. With 500,000 sales across iOS and Android and a pricetag from $3.99 to $7.99, it's the most successful smartphone fitness game in the world - and it's been nominated for awards by Develop, the Design Museum, SXSW, and more.

We want an Android developer who can help make our games - including Zombies, Run! and a new project with the Department of Health - even better and even more polished by using the latest software and hardware features in Android 4.0. And we want someone who can help think up and create entirely new game concepts that use smartphones, tablets, and other wearable devices and computers in novel ways.

In other words, we want your help to make the games of the future.

Why we're different: we get emails every day from people whose lives we’ve improved with our games - people who’ve lost weight, become healthier, and gained confidence. There’s nothing like knowing that your work is valued by hundreds of thousands and is doing good in the world.

I have always thought that all the stuff in common CDNs should be available in local storage by default. Common stuff like jQuery and the like. Firefox should have this as a feature where it downloads those scripts once and stores them in local storage. That way you're not leaking privacy everywhere you go to Google et. al.

Syadmin as a Service

Do you want the best when it comes to scaling, resilience and reliability, but don't have a full-time Ops person on the team? Why not rent one?

I work with startups and web agencies to help them spend less time worrying about technical problems, and more time growing their business.

How can I help you?

- Expert sysadmin services, on tap

- Infrastructure design and engineering

- Server maintenance and optimisation (performance and cost)

- Quickly get up and running with tools like Puppet

About Me

I'm writing a book on AWS System Administration that will be published by O'Reilly later this year.

Here's an AWS case study for an infrastructure I built: http://aws.amazon.com/solutions/case-studies/fashiolista/

Last month I gave a talk at Puppet Camp Amsterdam about how to get the most of out AWS and Puppet.

If you think these services could help your business grow, let's talk. mike@fadedink.co.uk
When I first made the Oath (yesterday), I just picked someone I looked up to. Seeing as this should be a social endeavor, I'm open to changes.

https://github.com/maxmackie/Turing-Oath/issues/1
I heard it helps if you select a few people who seem to pay the most attention—better sitting at far end of audience to make sure you don't lower your voice too much—and ‘talk’ to those few listeners, cycling between them.

I encountered this once and I suspect it was because I was thinking about presentation, not focused on delivering my point to the audience, not caring about it enough. Possibly also the audience that time didn't really care about my point. (Hard to find origin, as factors seem to worsen one another: you care less → audience cares less → … → your thoughts wander, you lose context.)
Ultimately most of the technical differences boil down to a single tradeoff between performance and reliability.

In some use cases, you have many transactions against a data store that won't be modified once it is set. In a case like that, mongodb is acceptable.

In other use cases, you have more complicated transactions involving lots of separate logical units. For example, lets say you are building an inventory and order management system. Someone wants to buy a widget. You need to reduce the widget inventory and push it into a customer's order, essentially an "Atomic" operation. AFAICT there's no "simple" data model under which MongoDB can give you atomicity.

In order to make a decision, the best bet is to figure out those requirements and just try one that fits the bill.

I'm not at all surprised that Glass can be rooted and such, but I wonder about the social implications. A while ago I (incorrectly, sort of) made a post saying that you wouldn't be able to tell when Glass is recording. Somebody replied and mentioned that it would have a red light visible when it is. I didn't bother replying because, despite precedent, I had no proof that Glass would be able to be rooted etc. My point is, with Glass already rooted, is anything stopping somebody from having Glass without a red light while recording?

I refuse to write "seeking work" in capital letters under my real name but I might as well throw my hat in. New York-based, remote is fine. Travel is fine if compensation merits it and it doesn't interfere with other jobs.

What I am I good at? Machine learning, statistical reasoning, game design, technical writing, architecture and design, and functional programming. I also know organization dynamics at a deep level even though I wouldn't recommend myself for a full-time management spot (hence my increasing interest in freelance; I'll have to escape the manage-or-be-managed corporate world before 40).

I don't have much front-end experience but I'm interested in picking it up. My preferred languages are Scala, Clojure, and Ocaml but I'll use the right tool for the job, and I can learn extremely quickly so that shouldn't be a problem.

I'm good at everything but subordination. No, I'm not constitutionally insubordinate-- I follow rules that make sense, like traffic laws-- but I refuse to be in the abusive power dynamic that sometimes comes with a payment relationship. I will only work for you if you see me as a full and equal partner; I bring the know-how and solve your problems, you bring the capital and problems to solve.

Oh, if you know anything about me, I don't lack for honesty. I'm a pretty blunt guy (constitutionally; not by choice) and I think that has advantages for you, even if it's bad for me.

"I'm unsure why students don't think this one through".

MONEY. Financial aid is available for classes, but not for self learning. Classes take a large percentage of your (would be) self learning time.
They're very limited compared to what you'd get in a real programming language. The fact that the language needs to define types for so many things is actually a demonstration of this - the reason postgres has built-in types for things like IP addresses or line segments is because it's too hard for users to implement such things themselves and very little notion of library code.
I stared at the landing page for a few seconds, waiting for it to do something. Then, I clicked around furiously trying to figure out what I was supposed to do. Then I accidentally scrolled down and found the content.

The landing page is a little confusing...

Gamaroff - London, UK

http://jobs.gamaroff.com/

Gamaroff is a primarily Rails development house working on desktop and mobile apps for large international brands and agencies.

We're looking for skilled full-stack developers who are smart and interested with using as much new cool tech as they possibly can. Whilst we primarily use Rails, we have also been known to dabble in Node, Lua, Go and an assortment of other languages on a per-project basis. From a front-end point of view, we use CoffeeScript, SASS/Less/Stylus and a cornucopia of frontend frameworks on a per-project basis.

Every Friday afternoon is dedicated to trying out new tools and software, and we're constantly encouraging developers to learn and experiment.

We have a lot of really fun stuff going on right now and we're looking to expand rapidly both in London and later this year in the US. Either get in contact through the jobs site above, or you can email me directly: josh@gamaroff.com. We can assist with relocation if we think you're a perfect fit.

What is ethical software? Is netcat bad because you can do bad things with it?
I'll definitely admit that the browser plugin is a piece of crap which should be moved away from. Sadly, there's still a ways to go for that as a number of countries use them pretty extensively. (bank interfaces are brought up a lot on HN) And yes, organizationally they definitely have some problems. The JVM has still been making progress though, with new garbage collectors and project lambda.

That said, I'm not sure what technical problems you're referring to. The JVM seems to work quite well on all platforms, even if it can be kinda clunky to program in Java at times. (which is part of the reason I mentioned other languages) And yes, I know the JVM is slow to start. It isn't designed for small scripts. Use Python or something else for that.
I thought that Adobe's rolling out automatic updates for Flash Player might finally end my having to (endlessly) maintain it on my parents' computers. No dice... (It doesn't work -- at all, it often seems, or at least consistently nor in anything like a timely manner.)

After some horrible experiences with Adobe Support, I've decided that Adobe as a company is crapware. I am sorry for e.g. some of the engineering talent there that may be doing good work. But, they (you) seem to exist these days within a horrible company organization.

Rentify - London, UK, Software Engineer (ruby on rails)

Listen, I don't want to bore you. You should know a few things about us before we begin.

1. We're a small tight-knit team that wants to change how rentals are done. The rental industry is old, antiquated, and ready for a push. We think we have the right recipe, and so does Balderton Capital, who invested in us for our Series A.

2. We don't do deadlines, or assign your day to day work to you, or tell you how to get it done, or make your decisions. You're smart, professional. You already know how to build software so you don't need us to tell you. Of course, we don't mind helping if you get stuck. Read more about it here: http://engineering.rentify.com/post/47385480838/in-engineers...

3. We're all hungry for success.

Okay, now for the normal stuff:

## Responsibilities:

- Lead by example - by writing good code, talking about good code, and then drinking beers with the team about all the good code that was written

- Design and development of new product features and enhancements

- Communicate with non-engineers to define requirements and deliverables

- Know what technologies are out there in case you need to use them

- Periodically teach your co-workers all the great stuff you learned via tech talks, brown bags, blogs, or open source

## Requirements:

- You ideally have Ruby on Rails experience. (We'll still talk to you if you've done something with Django or node.js)

- You want to work in a startup (a.k.a. a place that works hard and plays hard)

- You feel comforted when you write a good unit test

- You must have a Bachelor's knowledge level of computer science via education or experience

- You know when to use Postgres/Mysql vs Mongodb/Redis

- You understand the full stack (servers, RoR, javascript/css/html)

- You have to be able to travel to central London every day

## Perks:

- Unlimited vacation

- Equity in Rentify

- Food and drinks available in the office 24/7

- Feel free to crush your co-workers on our N64 and pool table. We're probably going to build a nap room too because I need a snooze once in a while.

- We provide whatever tools you need to succeed like the latest hardware and educational material

- Be a part of a collaborative team that sits in an open environment (read: no politics) who previously worked at companies like Eventbrite, Google, and Apple

To apply, send a CV + github over to jobs@rentify.com
Don't be a git, use subversion
I realize I'm responding to an account created today, which has already posted multiple pro-antibiotic comments, so I understand that gwt561324 likely has a strong vested interest in this and is likely not a regular HN member.

But I would like to point out the final paragraph here is pure FUD rhetoric. "Don't you find it much more alarming", "It's far more likely" (with no evidence to support claim).

The problem here isn't how frequently antibiotics used in agriculture cause resistance, it's the scale of the problem once they do. Sub-prime mortgage derivatives were traded millions of times without a problem, but once the system broke things got very bad very fast. That's the best analogy I can think of for antibiotic resistance, there is a massive systemic risk, being ignored for short-term profits.

You're right. With them being for profit, they have lost their credibility.

DevOps oriented System Engineer - LaterPay, Munich, Germany (needs legal right to work in the EU)

If you have experience with Puppet, Python, Git, Git Flow and PostgreSQL all of which, together with Cassandra, Nginx, Django and Tornado are in active production use in our colo facility in Munich, then we offer super-interesting work, competitive salaries, full health care, 28 days of paid vacation and we will do our best to help you move to Munich.

We are an international team from Portugal, Brazil, Germany, Australia and the UK and develop next-generation micro-payment systems. Currently we can't offer remote work in this ops position, because we still have physical servers in Munich.

If you're interested send your CV, GitHub and/or ServerFault/StackOverflow references to jobs@laterpay.net!

Also, if you're a student in the Munich area, who is interested in devops, don't hesitate to talk to us, too!
I like it - is there a way to find the notes as (if possible text-) files or maybe even set the directory where they are served? Would be awesome if I could set it to the same Dropbox directory as NValt.
