San Francisco, CA: Active Mind Technology / GAME GOLF -- http://www.gamegolf.com/jobs

Do you love golf? Do you want a job in tech where you can live and breathe golf every day -- to create easier and better ways to track your stats, to compete with your friends, to analyze your game, and to connect every golfer and golf fan on the planet? If so, then Active Mind Technology is the place for you.

We are a lean and scrappy group of software and hardware folks, revolutionizing the way sports are played and analyzed with next-generation wearable products, starting with golf. We launched our first product GAME GOLF at the PGA Show, with support from PGA players (Graeme McDowell, Lee Westwood, Jim Furyk), Apple retail stores, the PGA and Golf Channel, and a few of the largest sporting goods stores.

We’re looking for experienced engineers, (front-end, back-end, iOS, Android), as well as data scientists, product managers, designers, and an RTOS expert for our wearable tech. Our platform is built on Java, PostgreSQL, PHP, and AngularJS. This is a small team so be prepared to hit the ground running!

We are hiring ASAP for full-time in San Francisco only. Our office is on Townsend near the Caltrain. Please contact jobs@gameyourgame.com with inquiries. We’re also on AngelList and Facebook if you want to find out more.
While it is a nice tool, RStudio is AGPL, which means it can't be used in many companies due to contamination fears, including Google but I understand many other companies as well.
Are all of IBM's operations at the Watson center in Yorktown Heights moving to Manhattan or are these really two separate groups? I ask as someone who is interested in applying.

Well, yeah. Only half of the efforts trampeled?
Location: Hong Kong

Remote: Yes

Willing to Relocate: Yes

Technologies: Python, Django, Flask, Javascript, Backbone, React, Node.js

Resume: http://wyuenho.github.io/

Email: See resume

Having hands-on experience with the entire large scale Web application's technology stack in the past 10 years, I am currently transitioning my career from the exploration phase to the exploitation phase. I'm currently looking for opportunities outside of my resident city where my various skills can be fully utilized to their greatest potential in service of a product that I love.
From the very beginning of my career at EditGrid.com (acquired by Apple in 2008) to my most recent job with Muneris Services (funded by Intel), I have had a tremendous fortune to be working from the front-end all the way to the back-end on every subsequent job that I took on. In the past 10 years, I had emerged from being a beginning Java programmer to being a very proficient polyglot software engineer well versed in HTML5, CSS, Javascript, Java, Python and Scala, in additional to a number of other static and dynamically typed languages and software technologies. I firmly believe that my skills will be of tremendous value to my future employer.
In my free time, I'm also an active open source developer within the Javascript and Python communities. My most recent success is Backgrid.js, which within 2 days from announcement on Reddit, it had been submitted to Jeremy Ashkenas (creator of Cofferscript, Backbone.js and Underscore.js) himself to HackerNews and stayed on the front page for 2 days.
I have grown enormously by working with many talented and inspiring individuals in the past. I firmly believe that the key to personal and organizational success is a culture of continuous learning and practice, and a culture of passionate dedication and respect. I am looking forward to working for a company that aspire to these ideals in my next venture.
I would also recommend not mentioning if you're a diagnosed psychopath or not.
the only thing that would not be admissible is if I recorded a conversation between us without telling you you are on record.

Doesn't that vary by state? IIRC in some you can record anything you're involved in while in others everyone involved has to agree (or at least know?). Or maybe this was about getting sued under privacy laws rather than admissibility...
This problem is important enough to justify multiple attempts in parallel, despite the redundant work.
"Mr. Mateen told Ms. Wolfe that the reason she could no longer hold herself out as a co-founder was that she was a 24-year-old “girl” with little experience. Once again he said that holding her out as a co-founder “makes the company look like a joke” and “devalues the company.” Mr. Mateen tried to justify the situation by saying “Facebook and Snapchat don’t have girl founders, it just makes it look like Tinder was some accident.” Further, as Mr. Rad informed Ms. Wolfe, IAC would not let her be publicly recognized as a co-founder."

It's rare to see sexism in tech spelled out so blatantly. If the above is true, that's absolutely despicable.

Bitcoin is better for the people being funded, but leaves no recourse for the funders if the project just runs away with their money.
For me, on Firefox 30, I can see the basic structure of the page immediately, then my browser freezes for ~1.5 seconds, and I see the rest. I checked out the front page in FF's devtools, and could only see two uncached network requests, both to youtube.com. So I am assuming that Polymer itself isn't hitting the network. Furthermore AJAX doesn't freeze the browser, so I can only conclude that it's the actual JS that is causing that lag.

On Chrome 35 the freeze is for a much smaller duration but I can still feel it.

I'm currently on my (fairly beefy) desktop, so I imagine it's even more noticeable on an older laptop or phone.

EDIT: indeed, from a cold cache, it's even slower, and wow there are a lot of HTTP requests.
They're in the protocol, no one's used them yet.

Indeed. If we criminalized being shady most business owners in the continental US would be behind bars. Selling overpriced phones? Apple. Selling overpriced junk food? McDonalds. Selling overpriced headphones? Beats. Selling overpriced housing loans? Banks. Selling overpriced jeans? Levis. Selling overpriced smelly water? Perfume companies. Selling overpriced hydrocarbons? Deodorant companies. Overpriced sugar water? Coca cola. The list goes on and on and on.

The system we live in is designed around rewarding people who can extract capital from others. That means everyone's fucking over everyone and only the most clearly fraudulent transactions are regulated away to minimize externalities.

Is it optimal? No. But that's the reality of the system we live in.

Just curious, does anyone want to argue the point about the texts being relatively flimsy evidence or just downvote? I guess that's what passes for debate these days.
Law didn't fix this problem...

ISTM we're considering two different problems here. The first, and more important from society's POV, is that there aren't enough women working in the industry. The second, and for some much more personally important, is to avoid being sued for harassment. The people who worry about the latter may be grossly overestimating the danger, but their reactions to that overestimate could still make the first problem worse. Reactions like "same-sex environments", for instance.
Never heard that before! Just seems the optimal way to look like you know what you're doing:)

If I was paypal, and decided to reverse the freeze, I would immediately unfreeze it, and then take the time to write something up.

From a PR perspective, I would think it would be better to say "We wanted to unfreeze immediately so they could start take donations again." rather than "We kept it frozen until we had time to write an apology."

Not saying we're definitely going to get one, but I could see why it might not come immediately.
I thought that cost was dominated by memory utilization instead of CPU utilization. How can AWS manage to pull this off?
>I used to agree with this, until I realized that without goals, I had nothing to really strive for. Nothing to stretch myself towards. Nothing to achieve.

Honest question. What happens to you if you stop 'striving for' something, intolerable boredom?
It's not impossible, but it would be really really stupid to forge messages that could conceivably be reconstructed in your motion to the court.

It's not that no one has ever done something really really stupid but it's not unreasonable to assume, for now, that the messages are not forged.

He didn't say that if you didn't agree with him, you're a fucking scumbag. He said that if you're still claiming we should reserve judgement after it's been confirmed that the messages were sent, you're a fucking scumbag. In my opinion, that's a non-controversial statement and likely to be true.

Edit: Here are the messages: http://www.buzzfeed.com/sapna/tinder-sued-for-sexual-harassm...
RStudio looks really impressive. I have heard reliably that they do use the AGPL license and legal threat to get people to pay up for RStudio licenses. I have nothing against people charging for good software, but this sounds like some sort of bait and switch. I wonder if someone else can confirm if this is actually true.
If this really is a TIL then it needs more reporting. Every professional should be aware of this guideline, and why it's important.

EDIT on re-reading this was pretty obvious sarcasm that I missed.

It's kind of odd that this project is using crowdfunding at all. As far as I can tell, they are just selling software as a service, and the service already exists.

This is a false dichotomy; in reality, impact on the natural landscape does not decline with housing density.

Suburbs are not little log cabins surrounded by wilderness. They are big houses with big yards, garages, roads, schools, shopping malls, parking lots, etc. At even lower densities, in many rural areas houses are surrounded by farmland, which is also a substantial alteration of the natural landscape.

In addition, energy has to come from somewhere, and energy development also impacts the land through mining, drilling, refining, transporting, and using the energy sources. Even solar and wind have impacts on land use and must scale with demand. So it's incorrect to disregard energy use, because it will impact the land somewhere.

> Phrased differently, it's easier for native organisms to survive if humans are spread out, than if we bulldoze their habitat and build highrises.

This is just 100% wrong. The habitat gets bulldozed (or plowed under) in any case when humans move in and start developing.
That's just marketing speak. Sure, G+ is about getting a real identity and other personal info to tie together with Google reading your emails, tracking you across the web, and tracking you via Android etc, but a Gmail sign-in would provide a "central identity" without G+. That's especially true for most Android users.
Let's just keep in mind that these are merely allegations, and that no-one was convicted, and no investigation has completed so far. I hope the media and the courts don't ruin another person's life based on allegations that turn out to be false, as in the case of Julian Assange and the recent Oxford Union scandal.

Also, keep in mind that it is in Tinder's interest to put all blame to the employee that sent the allegedly inappropriate private messages. We have no idea what the true nature of their relationship was, how it evolved, and if it ended on a bad note.

I'm not saying that he is innocent, but he should be treated as such until he is proved guilty.
There's no reason that the crowdfunding platform couldn't hold the pledged Bitcoin in escrow, which seems like it would be pretty straightforward and transparent.

I think you're confounding Polymer with Paper. The core Polymer elements that have currently been released make no assumption as to your UI preference, which means you can style them individually as you please.

I've been creating my own Polymer elements for an internal project and have been pleased with the result so far. We've got some particular branding requirements that I've been able to reproduce to great effect. I think as long as you stay away from the messy parts of Polymer (such as making XHR requests in the DOM) then you may find the experience more agreeable.
That information is a bit dated as we have several ways of dealing with backpressure starting with RxJS 2.2.15 with the inclusion of pausable/pausableBuffered and controlled https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/RxJS/releases/tag/v2....

We then updated it to have .pause and .resume methods on the Observable itself to take care of some of the ugliness:
https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/RxJS/releases/tag/v2....

Overall, these do not go ultimately up to the publisher as we're dealing with multicast streams in which we don't want other subscribers to pay any penalty for one slow subscriber.

Thanks for the details. In all honesty I am probably not a target for Rust anyway, I almost never use C++ for systems programming, but rather for (cross-platform) application development. It would seem that neither Rust nor Go serve this area and probably do not intend to do it either.
Pay not at parity = problem

Participation not at parity = problem

Harassment suits not at parity = everything is fine?
One not completely obvious lesson that can be drawn from this, has to do with preventing cases like this from being filed in the first place. If you look at the last exhibit in the complaint, even at the very end the CEO (Rad) could have negotiated what sounds like a very modest settlement if he had been willing to be a little understanding and flexible. Instead he went into some legalistic lock down mode and refused to consider even a token severance.

Now perhaps before signing anything Ms. Wolfe would have consulted a lawyer and so there would have been a lawsuit anyway. And as a disinterested observer, I would kind of hope so. But the pragmatic lesson for people who might be in a similar situation is that a little humility and understanding can go a long way. I'm reminded of the study finding that doctors who apologized for medical mistakes ended up being sued less often for medical malpractice.

Of course, by far the best thing is to avoid such situations altogether!
Because they have agreed to the Ts&Cs which allow PayPal to do this under the relevant circumstances?

While they could potentially argue the circumstances are not correctly interpreted or were not legal to dictate and agree to in the first place (and therefore not enforcible), can they afford the time and legal costs to do so especially given how long Paypal (or other large organisation they are in a similar position with) can afford to let things drag on for?
I use http://hackerne.ws which works well too.
