No freelancers or firms, please.
Interesting, but it does not settle the question as to whether the US justice system is inconsistent based on the nationality of the corporation. This list might carry some weight if it discussed the fact that some of these are settlements, and how did these compare to the size of the infraction.

Given that there is a serious and ongoing discussion about the lack of criminal proceedings, but that there are other kinds of very much lesser processes, it is legitimate to be concerned that financial institutions, and their employees and directors, are getting off too lightly. Then, in light of successful prosecutions against foreign corporations, the original question is legitimate.

Actually, the pattern of national bias is well established from well before the last great meltdown. And given that, these foreign prosecutions make one wonder why there have been so few against US banks.
I don't remember anything horrifying in it. It definitely shows that they are human with flaws, just like everyone else.
Free Summer Camp: How to build a website like an engineer
The Go designers clearly had full awareness of every language feature available in alternatives. They consciously and intentionally made the choices they did. This is obvious, of course, but often it is stated as if they came out of a cave, language in hand, unaware of all the great things they were missing.

And to your last sentence, use in production is not a good measure of language quality

It is actually a great indicator of the gap between abstract language tourism, and practical day to day development.

I will say again that Haskell is held as the perfect language and set of choices on here constantly (particularly when used to denigrate Go). Yet it is used for perilously few actual solutions (despite being around for decades).

Sometimes the things that seem incredibly important and of great value just aren't such a great value in the real world. Similarly, things that seem minor end up being very important.

Standing still is sub-optimal. But that's why treadmills are better - you're exercising and building muscle and that helps back pain.
I'm not following your logic here. What I'm getting is, "this topic is complicated and we don't know much, so you should adopt the solution I happen to like." Is that what you were after?
Penalty shootout first, then the game.
Do you think this would make soccer game more exciting?

Having the penalty shootout first, then 90 minutes game. The result from game overwrites the penalty shootout, but if scores are the same, then penalty shootout becomes final.

You wouldn't see defensive play anymore.

For the most of my professional career, I have been doing backend web development (mostly Python), with a little bit of frontend development and not-so-little bit of operations. I also do lower level audio-related programming in C++ in open source. I think I'd like to do more of C++ programming, or possibly learn some new language, but I wouldn't be against using my backend experience if it's an interesting project. I'm open to both full-time work and short-term project.

We're basically hiring most good generalist software engineers, or engineers with domain knowledge relevant to any of our work (e.g. analytics, scraping, semantic web, machine learning, search, web development, Android development and internals.) Email me at mquander@quixey.com for details or a referral.

We also host the South Bay Less Wrong meetups on Tuesday evenings, so stop by the office and check it out!

Numerate Inc, San Bruno, CA (25 mins from San Francisco)

Senior Infrastructure Engineer - Distributed Systems

https://github.com/Numerate/hiring

--- Who we are ---

Numerate is a group of cutting-edge scientists and engineers trying to solve very difficult problems at the interface of medicinal chemistry, data science, machine learning and cloud-scale analytics. We have developed a computational platform that can predict how a potential drug will behave in the lab and the body. We use this platform to process large spaces of chemistry while searching for therapies for some of the world’s most important diseases, such as, obesity, heart failure, Alzheimer’s, and Huntington’s disease. Our platform makes the drug development process cheaper, faster, and results in higher success rates than traditional approaches.

--- Our Stack ---

Our stack consists of a proprietary distributed computational platform, Numatix, which in-turn consists of cloud management, job management, job execution engine and custom dataflow language layers. We generally run this on top of Amazon Web Services, where we often scale the system to more than 10,000 cores. We are working to scale it to over 100,000 cores. On top of Numatix we run a number of custom libraries and services, such as machine learning, cheminformatics, bioinformatics, mathematics, etc. At the very top of our stack sits a number of user-facing tools, including web-based GUIs, NIX command line tools, and custom plugins for third party data analysis and chemistry tools. All of the layers use various storage types (MySQL, S3, Couchbase, custom built). The code base is written in Java, Scala, Python, and some C++. All of these layers are being actively developed and improved.

Join us, and code for more than just clicks!

Let me tell you though, a few weeks back me and a couple of friends started to discuss about previous World Cups, wanting to know more about it... So we started compiling information about World Cups, beginning from in Uruguay 1930, all the way to SAF 2010.

It wasn't an easy task, most images are not of free domain, but copyrighted.

However, we found material worth sharing, like for example some very old photos in black an white displaying police/guard from the URSS, and some videos that are older than my grandpa.

Here's what came of it: http://www.historyoftheworldcup.com

AWS is a simple model: pay for what you use. Most cheap hosts (i.e. please kill me DreamHost) give you no SLA and your rolling the uptime dice. Three years on DH and I wanted to kill myself. Three years on AWS and life is just splendid!

To understand your billing, you need to understand what you're consuming, which you always should. These credits add a little wrinkle, but also make the service cheaper and more deterministic. If you have credits, you'll get the CPU you bought with them.
If you are a webdeveloepr that builds non-Javascript tools that don't integrate with the rest of Javascript tooling, you will have a very isolated, limited, unadopted and narrow-minded niche you carve for yourself.

Complete BS. They claimed they were just going to stop bad traffic. But they can't handle the overall traffic load and so NO traffic is getting through. I was using the service to provide access to an API server in-house. A very simple server, nothing but JSON requests in-and-out. Absolutely NO malware. But since MS takeover - no traffic has gotten through.

I pay for my noip account, so I'm happy to join any lawsuits against MS for this action. Personally, I see a class action suit being VERY viable.

I also have issue with the courts even allowing this. Did they do ANY research on what is actually going on? I can't see how they could let this happen.

I feel violated!
Also, the hope is that in a future version of Julia, we can have a devectorization pass within the compiler at least to handle the most common cases. This is common in Fortran compilers.

Kevin, I just gotta say, you guys rock. Keep up the good work.
We are using the Java Play framework for the REST API, MongoDB as our DB. MongoDB has geospatial index support that makes geo queries pretty efficient. For iOS, pretty standard Cocoa libraries... glad you think its responsive :) On Android, also pretty standard libraries.

We designed the client to be very light and do as much processing on the server and also are very careful to do as much asynchronous work as possible (networking a must)
Adblock/Flashblock/Ghostery seem to have blocked it for me.
Second that. The purpose of Julia is not to replace every other language that people use for technical computing. I personally use Python for other projects (www.circuitscape.org), and only recommend using Julia for new classes of problems that need Julia's performance and capabilities. That class of problems keeps expanding over time.
