Full stack generalist looking to continue growing and learning. Experienced in leading small agile teams alongside plenty of client-facing time. My history makes me more of a "jack-of-all-trades" type, but I am more than happy to grow expertise where needed.

Seeking for an opportunity with room to grow myself and have real possibilities of contributing to the wider group.
> Your question doesn't make sense to me.

It is because you don't understand the nature of bitcoin or it's colorful history with third party services like Coinbase. The question is a good one and not at all unreasonable if you understand bitcoin. The system is supposed to be trustless, and one aspect of this is that you don't need a trusted third party to conduct safe and fast transactions with another individual. Another aspect is that you don't have to trust someone else to hold your money, but then of course the security is up to you, which has so far been something of a problem.

As others have mentioned, multi-sig addresses are one part of the solution (doesn't BitGo support these now?), and another is potentially a hardware solution. But the current Coinbase offerings are inadequate, and those types of solutions will eventually be replaced or people will continue to lose their money when they trust someone else with their private keys.

There is no insurance for stolen, hacked, or otherwise lost keys. In the banking system, when money is "lost", the loss is spread out among everyone, which is nice if you were the affected party but is a pretty raw deal for everyone else (cf. banking crisis of the past 5+ years). When bitcoins are lost, there is no recourse.
True. And I also think we are going to see many more like these unless humans, rather than corporations, are prosecuted for these kind of incidents.

> a process like Google's is mainly getting the first kind

They might have decided long ago that they largely need just the first kind but how are you going to communicate that sort of preference and why should you..
:)

You're not the first person to tell me that. They always tell me they're kidding, but I guess there's some truth to it :) . Please, could you elaborate on your thoughts?

When Antu came home we had an open space for him, where he could run somehow freely. Then winter came and we had to bring him inside our apartment. After a while, I built a wheel for him (not the same one as he has now) and he ran like crazy. Now when we put him in the open space he prefers to run on the wheel. I always wonder if he really enjoys it or we just messed him up. It seems that it is the former:

At my current day job (a large megacorp), I build web applications and automation solutions using modern tools in support of internal workflow and process improvement. On a more general level, I love working with (and talking about) functional languages and write most of my code with a functional slant, and I'm comfortable working on both the front-end and back-end. Be sure to reach out if we have something in common or if you'd like to talk.

While development may be moving mobile RubyMotion is actually moving somewhat desktop-bound: latest builds support OS X desktop app building. It's a lovely replacement for MacRuby, which isn't building post-LLVM.

Meanwhile, more along mobile lines, RubyMotion has promised Android support. iOS templated apps will be able to share classes etc. with Android templated apps. Pretty exciting stuff for native.

The cost of a RubyMotion license has to me seemed a little steep when piled atop the other OS X fees, but taken in context and with derived value (for me, namely staying in vim and out of XCode and Eclipse) I think the price makes on the whole.
Author is clueless. Linux is provided as an example of open source software, even though it is publicised under a free software licence.
I can't help but think that these things cannot be too accurate. Even in the cheese example given in the article, the outer layer of many cheeses are slightly (some more than others) different than the inside of the cheese block. So how accurate could the reader be for giving contents of the entire block given a scan of a small surface area.

This gets even worse when you scan say, the outer shell of a ravioli. The reader would see pasta which is great but how does the reader know whether it's just pasta or pasta stuffed with lard or spinach?

Kivo (YC S13) - London

We're building Github for documents and have started by creating the best way to store, share and get feedback on presentations. We're a team of three based in Soho, London. You'll be technical hire #2 and have a huge amount of responsibility and ownership of the product. We're looking for an excellent front-end developer. You love Javascript, but are comfortable picking up other languages, and obsess over building the best possible user experience. Customer feedback is our guiding light so working closely with users in shaping Kivo should excite you.

Our back end is Scala / Play and we're in the process of moving to Angular, so bonus points for experience with that.

Equity grants will be well above market for first hires and salary will be competitive. We want new partners, not just employees, so we are looking for people who are as driven to succeed as we are.

We're hiring for people who want to help lead the team as we continue to grow, so you should be excited to shape the development culture of a fast growing start-up.

We also know there's more to life than work. You get gym membership for gyms across London and an extremely sociable team to work with. We love poker, eating out, tennis, and nights at the pub.

If this sounds exciting, ping us (leo@kivo.com) and we'd love to buy you lunch and have a chat.
With the size of the fine, there is no chance that it was worth it (to the bank). This fine is over four times bigger than the previous record fine ($1.9 billion, HSBC, also for sanctions violations)

However, it could have been worth it to the individuals who arranged the transactions and (presumably) got large bonuses as a result.
It depends, if the thing you were doing net you profits above $9 billion then it's not so painful.

SEEKING WORK - Los Angeles, California. Remote.

I'm working on hackEDU, a nonprofit organization that helps high school students start and lead programming clubs at their schools (https://hackedu.us). I'm doing freelance work to support myself while I work on it.

These days I've been working in primarily Go, Postgres, and AngularJS, but I'm also well-versed in Rails and Sinatra. I am versatile enough to adapt to your languages/tools and will do whatever it takes to get the job done. Some relatively recent projects include:

- A command-line utility for batch-sending email from a CSV https://github.com/zachlatta/postman

- A website that connects homeless shelters with restaurants and volunteer groups that want to help, but don't know how. It won Hack for LA (LA Times article: http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-la-hackathon-201...).

- A web service that let's you embed LaTeX in standards-complient markdown (like GitHub readmes) https://github.com/texit/texit

We're hiring a Fulltime Python Developer in London (REMOTE is okay).

We're a small, fun team that's trying to change how people shop on mobile. We're backed by a top VC in London and were featured by Apple as a 'best new app' in over a hundred countries and are getting some incredible traction. Our team has previously worked for Rocket Internet, Dafiti, Techstars and Pixelmator. We've got strong domain expertise in the area and believe that there's a massive opportunity in the space.

You'll be working on core projects on day 1 and once you're familiar with the source, expect to be leading key projects. You'll be challenged constantly as we keep pushing the boundaries of what a 'simple' app can do (algorithms, image analysis etc..).

We're also quite open about our numbers and our plans, so please drop us a line (hadi@stylectapp.com) and lets chat. Coffee is on us :).

P.S: We're willing to be flexible for STRONG candidates because our biggest priority is to build an amazing team.

TechEmpower - Los Angeles area, California (El Segundo, near LAX)

You may recognize us from the Web Framework Benchmarks that have been discussed on HN periodically: http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/

We don't want ninjas and rockstars, just good developers

We hire people, not skill sets. If you're a smart, motivated developer who likes our company culture, let's talk.

Over the past 16 years we've cultivated a great group of people to work with. Our developers are smart, thoughtful, respectful to each other, opinionated, dedicated, and fun. We don't hire often, and when we do, we value these qualities as much as technical abilities.

Founded by a former computer science professor, in many ways we keep the same feel as a small computer science lab (without the long hours):

Challenging and varied projects
Informal, comfortable environment
Intelligent, engaged people
Lively, respectful technology discussions
Frequent mentoring
Easy camaraderie
General culture of helpfulness and friendliness

Teams at TechEmpower are typically between 2 and 6 people. Because of the small size of our teams, we need developers able to work on all aspects of an application ("full stack" developers). We rely on individual developers to do much of the software design, with guidance and discussion, and actively work to improve each other's technical capabilities.

On average, a typical developer will get exposure to 3 or 4 different projects over the course of a year. Since each project has a different technology stack, developers gain varied experience over time and never stop learning.

We pride ourselves on doing the best work we can for our clients. This means working with them to really understand what they need built, carefully planning how to do it, and delivering what we promise while maintaining a sensible work/life balance. We build quality applications and have fun doing it.

Also, we enjoy programming on high-performance workstations with 4K displays. A lot of code fits in 3840x2160 pixels!

The technologies we use vary over time with our mix of projects. Here is a snapshot of the technologies we use at the moment:

Languages: Java, JavaScript, Python, C#, Ruby, PHP
Tools: Git, Jenkins (Continuous Integration), Sonar (static code analysis), Eclipse, IntelliJ, Ant, Maven
Web: Dropwizard, .NET MVC 5, Play, Django, Rails, Mustache, Handlebars, Backbone, Angular, Knockout, JSP, Servlets, jQuery, etc.
Mobile: iOS, Android, PhoneGap
Hosting: AWS (EC2, RDS, etc.), Rackspace Cloud, Linux deployments
Data Persistence: ORM (Hibernate, etc.), MySQL, Postgres, MS SQL Server, NoSQL (Redis, MongoDB)

We don't expect new hires to have experience with all of these, but developers at TechEmpower can expect to expand their skillsets with most of these over time.

If this sounds like the kind of place you'd like to work, please apply here:
