I'm a strong Java developer wanting to transition to Clojure. In 14 years as a senior Java developer, mentor, and team lead, I mastered many associated technology stacks. Coworkers and friends look to me for programming advice and assistance in solving complex problems. I relish challenging projects. I strive to write exceptionally clean code, along with suites of thorough unit and integration tests.

I am looking for an opportunity to do more functional programming, ideally in Clojure. Although I have not used Clojure professionally, I solved all 150 problems on the 4Clojure.com website, and am well on the way to proficiency. I worked the problems from the first two chapters of the classic SICP in both Clojure and Haskell, and am reading Clojure books (and a style guide) to learn good idiomatic Clojure.

Besides using Java in my job, I write a lot of JavaScript, and also automate routine tasks using scripts written in Perl, Ruby, Python, and shell scripts. As part of continually honing my skills, in my free time I experiment with many languages, including Lisp, Erlang, OCaml, Haskell, Scala, and Clojure. Also I have begun Android development in my free time, initially with Eclipse, but now Android Studio. I have Github repos with some Haskell examples, and have solved over 100 Project Euler problems using Haskell. I also maintain several FreeBSD ports and do technical reviews for O'Reilly. Currently I am doing a technical review of an upcoming Clojure book.

I get excited at the prospect of working on interesting and challenging problems, and on systems that impact large numbers of people. Getting to develop in Clojure would also be a big plus. I have experience working remotely, and with my background and abilities, I will be an asset to your team.

No, all languages had the same purpose: being the best general-purpose programming language. What differed was their approach.

SEEKING WORK - remote, from Israel

I've been a full-stack Web developer since 1993, when I set up one of the first 100 Web sites in the world. I've been working as a consultant since 1995. I have extensive experience with Ruby (and Rails), Python, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, and many other technologies. I have a PhD in Learning Sciences from Northwestern University; I researched the intersection between online communities, collaboration, social networks, and agent-based models.

My real value isn't my extensive technological know-how. Rather, it's my ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical people, and to turn that communication into business value.

I know how to take business needs and turn them into software, by myself and with others. I also know how to describe technical issues in terms that business people can understand, that allow us to make informed decisions. Many of my clients have used me as a remote, part-time CTO or lead developer.

I also help developers and teams improve their coding and management practices. I frequently teach in-person courses in Python, Ruby/Rails, PostgreSQL, and Git to such companies as Apple, Cisco, Freescale, HP, SANDisk, and VMWare. I also offer online coaching/pairing services to individuals and teams. I can be your "personal coding trainer," setting goals and meeting several times each week to ensure that your code and coding improve.

I also write: My first ebook, "Practice Makes Python" (http://lerner.co.il/practice-makes-python), is now available for purchase.

My aim: Long-term, interesting projects with nice people. (Short-term relationships can also be fine, depending on the work and myschedule.) Bottom line, I like to speak with and help nice people, and feel privileged that my work lets me do so. If I can incorporate elements of what I learned doing my PhD -- an online collaborative platform and social network for agent-based modelers (http://modelingcommons.org/) -- then that would delight me even more.

If I can be of help to you or your company, contact me at reuven@lerner.co.il, or on Skype as "reuvenlerner". You can also read more about me at http://lerner.co.il/ , and on my blog at http://blog.lerner.co.il/ .
I had very similar situation at work, one day we found out one of the teammates passed away in his sleep (a young, heavy, although sporty person), but I would never make a blog post like the one I'm commenting on. Being Nicole I would be really angry about you invading my privacy, making her tragedy all about yourself and your fear of mortality... Just saying.
SEEKING WORK — Remote in Princeton, NJ or on-site in NYC if necessary

Hi, I'm Julius! I do freelance iOS development for startups and local small businesses.

- I work mostly in Objective-C with some Swift these days. I also do Python, Ruby, C/C++.

- I've been programming for almost 10 years now. iOS since 2008.

- I have some light experience in backend & web front end development (see RunSwift)

- I have a strong design sense

- I come from a family of small business owners; I'm much more interested in you making more money than SV silliness

Before starting freelancing, I worked for Fitocracy (https://www.fitocracy.com/) where I developed their iOS apps (Workout + Food tracking) for 2.5 years. Before that, I worked for an app development agency in New Jersey making conference circuit demo apps for Big Pharma companies like BMS and Pfizer, where my responsibilities were leading the mobile development team as well as traveling frequently to provide on-site support at various conferences in an array of different countries. That was fun! A long time ago, I taught myself to code writing homebrew programs for the Sony PSP. Great memories.

In my free time I work on RunSwift (http://runswiftlang.com/) and tweet about things that interest me (https://twitter.com/jparishy).

I'm very friendly and flexible. I'd be happy to simply chat about your project and give advice. If we're on the same page and I think I can help you with your project, great! We can go from there.

Here's my website: http://juliusparishy.com/
And my email: hello@juliusparishy.com

I hope to hear about some of your awesome projects soon!

Madrid, Spain | Mediatech Solutions | Full time preferred, contract possible | EU Visa required

* DevOps Engineer - see http://www.mediatechsolutions.es/join-the-team/openings/ for this and additional openings

### What?

We are a platform provider in the real money online gaming space. Our solution deals with lots of money and game transactions and we integrate with many content providers that our customers can then pick and choose from to offer as their solutions. Our customers all work in highly regulated markets so there are quite a few laws that we must adhere to in our day to day work.

### How?

We use a full C#.Net stack and related technologies - IIS, SQL Server and Windows Server. Performance is king so we tend to get fairly low level in the code. We are working in Scrum and you will be working side by side with all kinds of engineers - developers, testers and other ops people. Everyone contributes an individual piece to the bigger puzzle of our development cycle.

### Why?

We need experienced DevOps Engineers to join the team and help us building a shippable platform that gives us details on what is happening before it happens. The supporting tools we use are flexible and don't have to run on Windows or C#. If you have always wanted to implement DevOps solutions that will be tested in scale (not Google/Facebook, but rather financial institution) we can offer you an exciting environment to work in.

### More!

Architecture as code, dashboards, automatic deployments, performance measurements, working with dev, working with testers. Create from scratch, enhance, improve. If you always wanted to setup a DevOps lifecycle with the building blocks you chose - this could be an opportunity for you.

We are in northern Madrid and are ideally looking for full time people, if you want to just check out Madrid for a few months we can maybe talk as well but it's not our preferred option. Also - we need presence in the office so unfortunately no remote work :( If you want to practice your Spanish you will get ample opportunity but our official language is English.

Salaries are competitive within Europe/Spain but are not Silicon Valley level.

Shoot me an email if you are interested with a rundown of your previous experience - my name is Andre and I am the Technical Director, email me at jobs_hn@mediatechsolutions.es
SEEKING WORK - Remote (based in Baltimore, MD)

I'm a technical marketer, and I help companies do the following:

- Get traction faster (for early-stage startups).

- Turn more visitors into users, leads, or customers (aka, conversion optimization).

I do this with any or all of the following, depending on your unique case: Funnel analysis, conversion optimization, A/B testing, SEO, email campaigns and automated emails, content planning, and usability studies.
What makes me different from most marketing consultants:

- I can roll up my sleeves and write code when needed. This saves you design and development time on small optimization improvements. (HTML/CSS, basic JS and jQuuery, Github).

- I'm certified in Optimizely, the A/B testing tool.

- I come from an engineering background (naval engineering), so I love solving real problems (by "real" I mean things that directly impact your revenue).

EmberJS is a great alternative to Angular, and is often considered its primary competitor. To summarize, Ember is basically Rails for the front-end. It emphasizes convention over configuration, and it was designed to aid in the construction of "ambitious web applications", i.e. Javascript-heavy single-page apps that need best-in-class routing and composable views all the way down.

Plus, isn't "Blender is for Blender users" kinda redundant? If you're using Blender through an API, you're still a 'Blender user'.
I really dislike JSX and I don't see the appeal. Mixing HTML/JS just seems like an awful idea. Mixing the two is one of the reasons I hate Angular templates.

Fixing senescence problem in 20 years is an extremely optimistic forecast.

There are no signs of that happening.

With every year of technical progress, life expectancy of old people is not moving up even 1 year.

Still, the read was very interesting.
They glossed over the tidal force in the movie and I assumed it was a deus ex of sorts (in fact, I assumed the whole final act of the movie was more concerned with resolution of the story than with proper Physics). Thank you for this explanation, this is fascinating stuff.

I saw that she is married to Jenell Jaquays, which made me think immediately of Paul Jaquays (who worked at iD during the Quake days). Sure enough, Jenell Jaquays is Paul Jaquays.

q/ and q: are improved versions of : and / -- when you type q: or q/ it brings up a split with your : or / history in it -- so now you can use normal vim editing commands to edit an existing command or type in a new one, and then hit return and it runs the / or : on that line.

Once you get used to using them, you will only use / or : when the search or command you want is absolutely simple and straightforward.

:normal lets you use normal commands at a command line, often used for automation or scripting stuff... so you can do :normal 5j to go down 5 lines.

I agree with your sentiment - but at the same time I've been thinking a bit about this (not-mouse, not keyboard input - and text editing). I think that multi-touch screens might be a good-ish fit for something ACME-like (note: I'm not an ACME user). One-finger to select, two-to (do whatever it is that typically does), three for action etc. Two-finger hold+third-finger-tap. That kind of thing.

My main motivation is that I've developed RSS pretty early, and while I can function with a keyboard, using the mouse more than just a little bit, will quickly trigger a fall-back.

Add to that, the idea of reducing ten digits to a single (or three) buttons, doesn't strike me as optimal -- only easy (considering a serial interface, simple hardware).

That said, efficient, non-strain inducing touch interfaces pretty much dictate the same kind of restrictions that pen-"input" (drawing) does: a drafting table/slanted screen layout -- not vertical screen, horizontal keyboard.

And I do think that ACME has some valuable ideas that could help make multi-touch work for efficient text (and other) editing.

Here is how I got my passion, motivation, and ambition back. Let's call it my slump-buster.

1. Find Inspiration. It could be music, watching a movie about a start-up or some other inspiring story. For me it was listening to Brian Stevens keynote speech from the RedHat Summit on YouTube. If you listen to the past 3 years he makes it clear that software developers and Linux are going to rule the world. Use this as a tool to get you into your command center to get stuff done.

2. Do not come home from work and go to your command center or computer room. You need time away from the computer to remember what your passionate about. Watch TV, go exercise, spend time with your family, whatever makes you happy.

3. Go to bed early. When your lying in bed, think about your side projects and what you want to build. Go into detail about the code, UI, technology stack, where your going to host it. This will help you dream in code and get you excited to wake up.

4. Wake up early. I get up around 3am without an alarm clock now because after dreaming about my passion projects I'm so excited to get up and make things happen. You would be surprised how focused you can be at 3am with no distractions. In the last 6 months since I started this new me I have read over 20 books and wrote several documents for my passion project.

5. Setup the perfect development workstation. I use my 27 inch mac for development but I also have 3 laptops running Linux. I told myself I was going to setup and learn all the best productivity tools to help me code better/faster. I setup my dotfiles perfectly with all the vim plugins I wanted to use, tmux scripts, and pushed it up to github and synced it to all my workstations. It is such a rush to have everything running perfectly.

6. Start a ritual or habit and set goals. Document all your ideas for your passion projects in as much detail as possible. Go to Trello or Evernote and document everything. Include pictures, links, sound, video, whatever to help you describe your idea and get yourself motivated. I call mine my 5 year project plan even though it will only take me about a year and a half. (Part of my plan is to save money and move to SV.)

Interesting! Are you studying in the US? I went to high school and university in the States and never learned individual names for those equations.

But now you say this it's kind of odd -- we have Ohm's law (and pythagoras' theorem and the Riemann function etc). What's different about these four?

(and it seems the name "Maxwell's Flux Equation" would really be simply the description of that one rather than a name).
