Locus Energy: http://locusenergy.com/

San Francisco, CA

About us: We’re dedicated to the proliferation of sustainable energy solutions. To that end, we build software to monitor, analyze and manage the performance of tens of thousands of solar power systems. We’re a mature startup with a close-knit team that is greater than the sum of its parts. Our organization provides some structure while still leaving plenty of opportunities to make your mark. We’re not perfect but constantly improving. We value folks who offer a new perspective and play nicely with others.

About you: You’re passionate about sustainable energy and want to play a part of pushing our society in that direction. Nothing would excite you more than wedding your engineering prowess with your dreams of clean, green energy. You write a failing test before fixing a bug. You are thoughtful, curious and ask questions when you don’t understand. You take ownership of your responsibilities and see them through to the entire development lifecycle from design to maintenance.

Perks:

- Conveniently located in downtown SF, a few minutes' walk from Montgomery St station

- Relaxed work atmosphere. Flexible working hours and work from home policies.

- Health insurance, 401k

- Fruit, snacks. Bagels and lunch each provided 1x a week.

- A spacious new office complete with a living room couch, big screen TV, PS3 and darts.

We are looking for both frontend and backend engineers that are familiar with any combination of Java, Scala, Python, JavaScript (especially Ember, Angular or Backbone), and MySQL. For more details, head here: http://locusenergy.com/company/careers/.
The first live example doesn't work in Firefox, for a reason the article already mentioned: Firefox doesn't support innerText.
Right. I'm not being critical of the underlying KV tech. It seemed pretty impressive from what I know. My two points were:
1. The SQL thing wasn't gonna work they way they went about it.
2. Without SQL or some other powerful query tool, it's a less interesting product.

1. Scaling this would be a combination of selecting the right data store that would scale linearly on performance as well as on storage costs. There are many.
2. If you were concerned about privacy issues by exposing URLs, you would simply do the following: a) pass URLs only as hashes of the original text, b) have a policy of only storing URLs if they contained annotations

This is actually fairly trivial to do right.
Except the article ignores the part of the agriculture industry that's the actual problem:

seconded. memory = fast is not the point. the point is that it gives you specific data types that do specific things and since it's in memory it does those things very quickly. that said, you need to implement your own clustering or sharing solution. jury is still out on the new cluster code, i havent reviewed it yet.

Look at that huge list of big name clients. Either those clients were using Nebula for a very, very small operation or Nebula wasn't pricing their products accordingly. I mean, Lockheed alone should have been enough to have basically unlimited money.

There's something else here that we haven't been told.

Maybe for base load, but desalination can run intermittently during sunlit hours only. You only have to stay ahead on average..
IEEE Spectrum commissioned an authorized translation of the original article and interviewed Masahiro Mori in June 2012 in http://spectrum.ieee.org/automaton/robotics/humanoids/an-unc... Mori's insight was that people would react with revulsion to humanlike robots, whose appearance resembled, but did not quite replicate, that of a real human. He called this phenomenon bukimi no tani (the term "uncanny valley" first appeared in the 1978 book Robots: Fact, Fiction, and Prediction, written by Jasia Reichardt).

I think you are confusing anonymity with something else. Bitcoin is entirely anonymous, but all transactions are public. You can create as many wallets and keys as you want, and you don't have to tell anyone you own them.
If you are looking for sincerity and fair-mindedness few people would advise you to look first among politicians.

All human government is an attempt to manage human wickedness. If we were not wicked we would need no laws.
Microsoft's biggest issue here is that there is no such thing as a "modern" browser that runs only on one unreleased platform (Windows), that is closed source, and that cannot also run on mobile devices with significant market share (iOS, Android). Regardless of how polished, fast, and great Microsoft makes this, without the above it will never be a "modern" browser, nor gain any significant market share, simply because developers won't support it.

One of the primary reasons why Microsoft needs to immediately halt, backpedal and release a version that can run on Linux/OSX (beyond the obvious need to port to Android/iOS) is that so many high quality sites are tested using automated testing suites (through Selenium, or otherwise), and those testing instances typically run through bash shells / scripts. While I'm sure you could jury-rig Windows 10 to do that (I've used bash on Windows previously, via Git Bash), you would need to rewrite extensive build and testing tool chains to use non-Unix-y commands --- and even then, you'll likely find many of the open source libraries you rely on are broken, unmaintained, or otherwise unusable on Windows.

As an anecdote, and fairly recently, I actually tried getting unit tests for a pre-existing, fairly sizable project with 10s of developers and many hundreds of thousands of lines of code to run on Windows, and realized it was cheaper to just hand all the developers Mac Books than to either train them on installing Unix tool chains on Windows, or on "properly" using Linux -- especially considering they were not responsible to write the unit tests, just run them. It's also much easier to cross-build for Windows from a Unix system, thus it was possible to completely eliminate Windows in the release process almost completely, other than for later manual testing/verification that can't be automated anyways.
Which is exactly my point. There shouldn't be anything for a 'server' to 'log'. If there is, then it's not anonymous, not 'secure' either depending on the definition you use, and it should not be advertised as such.

At best, it's pseudonymous.
Oregon would make much more sense than Alaska.

The distance between Los Angeles and the southernmost point of Alaska's panhandle down the side of Canada^ is comparable to the distance between Los Angeles and New Orleans. Terrain aside, it'd make as much sense for Los Angeles to tap the Mississippi.

Really what California needs to do is suck it up and build desalination plants. They are used in many other parts of the world, despite what some Californian pundits claim about the cost of desalination. Leaching off neighbors is not a long-term solution. Californians need to break themselves of that habit (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Water_Wars).

^(And I suspect you'd need to go way further north in Alaska than that to find a Californian-sized fresh water supply...)
Roundabouts are OK but they don't work so well on multi-lane roads. The multi-lane roundabouts I've seen are confusing to most motorists and tend to slow to a crawl. The problem is there is limited space to change lanes once you are on the roundabout, so you have to enter in the proper lane based on where you want to exit. Inevitably there's someone who didn't use the proper lane and everything clogs up while they stop and wait for a gap in the next lane (which happens rarely because roundabouts promote continuous traffic flow).

I'm still new to building APIs with Django. Last time I was immersed in Django, I was focused on server-side rendering.

I forgot to mention, part of the reason I went to Rails is its built-in support for building JSON APIs (at the time there was no clear winner among the Django API frameworks).

But now Django Rest Framework has matured quite well. By deriving everything from the model layer, it can help keep your API code nice and DRY.
I think the point is that the context is fundamentally different:

"In short, Franklin was not describing some tension between government power and individual liberty. He was describing, rather, effective self-government in the service of security as the very liberty it would be contemptible to trade. Notwithstanding the way the quotation has come down to us, Franklin saw the liberty and security interests of Pennsylvanians as aligned."

I see a lot of good general advice, but not too many specific examples. Here's a very specific one...

If you want to do C and get an introduction to a bit of arm assembly, you may want to contribute a new model build to CHDK, the Canon Hack Developer Kit. There are always new models out that need support, like the Canon PowerShot Elph(US)/Ixus(EU) 160.

See http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Porting for some hints to get started.

The CHDK core devs are really friendly and often available on IRC and forums. That helps a lot.
Yes, it is!

Since DDG does it quick, I'll use MD5 as an example, but don't ever use MD5 as your hash!

An attacker already knows a user's plaintext password is "pass123" and no salting has occurred. He can search for "32250170a0dca92d53ec9624f336ca24" in the database and find 5 other users that have the same hash. He now knows that those 5 people have the same password.

Meanwhile:

Johnpass123: e3445c82086cff25a79dcbbe59b569d1
Mattpass123: fd6d563970fd6ead6391a997a5e06d80

Moral: It's not about how hard it is to crack. It's about comparisons of hashed values without cracking necessary.

One of the problems could be that you have javascript running on the page that takes decisions based on the size of fonts. Now if those fonts are loaded asynchronously in the background, your page may end up looking garbled. Unless, of course, the loading of the css triggers a re-evaluation of the javascript code. But this makes the code even more hairy.
Well if it's just OpenStack, or if it's software built on top of OpenStack, it's fully possible to migrate to another OpenStack vendor. Then again, that supposes the product is open source.
I agree with Simon Wardley here [0] - OpenStack is a joke (from a business perspective) and all companies trying to build businesses on it will perish as Amazon builds a dominant monopoly.

EDIT: Not companies that use OpenStack, companies that attempt to sell "enterprise clouds" based on OpenStack (like Nebula).

As I mentioned in the other thread, the ESP8266 is a Wifi chip that you can buy for $5/each on an order of 1, and can run custom code, so you'd only need one of those plus a case, battery and button. You could probably build a button for less than $10, without even ordering large quantities.

Not necessarily. In a well-timed system, cars that travel the posted speed limit are indirectly rewarded by not needing to stop. Going too fast or too slow would mean you would be out of sync with the timed system.

A reason to hash cookies/tokens on the server side is so you don't have to reset them if your server database is compromised. A fast cryptographically secure hash with digest size equal to the token size is a good choice.

This also has the benefit of defending against timing attacks, for example, if you don't completely trust your code or the compiler / interpreter to not optimize your "constant time" comparison.
Almonds originally came out of countries like Spain, Portugal, Greece and Italy. All of which are members of the EU, which in most cases has stricter environmental policies than just about anywhere else in the world.

The problem with your statement is that, in this case, we are that country lacking suitable environmental policy. If almonds weren't brought to California, they would potentially be more expensive, but they would also be grown in regions where they naturally occur and under laws that are more strict than our own.
You can time traffic lights to encourage calmer traffic, by having "green waves" paced for bicycles, e.g. ~15 mph. Drivers should eventually clue in and slow down between lights since it just makes them wait longer.

At least according to the FCC, number portability was intended to allow moving between service providers. If you move across the country, there's no guarantee you'll be able to keep that number if you initiate service with another carrier. So in a sense, area codes are "supposed" to be meaningful (even if that's not so true today).

Very much so! I'd love some help writing/documenting/explaining to people a lot of the work I've done behind Cayley (http://github.com/google/cayley). I can explain it very well one-on-one or to a developer but my writing/explaining/diagramming gets a little esoteric for the people at large. Even planning/prioritizing some things would be useful.

So if graph databases strike you as cool new technologies and you'd like to learn more, check it out and feel free to drop me a line personally at barak (at) cayley.io
If it's fixed it is limited to just preventing rainbow tables from being used in practice. If they have a copy of your database already ex-filtrated, there's a pretty good chance that they also have access to "somesalt65634734" so while the attacker certainly isn't going to be able to find a rainbow table with every password prefixed with "somesalt65634734" they certainly won't just check every combination of a 32 character password, they'll just check passwords 8 characters or less starting with "somesalt65634734" and if it's unique across your whole site and your site has N users then they just sped up their password cracking with a factor of N.

If N = 1000000 and it's just SHA("somesalt65634734" + password) then the attacker is just about guaranteed to be rolling in tons of cracked passwords in no time. Whereas with bcrypt or a unique salt per password you don't get that massive speedup by a factor of N.

Why aren't they simply boiling the water, nuclear powered? That article says membrane desal leaves half the water extra salty, is that right? Does boiling it leave that much? I'd imagine there'd just be a concentrated, mostly-solid byproduct.

I'm probably wrong else everyone would already be doing this. OTOH, many people and places seem to be going against nuclear power, so perhaps it isn't just a technical issue. At any rate, that article just left more questions than answers.
Dart Language Asynchrony Support: Phase 2
Atcore Systems: http://www.atcoresystems.com/

Atlanta, GA

We're hiring all levels of PHP developers. Knowledge of JS, esp. Backbone and Underscore, is a big plus.

I'm a software dev, not a recruiter, so I can't give you a fancy description.

Basically, we build custom CRM solutions using PHP and JavaScript. At 15 employees or so, we're a small company. We're not a rapidly expanding, venture capitally funded start-up. Just a small, growing business. We work humane hours.

I've had more fun at this gig than at any other job I've ever had. The people make the place great.

If you're interested, contact us via our website or Twitter, @AtcoreSystems.
