Connexity - Camarillo, CA (Los Angeles area) | on-site | http://connexity.com

Are you interested in learning advertising tech from the inside out? We're looking for a talented software engineer who takes their personal development seriously and seeks to make a huge impact.

You'll be working alongside a small, driven team right in the heart of the profit center. Our division of Connexity works in online display advertising through RTB, and we run 50 to 100 million impressions each day. Our total transaction volume is between 5 and 10 billion per day, and I'd bet you a beer we've served ads on nearly every site you've ever visited.

We're primarily looking for someone to contribute to our Rails app. It's used to administer hundreds of advertising campaigns across hundreds of publisher sites. It's not just boring CRUD. It's the heart of our display advertising business. The business folks will know you, and you'll find that excellence will stir up a tremendous amount of appreciation for your work.

This role is a great way to learn advertising tech at scale as well as other tools. In addition to Rails work, you'd get hands on experience with Redis, Hbase, PostgreSQL, R and Scala. Several on the team started in the Rails app and have moved into other areas of interest (low-latency RTB bidder written in C, sophisticated reporting pipelines or novel optimization algorithms). It's really possible to get bored around here unless you're a boring person.

Our team is sharp and works well together. We enjoy perks such as daily paid lunch, a 9/80 schedule (to get every other Friday off) and unlimited vacation; the culture of our team recognizes and respects the importance of your non-work life. Also, Ventura county is a pretty nice place to live/work (unless you hate temperate coastal weather). If you've got Rails or other relevant web app experience, that's a good start. More importantly, you'll be eager to learn display advertising inside and out. Attitude, ambition and sound judgement trump experience with a specific set of tools.

We're a small team within a medium-sized organization, and we work hard to keep the small-team vibe while availing ourselves of the best bits from the mother ship.

Unless you prefer to start with a HR-oriented chat, you can reach me (a lead engineer on the team) at david.larsen@connexity.com.
The Machine was canceled in 2015: http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/05/hp-the-machine-no-memrist...

There is no Machine. There never was any Machine. The Machine is an urban myth, a grand illusion, something to give your life meaning, but which is in fact not there.

Someone probably made a nice sum from the temporary stock bump...
> You're describing Turing completeness, which is a property of all general purpose languages.

What? It's totally irrelevant here.

> In the context of programming languages, "subset" implies that one language is identical in form and semantics to the other,

Exactly. And, say, a Pascal implemented as a thin macro layer on top of a Lisp is semantically 100% equivalent to a standalone Pascal.

In other words, you can build a Pascal (undistinguishable from the "real" one) on top of Scheme, but you cannot build Scheme on top of Pascal.

Rap battle: East Coast versus West Coast – who has the best burgers?
Position:	CTO

Location:	NY Metro (ideal), but will look at Remote (Continental 48 States)

Company:	Wine Kloud – www.winekloud.com

_____

COMPANY OVERVIEW:

Wine Kloud is a content curator of daily wine deals from over 1,000 retailers nationwide. WK leverages the hottest trends (daily deals) in popular culture and marries them with wine. Think Kayak for travel meets wine. And the timing is perfect. Why? Wine Kloud is part of an industry segment that tends to be behind the tech curve as compared to its target audience – wine drinkers! We are not only prepared to change the way an industry operates, but set to change the way millions of consumers buy wine. That is powerful and the CTO will be an integral part that makes it all happen.

WK has not launched yet, but will be live in a couple of weeks. The initial buildout was outsourced to a development firm. We have secured funding and will be happy to disclose all of that information to serious and interested candidates.

_____

POSITION DESCRIPTION/REQUIREMENTS:

We are in search of a team member, not a rogue. We are collaborators, not dictators. Sounds cliché, but very true. We want to foster an environment in which we all have valuable input and can work positively and effectively toward the common goals of the company. To be clear, the individual we hire will have full direction over the tech strategy, but that strategy will be designed and created as a result of the management goals, which this person will help establish.

We need someone who can innovate, plan, build, implement, and drive all of the company’s tech initiatives, including coding. While we have plans to build out a team underneath this person in the very near future, in the beginning, they will have to roll up their sleeves and code. This is not a country club position in which they delegate. This is a startup. This individual will also be responsible for maintaining all aspects of our software, from debugging to taking preventative measures to ensure uptime.

This person’s actions will directly shape the company. Their stamp will be all over Wine Kloud. This is a big role and requires someone with the experience and acumen to fill it. We need someone who is passionate about building and problem solving. Someone who can contribute to and incorporate the company vision. Someone entrepreneurial in nature with the ability to lead and, ideally, successful startup experience. And possibly most important, someone who is committed to the success of the organization. We are not looking for a year-long commitment from someone. We need someone onboard who will see out the company’s success.

_____

TECH PROFILE:

Here’s the tech stack that our developers are working with. The ideal hire will know these well:

- Python

- Django

- MySQL

- Redis

- Celery

- Stream Framework

- Python Social Auth

- Apache

- 3rd Party Services like Payment Gateways

Oracle Data Cloud | Westminster, CO | Engineers | Full Time | On Site Only

The company I work for is looking to hire engineering talent. Here are two job descriptions in particular:

Sr. Data Scientist: https://oracle.taleo.net/careersection/2/jobdetail.ftl?job=1...

Sr. Cloud Systems Engineer: https://oracle.taleo.net/careersection/2/jobdetail.ftl?job=1...

A couple of notes (personal notes, not the corp speak in the job reqs): This is on-site work in Westminster, about 25 min from Boulder and 30 min from Denver. We operate in small teams (3-8 engineers) with a fair bit of autonomy--use Rally and agile processes. Quarterly hackweeks. Forward looking engineering culture--continuous deployment, testing.

Feel free to ping me with questions.

The governments will simply step up their particular set of sticks and carrots to compel companies to be incentivized to not do those kinds of things.

What, did you, the cattle, think you could revolt against your rancher masters with impunity forever?

What do you think Google will say and do if the Government suggests giving preferences and lavish benefits to Microsoft or vice versa?

The only thing that really can be done is getting politically involved. Politics, elections, transparency, combating corruption, digital activism, etc. are all the only way that this will ever be prevented from metastasizing into something far more devious and nefarious. I hate to say it, but the only solution is suffocating and starving our own governments into submission. We have bred a bred beasts and they are fed with endless and unrestrained taxing power, reality is that we really need to implement what Republicans pay lip service to .... actually cutting taxes. Cut, cut, cut, taxes; limit the tax money to a set amount which then forces the government to have to prioritize, that includes for the military. We have a sleeping demon on our hands with the current surveillance government, which is directly a result of the plundering bonanza of unlimited and unfettered funding for militarism under the guise of security and freedom from boogiemen we create.
.NET isn't relevant because Microsoft isn't trying to control it with the same kind of licensing terms that Oracle's using to try to ensure that anybody else's Java implementation adheres to their standards.
Objective-C vs. Swift messages dispatch (2014)
My favorite gaming magazine had a monthly column about Ultima. It was an interesting read. Then I bought a disk with Ultima around... probably 9 years ago. I don't remember whether I played on the official servers. But my first experience was clicking on a dummy a hundred times to raise my attack skill. Then one of my friends gave me a set of better armor. And then I was randomly killed by some higher-level player. And then I stopped playing. Then I quit.

Frankly, I don't understand why all those "interactive world" features people keep talking about cannot be decoupled from grinding and crappy PvP system.

Though the thing that completely cured me from online gaming was a certain MUD I was playing at the time (for several month, for at least an hour most of the days).

In the technology industry, what other heroes do we have to inspire us, if not Musk?
Yup.

Basically it comes down to "If I were a really rich guy then I would totally make electric cars and space stuff, that's awesome".

I guess he also managed not to step on any toes or mudyd the waters too much - the B&M Gates foundation does amazing work, but there's the legacy of MS and its dirty tricks there. And Steve Jobs did... what with his fortune? Obviously we don't know what he might have done were he still alive.

That's not to say other billionaires are less deserving of praise, or that Musk actually deserves the hero-worship he gets, just that Musk is a bit of a fantasy for nerds I suppose.

That's a common problem with globally inferencing compilers, you strictly cannot know who's right about a type.

I think that's a good reason to prefer a language with local type inference, but no type inference across function boundaries. It saves you from too much boiler plate to type and has (IMHO) better developer ergonomics.

But...has he? He's CEO of a marginally-profitable electric car company that's propped up by hefty government subsidies, and he's got a rocket company that may or may not eventually make it significantly cheaper to launch things into orbit (and again, gets almost all its funding from government contracts). Oh, and there's the HyperLoop, if that ever happens / is even possible.

I don't want to come off as too much of a hater, because the problems SpaceX and Tesla (note: the companies, not the man) are trying to solve are genuinely extremely difficult[0] but they sure haven't "created solutions" for them yet. From the hype you read, you'd almost think SpaceX had successfully recovered at least one reusable rocket.

Really, Musk's only incontestably successful venture was PayPal.
