Carbon Five | Chattanooga, TN ONSITE |Test Driven Web Developer | http://www.carbonfive.com/

Carbon Five Web Developers have 2 or more years of professional web development experience and already understand that deploying untested code to production is betting against the future. You're a productive member of your team, but you're not yet ready to lead teams. Maybe you want to lead some day, but need the support to get there; or maybe it's just not your thing. You should...

★ Have experience with JavaScript and Ruby.

★ Have strong communication and collaboration skills.

★ Enjoy pair programming (we may not pair all the time, but everyone pairs).

★ Be curious about other languages and platforms (Go, Swift, iOS, ...).

★ Enjoy being given goals and finding ways to achieve them.

★ Value Agile XP Practices (Iterative development,
Refactoring, TDD/BDD, CI/CD, ...).

★ Prior consulting or freelancing experience is a bonus.

★ We're currently using Ruby (mostly Rails) and JavaScript (Node.js) on the back-end. On the front-end we're building sophisticated clients with HTML5/JavaScript and Native iOS (Obj-C, Swift). That's where we are today, but there's no telling how that might evolve over the next few years. We’re always trying new things to see what works for us and our clients.

Our developers get a tremendous amount of experience because of how we work with one another and with our clients. Carbon Five is a great place to learn a ton and have a great time doing it.

Katasi | Boulder, CO | Engineering | Full Time | On Site Only

A company I work for is looking to hire a senior Java developer (yes, I work for two different companies). Katasi is helping stop unsafe driving by limiting cellphone functionality. Right now it is a small engineering team. They have a POC running, and are looking to build the next generation of their system.

They are looking for someone who can take requirements and run with them. We are using Camel and Mongo and Rabbit MQ, among other technologies. You can see more here: http://groovement.com/company/ or feel free to ping me with questions.
He's not superman, duh, he's Tony Stark.
That is a fair point and a valid opinion. I don't mind using the browser for streaming music, especially when it's being chosen for me and my interaction is minimal (i.e. Pandora, plug.dj, etc.) I was particularly interested in Apple's radio offerings and am cranky that I'd need iTunes for that, which I really dislike.

OTOH, they are going to provide an Android app in the fall. Maybe they'll provide something web-based as well.
Sure, they use the same amount of cpu and bandwidth, they have the same effect when seen from peripheral vision (or even audio), and also have the same effect on the usability of the page, sure

Please keep denying the bleeding obvious (oh and they clearly have different effects on buying decisions)
I used to see these guys at every bar in Austin. I used it once and then never used it again. It was almost more of a hassle using the app than just simply using my credit card.
He is. The biggest thing holding back renewables is storage. Distributed battery storage is one of Musk's projects.
The 'About Us' page says "As of today, the following companies have joined Advanced Erlang Initiative" under the "Founding Companies" header - which suggests more are able to join. Would be better if it were more explicit though I guess.

I'm really looking forward to seeing it grow, I've already found the videos very useful and the workshops look like a great idea. The more companies supporting Elixir and Erlang the better :)
Since 802.11n was the first standard to support packet aggregation, then dropping back to a/g will probably work, unless clients cannot be told by the AP to not treat the network as a mixed a/g/n network.

>I've talked to developers who have taken a single app that worked perfectly fine and split it into five or six services just because "microservices!" Now they're stuck maintaining five apps, five APIs, etc

And then when they need help fixing the mess they can call in a consultant wielding Fowlers latest book, or go to a bunch of new monolithichitecture conferences where people put up slides full of memes mocking microservices.

Truly we are blessed to live in an era of such efficient job creation.

SEEKING WORK - Remote & Mumbai, India.

We are a team of 2 developers and looking to build a portfolio of mobile apps on Android and IOS. Although we are relatively new to mobile app development we are experienced developers on (node.js, express/sails js), (C++, yacc, flex), Frontend Programming using angular js. Since we are looking to build a portfolio, we will do your Android or IOS app at a fixed price of USD 2000 (per platform) for a reasonably sized app. You will get a native app - Swift or Obj-C on IOS and of course, Java on Android (using fragments).

We are also comfortable with Backend development using node.js - so we will have no trouble doing any backend api integration in either IOS or Android.

Since "Reasonable Sized App" seems a little vague, it should be something you think can be finished in 15 days to a month. We will evaluate the app and confirm this to you. Ideally, this should be an app you do not have a hard deadline on and it would be good if you have design specs.

We are looking to take 1 or 2 projects at this price.

UO took over much of my life as a youth. I still have yet to discover a game that has the depth that was found in UO. Every once in awhile I find myself playing on the free shards. The complete customization of everything was what really intrigued me. You could buy a house. You were able to permanently impact the game landscape with this house - you controlled a piece of the game! This concept blew my mind. The economy was also incredibly complicated. I remembering being a part of a player-run auction guild. It was essentially a part time job. I had to build relationships with people in order to secure this job - just like real life.
Don't forget that pretty much every BSD flavor is actively working on their own systemd-like system.

I agree with the earlier comment that it sounds interesting. I'd be more excited if there was a clear means for smaller companies to join the initiative. Is this intended as a commercial joint venture by ProcessOne and Quvik, or as an open alliance to advance and advocate Erlang (and Elixir)?
> Is this really about terrorism?

No, it's about children. UK politicians really love children.
Yeah I've learned to show respect to Gates too
Nah, maybe it is for you, but for me, there are other (completely different) games where I reminisce in that way.

>UO had a great risk and reward environment.
This is it.

Playing this game with my best friend when we were 12/13 was a magical experience in my life. There was this awesome sense of freedom/adventure/opportunity/risk that no other game I've played has been able to capture. Though I imagine it is probably due to me outgrowing MMO's I still like to believe a game could come around and sweep me off my feet again. Maybe VR can provide that novel experience again.

The emulation community for UO was what introduced me to programming and now 15 years later I am grateful to say I'm working on my own game in UE4. I owe a lot to Ultima Online.
Innovation quite often comes through government subsidies

It's almost like an incentive to build technology better and cheaper so it can be mass-produced and everyone benefits

whoa
risk vs reward, this is what made this game so great.

Only a handful of games have come to life with the same original "spirit", Asheron's call, Darkfall Online and Albion Online to name a few.

UO is a real world with consequence, your actions really matter and the people around you can be a threat at any given time or help you in unimaginable ways, this alone is the best feeling you can get from playing an MMO. Players are the content not the scripted AI.

Today, Underdog.io is a curated marketplace for talent. We connect amazing people with founders and hiring managers at top startups.

We don’t charge placement fees because we’re not recruiters. We’re building technology to reduce the noise of the job search and match. We started Underdog.io because we experienced the pains associated with (1) hiring while working at top startups in NYC and (2) looking for new opportunities.

Our platform is currently live in NYC and SF, where we work with 160 awesome startups. We’ve had to turn away one of every two companies that have tried to join the network.

As we scale, we’ll focus on building tools for candidates to organize, search, and discover new job opportunities. In our view of the future, job candidates don’t receive unsolicited outreach from recruiters and companies don’t pay placement fees for the vast majority of their hires. Job search is organized and talented candidates have more high-quality options.

We’re built with Python/Flask, Javascript/Node.js, PostgreSQL, Elastic Search, S3. And we're big supporters of open source. Our Github: https://github.com/underdogio

I disagree on it being the only game. There are people I played EQ with from 10 years ago who I am still in touch with and would consider friends, and we spent a lot of time in the game talking about just about everything.

I also had the same experience with people in quake that I played with - I am sure if I caught up with some of the guys from the swedish QWCTF scene back in the day we would have a bunch of things to talk about, same with the community around the webgame Utopia.

I think it depends on how much time you put into the game and how engaged you are with it. Communities can develop around all types of games, but I agree that UO was a very engaging game and I still remember the people I played UO with 17 years later, even though I am not in touch with them anymore.

Not a whole lot of supporting evidence for how it "changed popular music", rather it just becoming more sophisticated as time went on by the technology allowing for more complex structures and bringing in well-known artists. Video game music is still very much a niche genre, regardless of how complex it is. Surprised Michael Jackson wasn't mentioned for his helping out with the Sonic 3 soundtrack, probably one of the greatest from the 16 bit era.
I stop you right at the term 'court'. The doors are locked and all proceedings are done in secret with no counterparty. I say this 'court' doesn't conform to its definition of a "place where justice is administered". Maybe "court theatre" or "cargo cult court" might be a more accurate term ?
Excellent idea, but please make videos not 85 page slide shows!

I'm thinking a video playthrough of the process, with audio over top explaining and giving insight...
That's not a fair comparison, because the FISA court isn't proving guilt, it's requesting a warrant by attempting to prove reasonable suspicion. It would be a fair comparison if you compared them to the percentage-granted for regular search-warrants, and what I can find online seems to indicate that it's fairly high for those as well, again because they're not proving guilt.
