Pixlee | San Francisco, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

Pixlee is revolutionizing the relationship between people and brands. We help companies leverage customer photos/videos from social media to improve marketing.

We work with over 100+ customers, including top brands such as Converse, Kenneth Cole, UGG Australia, Mattel, Charlotte Russe, Marriott Hotels, and AMC Theatres, to drive higher online conversion, increase performance of owned media, and create a more authentic brand experience.
A graduate of the Stanford StartX accelerator, Pixlee is an Andreessen Horowitz and XSeed Capital portfolio company. As a rapidly growing startup, we are constantly looking for talented people to join the Pixlee team and to help us revolutionize the intersection of big data and social media.

At Pixlee we work hard, love to learn, and value teamwork and humility. We’ve got a big vision and we’re looking for game changers to join our team.

We look for talented, high-potential individuals who aren’t jerks. Our proposition to them is simple: Pixlee offers a unique opportunity to thrive and grow rapidly in a small-team startup environment operating at big-company scale. Our customers are some of the largest brands in the world and everything you do here affects millions of consumers.

For me, I've really felt that I've been able to really grow very rapidly, and also been given the autonomy to make many decisions you can't make at a much larger startup. Its a very tight knit group, and we like to have fun.

We believe in using the right technology for the task, and we use a mix of rails, backbone, python, scala, elasticsearch, and postgres.

Insikt (pronounced “in-seekt”) is a white label loan origination and investing platform that enables any brand to lend to its customers and any accredited investor to invest in consumer loan portfolios.

Insikt was born out of our realization that banks will not be the lenders of tomorrow – brands will. Traditional banks, saddled with new rules and regulation, are no longer in the business of taking risk and making loans and cannot be relied on to deliver credit access and opportunity to the masses. Instead, tomorrow’s lenders will be media companies, retailers and prominent brands that have deep relationships with their customers and want to step in to help their customers get a fair loan. But, to do it right, they need scoring, servicing, technology and capital — all of which are expensive and difficult to build. So, why build it if you don’t have to? This is the future of lending. Any brand or company can be a lender. We’ve launched “Lending as a Service” (LaaS) to power this transformation.

We are bringing together the best and brightest to solve real problems in the financial industry. We are looking for diverse talent across many different domains including designers, front end and back end development, product management, analytics and data science, credit, operations, and capital markets.We want passionate, fun-loving people who can contribute positively to our company and our culture. Let us know if this sounds like you.

> Tolkien's created nostalgia-based mythology is similar to ISIS' created nostalgia-based mythology. Main difference is that Tolkien actually lived in pre-WWI Britain, no one in ISIS lived during the Caliphate.

Another main difference is no significant group is selling Tolkien's fantasy as reality and the basis for running real societies (outside of other fictional works, notably S. M. Stirling's "Novels of the Change".)

I see Aaron Swartz as the model for this study, but I don't think he was a very good example of an 'entrepreneur'. He disliked business and making money and this wasn't a secret.

I would classify him as a community organizer and political activist.

Kitsune provides useful abstractions for modifying your program for runtime updating and tools for automating state transformation between versions of your program.

It would be entirely reasonable to implement DSU all within an app's own codebase, particularly until there's a production-ready library/tool-set. The downside would be that you'd probably end up re-implementing a lot of what Kitsune provides.

For our purposes (evaluating Kitsune-style updating on a variety of server programs), it made sense that we'd want to have a common toolset that we applied to all of the programs.

The CloudFlare blog is awesome. This post was succinct, but super valuable to teams who need to manage versioning, etc. (really there are tons of use cases). I like how they admitted that they were doing things inefficiently and explained what they learned to make their dev lives easier. Thanks again, CloudFlare!

Even then it rarely happens.

Although theoretically a contingent worker could be paid more because his employer sheds risks, practically contingent workers are often paid horribly.

Just to take an example, it is often shocking how ill-paid and overworked adjunct faculty are. Go look at at the tenured professors and you see they are well paid AND have security. If adjuncts got high pay and the tenured had security it might work out that way, but it never does.

High IQ? Really??
I've never really explicitly thought of it this way, but you're exactly right. In a well-designed monolith (or early on in it's life), there should be a distinct flow of dependencies. However, over time, with muliple devs coming and going, and requirements piling on, is that the dependencies turn into a ball of yarn. Having a physical deployment boundary might reduce this aspect of intertwined modules.
I am wondering, what exacly is holding back the technology? Why isn't it there yet?
Hmm..what would happen if you were to attempt to write that time to an RTC in that window? I suppose some RTC parts might be designed to reject those writes. Does the RTC interface logic in the OS just not care about leap seconds and therefore misinterprets the time? Or does it need some sort of special correction for this case?

I think the author is talking more 'meta' than this, about the dark side of the deep human desires and archetypes that these stories tap into. It goes far beyond the near-universal story template of the 'return of the king.' That's just one permutation. What it's really all about is the need for meaning and significance to one's life.

There's a light side too. The human need for transcendent, powerful, meaningful motives can inspire amazing achievements.

One of my favorite modern crusades-in-the-making is the colonize Mars crowd. I could see it drawing its appeal from much the same psychological basis as ISIS, but channeling that energy in a much more interesting and productive route. I can also imagine the soul searching articles of future Bourgeois critics: "why would upper middle class young people with promising futures give it all up to go try to settle a desolate, airless, radiation-bathed desert and likely die in the process?" Yet I predict they would, and in far greater numbers than we see joining ISIS.

The need for meaning and significance can drive people to do the near-impossible and inspire us all, or it can drive them to take a gun and shoot up a school or go join a death cult. I personally suspect we'll see the latter in proportion to the absence of the former. One thing this author doesn't really address is how the appeal of ISIS (and other smaller-scale episodes of apocalyptic-nihilistic violence) is rooted in the banality of our culture, and what we might do about that. We spend an amazing amount of time and energy on worthless bullshit, and an equally amazing amount of energy convincing ourselves it's important.

Interviews: Linus Torvalds Answers Your Question
To expand on this a little, here is a thing that you can't translate to most programming languages. By defining a simple, pattern-based macro we can get much closer to the Dart version:

(func: hello() => (displayln "Hello world"))
(hello)

All you need to do this - to change the language syntax to look like that - is to write this:

(define-syntax func:
(syntax-rules (=>)
[(_ name (formal ...) => expr ...)
(define name (lambda (formal ...) expr ...))]))
Is this a sign of Sublime Text inching it's way towards open source? If Sublime Text went full on open-source would it decimate Atom? I'd like to think so.

I just had to move back to Sublime for the third time because Atom would choke on a 400 line Ruby file. I was using vanilla Atom with RuboCop and it's linter, and stutter-city.

Should the owner decide to open source Sublime Text, it would instantly put it with the likes of Vim and Emacs in my opinion.

Stop down-voting ideas other than yours
to all the hackers:
i see more and more recently people down-voting people for no real good reason other than different opinion.

IMHO down-vote should be to flag false/bad or not useful comments, not to ignore anyone who thinks a bit different from you.
keep this community live by allowing different comments and let people speak freely on out-of-consensus topics. it can only help the discussions.

Hi! We're Nylas and we're looking for help building the next generation email platform. We're building a missing piece of Internet infrastructure and are looking for frontend application engineers and designers and backend systems and infrastructure/operations engineers to join us.

Companies are building their core businesses around our email API right now, and that means we have to be reliable, up all the time, and fast. We have more data for a single user than in most startups' entire database. We're scaling heavily and if you have experience with automated deployments, debugging running systems, release engineering, and on-call schedules, but are still comfortable writing code, this job might be for you. :)

Many people spend their entire days buried in mail clients which haven't significantly changed in years. Yet have you ever met anyone who really loves their email experience? We want to change that. We're building a frontend framework to power the next generation of mail apps. Sound exciting to you? Apply here.

== We're particularly looking for folks who ==

* Take personal pride in their work and value craftsmanship, autonomy and ownership.

* Want the chance to step up and lead a team.

* Put the work before ego. We've got each others' backs, and we want you to be with us on that.

== A bit more about us ==

* Our backend is built on tools like Python, Flask, gevent, nginx, MySQL, AWS, and Debian. We've been careful to keep our architecture componentized.

* Our frontend projects use Coffeescript, React, (Re)Flux, SQL for offline caching, Electron (Atom Shell), and no jQuery.

* Tons of our code is open source, including our main sync engine. Check it out: https://github.com/nylas

* We're 40% women on our team of 13 (12 engineers), including 1 of 2 cofounders. We want to make that number 50%.

* We have an open vacation policy and value personal responsibility and ownership. Benefits include full health, dental, vision, commuter, and lunch at the office every day. Some remote work / work-from-home is OK too.

Apply at https://nylas.com/jobs - you can also ping me directly (jennie at nylas dot com), I'm one of the platform engineers. We're a diverse team and encourage applications from those of all backgrounds.
It's good that this is fixed but why is it taking 14 years to fix bugs?
Anyone out there using Angular and Firebase? That's been my go-to "stack" for achieving 3-way binding of the UI, javascript model, and remote database. The only downside is that you're locked into using firebase as a service, can't host it locally, and you're limited to what their API supports. It's amazingly fast in terms of ability to churn out features.

Meteor seems to be the only thing that comes close to giving offering the same amount of productivity as I can get using Angularfire.

Has anyone used both, that can comment?

Here's the ST forum announcement[0] from June 16th. This is a good step in the right direction for ST. It seems that JPS is increasingly relying on the open source community for ST development, which could lead to some awesome developments in the future.

I think it would be even more awesome if JPS open sourced the ST Package API. I think that could really improve the state of package development in the future, and is one of the areas that I think is still hurting the growth of ST.
