Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2023) on Wednesday March 01, 2023 @05:49PM (#34989436)
Alice & Bob | Software engineering (multiple roles) | Full-time | Paris, France | https://alice-bob.com/

We are a Paris-based startup founded in 2020, competing in the race towards building the world’s first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer.

Our approach to error correction is based on the cat qubit, which belongs to the family of superconducting qubits. It is designed to autonomously suppress certain types of errors at the hardware level and was developed by Alice & Bob and its academic partners. This allows scaling up the number of qubits in a more hardware efficient way, and puts us in the race against tech giants such as AWS (which are also following this approach), Google and IBM.

We are looking for software engineers to help building the framework controlling the hardware equipment and experiments, as well as the toolkit to automate designing and simulating the superconducting chips.

* Software Engineer - Instrument Compiler https://apply.workable.com/alice-bob/j/E4AC939F65/ (C/C++, LLVM, Python)

* Software Engineer - Design Toolkit Developer https://apply.workable.com/alice-bob/j/9A84BDD1B3/ (Python)

* Software Engineer - Experimentation framework https://apply.workable.com/alice-bob/j/8787158587/ (Python, C)

We are 60 and counting (PhDs, engineers) and growing fast! Feel free to reach out to know more (alexandre dot thomas at alice-bob.com) or to apply directly.

Ask HN: What are some recommended patterns when using Web Components?

The MDN Web docs [0] are useful to understand what are custom elements, the shadow DOM, or templates and slots. But as someone starting with web components and front-end stuff in general, I was wondering about the recommended approaches/design patterns when building more complex apps ?For instance, how should components communicate with each other? By using a parent element systematically,...

Sorry, not associated with them!

Actually I have an older account (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=alexandrethm, also active on github and others), and I simply created this one since I wanted to change username (you can't with HN) and set-up a custom domain email with this new name.

I am not related to them, but I guess I probably should have included other links about services I was thinking to use, or no link at all.

Ask HN: How do you use email aliases?

With a number of email providers you can create a number of email aliases that will redirect emails to your main inbox. This can allow you to filter incoming mail by having e.g. [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]. Some services allow you to have unlimited aliases (I'm thinking of https://simplelogin.io/), which makes it possible to create a new alias for every website...
