Vivodyne | Senior Full Stack Software Engineer | Full time | Onsite (5 days) SF

Our robots grow thousands of human tissues and test them at scale, so we can predict which medicines will work safely before they reach patients. You will build polished, high-performance web applications using React with FastAPI on the backend and Postgres as a database.

The speakers have a telnet interface and DLNA support, but no documentation and I was not able to make it work with MiniDLNA in a couple of hours of trying.

`git commit` has a `-v` option that adds the diff to the bottom of the commit message template so you can see it while you write the message.
I just tried this for a standup meeting, and the inability to tell who said what is a show stopper. You'll need to add speaker diarization for this to be useful for more than 1:1s.
Glad you're having fun, but it had the "website with autoplay" vibe.
Why in the world is there _background music_ when I start the app?!

Don”t most banks offer this exact service for free? My credit union calls it “bill pay.” I use it for exactly the use cases you list.

I think it means that it's like [Lunos](https://www.lunos.de/en/for-heat-recovery). The unit alternates between exhaust and intake every couple of minutes. The air being exhausted heats up a core, which in the next cycle warms the air from the outside. Lunos e2 is advertised to recover 90% of heat and 20–30% of humidity.
SpaceFN, so I can hold space and press HJKL for arrow keys.
The US Coast Guard cutter Healy (their largest ship and largest icebreaker) was in the area around that time. (Source: https://www.highnorthnews.com/en/usas-largest-icebreaker-nor...) It would make sense for them to help out.

Vivodyne | Senior Software Engineer (Front-End) | Remote U.S.

Vivodyne is a pre-series-A startup spun off from U. Penn. You'll be working on the web interface that scientists use to define studies that our robots will then perform by culturing, treating, and imaging human organoid tissues.

I back up my private SSH keys by printing them as QR codes.
Is there a good source for which makes, models, and model years “phone home”? I would absolutely take it into account when shopping for a new or used car, but I’ve had no luck with Googling.

Apple’s battery replacement service is about $50 including shipping. Took a little less than a week for me.

Resilience | Frontend, backend, full-stack | Elixir, AWS, ++ | Remote (US) | Full-time | https://resilience.com/biopharma-careers/, email [email protected]

At Resilience, we're building a platform for drug and vaccine manufacturing. The company is 14 months old. We have raised $1B and bought several factories, and we're building more. Our first big customer was announced a couple of weeks ago: we are going to be making mRNA for Moderna's coronavirus vaccine.

We aim to replace the expensive, slow process of industrializing and launching a pharmaceutical production process that today is preventing many new therapeutics from reaching the market. A customer should be able to build on our network and infrastucture, similar to how we've gotten used to building on AWS for cloud computing, with full visibility.

I'm a principal engineer on our product engineering team, the group that will build the software we need to make this happen. Hiring frontend, backend, and full-stack engineers at mid to senior levels. The little bit of backend code that we have so far is in Elixir. Remote, must be in the United States.

Alacrity works well on MacOS also. It gives you enough control that you can send meta (command) properly to readline, emacs, and whatever else is running in the terminal while letting some command chords be handled outside the terminal (e.g., command-tab, copy/paste, rectangle).

The numbers I get from mine match the power company’s daily numbers almost perfectly.

I learned that the radiant heat in the bathroom floor used very little electricity compared to heavy-hitter circuits like hot water, so it wasn’t worth adjusting the thermostat schedules and give up comfort.

We use it to keep an eye on how much energy we use for grow lights in the greenhouse.

As a bonus, the electricity usage of the well pump is a proxy for water level in the well.

I installed it last year. Very happy.
I put my Apple trackpad in front of my keyboard.
Re:Fish is not operational on a VT220 terminal (2015) on Thursday December 24, 2020 @01:52PM (#25530235)
I've always used ISO 8859-1 with VT terminals; there are only a few differences between it and the DEC character set.
