Re:Ask HN: Who is Hiring? (August 2011) on Monday August 01, 2011 @10:02AM (#2832161)
Houston, Texas

Erdos Miller is looking to hire software and hardware engineers. (www.erdosmiller.com)

We are a consulting group located in Houston that specializes in designing electronics and software for the Oil and Gas industry.

If you are hardware oriented, we're looking for experience with analog and digital design, micro-controllers, C/ASM development, PCB layout, schematic capture, and Simulation.

If you are software oriented we're looking for understanding of basic data-structures, ability to write atleast a couple of a languages, and some past reference-able work. (Hopefully on github or the like.) We primarily develop software in C#/Python/C and LabVIEW.

If you're LabVIEW oriented we're looking for a good understanding of hardware I/O, LabVIEW concepts like producer/consumer, and some example work.

We really prefer someone to be local, primarily as you'll need access to lots of equipment to get work done.

Please email me at [email protected] if you're interested.

Also: I run my own startup (oil and gas software/electronics.) I'm into programming (Python/LabVIEW) and electronics design. I play guitar and feel I'm pretty easy to get along with.

Ask HN: I need a place to stay in New York (Manhattan) quick

All,<p>I was planning a trip with a friend (girlfriend) to New York from June 20th to June 23rd. We had falling out earlier in the week, but I still have my ticket. I'd love to find some affordable accommodations so I can still go and experience the city. I'd like to keep my budget to less than $100 per night. You can reach me by email at [email protected], [email protected], or by...

Yeah! It's really awesome.

Well, there are a ton of Micro's today that can easily support that and there a ton that aren't. We work with high temperature microcontrollers so our devices end up having about 32k flash and about 8k ram.
This is not quite the way LabVIEW works.

We've done pair programming before. It's great for when two programmers are introduced to something new. As they progress, they become independent. It's not so much a binary choice, but a when.
