New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: How to get a startup job if you lack resume?

Ask HN: How to get a startup job if you lack resume?
3 by elamje | 2 comments on Hacker News.
I am starting to look around at jobs in several US markets. I’m primarily considering python and clojure jobs, even though my professional experience is .NET. I feel a little trapped by the fact that I don’t have a lot of open source in those languages, nor have professional experience. For context I am 24, EECS major at reputable public university, Python experience from some small projects and a Django app in progress. Clojure experience with small wrappers and simple TODO list apps. 1 year of professional .NET web dev experience at Big 4 accounting firm. I feel like I’m a bit of a generalist as far as tech stack, but I would like to do more back end and work on something intensive. Do you have advice for people in a similar situation on what your approach would be at maximizing odds of getting a good startup job in SF, Austin, or NYC?

Received this email a few minutes ago: "On Thursday, April 25th, 2019, we discovered unauthorized access to a single Hub database storing a subset of non-financial user data. Upon discovery, we acted quickly to intervene and secure the site. We want to update you on what we've learned from our ongoing investigation, including which Hub accounts are impacted, and what actions users should take. Here is what we’ve learned: During a brief period of unauthorized access to a Docker Hub database, sensitive data from approximately 190,000 accounts may have been exposed (less than 5% of Hub users). Data includes usernames and hashed passwords for a small percentage of these users, as well as Github and Bitbucket tokens for Docker autobuilds. Actions to Take: - We are asking users to change their password on Docker Hub and any other accounts that shared this password. - For users with autobuilds that may have been impacted, we have revoked GitHub tokens and access keys, and ask that you reconnect to your repositories and check security logs to see if any unexpected actions have taken place. - You may view security actions on your GitHub or BitBucket accounts to see if any unexpected access has occurred over the past 24 hours -see http://bit.ly/2V1kwFO and http://bit.ly/2GCGt43 - This may affect your ongoing builds from our Automated build service. You may need to unlink and then relink your Github and Bitbucket source provider as described in https://dockr.ly/2UXNvKQ We are enhancing our overall security processes and reviewing our policies. Additional monitoring tools are now in place. Our investigation is still ongoing, and we will share more information as it becomes available.

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: Looking for prior art to prevent obvious patent

Ask HN: Looking for prior art to prevent obvious patent
2 by superqd | 0 comments on Hacker News.
http://bit.ly/2DzoYRu I ran across this patent and it boggles my mind that it hasn't been rejected for failing the non-obvious test. I would think it not novel either, as I would expect there to be a lot of prior art. I wanted to submit something to help demonstrate prior art, but have had no luck finding something published, even though this to me, as a practitioner in the art, is drop dead obvious. Essentially, the patent covers a browser requesting a list of events from a server, the server getting the events from a database, along with templates for displaying those events, then interpolating the templates with event values, and sending the result back to the browser. They are attempting to patent returning template value replacement on the server in response to a request for information from a client. Anyone know of prior art that could be used to help prevent yet one more obvious software patent from getting issued? FULL DISCLOSURE: I ran across this because I was working on something similar for a side business, and it blew my mind when I saw a company listing their patent pending "technology" of showing notifications based on templates.

We use Slack for internal comms, but it's used mostly for chit-chat conversations and real-time issues. Is there a product for slow-thinking updates where I can share teams news and align my +40 people team? How can you be sure people don't actually miss things in the noise of Slack/Email?

I'd like to move away from Apples Photo.app to open-source, self-hosted, and browser-based application that may run on a NAS or Linux server. There seem to be lots of alternatives out there (Nextcloud, Piwigo, ...) but I'd love to hear about recommendations and experiences.
