You are right. They were. Serbs were at fault as well. Maybe the most.

But that was not the reason I brought up the bombing - I brought it to show how grudges could affect someone's behavior. Just like it could have influence mine when I was checked, just like how it could influence anyone - even the US people.

I never thought about shaming anyone - especially the US or you guys for the upvotes/downvotes.

Great comment it really adds to the discussion!

It has to do everything with it. Since, you're so ignorant and rude let me explain it to you like you are five, since I believe that is your age.

If a certain country bombards your country you have the right to hold a grudge against it, especially if someone closed to you died in "some bombing". If I wanted to be a dick about how the whole world, and especially how the US hates me I'd use that argument and say that's all because you bombarded us and you hate us. bla bla. Instead I chose to get my diploma in the US. Starting to make a connection?

No one even started the politics or who was right or who was wrong - but you obviously do hold some grudge. It was about human lives. If you really want to know - I thought that was a bad call, but why should you care, you just said go f. yourself out of the blue. You're still living in a cave - might want to try and get a real life education Patrick. Good job on being absolutely biased with no real opinion and experience about the situation :)

If you want to go to the politics. What happened to the Serbian children that were shot to death while they were swimming in a lake that started the whole incident? What about the organs that were farmed by your so called "Kosovo people."

Now on the point of "some bombing" - what you have just stated shows how much you appreciate a human life.

Well, also, since you're spoon fed the news by all the lobbied news station keep living in your ignorance.

Cheers. What a happy life you must live.Try and see a therapist - hopefully he'll be able to help you with your problems.

So as a security officer when someone says there might be a bomb - you would not react? That's reasonable?

To be fair - it does. Nowadays, you never know when someone will blow up. Take for instance the Turkey bombing. Guy causally walked on the street and suddenly detonated himself killing a dozen of people.

I'm Serbian and I do not have a green card. I speak "buga, buga" language as my team mates call it. I look bulky since I do sports and weight lifting plus I have a shaved head and I have a beard. Typical criminal type looking. For the past six years I have been on an F-1 visa. Numerous times was my passport taken longer to "process", my I-20 and my emails taken longer to read. I was 10 finger printed every time, you know, just in case. I had to retake photos all the time. I am still looked down upon because my passport is not from the EU, but I'm European. People do not hear my accent.

Once my I-20 was not signed by my school - I was taken to a separate room - interrogated for 45 minutes and then they finally called the school and the school verified.

Once I took my shaker bottle and my protein with me in a carry on. I was moved aside to a separate room, interrogated for 20 minutes as they were running some kind of tests to the powder.

In London I was denied a visa for a 24 hour stay, when British Airways was on strike so I have spent the Christmas Eve with a security officer at the airport.

Have I ever called that racism/nationalism or whatever? No, not really. Police are there to protect you and are there to protect your interest.

9/10 times the police is wrong, but what about that 1/10 times when they're right? People just assume that cops will figure it out - they still have to do their jobs.

PS Oh man the downvotes, gotta love HN.

- Assess product requirements

- Assess lack of knowledge points

- See how they correlate

- Pick a topic that coresponds to an issue/feature that has to be delivered.

- Prepare a hand-out, email, tutorial

- Use morning meeting to give hand outs that will help them deliver better. Make them ask questions.

This is an obstacle of being a manager. Make your team better, that's where the satisfaction kicks in :)

This definitely was outrageous - but fear was not the driving force of the institutional behavior - it was the reasonable doubt.

While I agree that this was really harsh and inhumane - you have to understand that this is a normal behavior of the security officers.

What if the guy was actually a terrorist? Would you praise that woman because she was the one alarming the police?

Instead of judging the woman, put yourself in her position - she panicked and reacted, if you had a child near you - would you have done the same?

Don't generalize too early - this is an isolated case.

You have described me perfectly. However, I have an adrenaline rush when I have to do things that are close to the deadline.

What do you think would be a solution to this - since you did observe it from a side and how does this behavior differ from your own behavior?

Why? When you make a bold statement like this - provide some context and proof.

American diet in the 70s was not what the American diet is today.

I love the chat implementation. What would the other possible usage scenarios be?

> (because i've seen great github repos and references, but ended up with developers that are very, very average)

Not trying to be a smart ass, but being average is not only the developers fault, it could also be the company's.

That's actually a reasonable response. From my first read the numbers seemed a bit inflated, so I dug into their blog post out of curiosity (I develop on GAE), so the comment was not ill intended. Now that you have pointed out they do seem a good estimate!

Thanks for the great articles David, keep them coming! :)

The author also failed to notice "peaks" from the original spotify blog post about events per second. So 700k requests is not average, it's peak. They don't have that every second.

People jump on the microservices bandwagon way too often. I'm glad that Jan pointed out that not everything that is broken down is a micro service.

Yes that is the framework. Well, Google App Engine still suggests using it in all of their code snippets and is the goto python framework suggested for GAE apps.

I also probably didn't formulate my question well. I didn't ask whether to use it or not, but how it compares to Flask - .

What do you guys think of webapp2 framework? How does it compare to flask?

While I agree about this - I never made fun out of anyone. I'm just saying it's common sense in corporate world not to reveal the info behind the rejection. It should be common sense for others. But I'm in no way making fun out of anyone.

Nothing unknown was said in this article.

You can't be serious.

Will Potato support Visas for Non-EU residents for the London/Bristol position?

Background story: I applied to 10+ companies a month ago. I did keep track, I did follow up etc. Couple of them didn't follow up, couple of them I remembered not replying last time I applied for them as well. Nothing changed. I was tired of Excel, Notepad, Gmail.

The pain you're describing is being handled by at least 10 companies that I know and which sent me updates about the jobs. Granted they're not the best, but they work.

The pain I wanted to reduce was the pain that comes with the entire process. When you're simultaneously in 10+ process it can become easy to lose your focus and forget to follow up, read notes, to dos (google most recent interviews etc).

The pain I also wanted to remove was the pain of re-applying to companies that are god awful at providing feedback, that do not reply, that forget to close job ads etc. Think job app history.

Another pain I wanted to remove was weighing the offers via charts and summaries on the offer page and show communication and interest from the company on the reports page.

Another idea as suggested in comments: Provide this data transparently, blind the important information and that might take the product to a whole new level.

I do not want this to be another job board or an email newsletter. There are plenty out there.

I have sent you a LinkedIn message - let's chat.

Yes, something along these lines :)

However, I have a lot more features I'd love to implement than a simple organizer.

Oh. I didn't know this. They seem like workable, lever.

However, there is something fundamentally different - they're just an assistant and automatic job applier, converting to pdfs, creating cover letters etc. I wouldn't offer that. I'd aim this initially to only tech-savvy people like developers, engineers - you get the picture. I'm sure they don't need help with converting to pdf and formatting. They don't need help with applying. They do however need a way to track their application progress, as I have applied to a couple of companies 10+ and at times it was tedious to track all of them.

I meant something more like an actual job process tracking tool and a data tool for your own use.

You apply for a job - tracked progress - landed the job. You landed couple actually. You go to the offer page and compare the benefits at a glance via graphs, summary's etc.

Lets say you searched for a job, you've sent 30+ applications, logged the process etc. You got hired (woohoo). Something doesn't work out after 6 months or after 2,3 years you start feeling burnt out and want to move on. You look back and see where you applied, how was the process, email the recruiter etc. You see they didn't reply while you had the necessary qualifications and they didn't provide you with a great feedback. You consult google and the tool which might have public database by now that is huge - realizing they didn't change. You don't waste time.

I meant something that an actual applicant can use for their own personal use when job hunting. No bloatware, no job ads. Simple and plain organizer for hunting jobs. It is not something you'd use everyday, but once you're in the loop, a 1-3 month period is something normal for the job hunt. If you decide to comeback you'd have history of the jobs applied. Direct emails to recruiters, etc. So there is value.

Lets say you applied at Google/FB/Apple/30 Start Ups.

You have issues remembering all of the statuses of the applications, as trying to remember 30+ jobs is hard. Follow ups, Emails, Stages, Interesting Links you found on their recruiting process, To Dos, Resume Version sent (if you applied to couple of positions and highlighted different skills). Point of Contact, Last contact. List of contacts.

Report page showing companies with most interactions.

Offer page showing offers you have received and comparing them.

Oneplus is a low end phone? You might want to do some more research.

I believe machine learning is the way to go. It might require quite a bit of coding and time, but in my humble opinion it is your best bet. Also,someone wrote some JS code a while ago that was posted on HN that would detected nudity on a given photo. I believe you could automatically tag NSFW if the script alerts for nudity. I will edit for link as soon as I find it.
