Deft (former Servercentral ) | multiple, sw engineers | Chicago or remote, (US preferred)

I have 2 openings in my team, but we are hiring a lot. I invite you to look at the listings (https://jobs.lever.co/deft/). In my team I look for two software engineers (https://jobs.lever.co/deft/165ecdc4-17ba-476f-90d9-4ce6e5fbd...), senior or staff.

Skill wise we look for anything, from backend to devops, full stack or front end, datasci/eng and streams. Cloud or Unix admin or networking experience very helpful, but also service now or quite honestly anything. we are almost always remote.

As consultants we work on a lot of very different things. This week I have been setting ci-cd pipelines on kube in azure, doing Kafka streams applications on a colo deployment and some AWS cognito and amplify. This to say, it’s a great learning opportunity and a good chance to expand your horizons. I need someone that is ready and excited about continuously learning new things.

Tech stack: AWS, Azure, python, js, node, php, bash, go , Java. A bit of all the things honesty.

Compensation: competitive and decent benefits. 401k matched and large personal development budget.

Contact: Dre (myself, acadeddu@deft.com) for the software engineers, here’s the official site for applying https://jobs.lever.co/deft/ and you can pm me for any questions. https://www.deft.com


Beorg for iOS solved this problem for me.


Remember this spaceballs scene https://m.imgur.com/t/funny/Q13Qr ? it cannot be a coincidence.


I stand with OP on the bugs. I own top of the line 15in, and can confirm audio freezes, glitches and ffs sometime also random reboots.


maybe it's broken? mine works fine. Might be worth a call to the genii.

Edit: Why the downvote?


Why the downvote?

Because Apple-bashing is all the rage right now on HN. Even if Apple were to achieve "five nines" glitch-free manufacturing, which is very hard to do, there'd still be problems with 1 in 10,000 units sold. And that's considered excellent quality. I used to work in the hardware space. Software people don't often appreciate you can't simply crank out perfect replicas of a design.

More like <insert anything here>-bashing has been and always will be all the rage on any internet forum? At least to me HN looks quite diverse and I don't have the impression there is a big undeniable bias towards a single platform/tool/... and all seems fair. Which of course might mean in some cases where some product is actually not top notch the 'average' of the comments will be towards the negative side but that is exactly what should happen and the opposite should be true as well.


Analytical people tend to be critical. For example, don't get me started on Android.

"So you must like your iPhone then?"

Yes, but let me tell you about the things I don't like about it...


I don't think I was apple bashing - just the contrary. I have one and think it's great - I develop for Apple products, I said maybe his was broken. A bit confused...


I also suspect faulty hardware in these scenarios. I see far fewer bugs with my fully loaded 2016 MBP 15 than I did on my 3yo MBA.

I'd also be interested to know whether the folks experiencing these bugs imported the apps and settings from their old system. In my experience, it's fairly common to see glitches resulting from corrupt drivers or configuration after setting up a new machine by transferring from an old.


You really should hear how presumptuous you sound. How are teaching your son to deal with people? How is he going to learn that he lives in a society? That sometime life is boring? that sometimes you are not the only one? 3 hours a day might be enough for the curricular material, but schools are much much more than that.


You accuse debacle of being presumptuous, but you are presuming debacle doesn't already teach his/her son how to deal with people, learn he lives in a society, that sometimes life is boring, and that sometimes you are not the only one.

By the way, school is not the only answer for any of the questions you asked.


How is someone going to learn that he lives in a society being locked in a building all day with people exactly the same age and social class as he is? How is someone going to learn how to deal with people when they're constantly supervised by a team of bureaucrats whose job is to deal with students' problems for them? [1]

I don't think anyone is claiming that the ideal homeschooling childhood consists of only interaction between parents and child, and nobody else. Neighbors, fellow homeschoolers, family, church, Scouts, camp, trips, actual adults: these are all sources of socialization.

[1]I went to public school and it was good. But I'm open-minded to alternative forms of learning.


I believe that when you homeschool your child, you are just blindee by your presumption. For one good student that comes out, you have one thousand religious zealot that believe earth is flat. It allows atrocities a la "dancing mom". It allows people to avoid vaccinations. Without mentioning the social awkwardness. I truly believe homeschooling is also a crime against humanity.


I have seen the religious zealots come out of homeschooling too. But do you have a source that has actual data showing that those are not a minority of the homeschool population?

I see no reason to believe they are the majority simply because they are visible.


I actually do. I won't be able to say much because I'd like this account to remain anonymous, but my parents are/were notable figures in the homeschooling movement. At least from the 90s-00s, religious homeschoolers were the solid majority of all homeschoolers in the US by far. Many of which are more extreme than you probably imagine.


Talk about zealot...


hard to resist temptation to lower oneself to your level (and that's quite a road down there), but I'll try - you are wrong. as always, it depends on people involved.


A left right organization also give you clue of which side of the field the teams are playing.


Nope, it tells you which team is playing at its home stadium (or in the case of games played on neutral ground, the team that is designated the 'home' team by e.g. a raffle).

At half time the teams swap sides, the order of teams on screen doesn't


I clearly agree that the current graphics sucks, however I feel you are missing one major point in this discussion: Where's the sponsor's promotion? That said, if I had to guess why we ended up with this abominable graphics, I believe that 30% of it is pure corruption, 40% is tasteless "let's make it look like a yunday" and the remaining is actually the desired "favela style".


Writing underwater, in space and at non standard angles. Pencils could not care less about gravity or lack of air, and have a wide temperature range of operation. I've no proof on this, but my guess will be something like -150:600 ± 50C.


Pencils can be actively dangerous in zero gravity: See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_in_space


those drawings are beautiful. how you did it? babel?


I just typed a lot of letters, punctuation marks, and spaces into the text area. Mostly spaces.
