Seven Bridges Genomics | Boston | Javascript Visualization Engineer Seven Bridges Genomics is building the most advanced cloud computing platform for genomics data analysis on the …

I find it the opposite, and I played in high school too, but since I know the mechanics of everything it makes it a lot more interesting. For instance most people only get the gist…

Was this built in Swift or Obj-C?

Awaiting the Boston launch.

Well it's about efficiency too, Coffee Meets Bagel does the 1 day a match thing and after 4 weeks of non matches (either I wasn't attracted to them or they to me) I just quit the s…

Signed up and got put on waiting list. Used OkC and Tinder before, let's see how different this is. Also will be interesting to see if this follows a lot of the online dating trend…

Pretty much the same thing happened to me a year ago, I was at an onsite interview, did really well 4 out of the 5 rounds, but 1 round I just completely choked some basic linked li…

I was an introverted Asian in high school, how I learned to wane out of it is alcohol. I'm not saying I'm dependent on alcohol, but it teaches you to not care and just be more soci…

I tried this once to upgrade my room to a suite, you basically put $20 in between your ID and credit card when you check in, and ask if there are any complimentary room/food/credit…

I've had an awful experience with Hired. Wasn't just a one-time thing either.

I think if you do web or mobile stuff, you can easily amaze people as well if you have some interesting projects, considering how everyone has a smartphone nowadays - you can just …

That reminds me of a HN thread a few days ago about someone getting fired after two weeks since he asked too many questions.

An Oculus Rift poker game using bitcoins as currency would be pretty neat.

Even though Kanye West gets a lot of flak for his behavior, I think that most of the sampling that he's done (especially on his first 3 albums) has been amazing. Like taking a 2 se…

Why exactly would it cost so much?

Well yeah you don't need meanings for some songs that pretty literal like that, but if you listen to say some of Lupe Fiasco's top songs where he has a metaphor referencing another…

I am more or less in the same boat as you are. I graduated roughly a year ago, and I've been trying to find a developer position in any big tech city (SV, Seattle, NY, Boston, etc)…

It's pretty simple, just say "Thanks"/"Thank You".

You should do CS since there's quite a lot of overlap of IS. With a CS degree you can still go for IS-oriented jobs when you graduate (and you may even be considered above people w…

If you're in the US, it was very do-able before Black Friday (when the 3 major websites got banned), but nowadays it's way tougher since the sites that you can actually play in the…

After talking to someone who knows quite a bit about this stuff, apparently most people in the genomics/bioinformatics community kinda already knew about this, just that the resear…

If you watch actually funny shows that have a laugh track, such as Seinfeld, and removed them - they're still funny. Idk I just find BBT humor very bland, like the punch line to a …

The main thing I don't like about BBT is that it's generally not funny. Look how the show holds without its laugh track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKS3MGriZcs

Bioinformatics/Genomics have been beginning to use GPUs for their data processing, since there's vast amount of DNA data that can take a long time to get through.
