#143What do we have? Small, fast, potential insane team going after the temporary staffing / contracting match-making market. It was $86B in revenue last year, a down year, and it's almost entirely offline. It's time to shake things up!
We're in Boston and you need to be to. We code primarily in Rails. The right person will be co-founder with significant equity. We're changing peoples lives. Come build a great company with us.
We're a TechStars 09 company. Have GREAT advisers with deep industry knowledge and major entrepreneurial success under their belts (seriously, rock stars).
Oh, and as this says (http://www.startuply.com/Jobs/Technical_Co_Founder_Rails_153...) I'm not another biz guy looking for someone to do the work. Career developer, 4 startups under my belt, looking to turn my focus more towards the fund raising and growing the biz. That's where you come in. Ping me. My email is in my profile.

#144Earlier quoted context omitted.
I figured the room might be a bit too generalist to want to hear 40-50 minutes of crypto flaws, and so I was thinking about wrapping the crypto stuff up in a talk that made a technical case in favor of DRM. If people tell me real-world crypto is going to keep people in their seats, though, I'm totally down for that; it's a much easier talk.
Can we get the two paragraph version of the technical case in favor of DRM now? I'm very curious.
* That the security goal of DRM is not about absolute platform integrity, but about meeting the commercial objectives of content providers, and that when you relax constraints from "absolutely protecting media" to "making sure titles are difficult to pirate during their new-release window to maximize profit", you get opportunities for interesting approaches to security, like renewability.
* That taken together, these two ideas suggest that DRM is actually a really interesting CS problem, and --- leaving politics out of it --- even if you believe it's destined to fail, it's worthy of study.

#147Amazon seems to always be hiring. Give us a shout - this includes internships too. By the way, I did 6 internships total during college, and Amazon was by far the most enjoyable one. If you're a student, apply.
Where else did you intern? I'm curious because I'd like to know whether an Amazon internship would be different or better than my other experiences (Microsoft/IBM).
I'm comparing to two other internships - two at a theoretical physics institute in Waterloo and two with Bloomberg in NYC.

#148Sofa is hiring coders (Obj-C/Obj-J/Python) or ui designers for fulltime positions in Amsterdam.
As a designer, I loved visiting Amsterdam during my honeymoon last year - I felt like I was drowning in a sea of Helvetica. The ugliness of American road signs was an extremely heated topic last night.

#150Palantir Tech is hiring for just about every position in the company (we're growing fast). The most YC-relevant positions are probably software engineers -- most of what we do is in Java (with a bit of Groovy glue). Most jobs are at our Palo Alto, CA hq.
