#452Earlier quoted context omitted.
Have you considered putting pagination links at the top of the threads as well?
It's a good idea, but the plan is to improve performance so we can go back to not paginating at all. HN traditionally just served up large threads the same way as small ones. That seems much better, and I fear making the current workaround too 'nice' since then we might never fix the issue properly.
Of course you've said a proper solution is being designed, but in the interim, it's a bit masochistic for us to have to scroll to the bottom of the page just to click through to the next page when the "More" hyperlink could also be added to the top of the page.
FWIW, I've suggested this change before [0], but nonetheless thanks for all you do.

#455I am the senior manager (skip-level manager) for these roles so feel free to email me with questions. We have 2 mid level software development engineering roles open. We work on cutting edge tech that helps games and simulations run on AWS and scale in ways they couldn't alone. I am looking for people with distributed service development (we do most of this in Java), and low level systems development skills (Rust). We're building an all new AWS service, solving hard technical problems, and we get to have games as a customer, which is pretty awesome to me.

#456Lustre provides incredibly reliable product recommendations to help people choose what to buy. One of the most critical components in our system is the knowledge graph that processes our scraped data and transforms it into highly structured and contextualized input to our neural net.
You'll be the lead engineer on the knowledge graph. Some examples of the type of tasks you'll be doing:
* Automatically process massive amounts of structured data.
* Understand the context of the information to create useful connections to aid in predicting the best products.
* Research and implement new traversals of our knowledge graph to gain more leverage from our data.
* Figure out efficient ways to incorporate human-in-the-loop curation for tasks that cannot be automated.
* Communicate with the machine learning team to get them the data they need for improving recommendations.
* Keep an eye out for new technologies and data sources that can automate tasks or improve the quality of our data.
* Implement API routes for serving knowledge graph data to the frontend.
An ideal candidate will:
* Be a capable problem solver who enjoys identifying business problems you can solve with thoughtful engineering, 3rd party APIs, or incorporating ML.
* Have 4+ years experience building out backend infrastructure.
* Enjoy digging through data to solve problems and find new optimisations.
* Be a good team player as this role will require good communication with both the product & ML teams to understand their problems/goals.

#458Hi, I’m Andrew DeFranco, a senior engineer at Stationhead. We’re building a music-focused social network fighting back against algorithmically generated playlists and soulless corporate radio. We’re creating a democratized platform people connect with their music, their favorite artists, and each other. One of our founders is an actual rockstar, and we have artists and industry executives lauding us as the future of music streaming.
We are a small team developers working collaboratively in a diverse and inclusive workplace. Our dev team has a wide range of backgrounds—including self-taught hackers and bootcamp grads.
Senior Android Engineer
We’re looking for an experienced mobile developer to lead the team building our new Android app. You should have 3 years + experience building and deploying Android apps, with experience porting over iOS apps a plus. You prefer working in Kotlin and doing things “the Kotlin way”, and understand when ReactiveX can be a better tool than coroutines. You should take pride in writing maintainable, stable, and tested code, and have experience leading a team or mentoring junior devs.
Backend Engineer
We’re looking for an backend developer to join our backend team. Our backend is written in Laravel, and you should have experience with it or a similar MVC web framework such as Ruby on Rails, Django, or Express. You should have experience using NoSQL databases (such as ElasticSearch and Redis) and relational databases. You take pride in writing clean, maintainable, and tested code, and aren’t afraid to refactor and improve others’ code. Our backend team also supports our reporting and internal tools. Experience with Tableau and front-end web development in React is a plus.
To apply you can send your resume to me at andrew@stationhead.com or reach out using the links above. Be sure to tell us your favorite band when you send us an email :)

#459We're creating a utility data platform to help building managers / utility admins understand their energy footprint (think data ingest + dataviz-filled dashboards + admin workflows). We're looking for a senior full-stack engineer, though the work is pretty backend-heavy. Tech stack is .NET Core / SQL Server / Azure on the backend, Typescript / React / Redux on the frontend. We're a small team, so looking for someone who can take our vision and run with it, working with our PM and other stakeholders to ensure you're solving real customer problems.
I'm happy to answer questions here or via email at andrew.sullivan@calicoenergy.com (I'm an engineer on the team). The job posting is at https://calicoenergy.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=38
