NowSecure | Senior DevOps Engineer | Vienna, VA | Full-time
We are leading in cutting edge mobile security and sponsor a number of open-source tools such as radare (https://github.com/radare/radare2) and Frida (https://github.com/frida/) that are widely used by security researchers. Unfortunately we can’t offer sponsorship at this time and candidates must be located in the continental US. We are looking to fill a senior devops position.
When applying please put in you found this on Hacker News!
=========== What we are looking for ===========
- You've done Kubernetes the hard way - or better yet, you know what it is, but you've spent more time working with Kubernetes in production than reading about it.
- You have development experience. We write code on top of the Kubernetes API so being able to dive deep into code is extremely valuable!

One of the best ways I found is to hire in pairs. Don't just hire one junior (or entry level) at a time. Hire two or more at once so they can help each other learn your stack. At the university I work at, this is how we handle it. We hire a lot of students to help develop our application. These students are far from entry level when we hire them. Most have taken maybe one CS class at the university level.
It takes a lot of time to mentor these students, so one of the ways we handle that is have some of the more "seasoned" student developers help train. This works out very well for us, in that we have two seasoned student developers that help train the four fresh students we have. The questions that the newly hired students have can generally be answered by another student, because they probably had the same problem. While these seasoned students help out a lot, I still have to spend time mentoring and training. Be prepared to spend more time than what you think, but the rewards pay off in the end.
Also it helps if you find what the developer is passionate about and maybe find work that aligns well with that. We had a former student that once we found out they wanted to do iOS development, we put them on that task and they really shined. It does take some work to find out what they want to get into, but it has worked well for us.
As for getting up to the "senior developer" skill level, that is not something that we have baked into our student program. Once a student graduates, they can no longer work with us. It takes more than the typical 4-5 years to graduate university to hit that level.
I work in the central IT department at a university that has around 20,000 students. You are a 100% correct that we are very underfunded and understaffed. I'm the lead and only full time programmer for the entire portal system. We make due by hiring students to help off load the work for us full timers.
Our security team is relatively new. When I first started back in 2013 we didn't really have one. So if you had a few programmers that didn't understand security, many things got through. We do a much better job now, but I can see how other universities can really struggle.
The place I work at is not ready to use something like docker, so I made a cloneish of docker for us to use. We are still in the early stages of it right now. Brocker is a combination of docker and kubernetes. Sorry for the bad documentation, I'm slowly adding more.
I work at a public university in Michigan as a Java developer. All of our salaries are open to the public. It has actually caused more friction that what I expected. Maybe it is just the people I work with, but once raises were announced people got very upset. It was mostly why is person A paid THAT much, they don't do anything.
I'm also a type 1 and highly recommend the Walmart Reli-On test strips. Cost savings on those is amazing. I do have the Reli-On meter and they work great together.
I plan on blogging about it once I get more into it. I have just started doing some basic programming and reading up on how the GameBoy works.
I never grew up! I still play my old GameBoy Color when I go on long trips. I know there are many emulators out there for these old systems, but I want to know how they work and figured if I'm still playing with one, let's make one!
I have been reading through the emulator in Javascript walkthrough. It does a good job at explaining the basics. I'm not very far into development, still trying to understand the basics of the CPU. The manual and opcode chart you posted will help out a lot with that.
Thanks for the tip about the CPU instructions. I did notice that, but when looking through the Javascript code there was a one to one relationship with opcodes to instructions. Wasn't sure why the person went that way, maybe because it was easier? Either way I will keep that in mind and try to do code reuse!
Test ROMs are amazing! I have been playing around with a few ROMs I have and they all seem very complicated. This should make it easier to determine if I'm on the right track or not.
With the little code I have written, 90% of it is Printf to the screen to see what is going on :).
I do want to share with you this other tutorial that I found [1]. It is similar to the Javascript one, but it goes into way more detail on some parts.
Thanks very much for all the help! I have a lot of reading to do this weekend!
I'm in the process of doing the same thing. Instead of using Rust I'm going to try to use Go. Would you mind sharing any resources that you found to help write the emulator?
I have the 13" XPS. The size and weight of it are really good for traveling. The battery life is not very good. I get maybe 3 hours on it in Linux. There might be some settings that need to be tweaked to get more life out of it. Also the WiFi on the device, even in Windows 8, sucks. The connection drops quite frequently and some AP it will not connect to. The computer is only a year old, so the new ones might be better now.
Unicon Inc, http://www.unicon.net/, partly does this. They cater to higher education with software like uPortal, CAS, and uMobile. All of these software products are open source, but they make money off of a support model like this. Universities that pay them for support can vote on features that they want worked on. I do not work for them, but my employer does use them for our student portal.
