That doesn't mean there isn't one right in front of our eyes though.
For the same reason that humans have not "made contact" with ants.
Why do you assume a higher intelligence would even be capable of making contact with us on a level we understand? The discussion would be meaningless, in the same way that an ant would not comprehend our desire to build a freeway right next to their ant hill.
Interested in working on tools at the intersection of robotics and machine learning? Our engineering productivity team is responsible for web-based tools and infrastructure to support development and testing/simulation at scale of our Autonomous Vehicle software. We're also looking for a talented Engineering Manager to join our team.

Many other roles are also available on our website: https://getcruise.com/all-careers
Cruise is building the world’s best autonomous vehicles to safely connect people to the places, things, and experiences they care about.
We're looking for experienced (5+ years) software engineers interested in Go, Docker, and Kubernetes, to build infrastructure running thousands of driving simulations every day. This simulation infrastructure is critical to our success, and helps us understand how changes to our code affect our company-wide performance metrics.
Apply via link below, or feel free to reach out via my HN profile.
Also, even if they verify you meet some minimum bar of being able to support yourself (which I was not asked about in my interview, other than turning up looking generally presentable), this is still a far cry from a more rigorous points-based immigration system. Per GP, DV immigrants are still basically chosen "at random".
However, as others pointed out, the DV is a small fraction of green cards granted, and the process for family based immigration may differ.

With Fargate, you get access to AWS-managed multi-tenant nodes. So, Fargate connects to either your ECS or EKS cluster and avoids the need for you to worry about managing the nodes as well.
We're building self driving cars, and we're testing in the most difficult urban environments. We have a world class software team, plus a parent company with decades of manufacturing experience. All employees have access to free self driving car trips within SF.
We're hiring for many roles, including ML, C++, backend, frontend - check out our website for the full list.
I'm specifically interested in talking to any senior devops/SREs, or any senior data infrastructure engineers (spark, swift, jupyter, airflow, etc).

Yes, it's entirely possible that the commenter is (or was) an employee in a department other than engineering. We all report to CEO eventually though, so I don't think that would result in a significantly different experience.
For sure, there is still a lot of work to be done before we can launch a full L4/L5 vehicle, but I would say with high confidence our platform is ahead of most other players in the industry, and I'm confident that we will be one of the first companies to launch AVs at scale.
FWIW, Glassdoor seems to agree with me: https://www.glassdoor.com/Overview/Working-at-Cruise-EI_IE97...
So, if you're interested in working on AVs or the systems that support them, please take a look at our careers page: https://getcruise.com/careers (or feel free to reach out to me via HN profile).

We're building the world's most reliable self driving car technology, and we have the right backing + partnerships in place for manufacturing at scale. We're hiring for a large number of software engineering roles. In particular, C++ engineers, experienced devops/SRE, and experienced backend or full stack engineers.
The chances of a collision are so astronomically low that our sun will probably run out of fuel and explode before two identical keys are generated.
Most other exchanges also publish their complete order book so you can fairly easily view their liquidity and answer this question.
I realize your username says `anon...`, but you've already made HN comments about where you live and I only did a 30s glance.
We're building the world's largest fleet of self driving cars, and we're testing in 3 cities across the US. We focus our testing on solving the hardest challenges first (e.g. city driving in SF). We have the software engineering skills, funding, and manufacturing ability to make self driving cars a reality!
We're looking for
* C++ engineers (prior robotics experience a plus, but not necessary)
* Backend/Frontend/Full Stack Engineers
* Site Reliability Engineers
* Senior Android Engineer
If you have 5+ years experience, and are interested in Cruise but not sure where you would fit, or which role to apply to, feel free to reach out to me via HN profile.
We're building self driving cars. We operate as an independent startup, but we also have the funding and manufacturing capabilities of a large company (GM). We're hiring many roles, including C++ engineers, and backend/full stack engineers (go/node.js).
If you're an experienced backend or infrastructure (docker/k8s) engineer, and feel comfortable building systems from scratch (e.g. startup CTO or early employee) please send me your resume/github/linkedin via HN profile and I'll personally review it.
If you want to work on product ideas, you are much better doing that while you still have a day job, rather than trying to do it while you are also worrying about where your next contract is going to come from.
