bahador··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2018)
Xvela | Oakland, CA | Full-Time, Onsite, VISA | Comp depends on role and experience | https://xvela.com/

XVELA connects terminal operators and ocean carriers on a shared, open collaboration platform providing actionable visibility, real-time communication and connected intelligence on vessel operations.

In other words, it's a saas app that allows container vessel operators to collaborate in real time with container ports about which containers get unloaded from the ship and where loaded containers will be placed. Think of it as a very complicated game of Tetris.

Current open roles:

- Principal Java Engineer: https://careers-xvela-navis.icims.com/jobs/2207/principal-ja...

- Full Stack Engineer (Sr Software Engineer): https://careers-xvela-navis.icims.com/jobs/2122/full-stack-e...

Stack: Java (Play and Spring) | Angular and AngularJS | PostgreSQL | Akka | Gradle | AWS

bahador··on Why React/Redux is inferior as a paradigm
I won't disagree. But from a business point of view, it makes a lot of sense to use React. It's support from a huge organization like fb, and mass adoption by the community, make it a safe choice to use in the long term, from a business point of view. Not only will it continue to be supported by a well funded engineering organization, but the pool of developers with experience with it is large.

As for Redux, I'm more of a Alt.js kind of engineer. All that being said, Cycle and Elm are totally cool.

bahador··on Bashhub – Bash History in the Cloud
I like the idea a lot, but the security implications of this are scary. May as well just do a cloud based key stroke recorder.

bahador··on PolyConf 15: Unikernels [video]
I really want to start using unikernels but I'm not sure where to start. I really like MirageOS but being limited to OCaml is a barrier to entry for me. As an alternative, I'm looking at OSv because it works with the JVM. And lastly, I'm keeping an eye out on hyper.sh because I feel like it can conceptually solve some of the same problems as unikernels, except leveraging existing investment in docker.

As a dev with most of my experience being in JavaScript, Java, and Python, is there any advice you could give me?
