salt-licker··on AirPods causing tinnitus?
AirPods Pro noise cancellation almost definitely gave me temporary tinnitus after a few months of usage even though I never listened to music that loud. Switched to regular AirPods two years ago and the tinnitus entirely went away.
salt-licker··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2023)
Genesis Therapeutics | Burlingame, CA | Remote or Onsite | Full-time or Interns | https://www.genesistherapeutics.ai

We’re a hybrid AI + biotech start-up, developing novel deep learning and molecular simulation techniques to predict molecular properties and using them to accelerate the development of new medicines.

We raised a $52M Series A from Andreessen Horowitz + well-respected biotech investors, and have deployed our technology on several internal drug programs as well as multi-target collaborations with Genentech + Lilly ($20M up-front revenue + $670M potential total value), driving discovery progress at a speed rarely seen in the industry. Now we are scaling the team and technology to support many more drug programs in parallel as well as increasingly difficult protein targets.

We currently have a team (https://www.genesistherapeutics.ai/company.html#team) of about 40 people, split 50/50 between our ML / software team and our biochem team of veteran drug hunters in our own wetlab space. Our ML + software engineers are top-notch -- many graduates from MIT, UC Berkeley, Stanford. Previously worked at OpenAI, Google, Facebook, SingleStore, Jane Street, etc.

We're looking for software engineers (no bio or chem experience expected) to help build flexible production systems to integrate our ML models, molecular simulation platform, and molecular generation techniques into our drug programs. This includes helping build individual algorithmic components, iterating on our chemist-facing model deployment pipeline, and leveraging our autoscaling cluster of thousands of GPUs and tens of thousands of CPUs processing billions of molecules / day.

We're also hiring ML research scientists and computational chemists. Here are all of our open roles: https://jobs.lever.co/genesistherapeutics/

Interview process: 1-2 one-hour technical phone screens, 1 day on-site (optionally virtual) with 3 one-hour technical questions. All these include extra time to chat, answer your questions about Genesis, and meet us. Can go from first email to offer in 2-3 weeks

Tech Stack: python, pytorch, postgres, flask, kubernetes

Please apply on our website, or feel free to reach out via email directly: ben@genesistherapeutics.ai

salt-licker··on Julia adoption keeps climbing
Julia’s type system is not particularly user-friendly. For example, it has both a “String” and a “SubString” type which cannot always be interchanged. Their language design seem to be much more concerned with execution speed than programmer productivity — Python has the balance in the opposite direction, but they’ve been gradually improving performance for years, and this is much easier to improve after the language design is set in stone, especially as more and more people add typing info to their programs.

Also, 1-indexed arrays are a major turn-off.

salt-licker··on 3D printing boats is becoming standard practice
This is an excellent point. 3D printing will likely never replace injection molding for plastic parts above a volume of a few thousand. This is well known in the industry but largely unexamined by the media.

High-strength 3D printing however, of composites / metal, has a much higher market ceiling. Can certainly be cost-competitive with CNC and probably also expendable mold casting in the short-term.

salt-licker··on Technical Debt: Why it'll ruin your software

salt-licker··on Progress in Biology Is Slow – Here's How We Can Speed It Up
Well-written post, but the suggested solution of HTS on mice is nonsensical. First of all, we’ve cured cancer in mice many times but it’s obviously still unsolved in humans. Secondly, you’re constraining yourself to synthesized chemical space, which as others have mentioned is a grain of sand (charitably 10^10 in human history) compared to a planet’s worth (10^60 by some estimates) of possible druglike molecules.

Target ID is hard, but we also have known biologically valid targets that are simply undruggable so far (KRAS is the most obvious example). Solving computational chemistry problems is a much more tractable, high-leverage endeavor. And we can in fact use that progress to accelerate biological research itself — for example, quickly developing bioavailable tool compounds via virtual screen to test biological hypotheses in mice, a rational “pharmacological knockout” approach.

We can reduce the biological space in a smart way, we don’t have to brute force this.

salt-licker··on I don’t have time for coding challenges
I guess I'm generally going off of an interviewee's body language, which isn't entirely fair since I'm not a mind reader. And I'm sure I'm missing some cases of stage fright, which is why again I mentioned all the techniques above that I try to mitigate this, but I agree is a really unfortunate side-effect of the interview process that I don't have a fool-proof solution for.

Still, I do have some EQ. A lot of candidates exhibit visible anxiety and then get into a rhythm and calm down when they start coding. Or they visibly calm down once I start asking them questions about how they're thinking and coax them towards viable implementation. On the flip side, a lot of candidates actually exhibit overconfidence running in the wrong direction, which I try to lightly mitigate but can't prevent in all cases without giving an unfair advantage.

salt-licker··on I don’t have time for coding challenges
I’ve hired people who have not passed the coding screen (but did pass subsequent interviews) and they’ve been some of my best hires. But the type of failure really matters. Did they write generally correct code but ran out of time because the algorithm they came up with under time pressure was too complicated? Or did they fail to debug a list indexing off-by-one error, even after printing the list repeatedly? It’s sometimes a judgement call but I believe there’s a lot of signal in watching people write code in real-time
