Vector Software, Inc. || Full-Stack Developer || Berkeley, CA, ONSITE

https://www.vectorcast.com/

We're looking for a full-stack developer (Python/SQL/JS) to bring embedded application developers next-level insight into code quality and test coverage, and to spread that insight throughout their organization. You'll be working in a small team on meaningful, high-level navigation of data for complex low-level systems. You'll be an integral part of development, from analysis, to design, to implementation.

If you're into Web development and have a background with compiled languages, test systems, and/or the embedded space, let's talk!

1. Recreation, it's fun! Also because it's often a better combination of healthy/tasty/unique than what I could buy pre-made.

2. No, but sometimes I wish I did.

3. There's too much variety here, but maybe I come back to minestrone, tomato/canellini casserole, and pan fried proteins (fish/pork/beef) a lot. I bake a lot of bread.

4. No.

5. Learn to tell whether or not something is cooking the way you want based on the sound it makes as it sizzles in the pan. That simple tip has changed the quality of my cooking forever. Develop recipes around a common set of staples with minor swap outs. Kind of "modular". You get variety without a ton of anxiety. I learned to think this way from Bittman's how to cook everything, though I don't use that book very often anymore, it was a brilliant set of training wheels to break free of recipes.


I am bothered by the last line in this comment; I think would agree if we all grew up in the exact same conditions with the exact same stigma against each one of us and exact same social, educational, and capital resources at our disposal, but we do not. Here's a dissenting opinion, or at least something to think about.

It's worth considering that a workforce might be 90% "white male" because 90% of the time, the environment we live in nurtures "white males" to fit there better, not because intrinsically, 90% of the time "white males" are just better at it.

That's not to say I disagree with the first part. Google isn't going to make people that don't fit in the job suddenly magical at it; however, I think it's important to recognize racial disparity as a problem that --will not fix itself if left alone--, instead of calling disgusting those who might consider an equalizing force somewhere in society to be important.

These numbers clearly aren't so disparate because "no reason at all" or because "whites are just better," so why do you think they are? And also, how can we even have a discussion or make changes without paying specific attention to race?


In Europe, there are many white people who are the subject of racism. In the UK there's racism towards Eastern Europeans and Irish Travellers.

On a personal level, many of my (white) relatives were racially purged.

That is why I find the term "white male" to be wholly disgusting.

I can't speak for America's problems, only to say that if racism is your weapon to fight racism, then all you will achieve is to ensure its continuing existence.
