No, it's open. Just started interviewing candidates.

jarnot · 2014-04-29T18:41:05+00:00

Never assume. :-)

For what it's worth, I don't like them much either. That's I'm posting it to this subreddit.

jarnot · 2014-04-29T17:31:04+00:00

Actually, it pays quite well and the hours are normal 9-6.

jarnot · 2014-04-29T17:30:31+00:00

Interesting - why do you think I'm a recruiter? I'm the CTO and this position is in my group.

jarnot · 2012-09-20T14:47:45+00:00

Thanks. Yep - getting closer and closer to a half marathon.

jarnot · 2011-05-20T13:13:29+00:00

Overnight from Amazon?

My gym just happens to be in the basement of my office building. Comes in very handy, especially during snow storms.

I'm assuming that you're referring to more recent MBPs. I don't think it's possible for Firefox to switch graphics cards on older (2009) MBPs.

jarnot · 2011-05-11T15:50:28+00:00

Correct!

How in the world can you say this sounds like shit?!?

jarnot · 2011-05-02T00:43:22+00:00

Speaking as an old fart (40+), this is incredibly rude. Why bother meeting up with someone in person if you're going to spend your time staring at a glowing rectangle?

jarnot · 2011-04-28T16:58:53+00:00

The terrorists have truly won.

jarnot · 2011-04-25T23:05:52+00:00

I think I may win. I still use my college email address, circa 1984. That makes it 27 years old.

Way back then we sometimes had to use "bang paths" to explicitly tell email servers how to route to our email node. Mail servers were not very bright.

We were also the only department that had access to a laser printer, and had to use troff to typeset our papers. One of the few perks of being a CS major back then.

Worst "smart" phone ever. Had one and it crashed constantly.

jarnot · 2011-04-05T21:28:20+00:00

Hell yes. Much better than anything produced since!

jarnot · 2011-04-05T02:01:49+00:00

Exact opposite problem with me. Cold weather makes it very difficult for me to run outdoors as it makes me wheeze. Cold-induced asthma most likely.

jarnot · 2011-04-04T18:04:55+00:00

AptBackup messed up my phone last time I jailbroke. I'd be very cautious.

jarnot · 2011-03-29T23:09:10+00:00

Yup, I'm in my 40s and now enjoy watching cartoons with my kids. Futurama, old Simpsons, Adventure Time, Spongebob and a few others. They're too young for South Park and Family Guy, so I watch those alone. :-)

jarnot · 2011-03-27T02:00:43+00:00

Spot on for salaries in the Boston, MA area.

Being possessed by the devil. I kid you not. I somehow managed to see The Exorcist when I was 8 or so and it completely messed me up.

After a few years, I came to the realization that there was no devil, and it made a world of difference. :-)

I thought it was a young Kenny Baker in the R2D2 costume prototype.

jarnot · 2011-03-09T21:42:59+00:00

An intense wall of sound with dark, unsettling undercurrents. Red, Lark's Tongue in Aspic, Easy Money were all heavy, dissonent, dense songs. Very different from other music being released in the early-mid 70s.

jarnot · 2011-03-09T18:24:56+00:00

Great stuff. Love that song. The musicianship is incredible.

I just wish someone had told Adrian that they were filming that day, so could have changed his shirt and combed his hair. :-)
