Appgate | Technical Product Manager | Full-Time | Remote | https://www.appgate.com

Appgate is the Swiss army knife of network security. We empower how people work and connect by providing solutions purpose-built on Zero Trust security principles. This people-defined security approach enables fast, simple and secure connections from any device and location to workloads across any IT infrastructure in cloud, on-premises and hybrid environments.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and technically curious product manager who has a solid understanding of security and networking, and who can effectively communicate this knowledge to a variety of audiences. In this role, you’ll be responsible for core product management for our flagship product, Appgate SDP.

This role combines elements of traditional product management (such as understanding customer requirements and influencing engineering) with some aspects of traditional product marketing (such as creating technical artifacts, teaching sales engineers and partners, and thinking up creative ways to demonstrate our product’s strengths).

This will absolutely be an exciting and demanding role, as market adoption of Appgate's Software-Defined Perimeter architecture continues to grow.

If only it was as fast as awk. Is it?

Hi Jed, I was wondering what your VM box looks like? Any cool tools you would recommend?

Awful idea! You claim to be perfectly rational, however, that is not the case. Would it be perfectly rational for me to forgo my 401k to finance your startup? No, it would not. Irrationality and partiality are one in the same. Do not be biased toward your idea because you might fail -- i.e. "eggs in one basket." Right now your retirement money might not seem sacred, but later on in life...

Invent a new framework. Make use of what you already know -- i.e. HTML5, CSS3, JS, PHP, Ruby, Python & Perl.

TechCrunch?

Then skip the intro to Objective-C textbook, instead dive right into iOS development. Big Nerd Ranch's iOS Programming textbook offers three chapters worth of an introduction to Objective-C. The authors primarily talk about using the Cocoa Touch framework to write native apps in Xcode, which is what you want to do?

Are you referring to Orrick's Total Access event series?

I have been to a few. All of which offered free access to top-tier attorneys. I highly recommend attending an event if you are located in SV.

Free!

The market for the distribution of peer-reviewed academic journals fascinates me. It is ripe for disruption.

More often than not, the content that gets published is created by the same institutions that are forced to pay for Elsevier's services. Elsevier acts as the middleman. Institutions pay academics to produce journal articles. After production and peer-review, ownership of the scholarly work is transferred over to a publisher. The institution must then pay to reacquire the same content they helped produce. In the past this made sense as distribution involved printing and mailing thousands of pages worth of journal articles. Nowadays everything is digital, which negates the publisher's purpose.

There is a burgeoning movement toward open access journals. More info on the subject available here – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serials_crisis

off topic: Which is correct grammar -- "an HTML" or "a HTML" ?

This question has always bugged me.

It is worth noting that Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky are the fathers of modern-day behavioral economics. Their biggest contribution is called Prospect Theory. It goes against everything they teach you in Econ 101 -- the expected utility theory is wrong.

Kahneman won a noble prize in Economics for his work. Sadly, Tversky passed away in 1996 before he could be awarded.

This. I too am VERY interested. My email is andre at garrigo dot net. Please send me any info that I may need to proceed with this. I already live in SF and work for a tech startup, but I am always interested in learning.

I look forward to hearing from you.

You should get in contact with the Spotify guys. Seriously.

I am more than impressed by this UI. It reminds me of Rdio's UI, which I find to be better than iTunes. Spotify needs a good designer like you.

It should be a good time. We hope to get a few programmers, designers, artists and anyone else in the area who's interested in meeting like-minded people.

Tonight we will hold an icebreaker. We will also be forming teams. Tomorrow night marks the end of the hackathon. We will have presentations and vote on an audience favorite.

Thank you. This thread must have caught the attention of their support team. Looks like they finally got around to emailing me back!

It's two words: Splat F

This about covers it.

- Read and highlight the textbook before class.

- Go to class, pay attention, take notes and ask questions.

- Go to TA sections and office hours. Come with questions.

- Do the homework with time (ie not an hour before it's due).

- Start studying for exams 2-3 weeks before the exam date.

But most importantly, you really have to want to get A's. Motivation is key. While your friends are out partying and getting drunk you need to be in the library. Sounds terrible, but that's the point. There is a tradeoff. I just graduated with a B+ average. I know I could have done better, but having a social life was important to me. (Also working for Techmeme took up a considerable amount of my time).

Do what will make you most happy. Doing an exchange in Australia was a highpoint in my life. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

Rdio is the best US alternative to Spotify IMO. Come with a free 7 day trial, which is how I got hooked.

This is the same guy who brought to light Facebook's recent smear campaign against Google.

Personally, I have a higher propensity to click on official buttons than their third-party counterparts.

Both owned by UberMedia, who last week raised a huge round of funding and purchased TweetDeck.

Actually I was wrong. 2 minutes ago Engadget reported that Nokia has not scrapped MeeGo.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/11/nokia-meego-not-dead-stil...

No, unfortunately it's not going to happen. A few days ago Reuters reported that Nokia slashed the first MeeGo device before it even hit production.

My guess is that dropping the project comes as a result of signing this deal with Microsoft. Nokia seems to have opted for Windows Phone instead of MeeGo.

I despise emails that are written like chapter books. I stop reading after the 2nd or 3rd paragraph. If it's that important then you should have called.

Do you have an idea of what are looking to develop? Feel free to share as HN is trustworthy (no one is going to steal your idea).

Also, what do you bring to the table? I'm assuming you have access to capital or something along those lines.

It's a shame that this one won't hit the front page. I was really looking forward to an HN discussion on this.

Oh well, lesson learned. Next time I'll wait until things die down before I hit submit.
