I built something like this awhile ago (http://weather.basementserver.org/) as an afternoon hobby project. I'm shocked that Google hasn't added this feature yet!
Counsyl | Software Engineering (Robotics) | South San Francisco | ONSITE
Counsyl is a health company that offers DNA screening for diseases that can impact men, women, and their children. We screen patient's DNA for inherited (and other) conditions in our automated lab: https://www.counsyl.com/
We are looking for a Software Engineer to join the Automation Software team. We are a small team that builds the software that runs automated systems that prepare blood samples for DNA sequencing. We have a modern stack (Python + Django + Postgres + React running on Linux), and day-to-day do everything from building user interfaces to controlling industrial robotic arms from a web browser.
Check out the links below and apply online, or shoot me an email at taj at counsyl.com if this sounds interesting to you!
Hey! I have been following Counsyl for quite a long time, and it is very impressive what you guys are doing. I am a python guy, and have done few open source contributions; if not many. Are you guys very strict about 5 years of work ex if one has Masters?
It's probably a PCI compliance scan. They check for a lot of things like (basic) XSS, CSRF, insecure versions of PHP/Apache, unprotected folders named "admin/", backup files which could leak source code, and so on. It's mostly just for show, but can catch some stupid mistakes. Typically you'll have to whitelist their servers so that they don't trip your firewall/IDS/whatever.
Nah, that would be fine. It's not a problem with the source being available, more the fact that the file could contain sensitive information like passwords (like say in a config.php file).
Technologies: C, C++, Java, Python, R, SQL, and standard bioinformatics tools are my primary tools at the moment, but I have fluency in other technologies as well (primarily webdev and embedded).
What: I'm looking primarily for opportunities for software engineering within the life sciences. I'm currently finishing up my MS in Computer Science, with an emphasis on Machine Learning and Bioinformatics. I'm open to both industry (especially startup!) and more traditional academic/research institute opportunities. In addition to machine learning and bioinformatics work, I also enjoy low-level embedded development, and would be interested in biomedical devices (and the like) as well. I'd love to hear from you!
To prevent them from falling into the wrong hands and another nation building an SR-71:
> In 1968, a presidential order required that all molds and tools used to build the SR-71 be destroyed so that the plane could never be built by anyone again. This also meant that spare parts could not be made, so if there were any major problems, planes in storage would have to be cannibalized.

> 8. How many SR-71's were built? 50 Blackbird airframes of various designations. The dies or molds were destroyed as directed by then Secretary of Defense McNamara to prevent any other nation from building the aircraft.

If you don't mind hosting yourself, Seafile is also open source and has really nice Mac/Windows/Linux/Android/iOS client apps. It also does delta syncs, which I don't believe ownCloud supports yet:
What's with the lack of delta syncs in all these systems? As far as I know, neither Google Drive nor OneDrive do it. Now you're saying ownCloud doesn't do it either. I didn't even think to look at it for oneCloud because obviously they'd support it.
I consider it to be an essential feature, to the point that I won't bother with something that doesn't support it. I guess I'm unusual in that respect.
I suspected I would get downvoted for not loving Dropbox. And I was right. Interesting.
FYI
rdiff is the reference implementation or first example of a utility written with librsync, which is the library that Dropbox used to build their "business".
