OK, thank you! 01:22 bene BD Kim is the group leader and Christ Botka is the director 01:22 bene Chris 01:22 bene i worked at hms for 7 years, so i know all those peeps 01:22 bene i have no idea about the non-US worker bit 01:22 project2501a heh, yeah, that's the tough part. 01:23 bene i do know that it's generally easier to get in if you have a phd 01:23 project2501a E-1 specialized worker 01:23 bene masters doesn't give them as much wiggle room 01:23 project2501a HPC system administrators count as much. 01:23 bene with a phd, they can give you a "research position" initially and then transfer you to staff if you like them/they like you 01:23 project2501a same as PhDs. 01:24 project2501a ooh. ok, I see. 01:24 bene yeah, they can get you in the back door that way 01:24 bene probably not really legal, but i have seen it done before :-) 01:25 project2501a hehehe 01:25 project2501a I had an interview with Rutgers last fall. They suggested the New Jersey Espressway way 01:25 project2501a #friendofours 01:26 project2501a bene: is there a chance I can get in touch with any of those gentlemen? 01:26 project2501a or get an introduction or something? 01:26 project2501a I mean, it would be kinda awkward to message the gentlemen out of the blue. 01:30 project2501a and of course, if you are comfortable with it. I just want to pass my resume along. 01:30 bene i can cc you into an email with chris 01:30 bene but i'm not sure what it will buy you 01:31 bene it's probably as effective to submit through the HR portal and then email him directly saying you researched the position, talked to some other harvard employees and felt like you owuld be a good fit, etc 01:31 project2501a Ah! OK, that works 01:31 bene standard cover letter, but showing that you made some effort to learn more about hte position 01:31 bene you can mention you talked to me 01:31 project2501a the job has been open for 68 days so far. 01:31 bene i think he has a good opinion of me :-) 01:31 bene yeah 01:31 project2501a so, no good candidates. 01:31 bene so the downside to that position is that hms has a hard time keeping people 01:31 bene nods 01:31 project2501a how come? 01:35 bene pdurbin can probably give you some details on the fasrc job 01:37 bene james cuff is the director of that group 01:37 bene he's active on twitter 01:37 bene you can DM him and he'll probably respond 01:37 project2501a ok! 01:38 bene http://blog.jcuff.net/ 01:38 bene i have to put some boys to bed 01:38 bene i'll be back in an hour 01:38 project2501a alright! 01:39 project2501a re: xservers: I am trying to bring a gpl'ed version of Platform LSF to MacOSX Yoshemite 01:45 pdurbin project2501a: you could also lurk at http://groups.google.com/group/odybot 01:46 project2501a ok! 02:00 project2501a http://blog.jcuff.net/2014/12/of-big-microscopes-and-even-bigger-data.html holy crap it reminds me of the filesystem on Lumina Next Gen machines 02:17 pdurbin James, if you're reading this, you're welcome back any time! http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2012-03-02#i_5237486 :) 14:26 pdurbin You people on the East coast think you have it bad, with snow-storms and… - https://plus.google.com/+LinusTorvalds/posts/RzSZFYWn7sX 20:13 codex pdurbin: http://blog.vpetkov.net/2015/01/27/ghost-glibc-remote-linux-vulnerability-poc-exploit-cve-2015-0235/ 21:46 pdurbin codex: patched. thanks 22:37 pdurbin of course, based on https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-0090.html only RHEL5 is affected, not RHEL6 22:40 pdurbin oh, this is for RHEL6 and RHEL7: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-0092.html 22:51 project2501a char cseqno; 22:51 project2501a int seqno; 22:51 project2501a cseqno = seqno; 22:51 project2501a shoot me. 22:52 project2501a *cough* i meant, what wonderful coders scientists are.
