Fancy a job?

Fancy a job? 06/29/2004 12:28 PM

My placement here in Lawrence, Kansas comes to an end in a few months time, and I'm now in the interesting position of needing to find my own replacement. I'm not going to beat around the bush: this is a fantastic job and an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a way in to the online news industry. The team here has won so many awards it's hard to keep track of them all, and is very well respected within the industry.

We're looking for an experienced server-side web developer. Our platform here is mod_python on Apache, but detailed knowledge of Python is not as important as a solid understanding of the web, web technologies and how to build useful web applications. Some Linux systems administration experience is essential as we are responsible for a number of servers. Applicants must have a solid understanding of SQL (we use PostgreSQL) and relational database theory. Design skills are not important: we have a talented designer on staff (who is also a dab hand at CSS).

So why would you want to move to a tiny town in the middle of Kansas to work for a local newspaper? Firstly, Lawrence is not at all like the rest of the state. It's a college town (home of the University of Kansas) with a vibrant downtown area, a thriving music scene and a great atmosphere. The cost of living is low, the quality of living high and the bright lights of Kansas City are only a 40 minute drive away. Check out our local entertainment site, Lawrence.com, for an idea of just how much this little town has going for it.

More to the point though, you should move out here because this is a job like no other. We work in a highly creative atmosphere, with the time between someone having a great idea and that idea rolling out on one of our sites measured in days, if not hours. Our unofficial mission statement (according to my boss, Rob Curley) is to "build cool shit" - and we do. I've written very little about things we've done here over the past year but I plan to make up for it this week by publishing an entry every day focusing on one of the sites we've built.

If you have any questions, post a comment or contact me directly. If you want to apply, send a résumé to aholovaty and swillison both at ljworld.com.

Adrian has more information.

Halfway through this movie you realize that the title monsters, the Alien and the Predator, have no reason to be in the same place at the same time. This ridiculousness ruins whatever else may be cool about the movie. Jason Silverman reviews Alien vs. Predator.

Google IPO Scam Victims Fooled By Fancy
Wall Street Terms

Google IPO Scam Victims Fooled By Fancy
Wall Street Terms 05/10/2004 02:32 PM
Back in March we wrote about a scam from someone who convin ced a lot of people who should know better he could sell them pre-IPO Google shares. Among the still unnamed victims were "the chairman of a global telecommunications company, a New York investment banker, a corporate attorney and a senior executive at a brokerage firm." These folks forked over half a million dollars without any due diligence to the guy who claimed to know the founders of Google from attending Stanford (which he didn't) and via working at Kleiner Perkins (again not true). We also had a post noting that a simple search query on the guy's name, though not on Google, would have turned up his questionable history. It appears that the NY Times has just discovered the story, but did a little extra sleuthing to point out that, beyond their scam-blinding greed to get in on the Google IPO, what really fooled these investment bankers and big time executives was the sophisticated Wall Street lingo used by the scammer. It turns out that if you just say "participation agreement," "stock purchase agreement" and "promissory note," combined with "Google IPO" wealthy stock brokers and executives will simply open their wallets for you. Also worth noting is that the scammer doesn't appear to have stored away most of his ill-gotten gains, but rather spent a large portion of it partying at expensive clubs and restaurants.
