Congrats and Thanks!
By the way, I did 6 internships total during college, and Amazon was by far the most enjoyable one. If you're a student, apply.
- A particle accelerator at UBC (http://www.triumf.ca) - An automotive parts plant (http://www.vdo.com) - Apple (x2) - A 3D animation tools company (http://www.sidefx.com)
I'm comparing to two other internships - two at a theoretical physics institute in Waterloo and two with Bloomberg in NYC.
My contact info's in my profile.
Is it because you offer a lot of training or simply because you figure he'll pick up what he needs fairly quickly and eventually surpass the app security expert? Or is there a different reason?
I asked a similar question to Zed Shaw at CUSEC last year. Something along the lines what do you think about Joel Spolsky saying you should only hire the very best. He said he prefers someone who's willing and able to learn because he'll just teach them and they'll become a very valuable person.
It's simple. The best security researchers are people who have (or at least could) ship software. There is a big swath of high-end work that you simply can't deliver if you can't code. That's where Matasano plays. I suppose you could be a very strong Payment Card Industry certification consultant just by getting very good with WebInspect, but to reverse an embedded kernel, isolate the code that handles a protocol you caught on the wire, and then code a fuzzer for that protocol, you need to be able to read code in a bunch of languages and write code very well in at least one of them.
As a consultancy, there are fringe benefits to our clients from us staffing projects with former devs:
* Devs know how to talk to other devs without sounding like morons or bureaucratic checklist-checkers, and sounding like that is a big problem in my industry. For instance, devs don't tell clients that single-line changes to shipping codebases are "trivial" and should only take minutes to roll out.
* Devs can provide remediation advice that is better than "switch to parameterized prepared statements" or "check input better".
But the reality is, we like working with devs because they are on the whole better at breaking software. They read faster, they don't balk at writing complicated test programs, and they know how pieces fit together --- and those junctions are where software usually fails worst.
For one thing, even though everyone always goes around arguing that there's only one right way to do things, the fact is that any given organization has their own habits and methods and reasons, and very experienced people may be more reluctant to "fit in".

Another 'Inner chiming in :-)
HBase is a BigTable style columnar style (with support for certain kinds of range queries: see the Google BigTable paper). The distribution model is strong consistency, the backing store is built on top of Hadoop's HDFS. Hadoop's name mode is the single central point / "special" node (although there's work being done by the Hadoop team on having multiple namenodes, afaik).
Cassandra takes yet another approach, mixing parts of Dynamo's consistency/distribution model with parts of BigTable's data model.
The two are different projects, solving different problems. I am a commiter to Voldemort, but I play with/like HBase and Cassandra as well. One size does not fit all :-)
Off the top of my head:
Ahh well, compared to the number of openings in Bangalore.India ... :-)

Quora is a continually improving collection of questions and answers. We're a startup based in Palo Alto, CA founded by Adam D'Angelo, who was previously CTO and VP of engineering at Facebook, and Charlie Cheever, who led Facebook Platform and Facebook Connect.

Some of the challenges are highly algorithmic, such as coming up with ways to organize and categorize the information effectively so that users can efficiently find what they need; others are very technical, such as working to make a web application that is complex while still being very fast; and many of the challenges are in product design, such as figuring out a way to set up and grow a healthy community and constructing intuitive interfaces for users.
We are committed to building a cutting-edge technology company that develops software the right way and is a place where engineers love to work. Some of the tools we are using include Python, Pylons, nginx, memcached, Thrift, and git. We're using continuous deployment and EC2, so all code you write will go live to production within minutes no matter what time it is. Both founders are developers. We want to build a fantastically strong engineering team and the first engineers that join us should set the tone for that.
