I've been reading it for some time, but it's taking me forever because I often find that I want a deeper understanding of what he's talking about: what's this molecule composition again? What are its bounds? Why is it more fragile anyway? How does redox works again?
I think it needs to be read with a BSc chemistry class cheat-sheet of some sort, which I haven't found yet. Anyone knows any dense, crystal-clear chemistry 101 ressource on the web?
Thanks for the clarification. What I perceived, and maybe should have said above, was simply that it would be hard for me to make a simple GUI front-end which would follow CUA, for instance, while leveraging the solid back-end.
About NeoVIM I agree with everything except for the fact that - if I'm not mistaken, but maybe I am - the back-end is still tied to the VIM key bindings & modes. I don't think they plan on changing that.
Regardless of my personal preference, I always found it odd: the back-end should be independent of what I perceive as an interface "detail". Even if, in this case, the detail is part of the software's identity.
We're a small startup building a dynamic tool for reverse-engineers: recording the entire execution of a VM (on a limited timespan) & replaying it on our custom symbolic CPU for manual analysis. The user gets to see, down to the assembly language, exactly what happened on the machine. It's a really, really cool project to work on:
- no such tool exist on the market yet
- we get to have a strong relationship with some of our clients which are at the top of their field
- it's down to earth, down to the metal
- it's all developed on Debian, but we may have to dive into any OS' internals
The kind of problems we face every day look like:
- managing the amount of data we generate & reworking our backend to scale it up
- fixing our emulation engine, extending the x86 support and planning new architectures
- providing insight through new, relevant data visualizations
We're looking for very autonomous software engineers for R&D and UX developments (see http://tetrane.com/recrutement.html): C++ & python, Qt, basic computer architecture knowledge but more importantly a strong, strong ability - and will - to learn.
If you're a reverse-engineer, we need you as well! Basically, we want you to eat our own dogfood and give us bug-reports, insights and visibility :) You'll have the opportunity to help create the next-gen set of tools, you'll have a lot of freedom in what you choose to work on, you'll have time to improve your skills and your network of relations. Working with us could be a very interesting step in your career.
All in all, we are looking for people who are self-driven, creative but rigorous and good team-players. We believe in giving a lot of room in choosing what you work on based on what you perceive as the most urgent, but the whole team must be involved and support your decisions.
If you're interested, shoot us an email at jobs (at) tetrane dot com !
Hope it's not too late to post here, and hope to see you soon :)
I'm surprised no one has yet generated 3D models from what we've received so far. Surely we could somehow algorithmically extract at least partial height information from the shadows? I gave it a quick try previously but to no avail.

Edit: grammar.
