Any ideas anyone? Thanks :)

Yousef,
Here’s your chance to make a difference. Do you want to lead the UI development of a hot, new Green-Tech product?

Sentilla could be a great play for a few reasons: a) it’s a start-up with large, Fortune 1000, paying customers, b) it’s in a HOT market segment, c) it is well-funded, and d) there has been a flurry of acquisitions in/around this segment (eg. Sentilla has a profitable exit strategy).

Please call me to share your thoughts.

Sentilla - Energy Manager for Data Centers

Search: Front End Software Engineer/Architect

Location: Redwood City, CA

Sentilla Overview:

Currently, the world's data centers use as much energy as the airlines and their energy use is growing faster than any other industry. Sentilla tackles the energy problem in data centers by providing the world’s first software-only solution to actively extract more performance for every Watt used in IT environments. With Sentilla’s products, global enterprises can now track, manage, and reduce that energy consumption. To continue to drive market adoption and product innovation, Sentilla is seeking a Front-End Engineer/Architect that can put to use all of their skills in a fast-paced environment building Sentilla’s enterprise application and tools.

Position Charter/Goals:
• Complete redesign and software rewrite of the entire front-end for Sentilla Energy Manager enterprise application and tools.
• Sentilla’s Front-End engineering tasks range anywhere from tweaking the visual design and layout of a product view using HTML/CSS, to modifying Java-based web API methods to provide the UI (and other users of the product API) with intuitively design functionality.
• As an integral member of the engineering team at a start-up, you’ll be working closely with people working on all different parts of the product, and ensuring that the user-facing portion of Sentilla’s Energy Manager for Data Centers provides a quick, intuitive interface that shows off the power of the product.

Responsibilities:
• Continuously maintain and improve the Django/JavaScript web application.
• Work with product marketing to add new features to the web application
• Work with core engineering team to flesh out customer-facing APIs

Qualifications:

• Have some familiarity with JavaScript libraries: know when to use them, and when not to use them.
• Extreme comfort with Java(EE) and Python.
• A track record at designing consistent, usable user interface, as well as customer-facing APIs
• A love for writing well-organized, reusable software
• Comfort working in a Linux-based environment.
• Familiarity with, or willingness to learn quickly, about Glassfish and Django.

Disqus is the top commenting platform in my opinion. Not only is Facebook Connect integration nice but allowing users to also use their Twitter accounts to leave comments is awesome.

MySQL-python version 1.2.3c1 works without changes with MySQL running, using setup tools 'easy_install'. I originally installed the 64-bit OS X MySQL package and had 64/32-bit problems, so I removed it (you also need to delete the installer package from '/Library/Receipts/') and used the 32-bit package. I also removed the failed MySQL-python install (which failed because of the 64-bit MySQL) with 'easy_install -m MySQL-python', then deleted the egg from the python 'site-packages' directory. I'm also using Python 2.6.

I'm not from Juniper, but security-lab1.juniper.net is a Tor exit node, so it is possible another party was running their bot through Junipers hidden service.
