project or startup, the best way to learn the ropes is to work for one.

We are currently looking for an individual to help develop a web-based portal that will serve as part of a study on the effectiveness of a self-monitored, goal-driven, activity prescription programme for patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease. The portal will be intended for the average internet-user, and will handle user-entered data to calculate various health measurements and scores, while acting as a hub for web and e-mail-delivered feedback and health content.
We will be offering paid remuneration, which will be negotiated along with the duration of the project. There is also a possibility of making the position part of a work-study or co-op program. The ideal candidate should have experience in web page development and computer programming, particularly the Ruby On Rails and/or .NET frameworks.
Qualified individuals can e-mail their CV to Dr. David Alter of the University of Toronto and Institute of Clinical and Evaluative Sciences at dalter(a)ices.on.ca<mailto:dalter@ices.on.ca>
Hi CS Club Industry list,
Please find an invitation below to all Waterloo students to attend a Windows 8 hackathon at Microsoft’s designated locations.
Anyone in Toronto or done exams by then would be able to attend and it would be a great opportunity to get visibility in Microsoft.

Hi CS Club,
I just wanted to share with you an awesome service that sends subscribers a new technical/programmer interview question every other day. It's like SAT Question of the Day but for interview questions. This is an invaluable resource and gives you a huge competitive edge! Sign up here (http://www.InterTechTion.com) - its 100% free!
Here's a sample question (more on site):
5/4/2012 - Given an array of integers, devise an algorithm to find the largest number possible from a concatenation of the integers in the array. Each number must be used exactly once.
ex. input: [59, 58, 5, 1, 2]
returns: 5,958,521
See the answer (http://www.intertechtion.com/answers/5-4-2012.html).

Hello,
Can you please send this out to your members for our upcoming Tech Talk on
May 7th? We will also be hosting an Info Session on May 7th during lunch if
any of your members are interested in attending that as well. It will cover
an entirely different topic than the Tech Talk and be a great source for
general information about the company.
Thanks,
Cassie

Palantir Technologies Tech Talk
Monday, May 7th
6:00pm - 7:30pm
Davis Centre 1302
Join us for dinner and drinks after the talk at McGinnis FrontRow!
iPad Raffle!
Please join some of our team members at Palantir Technologies, who will
discuss mmap and the mortgage crisis.
In the aftermath of the 2008 economic crisis, large banks have been saddled
with the prospect of foreclosing on millions of distressed mortgages, at a
financial cost of billions of dollars and an incalculable social cost.
Crucial to solving this problem is the ability to model and analyze these
millions of loans in real time, enabling lenders to price homes so that they
can find effective and mutually beneficial alternatives to foreclosure.
In this talk, we'll describe how engineers at Palantir are working on a
calculation engine that supports such analyses. We'll outline our design
goals of constructing a platform that supports queries against large sets of
data at interactive speeds and exposes a high-level object-oriented
interface that enables analysts to construct models intuitively without
having to worry about the underlying implementation details. We'll describe
the different architectures we explored in prototyping the system, demo how
to use our product to analyze massive datasets, and discuss how we've
ultimately deployed it in the field.
About Palantir: Palantir <http://www.palantir.com/> has been building its
data integration and analysis platforms (aka Intelligence Infrastructure
<http://www.palantirtech.com/infrastructure> ) for over six years. Our two
products, Palantir Government <http://palantir.com/government/overview> and
Palantir Finance <http://palantir.com/finance/overview> represent a whole
new category of software that fundamentally change the way data analysis
problems are approached. Our platforms seamlessly integrate disparate
sources of data into a single coherent data model. In the end-user realm,
our analysis tools sit atop the data platforms, delivering unheard of
access, ease-of-use, and security to experts - humans who know a lot about a
specific real-world problem but little of data systems.

Also, we will be hosting an Information Session in the Tatham Centre on May
7th from 11:30 - 1:00pm. Some of our team members at Palantir Technologies,
will discuss how Palantir is revolutionizing the analysis of hard and
important problems that face our world today, show off a demo of Palantir's
software, and explain how you can be a part of our mission. Come join us if
you are interested in learning about opportunities within our teams, or if
you're just curious about Palantir in general. Food will be provided and an
iPad Raffle will be held, if interested, please RSVP at

Hey CSC Exec!
I'm helping run a conference at the University of Toronto this weekend, and
we're opening up our coding competition/hackathon to non-delegates. It runs
for a few hours on Saturday night and winners have a chance at thousands of
dollars in cash and interviews at Nulogy (the company presenting with us).
It would be wicked if you could pass this on (below) to the CSC.
Thank you!

cleanest solutions to coding problems via your own web app. At stake? Over
$2000 in cold, hard cash, and job interviews! Nulogy is one of Toronto’s
fastest-growing tech companies, managing the some of the world’s largest
and most complex supply chains. Are you up to the challenge?
