Hi, if anybody is interested in a part-time Java programmer position in a research lab, send me a message for details. May be a good opportunity for a dependent or a foreign student living in Okinawa..
Aww. Where'd your previous guy go? :(

he's still here, but became too successful and too busy, so we need another one :)
Awesome. :) Congrats!
I am now working purely with C#. It's a beautiful thing! :D

How much time are we talking about? And what kind of experience are you looking for?

I got to go with the how much time question.
If either of you guys get this job, it's a good place and you are fortunate. I'd take it except now I REALLY don't have that kind of time...

Time and salary depends on further discussion, but the position is not meant for someone who already has a full-time job. It should be at least 2-3 days a week, because we need to get some work done :) If the work goes well, it may turn into a full-time technician position.

Oh, and the requires experience: programming in Java (J2SE). The main purpose is to improve a bio-informatics scientific software written in Java.

I am not trying to question you but, Bioinformatics software in Java, are you sure?
I thought they were usually usually written in Perl for real-time processing capability.

Yeah, every company I have ever worked with in Biological science fields have all of their code written in Perl.
Its more suitable fr rapid prototyping.
Perl???? That's so 1996... There's got to be something as good if not better by now...

Yes, I am sure. It is Java.

I can see Perl possibly (that's a very loose possibly) for heavy computation, but not for rapid prototyping. For rapid prototying, I don't think anything is going to beat ASP.NET w/ Telerik (or some other vendor) components...
PHP is trash for heavy computation. I wonder how strictly computational C# would hold up. I imagine it'd be heavy as well, but I'm not sure if it'd be any heavier than Java. Why not plain old vanilla C?
Or something lean and mean for the computation and then something heavier and more visual for the graphing once the data has been created. That just adds more weight, though. If it works fine with Java, it ain't broke, so don't fix it. :D

As software guys that's true, but when you work for somebody (in this case biologists) you do what the customer wants you to do (in the language they would be familiar with).
When I worked with Boston Scientific, and the SUNY Albany Nano-research facilities, on this type of software they demanded Perl (we are talking in the last 2 years), cause thats what they know, and they won't be quick to change.
Now there's an example if it ain't broke don't fix it.
The most high-tech manufacturing Robots in the world(semi-conductor robots, ect.) are still being programmed in either Basic or Ladder Logix, Fuji, Sony, Camalot, Asymtek, GE(Fanuc), Still won't allow another language to be used.
It was like programming, when I still had my TI-99-4A
