It would seem unfair to criticizes academics for your experience, at least based on the description you gave.
You might be interested in StoneSoup, a project a friend of mine developed for teaching his week long Intro to Video Game Programming for middle school and high school students. Most of the students have little to no…
... or through the lens of "Stephen Wolfram has a huge ego".
Many universities are utilizing MOOCs and/or online material in order to implement a reverse classroom. In a reverse classroom, students watch lectures and do reading at home and class time is used to extend and…
From what I read, I don't believe it is. In my opinion it should also never be used for this purpose. While you could probably catch a lot of cheaters this way, there is a possibility for a large false positive rate. If…
Seems like just another case of Betteridge's Law of Headlines.
I wouldn't call it the "Java" philosophy. Rather, I would call it the "wet behind the ears" philosophy. It just so happens that they correlate because of the way people are trained.
We actually lost a nuclear weapon just off the coast of Spain. Even scarier is that these are not the only two instances in which nuclear weapons have gone (and still remain) missing due to negligence or accident.…
It often is. Whether or not students learn anything is the issue. Perhaps you could say that basic statistical competency should be required for a college degree.
There was a paper not too far back that used SVMs in deep learning and leaped over the then state-of-the-art performance. http://arxiv.org/abs/1306.0239
Whether or not the brain has any inherent structure for "types" is irrelevant. Types are a mechanism for providing reasoning about the correctness of code. At the very least they are a notification to the compiler or…
They are working on reimplementing ARM support in the next release. It is in an incomplete state ATM.
You should look in to Factor, a higher level concatenative language.. http://factorcode.org/ There is a package for lexical variables for those instances where stack shuffling is absolutely not the way to implement your…
If its the parentheses that get you, why not try a postfix language like forth or factor?
One thing to expand upon: This is just the classic formulation of the Multi-Armed Bandit Problem. There are countless variations to the formula which have slightly different underlying assumptions.
