Nice idea in theory; in practice, it might be tricky to have the organizational incentives aligned to make sure such a course is rigorous enough to be useful, rather than yet another worthless and trivial humanities…
Please don't confuse the US with our government! (or, rather, with the subset of people in our government who happen to be talking at a given time---there are many levelheaded, effective people working in our government…
Google the Dutch-American Friendship Treaty. It makes it trivial for American entrepreneurs to move to NL
Yes.. GP is correcting _Egyptian_ to Palestinian
My networking lab class (at a top5 school) used AWS, with the reasons that it's more widely used and better documented than GCP or Azure. Tip: You get more free credit (by like 50% iirc) if you sign up for AWS Educate…
Pandoc doesn't go from PDF to anything afaik
My sister is in Tulsa and has a _very_ nice 4+2 (or maybe 3+2, idr, but it's a well-built, big house on an acre); it cost her $250k. Where I live (central Illinois, 200000 person metro area), prices are even lower.
Having two objectives (eg, offense and defense) doesn't preclude sometimes making decisions that trade a setback in one of the objectives for an advance in the other.
Thanks for the replies!
> Once you have an accurate model for a lot of classes it's much easier to add new ones with just a few samples. This is pretty cool. Do you know of any good references for stuff like this? Not sure what the right topic…
"Real" is a technical term from economics and roughly means "after controlling for price increases".
A little off-topic, but clicking imgur "direct" links on mobile redirects you to the standard m.imgur.com URL now? Eww.
Regrettably, in the world as it is, we need--extraordinarily--competent people working on our weapons of mass destruction, too (in particular, nuclear command and control). Not a job I'd want, and not one I'm happy…
2005 must have been nice: "Online, the answer tends to be a lot simpler. Most people who publish online write what they write for the simple reason that they want to. You can't see the fingerprints of PR firms all over…
Check BOAZ BARAK's Harvard class for a references list
I think the sense in which GP is using the word is substantially stronger than that--or, maybe, it depends on what you mean by "rights" and "opportunities". (You could probably find people who think it's egalitarian to…
If you type fast, you can probably get a whole username (or personal name, or street address) in without seeing the red warning. (That said, it looks like it _will_ show "not secure" by default, even before you type…
And, frankly, many strong undergraduate programs, perhaps especially ones which are also very large (my school has 500 person class size even in your second-to-last and last years, so you need to go above and beyond to…
Clicking around a little on the OP site's gallery led me to http://blog.geocities.institute/ and, in particular, to the post on the front page as of today, "9/11 and Vernacular Web"…
The FT also publishes articles of extraordinary quality. Their political reporting is some of the closest-to-center out there. (But I agree the instant paywall is a bit rough.)
1/4 acre is pretty normal for middle-class neighborhoods in much of the US. A land tax would have to be pretty drastic to force people to knock down houses, split/combine plots, and build new houses repositioned to be…
Translation: accept lower pay because you're doing interesting work in the national interest with good job security and benefits; go through a background check because that's part of getting a job like this
This is really cool! I was able to hear the fundamental with its slider turned all the way down and the harmonics up using decent in-ear headphones
Lectures are great. Material is at a solid undergrad level (should be suitable for someone with 1-2yrs of CS background). No programming assignments, so I would go look at Phil Levis's website to find the "regular"…
