Excellent job, this has the potential to be huge. I told my girlfriend about you guys last week and she seemed impressed. The first self made female millionaire in the US was in the hair buisness [1], I think it's a market that is unde

I cannot believe that crosshairs actually used hairs. Mindblowing.

I just started SICP today and am using this source. I have no idea what I'm getting myself into but am looking forward to it.

Wow, this could be a game changer. Imagine using a tool like this to teach math as well. Great job guys.

It's very sobering to realize that if the government wanted to track my every movement they could easily do so. Arguing about the security features of Android vs. iOS just seems redundant now.

Looks like an excellent resource. What would the prerequisite math skills be before diving into this work?

Twitter sort of has this functionality via lists. During football season I only look at my 'NFL List' which is comprised of football analysts, beat writers, other media folk and 'regular' but smart football fans.

I totally agree with this. I've seen other posts mentioning timeline changes, protocol changes, and opening up the API ecosystem, but I don't see any of these changes actually affecting Twitters bottom line. Twitter is a great pla

There is no standard way to interview a software engineer. Whenever one of these threads come up we see multiple posters explaining their process, and while each process has it's upsides and downsides, no two are exactly the same. For

Yeah but why compare Snapchat to Valve? They are not compeitive, they do not cross domains, if we're talking about the efficiency and quality and other metrics with regards to Snapchat I think they should be compared with their own cla

Why are you comparing Snapchat to video game developers? They are a social media company and advertising platform and are pioneers of a new technology (AR). They should be compared to their peers.

Wow this is unbelievable, I know sexism is still very much real in the workplace but I'm floored it's this overt. And the incompetence shown by HR is baffling.

Great post, thanks for the resources. I find there are a lot of online resources for those looking to learn algorithms and data structures but I've had trouble finding the same breadth and depth of resources surrounding the math behind

It's one thing to talk about your plan, it's another thing to actually execute it. We've seen bloated startup after bloated startup, I think running a lean (and I mean lean, 3 employees is nuts to me) ship like this is very h

I've found that after a while you can train your body to be more resistant to hunger pangs, if you feel a bit of a pang, get some tea or water. Now obviously if you're really hungry feel free to eat a meal, but I've noticed t

Good point. The organization that runs fabs (TMG) is also notoriously tight lipped in regards to corporate security, I would image they assessed leak risk before opening the fab.
