You're way of calling people stupid is a stupid way of thinking.

I absolutely agree with this. All kids should be learning how to compile a basic program as they are learning their multiplication tables. They may not end up being computer scientists or mathematicians but everyone should at least get that

I think you should utilize the prefetch behavior of the link tag for situations such as these. No need for JavaScript at all.

Sorry about that. Fixed the help button.

This is cool. I would like to make it multiplayer with websockets. Similar to an old multiplayer math game I made in school. http://get24.jit.su

After looking at the source, one thought I have is that since you are dealing with such small timescales you should use the high resolution window.performance.now function (or the Date.now function for higher compatibility) as a timer inste

I am thinking this is probably an artifact of copying the assets from the game, not having access to the originals.

Yeah, my buddy was the MS campus rep for the CSSE dept. at my university. Some if the guys were building lots of really quick do nothing apps to get cash. Microsoft was trying desperately to just fill its store with as many apps as possible

Never really thought of that.. this could get Google Fiber to more cities in a smaller time frame.

This is exactly what I was thinking. They will use their resources to make it cheaper, mass manufacture them, and start selling them to next to nothing just to get the data. More power to 'em.

Not completely. When they came out with hangout integration in gmail, I completely lost all ability to make outgoing calls for a long time.

I figured as much. Just seems like a big fuss over a whole lot of nothing though if that's all it is. And 3.2 billion for that? Why couldn't Google just make their own that does exactly the same thing? I think its trendiness is al

It relies on more than that. Not only does this rely on the audience to know the factual background, but it also relies on them coming to the conclusion that you also know the factual background and are not just uninformed, misinformed, o

Because in all likelihood, the jobs most of us will be interviewing for will never require us to touch Haskell or ML. I haven't worked with it, but I've worked with Lisp/Scheme/PROLOG and others. I'm always down for

I agree with Colin. I think knowing these types of things is great and studying them before an interview shows effort. I'm not sure I would ask someone to implement a B+ tree or BST or something on the spot, but knowing what one is, ha

I am not sure about the job yet. I did get another interview on Skype. I had to do coding in a shared text editor while two interviewers watched me through a web cam. Puts someone looking over your shoulder to shame as far as pressure goes.

I agree, they mentioned something along the same lines while I was coming up with my horrible attempts. I really like the algorithm as well.

Yes, I wonder though if books with interview prep sections like this aren't used more by the employers in later years as a reference for good interview questions to ask rather than programmers actually trying to prepare for interview q

I agree. > Actually, here is a serious question. Would there be value in collecting, indexing, and cross-referencing all the classics from HN? Sounds like a decent idea to me. Seems like searching is the only way to get at the old stuff.

by CoryG89 13y ago
Yeah, I wish I had been reading HN back 1,429 days ago.

I use JSHint Gutter and configure it to run on every save. It's really great.

I was thinking all of these things too as I was trying it. I think there is something fundamentally wrong about this. I don't think the words per minute for a programmer's typing is important. As you say, to get the higher score,

From where I stand, this seems to be true of Bitcoin as well. I've never had any Bitcoins personally, but don't you have to store them in a wallet, which you're either going to have to worry about backing up, keeping secure,

Yeah, I don't look at Anonymous nearly the same way you do. I think of Anonymous as an idea or a principle rather than an actual group . I see no reason why anonymity cannot have a place in activism.

No, but I'd be willing to try.

I don't think so. If I find it I'm going to download it just to check for my email address.

As a software engineer just about to graduate from college. When I see drawings like that I just can't believe that people who know enough to draw something like that can actually do it without feeling like they are the definition of e
