From the historical point of view, this heavy decoupling is associated with microkernels which fell out of favor with the rise of the Linux kernel. I think in this day and age, modern programming languages could make building a microkernel

P.S. I specifically underline references and research experience because that's where it appears you'd be weakest at the moment. Getting a 4.0 GPA in your grad school coursework (which is online, I presume) says a lot more about y

I would say, with your background, consider applying to DeepMind[1], or a national research lab. What you'd be looking for would be "entry level" research work. This would allow you to easily stand out in your applicant pool,

The audio quality of these interviews made me grimace. Audio quality aside, this looks like it would be a great resource for anyone trying to go through a "FAANG-style" multi-round interview process.

Posts like these really continue drive home the message of "Silicon Valley is just a shell of what it used to be. Only go there for the sake of relocation or with a job offer in hand." There's nothing left for the dreamers or

This really drives home a sentiment I've acquired during the course of my college education: CS/Math is often considered "hard", but I feel that's just because we've struggled with getting good visual/verb

FWIW, after realizing I never directly answered your question, I figured I should give you a full response. Rospy aside, writing and implementing your own SLAM/path-planning tools in ROS is quite simple once you get familiar with the a

This is some really cool information! I implemented a map-parsing algorithm that used a data structure that enabled neighboring cell access in constant time. It's biggest weakness is that very high-resolution occupancy maps take quite

I have not used real robotic simulations, but I have used RViz and ROS for testing my own path-finding algorithms. Performance on my Late 2015 MacBook Pro was stuttery (about 15-20 fps), but still good enough to be somewhat usable. Overall,

I think the best takeaways from the SO survey come from year-over-year analyses. You can watch JS explode in popularity over time, and see how quickly languages and libraries get adopted. It would also be really nice if the "popularity

I think this is the first game I've seen posted to HN that wasn't a "Show HN" post. That being said, I haven't been a member of HN for that long. I'd be very interested to see what else has been posted here.

May I ask what distro you're running? I tried Ubuntu 16.04LTS some time ago, and it didn't seem to get along very well with my mid-2015 MBP.

I'm kinda surprised the Nvidia was totally cool with this presentation. Maybe the engineers think this info should be commonplace but are trapped in NDA hell?

I wonder how long it took to compile all of this. Great work!

Why would Oracle do this to their language? It seems like a surefire way to make sure a business will never choose Java ever again. When it comes to languages, I think there's definitely a right and a wrong way to implement changes. It

I've heard good things about Quandl, especially if you're willing to foot the bill for some of their premium datasets. https://www.quandl.com/

Thank you for sharing! I did some quick Googling and found this BBC article that seems to back up what you're saying ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-39176110 ). I really do wonder why they wouldn't talk more abo

While this is definitely a personal opinion, my takeaway is that the image of terrorism that is commonly painted on the nightly news in the US is vastly different from what terrorism is in the rest of the world. Reading this article made me

I don't think there's any question as to whether or not mainstream media outlets across the Western world have been capitilizing on the "War on Terror" for decades, but one that has remained unanswered is how effective
