I'm curious--have you tried replacing some of your meals with Ensure? Edit: I'm not suggesting that Ensure and soylent are identical, but there is a lot of overlap, and in this case it appears to satisfy a lot of the requirements

I'm another PIA user, and for the price, it's been great for me. One of the founders sometimes comments on HN, which to me is another good sign.

I think you have never been laid off. I know a few H1-B visa holders who were and I cannot imagine the stress they went through. Fortunately they all found jobs in time, although when you've got a time limit, you end up making some co

This is pretty simplistic, but I still think it's true: plenty of times in history, when the ruling class got too powerful, there was a revolt. But when the ruling class has a unsympathetic perfectly controlled drone army, I think revo

It's been really frustrating, because it sometimes tells you what you want, but not always, and it's often pretty stupid. "Oh, you're three minutes from home at the local starbucks that you go to every day? Here'

There's a mini-mall near my house where I often eat lunch. Tucked in a corner is a newstand that usually has free local real estate listing magazines. Last time I was there, I noticed a new free magazine in the rack: http:/&#x2F

Almost all DRAM has some amount of address scrambling--logically adjacent cells are not physically adjacent. It can get quite complicated. Here's a PDF that describes some of the why and how: http://ce-publications.et.tude

This comment had an interesting score trajectory. It's a quote from the movie "Pi", which has a protagonist who goes mad trying to find order in randomness. Which is kind of the point of the linked story, too. The comment we

At my previous company, I liked their ranking system. Basically, you moved up as you became responsible for larger and larger systems. A brand new junior employee is responsible for very little--most of what they do is going to be reviewed

Checking a steak (or most foods) for doneness is something it can't do, though--it can't see inside food. (You could get an "instant read" probe thermometer, like the Thermapen, but I did not recommend this because I

I remember watching a game around 15 years ago, Go professional (I forget who) vs a highly-ranked computer program. The computer got a 27 stone handicap, and the pro still won by more than 361 stones. Both of those numbers are crazy. The f

Have you conducted interviews yourself? It is harder than it seems. There are a lot of nervous and shy people. Easing them into the process with an 'icebreaker' question gives them a chance to open up for the real questions.
