This is a common complaint, but I don't understand it. Most of my peers that didnt like it had no exposure to programming, though. I have tried to teach myself Ruby and Python before but I have never gotten really far. I am pretty compete

I doubt you are being productive. You have to isolate yourself from distractions (on a college campus this is most likely people). If you really are studying with perfect productivity, then you need to ask yourself if you are triaging your

two small things bug me about this. 1. Why is he buying a single can of red bull and a single bottle of water from 7-11 every day? Why not buy in bulk and keep at your house? 2. Is there really much advantages to drinking red bull before a

On a related note, I was playing around with going to Norway to get a Masters in statistics. Does anyone have any insight on whether this would be a good idea or bad one? I suspect i'd want to move back to the US afterwards. Would the de

I frequent Reddit and HN. Although I dont read /r/programming, I do subscribe to /r/economics, /r/business, /r/entrepreneurship and I can say that I am much more likely to read a full article on HN than anything I find on Reddit. It might

I really like this except: "I need to hear what others think before I form an opinion (If you have ever read a review of a new gadget before it launches: think about how ridiculous this activity is)" While I agree that I read too many produ
