Surely they'd interview and find out whether the paper lies in both cases (arrest record vs. inflated degree). An amazing asset to a company doesn't have to come from college. But it can.

Go to college. Seriously. It sounds like you're at least considering a field that pays well and it's not like computers/computerized tech will ever see a downswing any time in the foreseeable future. Going to college can some

Gotta' have a teaching certificate for most public school institutions. Private schools is less formally strict in that sense, but where I'm from they struggle to keep up with the public schools - thus they require teaching certif

Well, if they spent those four years at one place of work, then they're probably the college graduates' supervisor.

This is the largest "bitcoin days destroyed" since ever. It's also most likely Mt. Gox's bitcoins that are moving as well. This transaction can be traced back to an arbitrary transaction Mark Karpeles made to prove he st

I agree with what you're saying completely. Sometimes people like to think intellectual pursuits are only for the highly intellectual, instead of those that happen to be interested with a different mindset than those in the upper tax b

Cryptography is learnable by anybody. Maybe not practiced up to state-of-the-art standards by just anybody, but to say that's unreachable is bad form. I'm an art major turned software developer who has been reading about cryptogra

It makes me wonder how many people saw "Satoshi Nakamoto" and tried to talk to this guy before the reporter. Surely she wasn't the first. People have been wondering about the identity for years.

I usually only write unit tests for external open source libraries I am the author of, or ones for other libraries when I can think of a test case they aren't already checking for.

The funny thing is, we can only categorize intelligence to the peak and adjacent possibilities of where we're at now. Go back over 100,000 years or more and it would be very hard to categorize us as extremely intelligent beings.

So is there any way to verify either account, beyond nudging the benefit of the doubt in the company with higher journalistic integrity's favor (AP)?

Thanks, I only have slight reading knowledge of the subjects (mostly Wikipedia, then following the sources at the end of the page). I've never done DMT or Mescaline though they seem fairly similar in affect, but extremely different in

Maybe. I'm not convinced that when things are going well we should try to make things go badly just to "feel the downswing too." I think it more has to do with the fact that life can have ups and downs, they aren't easil

Both molecules are very similar and have been theorized to act very similarly in the way they affect neurotransmitters. However, as anyone who has experienced both will tell you, they are quantifiably and qualitatively different.

Exactly. A lot of people don't know that you can easily crack a .ipa binary and see things like method names and string constants with about 5 minutes of work. You can do the same with Android .apk files. Seriously, if you're doin

Only one I can think of is 32 bit architectures, but those are phasing out pretty fast. I wasn't being incendiary at all with my comment - just a general question from a novice software engineer.

So if one of us were to create something dealing with BTC we should just store the data as the smallest discrete amount (satoshis) and then run calculations on that to display info to the user?
