Well, sort of, but then the moment you run into hazards [1], bad branch predictions [2] or any other problems, the CPU will either stall the pipeline a few cycles or just flush the whole thing, so it's not like it's a magic solution just wa

Yup, this is a crude piece just preaching to the choir, full of negativity and not worth reading for everyone else. "deep trouble" "irrelevant" "brilliant move" (sarcastically) "overhyped" "devastating" "widely disliked"

This is interesting given the article that appeared just yesterday on age bias in Silicon Valley [1]. I'd be inclined to think that the ageist mentality probably doesn't extend to the rest of the entrepreneurship world, although I have abso

The most surprising statistic on this infographic, IMO, is that Michelle Obama follows only 8 people, while Ann Romney follows 411. Not that I can extrapolate anything accurate from that, but mass-following really doesn't seem to have helpe

Indeed, before clicking the link I assumed it would be an op-ed covering climate change and rising sea levels, which then goes on to argue that in the future, flooded coastal cities would enlist gondolas (the waterborne kind) to replace bus

Just because everyone's already mentioned the easy (and probably best) answer of just selling stuff you don't need, let me add something a little different: Enter programming competitions, app hackathons, that sort of thing. The kind that a

I think it's a neat and creative idea, but I wonder about its long-term effectiveness as they get to know one another better. It's easy to be embarrassed when making mistakes in front of someone you don't know at all, because there still ex

To be fair, there certainly is a motive for him to lie, and that's exposure/fame/internet celebrity/etc. Not that I think that he lied, but let's be honest, he certainly got a lot of attention from the story...

I find the title to be a little misleading, given what he goes on to explain in his article: " Don’t get me wrong here, the class of 2012 CS grads are full of brains and talent, they’re just mixed in with more mediocre people than the class

Not only that, but more generally it seems to me that this "trust" system would cause a "bandwagon" effect on all posts. Other users would be afraid to downvote anything that was taking off, since they would knowingly be causing their own "
