   I've been working remotely for the last 7 months, and I find it awesome! The biggest downside for me is less socialization with coworkers. But what helps a lot, is that my team meets one week each quarter, which helps build/mainta

   Udacity has the absolute best online CS classes I've seen. My brother used Udacity to learn software development, and is now employed.

   This doesn't solve the problem of email encryption, but I made a (web-based) file encryption app with the goal of usability: https://hypervault.github.io/

   This looks great, I'll buy. +1 for Redux coverage (I'm sure it ridiculously difficult to keep any kind of React learning material up-to-date!)

    No (I don't agree with the poetry definition put forth), but programming is LIKE poetry is some ways. Here's one way: analogies in poetry are like libraries in programming; an analogy (like a library function call) can convey a mo

    I like that it sounds like "Mountain Dew", and think it will succeed for this reason.

    What information is lacking from the new reports? And do they provide all the raw data? If so, is it possible to do your own research based on that raw data? (I'm not arguing with you - I wish they would provide all the data possible).

    I just ate a full meal from McDonalds this week for the first time in a while, and realized that I ate around 1000 calories, and was still a little hungry. This was really surprising, since 500 calories of healthy food can make me feel full

    That really is uncanny. I had this feeling like there was actually a living person there in my computer.

    I think it keeps your mind from locking in on fake aspects of the faces, to make it look more real.

    I bet that the stagnation of the American lower class standard of living has come at the expense of the rising standard of living in 3rd world countries with which we deal.

    I have been really curious about getting first-class interactive spreadsheet functionality in Jupyter (possibly by building a widget). I think it would be the ideal analysis platform.

    When you see how little time physicians spend with patients, this is not a surprise. Additionally, new research is continually coming out, and the doctors are often not up-to-date on it. This is a huge problem called Translational Research.

    That's kind of like saying it's absurd to switch to a new social network because it is popular... as with social networks, languages/platforms are more useful when more people use and contribute to them. Good libraries cover
