   Well you have a lot of people chipping in for Uber to be valued at $41G. While that doesn't tell us much about each actor's rationality, it does indicates that some people think there's value in the company's future. I c

   Indeed but if you want a pretty good estimate you can just whatever mixing factor is most common in China or the US and convert :)

   Well it really depends on your situation but I guess the main question to ask is: Do you possess the necessary background to read the paper? It takes a lot of groundwork before you can read a paper and be confident you understood the gist o

   I don't think it's a given that someone with excellent grades in high school/college could become a good doctor, even with training. The same goes for a programmer.

   Incidentally I reserved two tickets yesterday after finding the best prices with Google Flights. It linked me directly to the airline's reservation system a couple of clicks away from confirmation. BTW, I used their map to find the mos

    > Launching a service now without thinking about scaling is an amateur move. I don't think they were shooting for the stars with Magic. It seemed a hack from day one. My impression is they didn't intend it to grow as it did.

    Some days I have to get early, some don't. If I have to be in class "early", say 9:30, here's the routine: Stop alarms at 8:20,25,30 Get up at 8:30 Jump in the shower for ~10 mins Eat (if there is some breakfast to eat)

    Some people must have reported bugs since 2013. If not, then either it's unused or bug free?

    Purely anecdotal and IMO a bit disingenuous. Most McGill students are not from Québec for starters. I could comb through the requirements set by the government concerning secondary education and easily find many supposedly acquired skills

    I don't understand why one would use a single web browser for everything. I don't have any evidence to prove its effectiveness, but the following combination has been pretty good for me and I've used it for years: Firefox wit

    Au contraire, I think the jerky movement was an excellent contrast to the beauty of the scene. If the movement was too smooth, how could you tell between UE4 and some CGI applied to a video of a real appartment? I couldn't by just watc

    I would have gladly paid the price of a movie ticket (something like $12 where I'm from) to watch the movie online. Sadly, $30 to be shipped a DVD is quite unappealing. http://www.zalafilms.com/films/cfiflyer.pdf

    I'm pretty sure he meant malware. What's the difference between a software engineer writing malware to the specifications set by an employer (whoever that might be) and the mechanical engineer shown in the clip? For example, a req

    Yes, and I should have mentioned it. The fun thing about XCP is that I can use it now, unlike Ethereum.

    Bitcoin does not solve this issue, a blockchain does. That's what the guys at Ethereum for example are trying to achieve: vanilla blockchain, build anything on top.
