Bash. As an intermediate programmer, I learned it too late. Scripts were always magic to me since I was used to compiled languages. Especially useful for certain build tools and manual steps programmers are running from the command line. Pe

I used this same technique to apply for an early interview for the U.S. CBP's Global Entry program. Someone already open-sourced the tool, then I set up a cron job to run it: https://github.com/davidofwatkins/ge-ca

Good resources already posted, but this is also worth reading as an intro to thinking about income + costs of living as it pertains to early retirement: http://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2012/01/13/the-shockingly

(Not to imply that it's a bad service - just meaning that the CAC is a lot higher for Blue Apron than an iOS app - they have fewer, but more valuable, customers.)

Pretty incredible how well they've done on both the rock (and pop, indie-rock) front and electronic. I can't think of another "pop" label who's also putting out great (often underground) electronic records as consis

FWIW theSkimm isn't outright spam - they're a fairly popular super-short newsletter that I think does a mix of world news and lifestyle / culture stuff, apparently marketed at women. I subscribe to Finimize (financial news) a

Plus all the initial marketing costs to get those people to sign up in the first place. Which, for an expensive service like this, where very few people are interested, seem significant.

That's fair, but I think "solutions" contains the features your company needs to be successful. That's how I interpreted the quote - customers don't want to see a massive feature list, they want to see how you solve

At some point, you need to decide what you're going to ask something to build in an interview. It's probably been implemented before. Yes, reversing an array is arguably lower level than an application engineer needs to go - but n

I don't see why you'd need a dataset of 8k images in order to upsample 4k to 8k, as long as there are 4k images of that object from at least twice as close as you're shooting from. (Actually I think twice as close might be 16

You should be able to get the code coverage you need (even if 100%) by testing the public API of any class. If this isn't true, it means you have some private methods you can delete. That's how the unit you're testing is used

It looks like the error on that page is asking you to create an API account and authenticate. So maybe not an error in the API itself, but an oversight in documentation?

I disagree - in both situations, they gave you something for one purpose, and you used it for a different purpose that they didn't consent to. They didn't give you their info so that you could sell it.

How would you apply that thought if a friend gave you their credit card and asked you to buy something for them? What about if you ran an online store that held credit card numbers, or any other sensitive data?

As an aside, "7,00,000" is common to see in India. 1,00,000 (100,000) is 1 lakh. So 700,000 is said as "seven lakh" and written as 7,00,000. If you go even higher, 10,000,000 is written as "10,00,00,000" and ca
