We're talking about ACM style search problems that are used for interviews, and not about iterating over an array recursively. For these, the recursive formulation is the naive and inefficient way of solving them.

Divide an conquer type algorithms usually lend themselves to naive recursive solutions more often than not. DP usually requires you to find that solution and find some clever relationships that allow you to build up the final solution from

He memorizes convincing technobabble. That's part of his act. It's no different than a con-man memorizing scripture to scam people. He might know about how to pimp-out a livejournal page, but that's about it.

For every 'real' data science job which requires deep knowledge of statistics and machine learning, there are 50 DBA positions where they want you to know some python.

He doesn't have enough technical skill to pull off anything. The AT&T hack, a for loop in php, was beyond his technical ability and had to get someone else to do it. Blogging about being a bad boy and pretending to be master of ano

From my personal experience, an engineering degree is the fastest path from the underclass to solid middle-upper class. Dissuading those kids from going to college is not a good idea if you care about social mobility.

That's how it usually goes with a side channel used to discuss another communications channel. E.g., "Can you believe this trash got on the front page!" everyone proceeds to downvote or "hey my show hn is up!" every

Nice idea, but I have a feeling that 'Hangout' will turn into 'brigade things we like/don't like' aka Reddit.

Well, if this sort of system is going to be the future of finance, isn't the environmental impact of it something we should consider? Especially, when we hear about old inefficient power pants coming back on-line to fulfill the new dem

Being able to remote 100% of the time is not as common as people want to think here. A lot of managers aren't comfortable with that notion, and basically ignore you when you make the case that a position is essentially impossible to fi

Because python was the cool thing a few years ago, and it managed to get traction in a lot of places because it was pretty easy and included a lot of tools. It's also taught as an intro language now. So now you have to deal with people

It's more like he's preventing bikeshedding by stopping them from making irrelevant non-technical decisions.

These are self-reported numbers mostly from novices on the Internet. I can assure you these do not represent consistent and specific training for this lift. A 315lb deadlift is obtainable within a month.

For an average male, that should be obtainable in about 6 months to a year.

His argument is that it's inherently hard to do exercise science research because of selection biases and sample sizes. This is a fairly reasonable statement. The problem is confounded because of conflicts of interest. Either the inves

Seems like a lot of these are covered by Thunderbird plug-ins with the added advantage of having a native application.

Would be nice to see a feature comparison with Thunderbird. What exactly can this do that Thunderbird can't?
