   After Intel, the next contender for AMD is nVidia. I guess it's much harder to beat; but I guess GPUs in servers will be like SSDs.

   A good way to prove yourself are hackatons and programming contests. Why? because you have a clear deadline not set by you. Hope this helps

   Please be reasonable. Having NSA and several US agencies as customers doesn't mean you are a tentacle of the NSA. Even in the case of companies owned in part by In-Q-Tel I guess the point is to make their technology available to the US

   There are "self-driving-lawyers" for niches like this one: https://www.forbes.com/sites/parmyolson/2016/06/28/this-teen... I bet the bank is offloading to "the system" the niche

   Totally aggre on that. But there will be a fix soon. Why? you cannot waste 2-3 days setting up your dev computer just to print hello (again) world.

   I would like to see what's behind the hood. Since JPM is a bank I guess they used SAP HANA using the text analysis services... but I would like to know a bit more about the project. Any pointers?

   I guess the RAD market vanished with Rails and its competitors. Back in 1998 - suddenly - it was possible to develop quickly a web application with a CRUD web scaffold behind to start feeding data. The problem we have now we is the need to

   They should . When a sound competitor enters into your market, you must do whatever it means (legally of course) to close the doors of the market. In the case of Intel, they've been enjoying almost no competition in the PC market

   For me the best part of R is documentation. Using Python for data will help you learn something that can be used for more... but be warned that Dataframes on stuff like Spark don't work with list comprehensions (my favorite Python feat

    Does anyone know which percentage of all electronics sales go to Amazon? Affiliate programs are a good way to get market quotas. If they're #1 in sales, then there's no need to spend marketing bucks on it.

    At Voyager-I speed (17km/s) we need just 688k years to get there. Not bad considering the humble satelite doesn't accelerate anymore.

    Not an expert, but I spent a lot of time looking at spanish 17th century notary books ;-) I guess handwriting in pre-press texts (incunables) is "designed" to be easy to copy. If you look at the textura (gothic) script it is based

    If you can provide the sound files, something like Asterisk + PHPivr[1] could work for you. Problem: It's quite old (2010). If you need text-to-speech thats could be a problem. Text-to-speech needs good software. Maybe you can call M

    There is a chart in Piketty's book, Capital in the 21st century, a that shows GDP PER CAPITA for several countries, including the US. I guess US companies pay well because their share of the global GDP is higher (although it is decrea

    Dockable Phone to PC: I agree there is market there. I was on a project about this some time ago and the limiting factor was all the cable mess that cluttered your desk. Women loved the product because it meant _far_less_ weight on their pu

    I saw this in Munich airport some weeks ago: http://www.napcabs.com They're also expensive (10-15€ hour), but I guess for a long lease (weeks) the price could be better (around the 20-30€ day in Osaka/Tokyo) because t

    I guess that's the reason a lot of companies work in the UK. I remember a lot of recruiters doing business from there because looks like it's easy to start. Probably after brexit this will be still a competitive advantage of th

    I really love this quote: "only available in German, but don’t worry most Germans don’t understand it either, because it contains a million juristic and fiscal terms". I guess this applies to any human language ;-)

    Looks like they are budgeting / sending an offer and having a $22/hr labor cost is an advantage. Dont' tell them lies unless you have to. Just say thanks for counting with me or something similar; but _keep_ looking just beca

    I don't know a word about LUA; but looks like you wrote the mib implementation _by_ hand. I mean, without a mib compiler that does all the diry work giving you a skeleton where you can build the logic. Is it true? Anyway, it is really

    Sublime is great for hacking your way through a CSV file very quickly. I write in Sublime at least 20% of my formulas and then paste it into Tableau and Talend. Easier (even without autocompletion) than working in a small window/pane t

    Scott McCloud (the comics artist) says something very interesting about that: The more realistic the character drawings are, they less _you_ project yourself into the story. If this works for a static medium like comics, it could be much mo
