Thanks. I was kind of planning on saying something like that, but thought someone with more experience (either from my side or the manager's) might have a better suggestion. Oh well, I guess it's a good problem to have.

If we can design regular logic in neurons, we can (eventually?) do some of the fancy neural nets Well, yes , if you can make logic gates out of neurons you could eventually implement a neural network with actual neurons, but it would be

The national anthem is sacred, but that doesn't mean I can't resent its being co-opted to advocate certain political positions.

Sorry for the much-delayed reply. It's certainly nowhere near Atlas Shrugged in terms of quality, and there's a heavy US Republican undertone. I'm a moderate that leans slightly towards the right and it bothered me a few times. So if you

I agree that grading has nothing to do with teaching people how to think, but that doesn't mean it's not useful. As a student, I would hate not to get feedback on my performance. Also, I've definitely gone over and above on assignments wh

Not sure about MIT and Harvard, but for Stanford CS courses, if you go to csXXX.stanford.edu you'll typically get the class page, including slides, problem sets, programming assignments etc. Ex. http://cs221.stanford.edu . Obviously, I ag

I initially upvoted you because I agree with your comment itself, but on reflection, this is the kind of response I'd expect from...other online news communities. Picking out one relatively irrelevant line from an article because it touche

This is true. However, there is a difference between, "I'd like to spend more time with my family," which is, as you say, kind of a generic excuse, and, "I want to rebuild my relationship with my estranged wife," which is a lot more person

HN is better than reddit because it doesn't have politics, plain and simple. Let's please keep it that way.

Agreed 110%. I prefer HN to reddit because it has interesting tech articles without the politics. I would hate to see that change.

Agreed. I'm a TA for a CS course here and we have open office hours where the students can come and do their homework and ask questions as they come up, which I can then answer on the board (I'm not going to say if it's black or white so a

I can second this. I go to one of the top CS schools in the country and people here are, in general, very cool. I didn't have the same experience as an undergrad, despite the fact that I still went to a pretty good school. If you can get

I know what you mean - I felt the same way after reading Age of Tolerance (similar to Atlas Shrugged but specific to contemporary American political issues) and then saw people singing the national anthem in Spanish, but with the words poli
