Is there any indication we will? I really hope so! I enjoyed the AJE content and thought AJA was pretty terrible. It really sucked that they cut off people in the USA from watching AJE everywhere.

seems like you can't actually chat with people directly. You can ping them with an emoji but i think all interaction is just like you posting stuff to your timeline or whatever they call it

I like this technique, only thing I'll really disagree with is the usage of videos. I really hate videos as a medium for learning computer-related stuff. Just write down your explanation, maybe throw some images or gists in there, so

Came here to complain about this so I upvoted you instead. It would be great, too, if their search could actually show posts.. My usual go-to when I'm trying to find something again is to go to the person's profile, but sometimes

Ah one of our core systems is in C++, though it is for video processing and needs to work with multiple platforms. I suppose nobody has questioned the C++ choice because its a more "typical" use-case

I think that the difficulty immigrating to the United States is a relatively recent development (post-9/11). Lines for green cards have become very long for a lot of people and for some there isn't an option to get a green card (

The insanity and hypocracy in the American immigration system is infurating and will lead to fewer immigrants in the future. With the way the H1B system works it is extremely impractical to hire foreign workers who may be more qualified tha

I'm not really involved in web development much, my comment was more general though. It's surprising the number of people in an environment where threading is a real option that don't really understand it very well.

I honestly really hate it when "concurrency is hard" is trotted out as a reason for not using it when using it would very obviously make life better for the end-user. Is it as straightforward as non-concurrent code? No, obviously

Similar story here, when I was a dev in Toronto I was probably pretty close to the most poorly paid among my group of friends (who are for the most part not programmers) and after moving to California I am the best paid now of my friends ba

How is this different from VCs who focus on seed stage? There are a number of such funds out there and some have been very very successful, I don't understand this "Micro VCs are coming" thing if the definition is really jus

This thread is killing me. I have worked on a whole bunch of shit that has little to no documentation (SO included) in my career. I have had to figure out a lot of stuff on my own. SO is amazing when it has information that I'm look

Disclaimer: I don't know anything about this stuff. Would they be able to run these MCMC chains in a way that perhaps progressively renders results at greater and greater accuracy? Then they could get some initial "low resolution
