I'm not saying it isn't possible. I'd be interested in seeing how your numbers compare. They have ~2M daily users and 47M installs, generating 600M monthly impressions. That lines up pretty well with my estimate of about $1 CPM.

I'm not a marketing expert, so correct me if I'm wrong here ... Let's assume an iphone app gets CPM of about $1 [1,2] So if their first app grossed $100k, that means about 100M impressions. That sounds insanely high to me - 100 impressions

and to be fair, you do need more at bats. Finding a job takes work - even if you're the perfect match and do a perfect job of presenting your skills, it's not guaranteed that a potential employer make the right decision.

From your description, your ideal position is with a medium-to-large sized b2b company, that has high-value paying customers to whom you can either sell or provide post-sales support. Consumer internet startups are more interested in: -

Was that supposed to be sarcasm? If so, slightly too subtle. If not, wow.

Right - my point was that they were expecting the naive approach, starting from human heuristics and building up. They were confused when I took a more disciplined approach and provided a solution that is robust to simple CP methods.

Nothing really clever though - he only applies the two most basic sudoku strategies: If a square has only one possible value, eliminate it from the square's peers. If a unit has only one possible place for a value, then put the valu

It just appears that way because he processes the apologies in bulk when he has time. Apparently he recently worked through a little backlog of apologies, but if you scroll down you'll a longer streak of non-apologies.

I had a similar experience, asked to design a sudoku solver. Coming from an AI background, I coded up an algorithm for state-space search. They were expecting me to approach it as a person would, reasoning about how you rule out certain num

Feynman or not, it's entertaining to anyone who has waded through several hours of contrived interview questions that supposedly relate to programming ability, and that always have a "right" answer.

That helps if you don't have numbers, but I'm getting the padding left of my line numbers. Is there a way to swap the foldcolumn to the left of line numbers?

I doubt anyone that who unknowingly transmitted stuxnet expected that the system would be infected. I also don't understand why people even use USB drives given that cloud storage is so cheap and accessible. Throw the files on dropbox, grab

It's also common to remap ii to exit insert mode, that way "i" puts you in, "ii" takes you out. Personally, I remapped caps lock to esc, because I don't like the way the editor lags when typing an "i" after "ii" has been remapped, but Caps-

It may be macvim specific, vim doesn't look as bad. I can distinguish text from line numbers, but it bugs me that they touch. I posted to superuser with an image to give you an idea of what I'm talking about: http://superuser.com/question

meh. Why does a metric ranked by individual customer visits have dollars as the unit? The data has inherent selection bias in including only credit card transactions, which would almost certainly affect the choice of "most popular".
