Of course tastes differ but I didn't see much that immediately grabbed my attention (a bit of a letdown because it was the first thing I clicked on this morning). I guess ultimately that's a good thing because my backlog is still

I feel like one step for fixing this would be a pledge by hiring committee members. Say the university of X thinks publisher Y is a burden on the scientific community and as such will ignore everything the applicants have published there (o

I'd say that you should be able to rifle through 200 responses and sort out the crap and shove them into a folder where they'll get some friendly auto response rather quickly. Even if you go a step further and tag the mails as &qu

Anecdotally the surprising answer might be rather old BeOS based systems. At least that's what I saw once and apparently some people still use some old tools that are BeOS only for audio (from talking to the DJ) :D

You could take over for the guy if you want to turn it into active income. Since he's retiring and made some good money off the cooperation with you he probably wouldn't mind setting you up with some clients and sharing some of hi

First project in a while where I feel my tax money is used well (my guess is the overall cost will end up being around 1.5 billion). The engineering simply makes my jaw drop...sick achievement, congratulations to everyone involved. Surprise

I have Bose noise cancelling headphones...possibly the best purchase I have ever made since they allow me to basically turn off the environment when on a train (or plane but I commute about 1h each way daily via train so that's where t

Since SciFi in relation to AR is mentioned I though a recent episode of Black Mirror I watched was pretty interesting ("Men Against Fire", S3E5). I won't spoil it but the general idea was pretty interesting/food for thou

That's interesting. 100% of the resumes I have sent have been PDF. I haven't even read a request for a Word document anywhere. Which country/domain are you talking about (for me it's tech jobs and academics in Germany).

It's interesting sure but I feel like a different method is needed. I think qualitative research would be more valuable at this stage. A large field study would be ideal. Embed researchers with VCs possibly also with startups who try t

Fascinating short interview. I wish they would have asked him what he thinks of theorem provers and if he maybe uses them in his workflow in some way.

I think the Pebble brand has decent value. It is positioned as the "first" smartwatch for a niche of users that you can build around. No idea how valuable exactly the brand is as figuring that out seems like witchcraft to me.

My dad (>60, not exactly tech saavy) has been using Lubuntu for 2 years now (actually I don't even remember when we installed it might be 4 years :P). For many parents who only surf the web and do some non power user office (he uses

Rather than working on the perfect landing I think a good enough landing would be sufficient (crash and get back into ready to jump posture). Mostly so that the scenario of back to back jumps can be tested (which would also be interesting f

The OP describes competition teardown and learning from what they do, essentially reverse engineering their processes and also applying things from other domains to your own domains. I think seeking patent protection for your own processes

Figuring out the process is a complex task. A complex task that (imo) is very likely to be solved better by some sort of AI approach than human tinkering. That's where I see software innovation in production. Having an efficient lab&#x

Very interesting read, especially since I had a production management focus at university that I've only partly used so far (when developing ERP software not when running my own company). """A good, defensible manufactur

Not much info in the video but they did train for 6 month to get their first good results. There also seem to be neuron combinations for race and eyes...that's pretty much it.

To be fair, Europe isn't much stabler imo. AFD in Germany in the 15-20% range, Le Pen might win in France etc.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the supposed quality difference of MBAs is mostly unrelated to tech startups.

Regarding salary. I think 45-50k Euro is a pretty decent entry level salary in Germany if you're coming out of university (debt free) depending on the region. That may look shocking compared to the SV numbers but you can live a good li

On the other hand, Daimler is pretty well established in autonomous driving (specifically trucks). I don't think any of the German car makers are incapable of providing a good electric car but I think Tesla is way ahead of all of them

I'm pretty sure what you study or should be studying is data structures and algorithms and their application in most cases (for programming interviews). I don't think it's bad at all and in fact I should study up on these top

Well this particular intern who wrote the post was found due to things he had build/done. So I'd say in this case it does matter. I'd also say that a Google offer means more than being able to play the recruiting game because

I'm pretty sure in Germany it'll pretty much be "this is illegal as it tracks data at the individual level". Especially since there is no need for this to enable the core service.
