For those interested in sports analytics, specifically NFL, but really any sport feel free to email me. Contact info in my user profile. I'm working on an interesting project in this space and would love to talk to more data-oriented sport

Apologies for the tangent, but are there any HN users who are interested in sports analytics?

Plus I think you would be inundated with a bunch of unique one-off problems that while technically could be solved/improved via a tech solution, lacks the footprint to make it worth anyone's time.

I don't agree with your assertion that China is this manipulative siren and the googles and microsofts of this world are naive innocent suitors. For all the talk of corruption, censorship, and privacy, the Chinese government is surprisingly

The rate of change will obviously be grater from 1988-1998 than from 2000-2010 because prior to 1988 China was a completely closed society (especially prior to 1978) and just beginning to wake up from the cultural revolution, a highly chaot

Fair. That said, my points still stands. I used the 90s for contrast purposes. The changes in China over the past 20 years are PROFOUND. Over the past 10 years they are only slightly diminished but no less amazing. I've been traveling to

By this logic, why do business in a plethora of other questionable countries? Russia, Saudi Arabia, etc.

1.3 billion people. All strains in China derive from that parent strain. Not sure you can really pin that blame on the CCP although certainly Mao's lets-all-have-babies ideas would account for some of it.

Who do you think will lead this revolution? Students at the elite schools in China care about getting jobs with foreign multinationals, not democratic reform...

huh? No real change over the last 10 years? As a rule I try to shy away inflammatory criticism, but this was a very poorly researched post. There has been TREMENDOUS change over the past 10 years! You have to remember that until Deng's re

Absolutely. At the very least this guy will help you read between the lines and act as a good gut-check to your interview experience. I would reiterate what Tom_B said about greater responsibility but I think it should be noted the kind of

True but most foreigners view the H1B as the first step to getting a green card - something highly highly desirable among the scores of white collar foreigners working in the US. From my experiences, I know quite a few who after getting the

Not sure if you can really bucket this under "theoretical research." Theoretical research is at least grounded in logic and paper rationale. This case seems like a mix of equal parts ponzi scheme showmanship, conspiracy theory, and tech-

Some? Try most. People fear the unknown and sadly the world of technology and computers are still very much a black box for the vast majority of people on earth. My dad, ivy educated phd, still thinks that coding is like the movie hackers.

Do you make many international calls when on the go? I can see this being useful if you don't currently have a cell phone. If you did, outside of cheaper international calls, it seems really redundant. Plus if you ever traveled outside the

Sorry missed this reply. For those still interested. The key to keeping down costs is to buy in bulk, something I realize is not feasible to all people because it requires frontloading much of the cost. Scale according to what you can af

This reminds me of an experiment I did in college to see how small of a food budget I could go on while still maintaining three healthy (and delicious) meals per day. I think I got it down to under $2/meal with a carb, protein, and veggie/f
