I believe the course list has plenty that do match what the OP is looking for. For example there are several on real analysis, graduate-level optimization and other subjects like that. As well as much easier subjects. Don't know the

Isn't that exactly what an agi would say once it takes over the brains of leading scientists.

Very nice work. Will definitely play with your themes at some point.

Curious myself, and I found this: https://onlinecourses.nptel.ac.in/noc17_mg10/preview As someone into OR myself, I'd like to see if it will be formally given again.

Highly recommended for those looking to grasp discrete math at a deeper level: http://www3.cs.stonybrook.edu/~algorith/math-video/ Skiena goes through the amazing Concrete Mathematics book (which he didn't wr

I get sidetracked by learning new stuff, the mathier the better. Sounds like a humblebrag but it sucks to keep jumping into rabbitholes.

Very nice Jason. I know I'm always bugging you about Fieldbook APIs (this is Nate K again), but is there an api for creation here? I have a super-duper-cool use case in mind but it involves POSTing an in-memory CSV rather than manually

This is a great question. Not to highjack the topic, but I think it would be great to have a clear path for publishing novel (if credible) research in reputable journals. Could be a great hack for someone to enter a grad program for which

I once had an idea for a non-profit[1]. Started to fill out an application, got about 1/5 of the way through, abandoned it because I decided it wasn't something I'd commit to, and never submitted it.[2] Then about a month la

Congrats! I loved the elegance coffeescript & it was the language that convinced me JS was a reasonable target. Though I, like many, moved to TS, I use CS every day via its spiritual child es6.

That's great to hear, I'll follow up via email. Great product.

fieldbook.com seems to check a lot of your boxes. it has plenty of rough edges but has a solid relational model and is fun to use. my only complaint is that api access is really expensive (making it cost-prohibitive to most HN readers) but

I'd consider that a feature not a bug :).

I think some people might not like you crowding out hypertrack's show hn post. That said, I was looking for something very similar to talkjs and am going to try it out thanks to your post. So for me it was very useful and would like t

Something funny just happened. I clicked the link and the economist told me "you've reached your article limit". For a moment I thought that was the rebuttal.

Looks great. I'm in New York myself and could see trying your service with the wife. Working in the restaurant "niche" myself, and think this is a fun idea you got here. My one comment is that possibly your site should menti

Beautiful job. There might be some people posting "why didn't you just..." but I used this to show my kids their family tree and they really liked it. Freeloaded though, so you need a way to compell people to pay (say extra l

Fuck that's sad. Never knew him but from his app/site he definitely "made the world a better place". I don't know how many person-years he had on earth, but he helped people liberate many thousands of their own.

Agree with putting roundtrip on both. Always my biggest annoyance. Even though I always assume it's RT, I still need to keep that state in my brain. I'm a Kidwell too btw :).

Thanks for your work @mdo - excited for the beta. I think everyone I know is psyched for sass and cards (and all of the other goodies).

What strikes me about the Scala community is how amazingly anti-fragile it is. Odersky often uses criticism to refine future versions of the language. He is currently my favorite benevolent dictator.

Interesting article and a cautionary tale for moral relativists. Still hold to my initial impressions of him. That he was a big hearted fellow, a brilliant author, a doting father, and in his books/interviews very open about his sexua

I agree with everything you said. Not sure exactly where to place someone like him in these categories. I still doubt he was an actual molester, but I will say that support of nambla is a bit odd. That said I always give the benefit of th

I didn't to either. After a quick googling I see some pro-nambla weirdnesses with him. Don't see anything looking like victims coming forward so I'd give him the benefit of the doubt. I think... But I only had good experie
