The trigger is just grounding the two inner data pins together. This is ok since the data pins are loose pull up so even if the device tries to send data on something with those shorted no damage will occur.

I tried watching his lectures as an undergrad and found them a bit confusing. I can follow them now but still find them to be all over the place. I always learn better from reading so hopefully these will work out better.

My feeling is we should put the burden on the Colleges or the Loan providers. Make it so if the student fails to graduate, or graduate and cannot get a job in their field they're forced to pay the loan or at least the loan interest. Th

Yup, http://www.kivasystems.com In some test warehouses, outside of the service technician, the person loading the shelf, and the person loading the truck there are essentially no employees.

I think some of this can be solved with apprenticeships like some manufacturers are doing in the US. Were they need skilled labor to preform mechanical tasks automation is not able to do yet. Though the number of these jobs is not going to

I did some side work that applied to work. Something that interested me, but on my own free time. I've moved on to other hobby projects, but now those side projects have become a big deal at work. Now I'm getting assigned my usual work plus

I focus on myself first thing in the morning. Gym then Code then Work. I found it calmed me down and since things always run late and never early its mostly working out. Any push back I got I told them they would need to pay for my non-exis

Agree, that always bothers me, hand waving under the guise that it's too complicated to be understood. It may take some time but it can always at minimum be on a high level understood. If it can't then someone is lying or hiding something.

Completely agree, been doing the same for last 3 years using a combination of machine learning techniques which without some human input are only at best as successful as putting money into a savings account, or in most cases would loose mo

It all depends but I've learned to look at http://www.glassdoor.com its not 100% accurate but gives you a rough idea of whats going on. It's how I figured out I'm underpaid (I'd care more if the job was stressful but it's not...)

I wish this were the case more. I graduated with and electrical engineering degree, but over the years I've spent the bulk of my time coding up DB, big data stats, ML, etc. to help me do my job. Trying to explain I'm more than capable while

Working on it :-) to be posted on github. I'm about done into a re-write in perl (I just like that lang, don't just judge me :-P) that threads it out to all cores and cuts the memory usage in half for data large sets.

Just adding this, for learning purposes, libsvm works just fine, but for most real problems I've run into I've had to hand code my own SVM libs. All open source solutions I've run into use libsvm or some derivation there of which does not s

Agree: I had a dataset for work no one had yet been able to use in categorizing two effects (one category was 98% of all the data). The values looked too "Gaussian normal" with everything mixed up. It couldn't be separated out, but a combin

This is nice, so is libsvm, and a few other comercial products I've used (JMP), but having some fairly non-trivial data sets for work, I've found myself implementing most of these by hand to get out the results I want. I'm not in an interne

I used to work part time as IT support for a public school system back in College(07), and it shocked me to see every single student in a 6th grade class pull out TI-89s or better! to handle logs and exponentials. I'm not talking about solv

Short answer yes. Thats how transistors work in general, but the problem is you get small enough and its like the transistors want to turn them-selfs on, luckily the smaller you go the more leakage you get into other areas of the chip so th

No, that limit has been hit by the physical structure of Silicon itself. The perf has to do with more transistors per square area, thus you could fit more "cores" into a single chip or for example, it takes me 2mil transistors to make a 5 c

No this design was developed back when I was in college, the revolutionary change here is that Intel has a process to actually manufacture these things effectively and get decent yield. IBM had these things built in test cases back in 2007
