Honest question: how would you measure an L2 cache lookup? (What program would I need to write which ensures that a value is stored in L2, such that when I read it later, I would know the lookup time to indeed be the L2 time?) At that, how

Question: say you use a hash which returns a 32-bit integer. If you were actually implementing a hash table, would you need to declare a structure with 2^32 elements? `int buckets[2^32]`? This seems unwieldy! Would an actual hash table only

This is truly excellent! As we are finding with photographs, there is still a desire for people to have physical analog manifestations of things they look at and read. There is a quality (not so hash on the eyes) and convenience (no batteri

Would you mind elaborating on some of the useful features you like about uwsgi? Or why becoming dependent on it is (presumably) not-ideal?

This is completely an aside, but I thought the design of this is truly gorgeous. Particularly using color and metaphor to YC without stating the name (scroll down). More on-topic, I very much like and appreciate the growing peer-pressure to

1. I'm not sure how startups' focus on iPod apps is related to race and ethnicity. Probably because it isn't, but hey, you were on a rant so okay. 2. Indian people in the United States do not identify themselves as "dot Indians". Perhaps it

I realize (presume?) that what you are saying is meant to be a bit of hyperbole, but most of us are not (yet!) so well-connected that a decision-maker would offer a job without this kind of screening process.

Agreed. A nice "bookmark" feature. I think a book would be a great affordance for bookmark but that seems to be taken already by "new repository"

Super cool! A few thoughts, in addition to everyone else's: 1. When I try to preview the HTML, I get a 500 error! ("We're sorry, but something went wrong") 2. Possibly do a better job telling us which fields are required. For example, I had

I talked to my insurance company; insurance is more than 3x what it was in NC. Ditch the car. And yeah, it is fairly easy (and fun!) to pick up inexpensive furniture here. And, of course, the size of bed (desk/chair/sofa/etc) will depend on

Lots of people decide to just pick up and move to NY, but I myself wanted to have a job in hand first. Maybe it isn't true in tech, but I know lots of folks who "just moved to NY," worked at a restaurant for a couple of years, and ended up

I disagree with the notion that there is a huge gap. I originally learned to program via QBasic in 21 days. DOS in 21 days. VB 6 in 21 days. ASP in 21 days. Borland C++ in 21 days. HTML 5 in 21 days. PHP+MySQL in 21 days. Because that's wha

Good point on making separate commits for "whitespace" versus "content" We currently have pep8 (python style checker) as a git commit hook, and the first few times we used it, we'd have 10 lines of legitimately modified code and then 100 li

Way cool. Going to try using this as my default search engine for a while. I really really like the "alternative to" feature. What could I do to help you get better at alternatives which are not as popular? (eg, "alternative to cheetahmail"

Haha, I am all for people squeezing out from under The Man and creating their own software. I read Commandment 4 ("Don't rewrite code without consultation") differently. My opinion is that if you are working on a team with developers, you h

Interestingly, you have compared apples and oranges: "lawyers" and "good developers" (as opposed to "good lawyers".) What I mean to say is - and, of course, this is all unsubstantiated - there are plenty of coders and lawyers to go around,

It is interesting that all of us are getting a different takeaway from this list; something different resonates with different people. It also surprises me that these lessons originated in 1971 (though I had not heard of this text until jus

One technology development which makes this increasingly relevant are the prevalence of Arduino (Raspberry Pi, etc) - embedded platforms that take care of a lot of the hardware heavy lifting for you. But there is a gap between what the Ardu
