That's ridiculous. Essays are already being shoe-horned into the 3-paragraph/introduction/conclusion format and (I believe) it's quite harmful to budding writers. An automated system of marking will mean two things: 1. Students will write

Mixergy has a very... fluffy feel as a website. It reads like it's going to sell you a PDF document that will change your life in 5 quick steps. But once you get into the actual interviews there is real substance. Andrew is an excellent i

I remember when I first started to learn C in university - we had a (relatively) large project due and I had yet to start. I convinced myself to program for something like 30 hours straight. It seems to be a bit of a badge to pull all nigh

That seems strange to me, though. Isn't Iran bound by the UN Covenant on Civil and Political Rights?

There's plenty of expert knowledge within each domain, though. It seems that simply being a fresh pair of eyes has an acute effect on success. Hamming suggested it, "You need to get into a new field to get new viewpoints, and /before/ you

Why does transferring knowledge across domains have such exponential returns? Is it only because the time it takes other fields to adapt to new methodology is longer - or are there other factors? EDIT: Holy crap, I worded this terribly. Rew

But in an earlier article you do admit that it is quite risky: "To put it in a different perspective: as a startup founder, you are making a very risky and non-diversified investment." You're essentially gambling your time. That's what coa
