Would it be better to take these kids back inside to teach them to code? Honest question. I've seen viewpoints for both more and less screen time vociferously defended on HN, see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12

I'm crushing it. The harder I work, the luckier I get. This is why the US has more billion dollar startups. This isn't my first rodeo. 25% more is nothing, try 50%. Eventually, work will set me free.

Like blended wing body configurations, propfan propulsion, "smart" materials with embedded sensors, this is an aerospace technology that has merit and has been studied for decades. It is not any closer to implementation in any com

It should probably be a scatter plot instead of a line chart, since interpolating values between points here is not meaningful. If there were 0 deaths in 1990 and 100 in 1992, that doesn't necessarily mean there were 50 in 1990. Maybe

Michelin critics are also trained to evaluate restaurants on specific Michelin criteria and to not just give their personal take on the food. So "good enough" is very specific here to what Michelin considers important.

I've been on vacation for a while (can't escape HN) and this discussion strikes me as uptight, granular, and overall a waste of time. Read the article however you want and get on with life.

You could use it for visualization. With the actual solution computation, you'd probably want to use numpy/scipy.

How does this affect online pricing? Assuming something bought online has the same price for all shipping locations, this would mean that people in expensive states are more likely to save money by shopping online?

Usually these "[art form or creator] isn't as good as it used to be" views come from finally noticing the repetition and formulaic structures that were always there. See /r/lewronggeneration. Your daughter could als

How about no. You're entering a field where professionals working full time struggle to beat the market, what's saying that you, a folder of 10-k's, and a copy of Ben Graham are going to beat them? You could probably spend a

I like David Chang but this is textbook hipster affectation. What distinguishes hipsterdom is the penchant for both high and low brow tastes. Drinking PBR and whatever microwbrew is popular in the locale that week. Nothing new or unique abo
