   What's the problem in believing that most of the people that end up being bankers would love to work at GS and that hence GS can just pick up the best ones?

   Correct me if I am wrong, but is seems like you can now compile and run Hello World on Ubuntu without needing a Windows PC (which I remember was needed at some step before)?

    Thanks for the clarification. I am sorry I had got your comment in the wrong way. I am not that familiar with ggplot myself, but I'll give it a go as soon as I'll have the chance.

    I see your point now, thanks for the explanation. I mostly do scientific calculations, so effectively manipulations of array of doubles, and I currently mostly use C#. I was under the impression that the performance is similar to C++ (GPU a

    Would you have any reference regarding the performance of java/c++ with respect to manipulation of arrays of doubles? Just curious to know where that 20% comes from.

    If he keeps the current position for 2 years or for 4 years, does it change dramatically the view you would have of his CV? I guess staying there for 10 years would have a sensible impact on how the resume would look like, I'm just try

    These are books I would have liked to have when I studied Mechanics. Just a couple of very nice point spotted on chapter 1 of Introduction to Classical Mechanic: the dimensional analysis example and the linearization of ODEs are worth the r
