This is probably good advice, and I think I'll give org-mode another try without trying to build it around someone else's setup. I've been using emacs for years, but could never quite make an habit out of org mode. I think deft handling sim

It's very frustrating knowing the police can do little to contain or manage the situation, and we're completely at the mercy of rioters as to what will happen next or when it will stop. A group of 30-40 of them went up my street, smashing c

Looks very nice, but doesn't take into account tube status. This is especially important on weekends where lots of closures occur due to engineering works. Hopefully it will soon, otherwise the TfL site is the still the best bet if you alre

I don't think so. Also, I predict the same sort of submissions will happen next year - and there will be a post just like this, and the comments to follow will have roughly the same set of opinions.. It's almost as if it all happened abou

I'm doing my MSc at potentially the same "top 3" uni in central London, after getting my undergraduate from a school much lower on the league tables. The biggest thing I've noticed, not considering any sort of academic rigor/quality differe

I'm an American in the UK, I'm not a fan of GBK. I much prefer Byron (small London chain), which I would consider a good burger by any standards.

I've heard these type of brain-teaser questions, not coding or algorithm questions, are still common in the finance sector, when hiring "quant" developers. Anyone know the extent of this?

I don't think this is his intention at all. You can't take HRO remotely seriously. This is simply the tone/style of his writing, read more of the blog - it's all just a joke/satire.

Just want to add that I much prefer "=/=" rather than "!=" when expressing an inequality.. I don't like the latter used in this context. I might totally wrong here, but I always something like "correlation != causation" as a test, not a sta
