At least he's making something. We should foster an atmosphere of encouragement, even if the idea seems silly. Who knows what it could grow into one day? You might not have intended to be so mean-spirited. I know I've sounded that way in

One of the reasons Dropbox is successful is because anyone can use it. Even your mother. In fact, one of the reasons Drew was originally accepted into the YC program was because his sister was using it when he applied. "If I can look at

Surely that's less clear than "Swap( rev[i], rev[iLen - 1 - i] );"? And yes, the compiler would optimize out "iLen / 2", computing it once rather than every iteration.

Bug #1: char * rev = malloc(strlen(s)); ... It should be malloc( strlen(s) + 1 ) to include the NULL terminator. Nitpick #1: char tmp = *(rev+i); should be char tmp( rev[i] ); Nitpick #2: i<strlen(rev)/2 ; "

90th percentile? Maybe ~99th. The author has been developing software for 20 years. He is likely a fine applicant for a significant number of software dev positions, since he can learn and apply many different technologies very quickly,

In a way, 70,000 hours is a lot closer to the true number. (365 days) * (24 hours) * (12 years) = ~105k hours, or 70k waking hours It isn't until fifth or sixth grade that you can really start finding a passion. I'd say I managed to spend 5

K-12 isn't generally about learning . It is a daycare for children and young adults. (I am 23 now. I left school when I was 17 to pursue a career in the gamedev industry. Daycare was not the place for me, and I haven't regretted dropping o

Personally, I would write a game such as Quake. But I have about ten years experience with game dev, which is probably a special-case situation. (P.S. tasteful use of C++ features allows you to approach the productivity level of other langu

"You can't change the crawl rate for sites that are not at the root level—for example, www.example.com/folder." What if Googlebot starts at a non-root location (via a link from another site)? Will it always start at root?

What’s also interesting is that Notch does not want to run the business, at least not at the scale at which it is now. He hired people to do that for him. Do you think that might be a concern? I would very much love to see Notch continue
