I wouldn’t say the RTS genre has been destroyed per se. We have Stelaris for example and Hearts of Iron 4 some time ago. There is also RimWorld and Wargame. Banished, comes to mind. Oh and of course They Are Billions, great game combining S

EB-5 has nothing to do with founding and working at a different business. USCIS allows applicants to invest into EB-5 Regional Centers, which are essentially funds that would not require you to work there or start any new business. If an in

I don't know. If you're paying 20x what a civil engineer gets then you might as well go with E5 Investor Visas. Its true that auctions have issues, but we could go with (for example) second price (aka Vickrey) auctions for salarie

Arguably, the salary (and price in general) is measure of marginal utility. Hence if one job pays 140, 000 over 70, 000 we can argue that the one that pays more provides more marginal utility to society. That is, the United States as a wh

The supply / demand in the economy is specifically determined by the salary. If the demand grows high enough so that salaries go up, then you can obviously compete with other highly paid professionals. There is no reason Tata and Infos

It actually is true thought, that some supermassive blackholes have a density thats pretty close to that of water, and their event horizons are very very gentle.

>No, the 15 minute turn around time is not important given the dataset we have at the moment, but showing that it was possible to do was considered important from a science perspective, because of the upcoming LSST telescope. LSST will g

If you're hiding everything behind a server, couldn't you just use WebSockets? I thought the whole appeal of WebRTC is the whole peer to peer setup.

Thanks for you input. But I am aware of the breakdown of the compensation packages and I stand behind my statement having just accepted a new grad role at FAANG. 70-80k RSUs are on the lower end. For example standard Facebook offers are 140

Yes and no. For a new grad its still not hard to get an initial job offer in the excess of 200k TC in the Bay. If you're a DINK that's 400k. There are simply no jobs that a fresh grad can get paid that much in Canada. And thats no

Pretty common question to ask from hiring managers. It shows passion. Passion is a way better predictor of your work quality and commitment than asking ICPC whiteboard questions.

I thought that CPU’s with AES-NI can already keep up. EDIT: in fact I just looked up some benchmarks for Ryzen and it can do 3GB/s per core. So that should be enough

Well except its not as simple as that, is it. There are a lot of second and third tier Tech companies in SV (not considering startups even) that can't raise salaries as quickly -- or at all. Also then there is the question of simultane

The whole idea of speeding is bullshit. The germans have the autobahn, and as far as I know nobody really complains about the lack of a speed limit, nor people going over 120 miles an hour.

I was rather disappointed that this article wasn’t about the worlds first guided missile, that was used to hunt ships in the pacific in WW2 — it was called the Bat. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASM-N-2_Bat

I had a similar setup about a year back. Running a Ubuntu Host with KVM, passing through an NVIDIA 970 to a Windows host. Yea...the GPU performance was fast, but everything else was so slow compared to running native. I think my biggest iss

For those interested: nowadays Linux has support for what is called the EFI Stub boot, which allows the kernel to be booted directly by UEFI. So in a sense steps 1-3 are rolled into the kernel, and the kernel acts as its own boot loader.
