I've had really high quality support from GCP and a nice human touch when I accidentally ran up a $10,000 TPU bill on my own personal project. I emailed them, saying I don't actually have that kind of money, and they not only wipe

Absolutely - I think something like this could make it non-profitable to operate as a telemarketer or telescammer anymore.

Super cool! Is there a complete list of algorithms covered by this site? Does it cover more esoteric ones like fibonacci search? Or mainly just linear/binary search + lots of sorting algorithms? I think it may also be good to also have

Any recommendations on study path for this? Not due to the money/remote aspect, but rather I have genuine interest in these things specifically. Would a curriculum like this be at all valuable: https://uh.edu/data-scien

I will feel like my note-world is my kid if I spend a year putting notes into this. Will I lose all my notes if you shut down the app?

Also left click should be "place new if null and immediately open note" to reduce friction. Right click can be context menu for changing color/placing objects etc.

Definitely need that font size option! ... or, better, just good dynamic autoscaling based on f(text_length, box_size, zoom_level) and maybe a font size override option for static association. Also need a drag feature for increasing island

A lot of people feel that if the current team is successful, then obviously you should hire more people who are similar to your current team.

I totally agree, which is why I haven't ever used a service like this.

Along with atomic mass (7 for lithium, 19 for potassium) This means that for a given number of atoms, a K battery will store less energy and be significantly heavier than an Li battery. So maybe if it's cheaper that's okay for fin

A large storage closet in my apartment building (nice one, Houston) is $20/mo. Can fit grill+bicycle+boxes+more. I probably wouldn't pay more than that to permanently store a suitcase somewhere. That would be the ceiling for me. S

Edited mine to correct this. I think the Berkeley case has had a chilling effect on other universities, such as Stanford. They also have not released lecturers since then as far as I can tell. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I believe that's an open question currently and badly needs legal clarification. One standard proposed at HN from time to time is that maybe websites with high revenue should be required to conform with a specific standard such as W3C&

Context is important. This is Berkeley. They can do text to speech at an inconsequential cost. Other websites probably not so much. It's important to acknowledge economic/technical realities separately from value systems. We can d
