As an epileptic mathematician, I'd like to say thanks for making this. It was both interesting and informative. As an extension, could I suggest looking at different types of seizure? E.g. tonic clonic vs Grand Mal

Code challenges like this are interesting - thank you for putting this together! I do have a question about the set-up, if that's alright. Netflix and others have found that shared tasks can lead to great models, but not necessarily on

Question for those who might know: how common is it for the ordinary mainland Chinese person to attempt to circumvent the great firewall? Do people there actually care about what they might be missing, as this incident implies?

Incorporating HK isn't going well so far though, is it? The future isn't written. A few weeks ago, it was inconceivable that the extradition bill will be withdrawn. I'm not saying things will turn out one way or another, only

It's weird how the people who are best-informed here seem to be the latest to the party as far as that realisation goes. Why did they (by that I mean, We), even decide to kick the whole IPO process off? Surely they didn't need to

If they can figure out how to get cash out of the gigantic amount of people who use slack without anyone paying for anything, it'll be phenomenal. Really hope the answer isn't ads!

Really? I've got Privacy Badger working in my browser (chrome) and everything is fine. Wonder what the specific difference is.

The "E" in EBITDA stands for earnings - what particular distinction did you see between EBITDA and the earnings you're talking about? Completely off-topic, I read somewhere recently that EBITDA could also stand for "Earn

"compute" actually is a verb, though, I thought? I think you mean "noun".

LA is a very strange place to me - I read about all this havoc, but whenever I fly in there and do stuff it seems fairly quiet and almost somnabulent.
