Even if I did have access, I certainly wouldn't want to go back and start changing things. I cared deeply about my members and fully trusted my administrative team to do what they thought was best, and sometimes that meant putting asi

So basically, a WOPR's "the only winning move is not to play" moment?

That's very interesting. But then, I remember doing some work on college about Gödel number ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del_numbering ). Would it be possible for example, to use this as a form of encoding

I Was thinking for example, how hard would it be to let an algorithm pick a random number of valid tokens from a language (say java) and the suyccess metric be something like, the amount (or score) of errors that the compiler returns. Presu

Wow. That does sound inefficient.

Ah.. seems like I finally got out of it at gen ~530 by changing the amount of champions to copy to increase the amount of gene variation in the pool. I guess it kinda stuck into an inbreeding sort of loop.

A bit OT, but I remember a very cool Quake2 mod that basically built a neural network so that bots could learn how to play. The useful part was that you could save the NN to a file, and so you could let Q2 run for hours (mostly I left it at

Very nice collection, although I think it has a bit too many martian terrain ones and not enough of other types. I love martian terrains but they all seems to look like abstract art after a few images. How about moon shots and other stuff?

I think he is using the word more like a way of saying "the group of factors that ultimately led to this change" and not as if there was actually a change waiting for a trigger so that then "it can happen". At least that

This is actually quite impressive! I wonder how much time it takes to scan one person? If these were made and distributed to enough hospitals adn scan is fast/cheap enough, I'm guessing you could make things quite more efficient&#

0 downloads. I guess I'll have to be the first. Edit: Now that I think about it, it said 1-5 installs, so most likely not the first.

Very nice work. Interesting what can be done with this. One question though, does anyone have any idea what the copyright for this would be? If you happen to use X dictionary (one for each implemented language for example, or even maybe as

Interesting how out of the total HN population there is more than one person that lived in this very small town. Not sure what to make out of it, but certainly interesting.

This is impressive! Edit: We really can't be alone in this universe.

Done. I also didn't hear about this until now, but surely the 2-to-1 matching is very nice. We really need to donate to this kinds of projects. We can't let our technological past be forgotten, I think.

Around 5:18 she says "I wish I could talk in Technicolor". I think that shows how much of an impression LSD made, as well as what it meant at that time for a housewife to watch a movie in Technicolor. To me, it seems that she is t

This sounds like this would be fertile grounds for an airline to be disruptive. Imagine what would happen if there was an airline that could set fixed prices for, let's say, the next 2 or 4 weeks. So you can search for a ticket price o

And how do you fix that? I'm no Solaris guru obviously, but this looks like a chicken-and-egg problem. How do you actually go about fixing this? It's sounds very... Kafkesque

How big is Trulia? I'm asking because I can imagine that vacation dynamics have a lot to do with company size. So maybe we can get a better idea.

As weird as it may seem, in Mexico we have the same deal, although if I remember correctly, by law we get a 25% extra pay on vacation days. Some places use this as a benefit to lure employees. For example I worked at a place where I got 75%

That's what I thought as well. I guess I was not that off course. But I would still need to refresh the very basic Lisp I used in college. In any case, learning 6502 asm seems like a must like you say. I'm gonna have to try to lea

Wow... programming in Lisp is already not that mainstream... and on top of it, for the NES? Impressive. I so want to start learning to program in NES now. Not really in Lisp as I would like to learning curve to be gentler, but this article

I would recommend to head over to investopedia.com and play with fake money first. Do this for about a year or two before thinking on investing real money. It sounds long and boring but that's because it takes a lot just to understand

Back Orifice was an awesome tool. Very fun to play pranks on less knowledgeable friends. I even remember starting to learn Delphi 3 because I met a guy that did a similar tool called Hacker's Paradise, but was later renamed to Admin&#x
