   I can draw many parallels between this and Genetic Algorithms. There is percentage of probability in choosing next choice(In GA, children), and we have highest probability for the most profitable(In GA, fittest) choices. The solutions evolv

   That looks like Tony Stark's interface, except this is in 2D.

   Oh well, without all those projects IIT is not just IIT. There is no lack of projects at IITs. It is the passion and research attitude that is lacking. Most (not all) students involve and finish those projects, essentially to get their CVs

   >>but I think it is unfair to expect a lot from UG students Each year almost 7000 teenagers are filtered out in India to be sent to IIT, the best place of all in India. At least 10% of these are supposed (or 'have the potential') to

   I was just going to write similar thing. This shows that there is a significant percentage of HN users, who haven't had formal introduction to basic CS concepts.

   While that is a smart hack, user should be informed of what is going on. I don't think that is a good design decision. Danger of disconnection in bandwidth limited networks!

    Yes, Professor Widom was incredible in terms of teaching concepts clearly. But it's very difficult for anyone to produce such an enthusiasm to a passive camera as one would in a live classroom full of students. What I am complaining is not

    Well I had taken db-class as a supplement to actual course at my College. It was just the professor speaking into the camera. While the courses like CS50, were so exciting. I guess it's a personal problem then!

    It's great MIT and Harvard are combining forces. It completely makes sense. Offering similar courses individually to the same Internet Audience is waste of resources. By the way, all of these courses from Udacity, Coursera, MITx lack one un

    Wow I previously searched for such emulation, for sharing files over sftp/ssh. But I had done using ssh keys. Here is the HN Submission http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3554318

    While there is the same origin policy, there is mechanism to share some resources as Matthew pointed out. Even if you host a site on domain ex1, you can still access resource at google maps through API.

    I would just point the script tag to the raw file address on github (eg. https://raw.github.com/sravfeyn/SparkDC/master/.download.py ), than using github pages!

    Github already hosts lot of code and allows free downloads. By hosting a static site, we essentially are hosting an HTML file which can be downloaded. Unless the site is of very High traffic, it is already sustainable for Github.Consider fo

    I have a question that suits the context. How can I get syntax highlighting on Bash while in interactive mode of interpreted languages like Python. Also applies to Standard-ML prompt.

    If you train the predictor with URLs that user has browsed(from browser history) even if they are not originated from HN, would improve the predicting model. Because, user's browser history would reflect his interests.
