Fuck yes. That is why people refer to getting laid as "getting lucky." Thank you for eloquently explaining this, and reposting a link for those of us who missed it the first time around.

You're right, Fox did do some bold things. Married with Children is probably another.

Or The Mars Volta, or Cinematic Orchestra, or the Mission Impossible theme. Anyway, Time Out is great, but it is anything but overlooked.

I'm slim, tall, and handsome, and I cook my own food, thank you very much :) Actually, one of the restaurants I truly enjoy is Au Pied De Cochon in Montreal, where it gets way "worse" than butter, lard and salt. Maybe it's a good thing I li

Maybe you imagine me stuffing myself with bigmacs. It's not how I see it. My love for food and drinks has led to a love for cooking, wine pairing, and mixology. I don't see how this could be sad, and I doubt that my enjoyment of pleasure wi

Absolutely. I love cooking with fresh ingredients and hate fast food, and most restaurants for that matter. Although I may love cooking some foie gras a few times a year, what I cook is generally a lot healthier than what a person who doesn

That may be, but people interested in computer science are, in my anecdotal experience, less likely to be interested in visual design (and vice versa). E.g. I can look pretty smart when talking about math or cs, but I'd look retarded if I s

Even though I consider all of these musicians to be greater than Miles Davis, it was Miles Davis who, as a band leader, let these individual members not only play in his band, but also shine by letting each of them solo on pieces instead of

Equivalently, it's difficult to say whether Anthony Braxton's or John Zorn's music is jazz, even though they use improvisation, and are referred to as jazz musicians.

As I understand it, it's better to learn assembly, algorithms and parallel computing. Some firms even look for PhDs in machine learning. The finance side you can learn when you find a job.

Stiffness is a property of certain dynamical systems, which certain ODE solvers are better suited for. That said, "stability" is an ugly word in numerical methods, particularly for differential equations, as it could mean a number of things

Reading HN will also not expose you to non-hacker-related information. At the same time, it's always possible to make the stories you're more likely to like more likely to be chosen, and introduce some randomness to be exposed to the odd lo
