Holy moly, $16k for 12 weeks? That's a few thousand more than in-state tuition for a year at Berkeley (or any UC for that matter).

I also learned this not long after I started conducting coding interviews. People with resumes from the best schools and the best companies would fail in multiple interviews in a row. Nowadays I don't even look at the resume, though to

I'm not sure if it's a commonly held view, but I don't have a CS degree, and neither do some of the best people I work with, at a company most folks on this site would "rank" at least as high as IBM. That said, our

Sure, I just meant that going from that level of knowledge to shipping a working program which integrates with a non-trivial third party library is a decent showing for a new grad hire.

Yeah if she learned Python and for-loops that day, and was able to ship the desired project to the satisfaction of the judges, that's pretty impressive, right? Even if she used some existing code for facial recognition, isn't gl

The hospitals aren't being closed due to some guilt over them bearing too many similarities to the prison-industrial complex. They're being closed to save money, and the patients are thrown out on the street. Quite the opposite di

FWIW, Bank of America is partnered with Zelle. This is how I pay my rent each month.

From the article: Bethesda’s letter claims that Hupp’s sale is not protected by the First Sale Doctrine, because he is not selling the game in its original form, which would include a warranty. The letter says this lack of warranty renders

From the POV of this explanation, it's then quite fortuitous that the complexes are just two-dimensional over the reals, and can thus be easily visualized. That is, as soon as you adjoin the roots of x^2 + 1, and close under field oper
