I only realized when I watched Jiro Dreams of Sushi [1]. If I remember correctly there is a brief shot of his 5-Star Michelin plaque, which has the company logo on it. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1UDS2kgqY8

I really want to do the same trip they did! With less challenges and smaller souvenirs of course.

I was just at the Legacy of the Void launch event at the Coex in Seoul. There was one developer on hand who took questions from the crowd and tried to answer them without giving away any spoilers. There were also a few show matches betwee

I always thought it would be a neat HCI (or similar) experiment to create an app without any buttons. It would probably end up being a UX nightmare but the point would be to challenge the long held monopoly of the button/radio-button&

Although I don't work remotely, I'm happy that the tech/software industry seems to be one of the best industries for allowing people to work remotely. I would guess that this is influenced by the nature of our work, and the

Pretty cool; I searched for "stackoverflow.com", which, as expected, was surrounded by programming/software related websites. Was also surprised to see that my university's website (east coast Canadian school) gets 0.004

My guess would be they have a Node app that serves the front end views (pages), but the data is gathered by making requests to the Django REST backend.

I think this is what people are citing as an ideal scenario (where possible).

Could anyone go into more detail on why a CRF is a good model for this kind of task? In the article they say that is was good for similar tasks: > We chose to use a discriminative structured prediction model called a linear-chain condit

It would be nice if there was some sort of example on the landing page, so people could get a better idea of what the output is going to look like.

For the meantime, there is a very nice Go plugin for IntelliJ products: https://github.com/go-lang-plugin-org/go-lang-idea-plugin

I find the quality of their examples is really good, and helps to illustrate a point/topic without introducing too much 'noise'.

Jon Skeet facts: http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/9134/jon-skeet-facts My favourite: Jon Skeet is immutable. If something's going to change, it's going to have to be the rest of the universe.

Is this aimed mainly at beginners? I would be interested in brushing up on my Java, and would like to skip over the basic stuff like variables and conditional statements and stuff like that. (Downloading now)

I liked the humour tucked into the article > ... Seattle, it seems, takes its URLs seriously ... and > ... replaced by an “Under Construction” sign and no fewer than four GIFs of jackhammers and excavators. Clearly, some serious site

You might like Vancouver. It is always ranked as one of the best cities to live in, and it definitely has the natural beauty you're looking for.

Always interesting to look at these surveys. I especially liked looking at the compensation and purchasing power charts. At first, the United States looks like it is unquestionably the best place to work (compensation wise) while Eastern E

I agree with this. I did three co-op terms (I'm not sure how they're formally different from internships but anyways...) two of which were four months long, and one which was eight months long. I found that after three months, I

Just watched their video... I can't believe I have never heard of these guys before! Looks like they're translating natural-language into some sort of query language. Are there any well-known methods for doing this kind of thing?

Don't read too much into the "security clearance" part; I worked at LM and having that level of security clearance is pretty standard for any project.

Interesting that they pay a co-op fee in first year. I only had to pay co-op fees for the semesters before I actually went on a co-op term; and the first co-op term wasn't until after second year. Although it wasn't a huge part of

Could you order those (talks, Stackoverflow, blog posts, etc) in order of importance? I'm in a similar spot as OP; looking to become an evangelist. I've actually taken my first job internationally, and wouldn't mind the tra

It doesn't have to be a full stack solution. From meteor's article about the DDP protocol [1]: "...a mobile client written in pure Objective C, with no Meteor code, can connect to a Meteor server (say, by using the ObjectiveD
