I remember seeing someone who did this (for Python) with magic for auto-importing modules. I can't seem to find it for the life of me, but that feature was really nice. I'll give a shoutout to a similar project I did with Python (

Of regulators though, FinCen has more presence than most on the West Coast. It's not a foreign concept, especially once you realize how Visa et al. are headquarted in SF as well.

Looks like this is a demo for the Microsoft Azure ML. The main value-add here seems to be integration with the rest of Microsoft's technology suite, with its visualization, live streaming stuff, etc. For the actual age/gender esti

I couldn't find out how to do this with standard bash commands. Maybe someone can enlighten me with that or better tools, but until then, there's this.

It's a prank! Giving a company their own geofilter seems like a fun tribute in a way.

I don't see why there are so many downvotes to this. This is a clear and obvious counter-argument to people jumping the gun and saying it must be the government. While it doesn't _prove_ that it wasn't the government, there&#

This sounds like what the Japanese call Hikikomori ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hikikomori ). I saw a wonderful anime about a Hikikomori character recently, called Welcome to the NHK. It's on Netflix, and I recomm

"Peter won’t invest in any companies while they’re in YC or for 3 months after they present at Demo Day (this will apply to Peter’s investment entities as well), which should eliminate any unfair advantage." I wonder if having Pet
