I also agree with the article author to give them a take home project to work on. Just saying that a computer science degree and a 10 min chalk board test are a pretty terrible way…

As someone with a computer science degree I can say I've never questioned it being on my companies job postings. But when I think about it I'd rather see a candidate with an excell…

"I hope to see the industry improve in this respect, but in the meantime I'm happy to exploit this imbalance as a competitive advantage." I wonder how much of requiring a computer …

This is the company the FBI supposedly contracted ( http://www.cellebrite.com/Pages/cellebrite-solution-for-lock... ), if that's the case it's just older devices that don't have th…

This bummed me out as well, but it's worth noting if you have an Apple Watch that has a barometer in it.

Most retail accept them through companies like coinbase or bitpay but they immediately convert them to USD so their exposure to a bitcoin hack is minimal. The reason they do this h…

SHA256 is used for mining but that would only expose new coins that are being generated. If there was a vulnerability there the community would switch to a new mining algorithm to …

Yeah, I just pulled the title from the github issue. I got it and liked the image for the project, I just think it's a little crazy this is a controversial issue and wanted to see …

That's a pretty good comparison. In both cases you are adding warmth to a source one via software and the other via an amp.

A counter argument I'd give is has anyone ever described a TV as being too harsh, as in they can't watch it for an hour without experiencing "fatigue" that causes them to need to s…

In pomodoro if you get interrupted to the point where you need to stop what you are working on you are supposed to stop the timer and start over when you can. It forces you to make…

I haven't used it but I did attend the talk on it at the AWS conference when it was announced. It is not using DynamoDB under the covers. It basically uses a fork of MySQL for the …

This would only make sense if when you moved bitcoins into coinbase they immediately converted them to USD. In that case, sure they would need to have USD on hand to cover your fun…

I'm sure he took it with an iPhone 6 cause that's the phone he has but it also looks like higher than usual ISO probably due to bad lighting. The bigger issue is think about how cl…

Now that it's in stores to try out (they have units on the table you can use the UI on in addition to the try on appointments) people should just go check it out for themselves. I …

It's kinda buried in all the announcements today but before this AWS Lambda could only be used for asynchronous calls. So if you were developing a mobile backend you could only pro…

I don't know the answer to this but given the user is the one who didn't complete the transaction in 10 minutes they are probably held responsible. I would guess if it was underpai…

To put this in perspective here is some napkin calculations on how much power dogecoin currently uses: Assuming an average kh/watt of 2.333 [1] and the total network hashrate of 68…

Considering the term goxxed is a staple of bitcoin vernacular I wonder why they decided to use it as their rebranding.
