    I'm doing this year in K2 (after a long hiatus from K). Is there a K4/5 binary? ATW gave me a K2 binary, but I miss some of the K4 and later functionality): https://github.com/jnor…

    I'm doing it in K2 this year (a language that has a single data structure: a vector). If you can do it in K2, you can do it in Go.

    Can't this be solved to some sort of DP way of solving the sub problem? Do the payout between 0 and 1 as the percentage of the amount. With a range of 1 to 1 to pay off is obviousl…

    I hate that. It turns the problem into one of those lateral thinking puzzles we were told some basic information and then the answer winds up being something totally wildly differe…

    I thought the Branch Target Predictor on x64 was global, not local, and it has to kick in before decode so even direct branches can be mispredicted. Branch prediction is 2 parts - …

    CH definitely has more installations. not sure about which pulls in more revenue. KDB installations will run you $250,000/yr on the low-end for just the software license. Not sure …

    kdb+ isn't in there either, and that is more important than CH I think. KDB is boring, just uses a placeholder. I think it might be because these two do it in a boring fashion.

    The title of the article doesn't match the rest. Productivity is getting more from the same inputs, not getting more with more inputs. First, there is very little data and just a c…

    I'm going to need some data to prove this. I keep seeing this claim, but have not seen anything more than conjecture. There are just too many factors for this, and you would have t…
