I thought about this article a lot since it was published. I might be going off the tangent a bit here but it might be relevant here I do think it is possible to make create a comp…

Not a prep course, but for example Redis has a very good source code overview here https://github.com/antirez/redis#redis-internals More remarkable is the fact that antirez updated…

Do you need an understanding of compilers to go through this? What are the prerequisites?

Edited original comment. Sorry for the confusion.

I have some C programming experience and I wanted to learn C++ so I bought and started reading Stoustrop's book, thinking it's the K&R of C++. It's the worst programming book I hav…

I like to print them out. Reading from any type of screen hurts my eyes. Has anyone got experience reading papers in Kindle. How does it feel like?

I clicked on this expecting some technical stuff and all I got was this BS social/community whining. Well, even in the worst case where FreeBSD community is trash, they have one of…

I read it was something like their hackathons started at 8 PM.

I also think there is some corporate backing in C++ compilers. Like a few internal company people are getting paid to fix this kind of stuff. Regardless, it's great to see C++ comp…

I remember watching a 90 minute documentary on Chernobyl on television around 2010. It was mentioned that the construction of sarcophagus was 10 year behind schedule. Glad to see t…

I will name two: Remote and Rework, books by BaseCamp founders

I think this "machine learning for hackers" approach is just not enough. Oftentimes, you do need a solid theoretical/mathematical background. Most people seems to approach ML like …

This book looks good from a cursory glance. Can anyone please tell me if I should read this one or Paul Graham's ANSI common lisp. I have some background in scheme due to SICP. Tha…

Some open source projects have "Easy to Fix" issues to get people on the roll (like Scikit-Learn), but many don't. Some have overview of their source code and their design principl…

I have been working remotely for a few months now after spending many years in offices and I agree I am much more productive. You might want to check out https://www.toptal.com You…

This is really great! Thanks for sharing. Here are some comments: * Make a title of your webpage using tag in * I was not sure the "organization" was meant to be a input field. Ple…

I am working remotely and I am 12 hours away from the main team. All the good stuff mentioned in this article is absolutely true. I guess the only downside is the real lack of soci…

This is a really good course, but the one that requires a lot of background in probability and some background in linear algebra. One of the objectives of this course is to prepare…

I also use google flights but I thought google flights was created after Google acquired ITA software. Isn't it ITA's backend behind google.com/flights?

I have been working remotely for past few months after spending years at offices and I can say, it's way more productive.

This can be summed up as: Languages like Python are easy to learn but hard to master whereas C is hard to learn but easy to master.

I heard that BSD is really good with network stuff with their kqueue. See for example this comparison http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/~sangjin/2012/12/21/epoll-vs-kq... In particular,…
