Haha, solved? Put in the time windows, put the capacity limits, put the pickup and delivery (this isn't same as just delivery). It's far from solved, and far from efficient. Field …

It'd be interesting to see how someone handles vehicle routing problem on a large scale, quickly and optimally.

Logistics of planning all those orders and rides is expensive.

You don't have to. You have an office in Germany, you work for the office in the US. Both companies are entirely unrelated, only thing that bonds them is a contract for doing the w…

That's why any startup that wants business will make an Inc in the US. It's legally much simpler to do so, and leave your offices in the cheap EU. US Inc can employ your offices an…

Little bit of machine learning and here you go. The biggest deal is to collect the data. After data arrives, they can then look for any patterns they need. Filter anything that see…

When did I say that? If you believe I'm advocating for women being raised to become engineers then you and everyone else who downvotes me is silly. I'm talking about gender roles. …

How come physics can't predict the warmest superconductor?

I'm not advocating for girls playing boy games. I'm just saying that there's crazy amount of conditioning here, and that people might unconsciously make choices for their daughters…

Even simpler methods exist. Realize that framing your daughters behavior by giving her babies, princesses, dolls, makeup, clothes and similar to play with, while your boy gets the …

Loving the haskell to javascript thingy. On my i7 4770 animations are still fast. Although, I thought that animations were done completely in haskell but it seems that necessary fu…

The situation gets even more extreme when you consider FPGAs. Having done Mandelbrot set as a toy example, it worked faster than a graphics card at producing high-resolution images…

3/18 , most of the time I picked something 10x slower than the lower num. Guess I'm stuck in the past :(

Yeah, not all features of C++ are for students. But writing highly efficient code if one's aware of the copy-move semantics is almost straightforward. I can't remember when some la…

Yeah, it was probably something symmetrical in the laws that allowed them to simulate only single part of the coil - saving the computing time and lowering the search space, stacki…

These big engineering projects always leave me with feelings of awe. It so interesting to look at the shape of the coil, nothing regular. Shapes optimized by a super computer, who …

The Double (2013) and Enemy (2013). One starring Eisenberg, one Gylenahsiadjkl.

As I've said somewhere down the thread, OSRM has the same functionality and speed is supreme. Microsoft Research paper I've cited is equivalent to 5 reads of memory and needs about…

You are really arguing that? What system would calculate a shortest path between Sydney and London? There's an incredible amount of sparseness in the matrix. OSRM builts a hierarch…

It's a mobile app primarily. OSRM is a nice project - out of the box. The lead went to some giant - so project is currently a bit stray but there are also some other alternatives o…

Google Maps is just too expensive and its pricing model isn't exponential at all, it's not even quadratic. Very common operation is looking for pairwise distance matrix. Pricing an…

> You are not the customer they want. That's true. Then I'd say I just don't like the engineering they are doing.

Of course, root, without it I couldn't do a thing. I have Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 but older edition, battery is still fine, the OS got slow, even on factory reset, so, I decided t…

I have a 4 year old phone. Without all of the kernel optimizations, forced removal of Google App and Google Play Services, I wouldn't be able to do anything. My battery lasts 4 day…

These problems aren't that hard, although they do not say anything about the person that solves them. One can prepare for a Google interview in 1-3 months and I'm sure there's a pr…
