This was the one that really stood out to me. MOOCs, bootcamps etc are wildly popular now and vary massively in quality. It's very easy for candidates to look good on paper but not…

The canonical source for learning Scala from scratch (at least, when I was learning a couple of years ago) is the Coursera course by Martin Odersky, one of the language's founders.…

I think you underestimate how much having something tactile, with buttons and LEDs, can really shift how younger students perceive learning. I volunteer teach a group of 8/9 year o…

I heard a good rule of thumb to follow when drawing Feynman Diagrams is that the fewer lines there are, the more probable the occurrence of the event represented by the diagram. So…

I think that's just the nature of the query. Every single one of the first page of organic results for me is exactly the same: http://imgur.com/cypF0He

I'd be interested in seeing that when it's ready!

If you include their laptops then they're all double screen really

Nothing groundbreaking, but good analysis rarely is. I'd be interested to see the relationship between comment karma and age of post though - do earlier comments always get more at…

Isn't it a bit silly to throw away every single @ tweet? Imagine I'm having a twitter conversation with my friends about who can make the best pangram and this data is ignored just…

"could care less" only exists out of misappropriation of the original idiom though, which is "couldn't care less" - a phrase which makes far more sense.

From the description of the problem immediately afterwards, they're looking for you to return "a" (a variable name) which is the magnitude of the volume given less the volume of 1 …

Same problem here. What a shame, I was hoping to be able to read/type some thrilling literature...

This looks amazing! Your docs page 404s for me every other refresh and doesn't load with any CSS. I'm guessing this is a load problem? Edit: Managed to load it with styling this ti…

Thanks for this, I really appreciate the section at the end on a suggested learning process. Looks like I've got my weekend planned!

I'm not sure if that's true. Their line about refunding unused data says "you’ll get your unused data credited in dollars and cents" which implies that it may be as fine grained as…

Why does wikipedia link them with Palantir (and vice versa)? Is it just because they seem to be providing similar products or is there more to it?

When they mentioned rebranding the mount as a Hailo lift I was hoping they'd take it a step further and invent the Uber Hailo Lyft

The only thing most of us were thinking, scrolling down that site. I definitely missed some text as my eyes glazed over...

I like his idea of having an alias to commit to when he wants to save off work. If you combine that with a checkout (co) alias which saves the current branch and checks the latest …
