Hoboken is an awesome little city! I spent about 1.5 years there, commuting to SoHo on the PATH, and absolutely loved it. Everyone that visited me fell in love with it as well. I'd move back in a heartbeat.

Every morning I'd take a run around the city: up Willow to 12th, over to Sinatra Dr and down to Newark St. Watching the sunrise over NYC and the Hudson was breathtaking.
Are there any benefits to stock grants over purchasing stock yourself? I'm assuming there is no transaction cost? If so I'd just treat the grants as part of my portfolio and divest with the money I make from the job.

You have to believe in the company you work for to some degree. If you don't the smarter risk management move would be to move on to another company not to sell your grants.

Nevertheless the overall point is good. You should treat grants as an additional item depending on the same company you draw your income from.

Oxford has no exams in the second year for many subjects (and no tests other than maybe college 'collections' at the start of each term which don't count for anything, but my college didn't even do those for my subject).

Personally I really liked it as it gave me a lot of time to spend trying to really understand my subject without exams and revision hanging over me. It also helped I think that our tutors didn't generally set or mark the exams when we did have them. It did put a lot of pressure on for finals though knowing everything was hanging on how you performed over the course of eight exams in a fortnight.

Side note: "Kala" means time, in Sanskrit. It also means someone who controls "death". Feminine form of it is "kali". I think it is only fitting to name a scheduler after time (or something that is controlled by it). ;)

Some games have mechanisms to manipulate their RNG and it is even used in some TASes.

During this year's SGDQ's TAS block they had a TAS of a Sonic game that used exactly this technique: the bot waited at the title screen the exact amount of frames to manipulate the seed of the game's RNG.

Perhaps a similar mechanism can be used for DK.

This is how it worked at my University some 15 years ago (for some classes at least). The teacher would give us optional assignments that if completed would score against the final exam. ASFAIR completing all assignments successfully meant you didn't need to take the exam unless you aimed for a higher grade than pass.
Normalisation makes more sense over larger populations. If most people across a large group do much worse on a particular exam, is it more likely that everyone screwed up, or that the exam was unusually hard?

According to the spec, Thor is a more traditional block-based codec with quadtree subdivisions in the vein of H.264 and forward.

Beyond that the design is rather conservative and different from Daala's "start over from scratch" methodology. It doesn't look like the two would be poised to merge directly a-la Opus at this point, but rather to be mutual test beds and borrow and exchange unencumbered ideas that work well.

Many of these types are basically combining two pentagons into an octagon (or even hexagon) then tiling it across the plane. For some reason, intuitively those seem more easy to me (2 * 3, 2 * 4), so that you could just generate a bunch of them, and split them in two to create tessellating pentagons?

Even the example in the article can be viewed as a regularly tessellating nonagon. I don't see what's "irregular" about it? The article doesn't mention that word, but the HN title does.
Huh, I had no idea. What a shame!

It is available the version 7.1a, but the TrueCrypt development has stopped (for now).
An alternative solution is VeraCrypt (build over Truecrypt 7.1a): https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/

VeraCrypt says to add extra security features (ex.
TrueCrypt uses PBKDF2-RIPEMD160 with 1000 iterations whereas in VeraCrypt we use 327661): https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/discussions/569777#PostConten...

Do you think VeraCrypt is an valid alternative? or have they only fix something in TrueCrypt ( like change the CONSTANT value of iterations )
I've heard that leveraged funds aren't great as long-term vehicles[0]. Even the summary of TQQQ says this:

Due to the compounding of daily returns, ProShares' returns over periods other than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the target return for the same period.

Though if you are into market timing, they seem cool.

Surely something like Logo has similar advantages (small set of simple instructions) without requiring students to learn about CPUs before they can start? Plus it means they get to draw pictures instead of relatively boring calculations.

You're jumping to a lot of conclusions.

1) I do use app stores (F-Droid, Play etc) but I have no use for the Windows Store. Windows ModernUI apps are basically stripped down versions of more feature-filled desktop applications, so why wouldn't I just use them instead?

2) Secure apps? What does this even mean?

3) I love AI. I play games, so I have to.

4) Again, not even sure what you're suggesting.

5) I do use cloud services. Just not Microsoft, Google or Apple ones.

6) Modern does not immediately equate to good. This kind of thinking is naive.

My Windows machine is for games and games alone. I have no need or want of any of Microsoft's cloud integration.
While profoundly true to some extent that Twitter is failing in creating a proper interaction space for advertisers (and this is becoming increasingly annoying for its genuine users) I also suspect Google, Facebook and the others are nourishing the blame on Twitter a) to keep their own advertising value as high as possible b) to acquire TWTR at the lowest price.

Teflon is the trade name for PTFE, a polymer (long skinny molecule made of a chain of identical parts) with extremely low friction which is strong, has a high melting point compared to other polymers, and doesn’t react with most chemicals, making it useful as a lubricant, non-stick coating, and electrical insulator for aerospace circuitry, with a long list of other niche uses.

PTFE is stable and nontoxic at temperatures below about 250° celsius.

PFOA, a.k.a. C8, is a surfactant (“soap”) which was used in the polymerization of PTFE. (But also used for many other purposes, e.g. as an ingredient in carpet cleaners and fire-fighting foam.)

PFOA is a toxin and carcinogen which bioaccumulates and causes nasty problems for people exposed to large amounts of it.
This assumes really fast turn arounds on this information.

There's time taken to submit data to a central clearing house and time taken for them to publish it.

Many people may not want you to have a real time feed letting people know what shares they have just sold.

There also exist accounting cycles and hence corresponding disclosure cycles. CEOs can make non related entity trades, mask trades, etc. Seasoned financiers are far smarter than the new entrant. They will find ways to reduce their "downside", and increase their upside.

You always want to ensure that new entrants are not left to the mercy and warm fuzzy feeling of finance experts. The rule is that they can't afford them.
I have a small part of my savings invested in the company I work for (about 15% or so); it's had 10-25% interest every year for its ten year existence and I have confidence enough in my company. The rest is divided between savings and a traditional bank account (about half, which is still enough to pay the rent and such for a year), and various investment products (some traditional shares, I'm at a few hundred in profit on those if I decide to sell now, and an investment fund that spreads it out over many stocks).

The safe option - stashing it in a savings account - is not worth your while; interest rates on savings account over here have dived below 1% now, which means that you're actually making a loss on them if you add inflation and increased taxes and such to it. Moving part to a higher risk, but higher interest rate is worth it to me. Even if the interest on the investments would be just 2%, it's still better than a savings account.
Large enterprise account engagement is trickier, than say a solo consultant contract with a startup, because there are way more expectations to manage and moving parts to coordinate. As a client-facing consultant, you're often having to balance multiple masters of client and internal politics without having bleed-through and maintain a unified position regardless of other people's screw-ups, accidents or outright lies.

Great, thank you Ramez.

I know they're different technologies, but I wonder on the cross-over effects of the two. If people see a solar thermal plant going up near their town, will it encourage or discourage them from installing PVCs? Are nation states that encourage / subsidise large-scale solar thermal deployments more likely to encourage end-user scale (PVC-based) systems?

Entirely agree managing storage is increasingly the pain point - in both scales of systems (thermal just rides out cloudy / dark periods more smoothly, I believe).

Is it still true that the most $-effective large-scale power-storage mechanism is to pump water up a hill?

IMO - its a question of exposure and convexity of your positions moreso than risk. Risk involves predicting the chance that different outcomes occur and...no one is really good at that. However, do you feel comfortable exposing X% of your total assets to the upside of Google growth? If you think in terms of controlling your max loss per opportunity and making sure you're in ones that have significantly more upside than exposure, you don't need to predict correctly quite as much.

I disagree that learning is a delicacy. Learning is an innate human behavior. It's what separates us from the animals. It's how we became apex predators across multiple biomes stretching across the globe. You can see this in children, they have unbridled curiosity and depthless enthusiasm for learning. But they have a limited tolerance for tedium and bureaucracy, and those are in extreme abundance in education today. It's a system that's practically designed to beat out any hint of desire for learning, intellectualism, and reading. In some ways it's a wonder that any vestige of those things survive at all through such experiences.

Universities I have attended have procedures to deal with those instances in which everyone performs equally badly. It is almost always an indication that something else is amiss. Your answer has not convinced me that giving an A to a student who got 55% correct on a test displays a command of the subject simply because everyone else got 30% correct.

Not eating makes you lose weight. Doesn't matter when you eat, eating less, and eating better food (fresh, non-processed. If it doesn't run, grow on a tree/plant, or swim, don't eat it) will make you lose weight.
the = vs == is just an example of how having a robust mental picture of how computers actually work makes high level programming more intuitive. And you don't really have to teach a real CPU for this to work. Check out that link I posted. It's a greatly simplified CPU simulator with visual feedback on every step the CPU is taking (e.g., PC increment, fetching the next instruction, storing something in memory etc.) It's great fun for kids to watch how a little program they wrote made the computer do all that work.
Really good points.

I expect you're right about the expressiveness, although I don't really know exactly what you mean by this. The "buffet of abstractions" available in Scala actually put me off it. For me, there are too many options available to expect to have readable, maintainable code at the end of it all, especially if you work in a team which regularly creates almost wilfully hard-to-comprehend java.

This video is 2 years old now, but I think it marked the point when I stopped investigating scala. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS1lpKBMkgg&feature=youtube_...
Not sure jumping on such a minor point is a productive use of our time, but just for the sake of clarification: sure I can, personally. You have no basis for disputing my intention. I have never in my life made a decision to purchase a service that could only ever be provided by a single company, and with good reason I believe. Over my contracting years, I have also gained enough insight into the dynamics customers have with providers such as Oracle, enough to avoid this kind of lock-in at all costs in my own decisions.

I have seen people follow this strategy and then the stock goes through the roof. Yes, diversification is generally smart, but seeing all of your colleagues get rich while you make 8% returns can be very difficult emotionally. Therefore, I'd sell most of the grant but keep a significant fraction (maybe 25%) as a hedge.
2015 Blackhat Keynote – The law, security and censorship of the internet
The accuracy of self-reported energy intake using the 24-hour daily recall method has been shown to be consistent across BMI levels:

"Accuracy of recall was not related to body mass index in that the obese men recalled food intake as accurately as the nonobese men." [1]

Accelerometers were used in the Chinese study to measure physical activity:

"No differences in PA [physical activity] and SB [sedentary behavior] were found across different BMI categories." [2]

A European study where the childrens' parents were doing the reporting rather than the subjects themselves concluded:

"The data suggest the belief that overweight children eat more than non-overweight children is not correct." [3]

Studies on identical twins showed that caloric intake didn't account for differences in weight between twins. Specific types of gut bacteria present in low-weight individuals were found to have a protective effect against obesity however. [4][5]

There is little difference between the energy intake of most overweight people and their normal weight counterparts. Factors like gut biology and intestinal absorption play a much more important role.

The Nutrition Science Initiative was developed to address the need for more clinical research in this area. [6]

I still find it astonishing how good of an abstraction Matrices are for representing physical data. In CS terms, the use of matrix notation has allowed the description of complex multidimensional systems to be scalable. i.e. instead of adding an entry to the equation for every equation, you represent ALL the variables in a matrix and change that one matrix instead. So, this way of representation allows one to observe the relationships between these numbers better.

Little wonder that beginner physicists spend so much time mastering matrices and linear algebra.
The very least the governments can do is eliminate all subsidies to coal, oil and natural gas. They've had them for decades. I don't think it's healthy for a society to prop up an industry that long with subsidies, especially when it's one of the most profitable.
