"...maintaining it all costs upwards of $50 million per year"

It's really dumb that we're going to sit in ignorance of SO MUCH STUFF because someone in the government somewhere is getting into a tiff over this tiny, tiny drop in the government budget. For some perspective, apparently the US Gov spends about $1.7 Billion annually maintaining empty or abandoned federal buildings/land [1]

It's kind of funny how people who have made it as big as Jack Ma are still obsessed enough with Harvard to mention almost as a badge of honor that they were rejected from Harvard. As if to say "see Harvard was obviously wrong here". Harvard or any top school in no way can accept anywhere near all of the applicants that are qualified to attend those schools. As such there will be people that will be rejected and accepted almost arbitrarily at the whims of the admissions staff and or quotas of one type or another.

In my opinion elite universities are more for traditional career paths. They are nothing for entrepeneurs.

You waste too much time with exams.

There should be an opportunity to get credits for entrepeneurial work at university.

Edit: I am engineering alumnus of a so called elite university in germany and struggled much with exams because I just wanted to do more practical work which one can sell.
Is saving passwords in Chrome as safe as using LastPass if you stay signed in?

Not the answer you are looking for, but KSP[1] taught me about rockets, orbits and whatnot more than schools did. It's fun, accessible.. but won't really teach you exact math and physics (but might encourage you to do so).

Strangely this was a topic of discussion with my family the other day.

It's definitely selfish, but I need a way to get to space somehow. We could justify it as aiding the budding commercial space industry :)

It would have mass market appeal at ~12k USD a pop. The question becomes where would you send it?

Personally, I would love to drift into deep space, but could settle for the sun. Possibly a remembrance countdown on the web with clips of everyone to be sent off until launch.
Can we do submatch addressing with derivatives?

I think the answer is yes: extend the definition of an expression to include a recorder R(re,recorded-string) such that D(R(re,),c) -> R(D(re,c),c) -> R(re1,c). D(R(re1,c),d) -> R(D(re1,d),cd) -> R(re2,cd). Eventually you have R(,string), the recorded sub-matched string.

Checking each of the rules with it...

D(R(∅,s),c) -> ∅.
D(R(ε,s),c) -> ∅.
D(R(c,s),c) -> R(ε,sc).
D(R(c,s),d) -> ∅.
D(R(re,s),c) -> R(D(re,c),sc):

D(R(re1,s1)R(re2,s2),c) -> δ(R(re1,s))R(D(re2,c),s2c) | R(D(re1,c),s1c)R(re2,s2).

D(R(re1,s1)|R(re2,s2),c) -> D(R(re1,s1),c)|D(R(re2,s2),c).

D(R(re*,s),c) -> R(D(re*,c),sc).

R(∅,s) -> ∅.
δ(R(∅,s)) -> ∅.
δ(R(ε,s)) -> R(ε,s).
δ(R(re*,s)) -> R(ε,s).
δ(R(re1,s1)R(re2,s2)) -> δ(R(re1,s1))δ(R(re2,s2)).
δ(R(re1,s1)|R(re2,s2)) -> δ(R(re1,s1))|δ(R(re2,s2)).

I think it's good: when the input is done, you have a match only if the AST is only made up of R(ε,s1)R(ε,s2)...
The studies that I've seen say that pigs have the intellectual capacity of a 3 year old, which is easy enough to look up. They are trainable (they can do tricks), they have fun (like most mammals), but they are not a cuddly as a dog. Dogs are better at reading human emotions and "connecting" with people. Pigs I've worked with are typically just looking for food, a scratching post, and taking naps.
It's probably the ~5 years of Ruby I did prior to Go that inoculates me from that; I'd rather have "father knows best" than the opposite.

Many universities do have opportunity to get credits for entrepreneurial work. I would venture to say most do, if you talk to the department chair. Often they'll be called "independent study", but it is there.

The bigger question is whether you should be paying 3-4 figures per credit just to be recognized by the university for doing that independent study.
College admissions process over an year is an introspective and gut-wrenching experience and irrespective of the outcome, it does leave a lasting experience. Now considering if he did indeed apply 10 times, that says a lot about how much it would have affected him.
News scraper with Node.js
Ok you have a valid point but since the article is full of kind of wishy washy questions I didn't feel guilty about adding some more into the mix.

The title 'Why is Europe Failing to Create More Unicorns?' has an implicit bias in it. The question is saying that Europeans should create more of these massive new companies.

10 smaller companies might be better than 1 big company. 100 companies worth $10 million dollars each might provide the same number of jobs and the same services to the economy.

Maybe?

Admittedly if you listen to European entrepreneurs you can't come away and believe that everything is rosy for new businesses.

Addendum: Note that I honestly think that it is basically true: Europe's capitalists will not only profit from the refugee crisis, but they will do so for precisely the same reasons US capitalists profited from diversity. I'm deeply sorry I can't discuss mechanism on this forum; it takes too much hard boiled cynicism to fully grok. Yet I'm serious: The refugee immigration will ultimately boost Europe's tech competitiveness.
It's also worth remembering that some of the most common recipients of DMCA takedown requests don't actually deal with DMCA requests. For example, YouTube has Content ID, which doesn't actually trigger a true DMCA takedown until after the uploader has claimed they have the right to post the content in question. Content ID has long been weighted towards removing content; it's far easier to send an automated request versus trying to get a video reinstated.

I agree that solar is already at cost parity, but not after battery costs. Furthermore I live in Canada, in the winter our solar power generates only 1 / 80th of the power, and unless we're going to tie our energy security to the United States, we're going to need alternatives.

Nuclear power in Canada is a complete success. We generate at 6 to 7 cents per kilowatt hour in the first 30 years, and the amortized cost continues to decrease after that. Yes there are maintenance costs, but do you know what else there are? Medical isotopes that the world desperately needs to keep our diagnostics working.

You can make nuclear cheap and safe. The problem is cultural, not scientific. If a society is too greedy and corrupt or too deferent to authority, then nuclear won't work. But in places like Canada, Sweden, and France they work very, very well.

Also, Thorium reactors are much less likely to cause problems and they are part of the fifth gen reactor designs.

We need both nuclear and solar.
Thanks for the feedback.

I couldn't agree more. I see a ton of code that's not formatted correctly, doesn't have proper docblocks and a whole bunch of other stuff that was obviously left out because the creators were too lazy and didn't have the proper tools that would make fixing small things like that simple and easy. This almost always comes from people who claim they don't need an IDE. If you truly don't need an IDE and can write code that's up to par with people that do have one, that's fine. But most of the time, I just hear excuses of why the code isn't clean, and I automatically assume that these people just don't care about their work at all because they're not even interested in tools that will better their code. Needless to say, I try never to work with them again.

EDIT: Other stuff that's often gotten wrong are short variable/function names and spacing.

Bolden very clearly stated that he's upset that there's money for all these Russian ISS launches, but not for his SLS and the CCV programs. There is no bigger cheerleader for CCV than Bolden. This SLS vs CCV "controversy" is 100% manufactured.

"It’s as if we keep ordering expensive takeout because we haven’t yet set up our own kitchen — only, in this case, the takeout meals are costing us hundreds of millions of dollars," he writes.

That's neat. I know little about music. Would it be close to correct to say that this program finds the notes (hz, fourier) and checks if they the progression fit some predetermined pattern. eg. B4 must be followed by one of X1,X2,..., osv. ?

It's certainly more than "good intentions and well-crafted words", as the $2.25 million award for the GINA lawsuit earlier this year shows. See http://www.nature.com/news/why-the-devious-defecator-case-is... . While that's the first one to get to trial, the article says that the EEOC filed 333 cases last year which cited GINA.
jfim explains this well. Airlines want to get you to your destination and will roll you over to another flight if you miss your's. It's happened to me due to traffic jams.

Classical education is DEAD. I see this worldwide and there're countless examples about it.
1. Smart people do not get accepted for various reasons
2. There's no personalization of classes - people are not machines and shouldn't be treated to study the same thing in the same ways. No creativity inspired.

Colleges such as Harvard that base admissions decisions on grades, standardized test scores, traditional social/leadership signals (club x, sports team y), alumni connections, geographic/ethnic background, and writing/storytelling skills (i.e., the “personal essay”) are going to miss a lot of brilliant, innovative people and future leaders. The 17-year-old Steve Jobs (free spirit), Barack Obama (slacker), and Jack Ma (failed entrance exam) would never be admitted to a place like Harvard, at least as undergraduates.

Not that there's anything wrong with using a debugger as a tool, but I find it hard to understand why it's such a stringent requirement for some. I've never really had the need for one outside of a few instances over many languages, and I know many others that feel the same, which covers a much greater range of languages and styles of programming. Even so, I'm eagerly awaiting a good Go debugger when one arrives.

There are some being worked on, like delve (https://github.com/derekparker/delve/), which might be the most ambitious, but it's only recently becoming usable. The problem is partly due to my first statement, there's not a huge demand for these in the language ecosystem, so development has been slow.
Moviepilot Raises $16M for Its Fan-Centric Publishing Platform
I agree with some of your points: it was a little unfair, and Stalin and Mao certainly had great hubris. I tend to view libertarianism as the next desired grand social experiment: the Marxism of the Right. This leaks out via dry attempts at humor. Perhaps it won't be a disaster; I also admit I should be more respectful in a debating forum.

As for Hayek, I don't think he is unique in the view that price is about knowledge. While Hayek was the more readable and reasonable one between him and Von Mises, I'm aware the Austrians don't really believe one can scientifically study the economy, but I also think there is plenty of evidence that has refuted this: we can quantify and describe a large subset of the economy with predictive power.

One of the most important insights of Darwinism is that there's little, if any, discontinuity between "microevolution" and "macroevolution". At least in biology.

Of course, in human activities the "environment" is also man-given. We're able to challenge structural assumptions in, say, engineering, because broader maps (possibly showing that we're grinding at local optima) have been made by physicists, mathematicians or even philosophers. But these too are working at their "microevolution".

There's never a context where someone is thinking hard at the "fundamental assumptions" of an applied problem and brings a 100-year leap in the basic science, for example.
Yeah, this just seems sad to me. Symptom of a sheltered life.

My sample size is one, but I have a high school friend who went to a top school for college and is now at another one for graduate work

From my more humble vantage point it's been incredibly damaging. He has no social life outside of his career ( basically the people living the same lifestyle) and has been molded to be single mindedly focused on his studies. He's honestly in most ways has because a more dull individual.

(This is kinda funny b/c they were sorta conceived to emulate Oxford and Cambridge - which as I understand are all about he well-rounded "liberal arts eduction")

However that being said, it's hard to argue with the fact that all his colleagues and all the people he meets are incredibly intelligent/hard-working and he in effect has access to the best minds in the world. The fact he is so "networked" mean ofcourse he will always have a very well paying job, and most likely will eventually be in a position of power.

A corollary would be that if young Jack Ma went to Harvard, he wouldn't have become current Jack Ma, and would probably be another wealthy lawyer or something
Be careful with using social media followers/engagement as a metric, because it's an easily manipulated stat. According to some recent stories, a million of H Clinton's followers are fake or fakeish users, actually putting her closer to Jeb's actual number.

Also, with the increasing rise of sock puppetry, I would not be surprised to see these sort of artificially inflated numbers are not just organic, but a planned/hired out part of a public relations campaign.

Only after you've started one or two companies yourself do you get elevated to the lofty heights of pure thought leadership where you don't have to work and people still want to employ you to "lead" them.
