Actually, the stock price is being majorly affected today! YHOO usually tracks BABA quite precisely, and BABA was up big today (+3.5%). This usually means that YHOO would be up around 2%, which equates to nearly $1.00 in upside. Instead it was flat today.

To make matters worse, YHOO has actually fallen off quite a bit since BABA reached $105/share 1.5 weeks ago, and YHOO corresponded with a high of around $45. If you do the math, with BABA currently nearing $110, YHOO should actually be just north of $46.

tl;dr YHOO shares are actually suffering, but it's harder to see if you're not familiar with the underlying mechanisms at play.
Damn. Sounds like the smartest students would go to community college first. The degree you get after transfer is the same regardless. You just have to make sure those credits transfer -- probably the biggest concern. Otherwise you're just paying a premium and repeating courses. Did yours transfer?
Yes and no. The AMP project is by Google, but several of the big companies are playing in this space. Eventually they don't mind if some of the practices become W3C standards and the project is somewhat open being on GitHub for people to contribute to

Google has AMP
Facebook has Instant Articles
Apple has the Apple News Format

So AMP is Google's version, which is really stripped down HTML to make a page load faster. (Minimize requests, don't block things, etc)

The whole project is open and on GitHub. The easiest example I know off the top of my head is to replace www with amp on Guardian pages. For example https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/22/canada-childre... shows how an article differs slightly than its non-AMPed version

Evolution is blindly randomized mutations except passed through a fitness function.

> most type systems add much more overhead to development than agility

I think this is true to a certain extent, but with a language like JS, there is a lot more composition of generics than there is inheritance. I see:

add5toStuff<T extends {stuff: number}>(item: T): T;

drastically more than:

class X {}
class Y extends X {}
class Z extends Y {}

The latter is always a nightmare of fighting the compiler. The former is a breeze to deal with. Your type casting will be limited almost completely to IO.

Nope, they ban GMOs. And nothing ridiculous about it either.

Even if fears are wrong, GMOs are used to create bottom of the barrel, mass market consumption food.

They are for crops to be yield faster, fend against diseases etc, become bigger, and general give cheaper mass quantities -- that is, meant for the same kind of producers that pile in pesticides, hormones, etc, and create stuff to look big and shiny (sometimes due to added food colouring) on supermarket shelves -- not exactly known for their carefully produced fruits and vegetables.

Rooting for GMOs is like cheering because one eats fast food, or smokes cigarettes, just because there's food science involved in making them more addictive...

The amount of fuel these ships burn is absolutely nuts, as much as 200-300 tons per day, approximately 65,000 to 95,000 gallons of the stuff, but the size of the ships is even more stupidly crazy, upwards of 150,000 tons, that they're actually quite efficient when you do the math.

It probably takes 5,000 trucks to carry the containers stacked on one of the larger cargo ships and they burn way more than 19 gallons of fuel per day.

Sure, humans can learn indirectly from books and lectures. But that's very different than a teacher putting all of their knowledge into a handcrafted xml file and downloading it into your brain.

Take a look at the primary algorithms used commonly in AI today - nothing exceeds high school level math.

I posted about this earlier today but ML really should be demystified. You can write a lot of commonly used algorithms in 100 lines or fewer. The math is not complex. If you can get past the notation and buzzwords like "deep learning" (it's an artificial neural network, itself a grandiose term) you'll see it's not as daunting as most think.

The reality is most "data scientists" will be working on implementation rather than creation. They'll be working on data sets and error analysis, not creating the next buzzword-laden algorithm.
I'm so glad someone finally understands this and that this article has been written. Starting a business is about creating value for others - that's the essence of it - not indulging your "passions". Passions are for your free time.

Of course there will be more packaged applications, but I don't see them being something as low level as a CNN. More like applications of them such as speech recognition, translation, motion control, etc. Things that you can actually treat as a black box and integrate them into a system.

Bummer. I did not actually finish my degree and as a result ended up working at a shitty, tiny company that paid at the start < 1/4 of what recent CS grads are getting these days (I was just happy to get a job that involved programming at the time).

Fortunately the problem that the company was trying to solve was actually a bit technically challenging (though quite boring from a user facing perspective) and I was able to jump to a better startup and then a better one because I had good experience.

I've only had three jobs since college, but the ability to bring value on the very first day in all three jobs has given me a great deal of credibility, even without a CS degree, and now I'm making quite a bit more than a recent CS grad, though it took me a while to get there (I'm in my early thirties).

One counterintuitive observation about introducing stricter type checking into an existing codebase is that it rarely finds bugs. Why? Because the existing codebase typically "already works", in that issues that the type checker might have found were already discovered through automated (or manual!) testing.

The real value of more strict type checking is when writing new code -- you won't need to spend as much time discovering bugs in development or writing tests for issues the compiler is catching.
Not related, but I hate this unit. Can't we just talk about Joules?
All of my credits transferred. I went to university in the same state as the community college, and the community college specifically had it as a goal that everything should transfer. I'd recommend talking to advisors at both the community college and your planned university to confirm.

One other excellent property my community college (https://www.pcc.edu/) had: because they also catered to high-school-completion students, and students transferring in with gaps or inconsistencies in their knowledge, they had a placement exam for math and English as part of the application process. That exam could place you anywhere from "you need a few years of remedial classes" to "you can go directly to second-year classes".
Here [0] is a concrete example of using a formal verification system ontop of C (and the blog contains many other examples) along with an excellent dialog around the example.

First a caveat, this formal verification system is rather simple, and only proves code within the domain of the C standard. Using such a system with a buggy C compiler (pretty much all of them) or the result on subtly incorrect hardware (like most modern hardware) will still allow for the formal verification to be wrong. But it is an order of magnitude better than writing out pre-post conditions in comments, fuzzing, or automated tests. And slightly better than pure functions:

* Pre-post conditions are code and actually enforced at compile time.

* All possible cases are tested for correct behavior, no need to stochastically test ranges (fuzzing) when the entire range is proven or specific test cases (unit tests) when every corner case has been proven.

* Pure functions can't deal with state. Even monads still require a trap door, this system can still prove through those trap doors rather effectively.

Now for the example in question:

Note how the formal verification system points out a problem when the pointers match, could a linter notice that? Maybe, but probably not, at best it would be a "potential problem with equal pointers", it would have to actually understand the source code, and the intent of the programmer, like a formal verification system does, to know whether it's an actual problem. The formal verification system knows it's a problem because it deduced it from the rules of the C standard and the code.

So coding standards ("Always check for equal pointers when expecting different ones." or "Never call this function with equal pointers.") are a decent workaround. But an order of magnitude better is: "We've proven the code never violates our expectations." Accidentally violating those expectations is the purpose of the coding standards in the first place; we've fixed the root problem so the decent workaround is no longer required.

Astroturfing is a very wide category, so the differences are in the details.

As a thought experiment... let's say your pirate crew has an unloading port someplace. Why not take the ship and get going to said port? Would the crew alert the navy/coast guard? Probably.

But then what?

The navy kills the pirates and liberates the vessel... And Hanjin refuses to take it back? The navy now has the responsibility of getting it to port and unloading it, despite ports not wanting to do that?

I think that one of the interesting features with AMP to get good performance is its free ("for now"[1]) caching system.

They also mention that "Google has provided a cache that can be used by anyone at no cost, and all AMPs will be cached by the Google AMP Cache. Other companies may build their own AMP cache as well."[2], However I wasn't able to find any documentation on how could someone build its own cache, and how to configure its AMP pages to point to your own cache instead of Google's.

More generally, they're not being strategic about college. There's a lot of people who get a degree from a prestigious school because that's what's expected of them.

The strategic way to use college to start a startup would be to independently learn how to slam out CRUD web-apps, go to Stanford for a single semester, meet literally everyone you can in the CS and business departments, then drop out. You could shop around for a cheaper education, but you'd pay a lot of money and spend a lot of time for a less useful product.

> 2.) Following up on that point, I thought very few enterprise startups did YC and that YC would be weak in that category. From the stats, it seems like a majority of startups were enterprise focused! But, the standard YC terms kinda suck for enterprise startups. If your ACV is +$100k, why raise $120k for 7%?

I believe the "enterprise" number in the article includes B2B startups, not just enterprise.

That being said, it's a pretty common misconception that YC is about the money. It generally isn't! Money might be the smallest part you get for that 7%, and certainly is the most short lived, which is why in many cases even companies that are already generating revenue find it valuable to apply.

This analysis clearly doesn't explain everything. If you move bias over to 100% and run the random move simulation segregation quickly falls below 10%.
