Who on HN is taking one or more of these courses?

I signed on for Daphne Koller's Probabilistic Graphical Models and Geoff Hinton's Neural Networks courses. PGM is supposed to be really tough. I am planning to take a couple of months off from work.

This new world, where you can learn for free from the experts, is a dream come true.

I am thinking of blogging my progress (or lack of it, as the case maybe!)
Completely trashing the victim without taking the time to read anything about who he is—so that you might formulate a real opinion instead of a generic flamewar—could pretty easily be construed as "quick to take sides".

"My comments had to do with manners and common sense."
And still they are severely lacking in both.
Why, please reread what I said. I said I personaly won't as a rule of thumb and not as a clear definatly not.

I also said it was your choice, use it wisely.
I'm surprised more people in Washington don't see this as a parallel to the rising influence of the mob when alcohol prohibition happened. There are probably no wiser words than "those who don't learn from history, are doomed to repeat it".
Out of curiosity, do your fellow countrymen not know that foreigners may not be aware of this cultural norm, or is it that they're indifferent?
Wow to accept that anytime someone says UFO they actually mean alien spacecraft is ridiculous. Do you think that military testing, misinformation, hallucinations, psychological projections and t.v entertainment do not exist?

> he's already lost ground to SPDY just because they've shipped code.

Is SPDY good enough now and fixable enough in the future to leverage this gained ground?

As more and more people deploy SPDY, they will understand its problems and there will almost no chances to change it, differently from what Google did at the beginning (they have gone through 1 big change and many small changes in the protocol). When the authors of the main servers (varnish, apache, nginx) will start feeling its limits, will they have to keep it around just for sake of compatibility?

Please note that SPDY on the server is not a requirement, just an opportunity. Nothing will change for your users if you want to remove support for SPDY in your server after you deployed it and used it for some time. There are no "http+spdy://example.org" URL around, so supporting HTTP only will always be sufficient. Maybe not as much performant as SPDY but 100% supported.
> (...) the colors are different: the flashy red/yellow has been replaced by a classy green/black two years ago.

I believe it's the same case pretty much in whole Europe. In all countries I've been to for the last two years or so (Poland, Czech Rep., Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland), the McD branding involved dark green background rather than vivid red one.

> Food is quite tasty, meat is fairly good (...)

That's generally correct, too. I have no idea about U.S. but here it seems that most of the shady reputation fast food gets is not because of the quality of ingredients, but the way they are processed to make the meals, i.e. almost exclusively fried with lots of added fat.
Patarsort - Yahoo Mail
Yep. Had knee surgery recently and they gave me something that basically turned off the nerves in my leg. The brace they put on it afterwards trapped the skin near my backside and caused a huge welt which I couldn't feel.

My God it hurt next day though.

EDIT: Thinking about it - I actually saw that the skin was trapped but didn't do anything about it because I couldn't feel it. Even though I knew I was on painkillers. It must be difficult to learn to respond to possible dangers without the pain motivator.
Does anyone know how they analyze the apps to gather these statistics? I guess it's not trivial as it even works for obfuscated (proguard-ed) APKs and their database of libraries is quite comprehensive. Does this use some byte code fingerprinting or is their an easier way?
Elop scrapped everything Nokia had dumped years of R&D into and turned the company into Microsoft's (Elop's former employer) puppet. Nokia could have made an instant comeback if they had just built a few semi-decent Android phones, but they are now locked in to Windows. Elop's case is atypical.
Based on that extensive (NYT?) article from a few weeks ago, it doesn't look like Mexico will ever be able to pull itself out of this mess. The article suggested that most of the govt and police force was either in bed with the various cartels, or too terrified of them in order to do anything about it. It's a very lucrative arrangement for everybody but the poor bystanders who might become civilian casualties in the endless turf wars.

It feels like the only way to fix this is to tweak the "demand" variable, perhaps through legalization.
I signed up for 'Software Engineering for SaaS' and going to take more programming courses when i have more time...
its really amazing, the courses are so much butter than at my university...
A cloud business
I took the Machine Learning course by Andrew Ng some time ago. And it was a really great experience.

The lessons are interesting, and I really like their concept of quizzes in the middle of the lessons. They just show the question on the video, he explains it, and they stop the video and you can choose which one is right, or type in the number.

The homework is also well done and enhances the knowledge from the course. I had a lot of fun doing the lectures each and every week. You probably want to put aside a set day and time when you will do it, though, or else it is easy to do other things and "do the lectures later".

If they continue like this, there is soon no reason to go to a university anymore. :) (which is a catch-22 since the lecturers are payed by universities...)
It may be counter-intuitive, but with the right cyphers, the crypto costs of SSL and SPDY are negligible.
Ask HN: Web development job in Barcelona
Reading a post from a fellow user, I've decided to ask this anonymously.
I'm looking for a change in my career as a web developer. I reside in Barcelona (Spain).

The problem with my current job is that the company is too large to change quickly and I see technology evolving outside while we are stuck to old stuff and innovation is rara avis.

I have 6+ years of experience in LAMP environment with large websites (+500M page views a month). Although specialized in PHP and MySQL I manage myself in C and Java and don't mind to pick up a new language.

Do you know any company in Barcelona that could offer a challenge and a competitive salary? I'd appreciate any kind of recommendation.

Contact me through this post or at: developerlookingbcn@gmail.com

Cheers.
Timeliness and relevance? Personally I find it to be neither.

It is my impression that they are a bit disingenuous, and actively using HN for promotion, playing the 'we're a startup' card as hard as they can. It might have been the "groupon is evil" post they made that gave me the sour taste, which had very few interesting points, and if nothing else, was just link baiting.

This was the post:

I think it's just as likely to be naïveté; we'll
see. Infants can be really tough on moms for the first three to six months, especially if breast feeding is involved. If she chooses to do formula and hires a night nanny, things will be easier, but IQ and baby bonding are more at risk.
Your post is nonsense. There is no excuse, I repeat, ABSOLUTELY no excuse for ripping up an official document.
And excusing this bevaviour is very suspicious to me. Then, obviously you don't understand mafia as a common term, France is FULL of organized crime. There are attacks with RPGs on money transporters at the Swiss border every week. As you lack this kind of information, maybe this link will help you: http://193.252.228.130/personnes1.asp?T=R&P=1
Btw, those people who don't want to appear on pictures are migrants from northern Africa too, not because they are illegal but because of their superstition. Maybe your post is a bit too political correct because you describe the French as backwards people which they aren't.
T-Mobile Announces Samsung Galaxy Note
As a fellow Frenchman I can confirm everything bambax said!

Maybe one other explanation for this incident is the amount of hidden camera documentaries airing on national TV recently. I can imagine these security agent being briefed to avoid at all costs having another Super Size Me shot at their location.
>> 2. It also helps to be cheerfully unembarrassed about taking the lead in organizing groups to do stuff. People are often secretly grateful to be able to follow someone else. They'll often reject you. They'll say yes but then flake out on you. You'll feel mortified; you'll be certain that everyone else thinks you're a dork. That's OK; keep at it. (This is good practice for customer development and sales work, come to think of it.)

This is exceptionally true. I moved from Boston to Beijing a few years ago (and in with my girlfriend at the same time) and essentially had 0 friends for about six months. I'm not naturally very social, so of course, I became extremely depressed.

At some point, though, I got through it and realized that I needed to meet more people. I started a "Beijing Coworking" email list for anyone who was working on a startup or freelancing to meet in coffee shops every day. I literally planned out which restaurant I would be in every day for a week every sunday and emailed it out to 100+ people. Only 3-4 people came regularly, but some of them are now among my closest friends.

I also learned from one of them how to turn acquaintances into friends. She had an email list of cool people she knew, and would schedule random events a few times a week. She didn't care at all if people came or not.

She's since moved away, but now every time I meet someone, I add them to my contacts and invite the whole set of Beijing contacts out whenever I go to a concert or out to eat, etc. People who don't come to anything in the first three months get dropped, but even so, just losing the embarrassment of inviting people means I naturally give them a few more chances to become a friend.
I'm signed up for that particular class and I've been wondering how it was going to go.

The workload looks reasonably significant, which I'm happy about. I'm a little skeptical of peer grading of essays, but it's something they've got to figure out for the future.

Every class I've done so far has had a tiny minority of forum whining about grades. I'm expecting it to be notably higher in this class, but we'll see how it goes...
I've been watching the lectures for the same course. Having them split into short self-contained videos (~5-15mins) has made it very easy to fit in around university and a toddler.

For example, whenever I do the washing up I put my tablet on the windowsill and watch a video. I've also been watching them instead of browsing the web as a more structured break when studying. The fixed length of a video makes it much easier to be disciplined with the length of my breaks. The subject matter is different enough and presented in such a digestible way that it really is a good break.
I recall him mentioning he's on an O-1 Visa. I assume having a published book, many other projects presented as technical publications, and lots of high profile people ready to vouch for his talent, helped overcome his lack of academic qualifications.

The key difference with IPv6 is that SPDY is opaque to routers and only needs changes at the endpoints. IPv6 has the chicken-and-egg problem that it only becomes usable once everyone (hosters, ISPs, core networks, home networks, web frameworks, client devices) has deployed it, and most of those actors don't bother with things that bring no immediate benefit.
"the courses are so much butter than at my university"

That's the real challenge to all the middle-of-the-road schools out there. Now they can be directly compared to the best.

Funny, I walked away from Flash/Flex with the exact opposite impression. Data binding is good in theory but horribly slow in practice - any time something changes it dispatches a gazillion change events to be processed, and debugging problems with bindings can involve going really deep down the rabbit hole...

It's one of those things that seems nifty from a developer convenience point-of-view but results in poor user experience - pretty much every Flex app I've seen that made heavy use of bindings ran horribly slowly.
The funny thing with these kinds of "rules" / customs is that you internalize them; I can't even imagine myself taking pictures in the subway...

I suppose a UK/US person would never consider it apporpriate to take photos in a bathroom for example.
You do know that when IPv6 roll-out was initially contemplated, it would happen on IPv4-convertible addresses only, until everybody had converted. That would have allowed seamless IPv6/IPv4 interop and made migration a breeze. Lacking any "must have" features, nobody could see a reason to bother. Now we have to do the migration without the benefit of seamless conversion.

Indeed by 2007 I had more or less gotten rid of Word and gone to LaTeX. I haven't looked back since. It may not be for everybody but it is wonderful as a document generation environment.

I recently switched to LateX Beamer for my presentations, and all I can say is "Wow." There is no easier way to create better looking presentations than that.

(Actually, in all honesty, my LaTeX experience has changed the way I have used Word in those few cases I have had to use it, for example a contract writing technical documentation for Microsoft. I think every Word user should give LaTeX a try for a while. If you go back to using Word or similar, you can but your approach to documents will be much better.)

In principle you could already achieve that by binding a session (and corresponding cookie) to the client's IP address. No big deal.

Problem you may have is that some clients are behind proxy farms and can arrive with different source IP addresses within the scope of a single session.

If you do not bind the 'server-assigned-per-connection ID' to an IP address they become just as 'leakable' as a session cookie.
can learn for free from the experts, is a dream come true.

I'm not sure that's what they do though. Learning "from the experts" means they are there to help you, understand where you're coming from, and correct you along the way. Just watching a video of someone with recorded slides is something we could have done 20 years ago.

I was excited about the PGM class, but my interest dropped after the first few videos (100% comic sans slides, poor video quality, poor audio quality).

Just because you are an expert in some field has zero bearing on your ability to teach or convey information. I'm not sure a "let's imitate college lecture formats" site founded by smart people understands that. They fall into the trap of "smart people can do EVERYTHING!" There are a lot of very smart people who have negative presentation skills. There are a lot of very smart people who have excellent presentation skills too.

Solution: have the smart people write the script, but have people excited about presenting show it to the world.
My biggest hope out of all of this is that Nvidia will get its act together and release proper drivers for Linux now. I honestly don't care all that much about games except that they might force Nvidia to actually care about Linux.
Hmm. That would indeed be an advantage of a new mechanism.

What I meant about JavaScript is that a server side cookie->session bridge for legacy code would not work in general because corresponding client side code sometimes expects to be able to see the cookies in document.cookie.
I had read this story a couple years back and the way Steven Pete remembers Child Protective Services is a bit different from how his mum remembers it:

> Once, CPS told the Petes they wanted to remove Steven, then a toddler,
> for two months of observation at a Seattle hospital.
>
> "I said to them, 'OK, but will somebody be watching him 24 hours a
> day?' They said, 'Oh yes.' "
>
> In the hospital, "He broke his foot, and they didn't discover it until
> a day and half later. They had no idea when or how it happened. Child
> Services said they realized what we were going through. They worked
> with us on it. They were really nice."

There's other stuff -- another sufferer and a lot more details -- in the article I'd read: http://tdn.com/lifestyles/article_e230b156-b22e-11df-93d9-00...

Anyway, this community, I think, cares a lot about pushing yourself to succeed, but knows the price of burnout that can be associated with that. These people just have this physically: rather than some sort of abstract 'laziness' we normally have 'pain' which slows us down, and while pushing past a little pain is usually good -- it gets you running and developing muscle -- there is serious pain which tells you 'something is wrong, you're about to injure yourself' which you fortunately can't easily push past. Well, these guys can, and it leads to real injury. There's a deep connection here somewhere between the mental fatigue and physical fatigues.

Yeah, for heavy-duty writing, there is nothing that competes with LaTeX out there.

I am starting to understand that this is the true for designing presentations too. I can't imagine getting Powerpoint to do the things that Beamer does so easily.
No, they are not. For one thing you have to terminate all your SSL on your loadbalancer in order to distribute the traffic. That makes SPDY a no-go for web-hotels/web-hosting where each customer has their own certificate.

Second, there are perfectly valid legally mandated circumstances which forbid end-to-end privacy, from children in schools to inmates in jail and patients in psych. hospitals, not to mention corporate firewalls and the monster that looks out for classified docs not leaking out of CIA.
I agree completely. I used to get excited when I saw a new framework or language out and would always download it, play with it, etc. Now I just think "another one? I hope I don't have to learn that one day."

Maybe I just need a break to get my enthusiasm back. But it's going to have to be a lot longer than two weeks. It's a shame, because I worked really hard to get into the software industry in the first place.

I just hope they release tarballs of executables or something, because targetting Ubuntu and Ubuntu alone is quite bad. They might say "We'll support other distributions in the future". Yeah, I know that, you will support Fedora.

If you released tarballs (or even open sourced Steam and all your games {just kidding}), it would work, out of the box, on every single distribution.

Haha indeed - but that's not what I really mean :D.

Netscape was the trigger for a great deal of what you see around you on the Internet today. Obviously, that doesn't mean that if they didn't exist - no one would've done it.

But my point is this: for the first guy to IPO into what started the craze - he didn't get out with too much.

Indeed, if you were to just look at Broadcast.com, which sold for ~$5 billion at the height of the dot com boom, Mark Cuban pulled ~$2 billion for something I think was quietly killed shortly thereafter (i.e. no real impact).
