Photon Mapping might be biased, but it's extremely easy to make it consistent by using the method outlined by Knaus and Zwicker [1]. Using that method photon mapping will converge to the right result. Even without progressive photon mapping you can choose a photon radius that won't cause visible errors.

> You can also compare yourself to other developers, aka a leaderboard.

That's a feature with negative value. Top developers, at least in a business context, are those that help business realize their goals for their web product. One way top developers do this is to find solutions that involve writing less code, since code is a liability.
In other news, Bubba's Seafood Restaurant in Kalamazoo today announced that it will be complying with all food safety regulations, including the Kalamazoo County Sanitary Code.

Bubba Smith, proprietor, explained his company's innovative decision to follow the law. "If you ordered a shrimp cocktail at Bubba's for your parent or grandparent, these are precious people. You'd want to know that the food was being prepared properly and that the kitchen staff wasn't exposing your family to trace amounts of fecal matter because they didn't wash their hands properly."

Smith says he was also inspired by startups in the San Francisco Bay Area, which have been trailblazers in abiding by long-standing state, local and federal laws that have traditionally been ignored by less innovative companies. "These startups really show that it pays to do the right thing right from the beginning and not just to do it because of the threat of fines and lawsuits."
I think Unity shows that there is a place for an easy to use cross platform 3d engine.

As someone who recently interviewed for a major internet company, I can report that every interview I took included the requirement for me to write code (real code, with semicolons) on the white board, in front of the interviewers. Every coding problem involved some degree of "maths" problem solving as well. I guess the question is, since 2013, how much has this filtered down into the startup scene. That I cannot report.
Well, actually, we do.

Aptitude testing shows[1] that while females tend to cluster more towards the average, male populations produce more outliers. There are both more male geniuses and male imbeciles than their female counterparts.

[1] for example http://www.aei.org/publication/chart-of-the-day-scottish-iq-...

This is the product of the different evolutionary strategy for males and females, the males being high risk/high reward, the females being conservative/average. I don't have a citation for that.

"""an editor that forces me to consciously think about text operations"""

"""I say this as a person that knows vim well."""

These two phrases don't go together.

Would you say you knew how to play a piano well if you were still consciously thinking about where each note was?

If you don't use vim to the level that it's subconscious and "in your fingers" it might not seem all that useful...

Fwiw "ag" and the various plugins around it make your use case pretty trivial.
Interested to see changes around how quickly the "regulatory and logistical differences" can be overcome specifically in the biotech industry.
The problem with ES6 is that everyone has 2 features they like in it.

The only thing that matters in my opinion is generators and (in ES7), async/await. This is a shift we've been seeing in many languages and I think actually tangibly solves a real problem in a transformative way. By that I mean, people will actually think about problems differently. Especially in JavaScript where everything is asynchronous, you need first class support of asynchronocity.

There are a bunch of feature I "like" in ES6 but are ultimately useless in my opinion. Arrow functions are great, but could 1) be implemented in a transpolar, and 2) unfortunately behave different with regard to this and thus make the language even harder to understand (why did all my code break when I switched out the arrow function for a normal inline function?).

Classes are horrible in my opinion, especially if they start inspiring people to use instanceof, which is a broken feature in Javascript (and hence why we need things like Array.isArray). Due to the fact that in JavaScript you will often have code from different contexts, you can't rely on these checks, and the old-style JS programming encourages you to use feature detection, whereas now you will think you can do something like this. The species properties (so map returns the right thing when you subclass Array for example), is even more complex. The fact that I can subclass Function is a bit absurd. The fact that subclassing Object, vs subclassing null, vs no subclass will be a lot of fun to understand.

Let scope is fine I guess, I honestly never thought this was a big deal (coming from C and having to make the switch). It was of course implemented with TDZ which makes it incredibly hard to write in a transpiler, so now you have situations where the transpired code will work but once real let is added your code will break.
Depends on the company. :)

Either way, the desire to hone the technical skills is in the right place.

I'm sure you do understand, but it just doesn't come across from your answer. From the perspective of people not quite as fortunate as yourself:

The quote wouldn't be "we'll all have our government mandated NutriSludge dispensed twice a day so we can all stop worrying about cooking and work harder".

It'll be, "before the government started helping, we lived off food stamps and food banks, but it was never enough. You always see those ads on TV, how growing children need their milk, and it would make me cry. My children deserved better, but I just wasn't able to provide it for them. They were always cold and getting sick. There was one winter my son couldn't go to school because it was too cold for him to leave his bed. Now that we get NutriSludge all three of them are looking healthier, I can't believe my youngest is good at sports. I've even been able to spend more time on myself, and I can work harder! I've actually been able to hold down this job. My kids even have the energy to look into part time jobs. I'm so happy the government is finally helping. I don't even like thinking about those times anymore."
Insikt (pronounced “in-seekt”) is a white label loan origination and investing platform that enables any brand to lend to its customers and any accredited investor to invest in consumer loan portfolios.

Insikt was born out of our realization that banks will not be the lenders of tomorrow – brands will. Traditional banks, saddled with new rules and regulation, are no longer in the business of taking risk and making loans and cannot be relied on to deliver credit access and opportunity to the masses. Instead, tomorrow’s lenders will be media companies, retailers and prominent brands that have deep relationships with their customers and want to step in to help their customers get a fair loan. But, to do it right, they need scoring, servicing, technology and capital — all of which are expensive and difficult to build. So, why build it if you don’t have to? This is the future of lending. Any brand or company can be a lender. We’ve launched “Lending as a Service” (LaaS) to power this transformation.

We are bringing together the best and brightest to solve real problems in the financial industry. We are looking for diverse talent across many different domains including designers, front end and back end development, product management, analytics and data science, credit, operations, and capital markets.We want passionate, fun-loving people who can contribute positively to our company and our culture. Let us know if this sounds like you.

As far as I'm aware most thermostats don't really factor in humidity which has a big factor on my comfort. When I'm at home on a relatively mild summer day, my house actually feels uncomfortably warm. When it's blisteringly hot outside my AC goes into overdrive and turns my place into an icebox - even though the temperature is always set the same at 72.
Not sure about China, but in Bangladesh where most clothes are made, it is dire. Building collapses, fires, environmental pollution (leather processing), worker injuries. Really bad.

> Too high-level, too JavaScript-centric. It’s going to take programs encoded as Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs) as input, which seems quite wrong. GCC, clang, and other real-world compilers usually generate Control Flow Graphs (CFGs) at the output stage, not ASTs. Forcing compilers to convert CFGs back into ASTs seems silly.

An AST is used because it allows significantly smaller download sizes, which is quite important on the web, more details here:

https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/blob/master/AstSemanti...

WebAssembly is in a different situation than gcc, clang, etc. It makes sense for LLVM IR, for example, to have a CFG, as it is a compiler IR meant for optimization. But WebAssembly binaries are meant to be distributed over the web and instantiated as quickly as possible.

> This decision was clearly made to try and simplify the job of WebAssembly VM implementers, at the expense of everyone else.

I don't think that is the reason at all. In fact it adds work for those people to handle an AST. But the work is justified by the startup speed benefits that it brings to the web platform.
I'm pretty sure what you're trying to do is not allowed under Section 1.3 of the AWS Promo Credit agreement. Personally, I would be wary accepting "free" credit that I may end up being on the hook for.

Installing a program is not too many hoops. You have to setup a computer for ruby too and the kids aren't doing that part.
Have you heard the term "Smart grid?" Being able to postpone some types of usage (water heating, etc) and to quickly ramp down generation based on demand will reduce the amount of rejected energy.

I'm sure the File Transfer Protocol can handle 20 petabyte file transfers. They're probably in 200GB tarballs or something most file systems can work with.

But even if you have 1 gigabyte per second upload and download, you might not want to wait the 2 years for the file transfer.

>I have not set foot in a grocery store in years. Nevermore will I bumble through endless confusing aisles like a pack-donkey searching for feed while the smell of rotting flesh fills my nostrils and fluorescent lights sear my eyeballs and sappy love songs torture my ears. Grocery shopping is a multisensory living nightmare. There are services that will make someone else do it for me but I cannot in good conscience force a fellow soul through this gauntlet.

>I buy my staple food online like a civilized person.

I'm not sure if going to the grocery store could ever be described as a multisensory living nightmare.

> I think it was a bit presumptuous for the architect to assume I wanted a kitchen with my apartment and make me pay for it. My home is a place of peace. I don’t want to live with red hot heating elements and razor sharp knives. That sounds like a torture chamber. However, it’s not a total loss. I was able to use the cabinets to store part of my book collection.

Or a kitchen as a torture chamber. This guy seems kinda nutty.
