Unless you're from a very poor country there is no excuse for not having a working keyboard.
I don't know if that was part of the test, but if it was, it's worse than the big blue chip corps asking about the number of piano tuners. Which actually can be valuable at understanding how one reasons about unknown problems/areas.
About the server being slow, well I don't know the magnitude of the slowness or the anger, but unless you're a ramen fueled startup there is no excuse for having slow machines. It's management failure. It's a waste of developer time. Instead of coding the dev is having to deal with stress inducing constant 5 second hiccups or similar things.
Put yourself in the interviewee's shoes. Do you really want to work in a company that can't conduct a proper interview and has broken/slow hardware?
And yes, I do use vim and I do like w very much.
I did a quick googling [1] and
> Our algorithm divides the problem into independent `quadrants' ...
> Our results show that our GPU implementation is up to 8x faster when operating on a large number of sequences.
It's still soul crushing. Why did our genome have to be that long :(
BTW, do you have numbers for setups with hundreds of GPUs?
I'm also left wondering about results using stochastic solutions. On how accuracy and problem size relate.

Anyway what I really wanted to say was that, for those who missed the link, this page has has a link to a meta-"awesome" list:
> Squats and deadlifts are how I broke my back
While I take care to contract abs at all times and keep a straight back during SQ, DL and MP, I have been getting some lumbar pain/discomfort. Not when I lift. But typically 1 or 2 days after.
Sleeping is not optimal either as muscles contract. As of lately I find myself sleeping on my side. I know it's the advised posture, but some years ago I could sleep (ie: eventually wake up) with my stomach down with no problems. I can still go to sleep that way, but during the sleep I end up switching position -- and I'm aware of it because I "wake up" for a brief second or so.
Anyway, do you have any tips? Do you ever get sore lumbar spine or overfall back?
Are there any worthwhile youtube videos on mindfulness meditation?
And is Vipassana meditation "better" than the other types?
I would guess the Euro would take a small hit, but bear (speculation) wouldn't have much too feed upon.
This due to the fact that (1) Greece is a small part in the Eurozone and (2) the other countries that were having problems (Portugal, Spain, Italy, Ireland) seem to have things stabilized.
SpaceX is actually 2 years older than Virgin. But SpaceX is Getting Things Done at warp speed for some years now, while Virgin Galactic keeps having multiple crashes. Despite SpaceX having a harder mission.
Is it all due to the Elon Musk effect?
What's the secret?
So only a Stripe fee, if you use Stripe.
So how does Pinterest make money on this?
I'm dumbfounded with this.
How many users did the app have?
Granted it's a more than a TODO list. But it looks like an exorbitant amount of money for it.
Right now it feels Google, Uber and Lyft will compete for the same space. Uber looks to be winning, but can it really win the race against Google.
Although to its own merit one thing comes to mind was that -- at least from PR it looks like it -- Uber is moving faster. Google which is always hiring(?) lost the chance to grab that CMU talent.
According to [1] telomere-lengthening treatments may (the author points out that this conclusion may be incorrect since the data measurement may need some changes) only give you an extra 5 years.
So research in other directions is definitely interesting.
> ssl: Remove default support for RC4 cipher suites, as they are consider too weak.
I'm not following Erlang news but was just wondering, aren't these fixes coming out way too late?
