Here's another theory. Coffee makes you move more. Moving is healthy. Think of how coffee gets people off their desks to get it and also because of the caffeine and the need to urinate after. Its unlike other drinks as people don't carry it in bottles, it requires more movement. Maybe the sedentary lifestyle is what's killing people.

Gaming is also behind the rise of GPUs and companies like Nvidia, long before Deep Learning became a thing.

What kind of experience are you looking for a software developing position? Any internships opportunities for a CS indergrad with a statistics minor?

What kind of software engineers are they hiring? I'm senior CS student and want to work in this space (crypto). Could you recommend any subject to dive into?

Sometimes all it takes is a good family. You take good care of a kid and they can achieve miracles.

It's wise to appreciate those people in your family who program and give them credit, just for the fact that they exposed you to programming. I know many who grew up with parents which can't even read, let alone have more than one member in the family with a certain level of education. That said, keep up the good work!

Maybe someone should start a new social network just for college students again as facebook seems to have shifted focus from that specific demographic. The twist could be on allowing a hybrid approach where you can have the choice of anonymous posting and the exclusivity of verified accounts.

What is the worst case legal costs for a green card through H1-B ?

The fifth level is becoming the joke.

I always thought correlation was transitive.Isn't it? It is surely reflexive but I might have to go back and study more about those properties.

Who in their right mind would argue that facebook is acting in the public interest?

The difference I see, is that in the OP game every player is guaranteed to give out $1 at each step, while in the video, a player is chosen at random to give out $1. I don't know how this might change the long-term distribution.

I always read "Search and Rescue" as a euphemism for police and military.

> we'll simply just write 'show me a line graph'

How about we just 'say' it ? At one hackathon, I had the idea of making an Alexa skill that would translate simple voice commands like 'graph column A' into matplotlib functions and then show the graphs. Teammates weren't too excited about spreadsheets though.

Why the extras?

I know this might be an unpopular opinion here, but there are so many unspoken assumptions and generalizations in a lot of these discussions. As someone from a developing country who has witnessed the rise of extremism and civil unrest there are some beliefs that many times go unquestioned which are not necessarily true:

- Men and women can and should fulfill the same roles in society, a perfect society is one where we have a 50/50 ratio in everything.

- There is nothing we can do about culture/religion, if anything, it is an insignificant factor.

- Economic models work the same everywhere.

- As long as things are relatively stable, they will remain stable, provided we make small incremental improvements.

- Politics still has the same power to change society as it did in the past, and politicians know what they are doing.

- We understand the effects of technology.

just my 50 ¢.

I thought it was a joke about unreal expectations.

I thought it was a dilbert style joke about the unreal expectations of people who are not software engineers.

I'm not sure if this is good or bad news. I wonder what google motives are and how they will influence kaggle if this becomes reality.

Yes, it self corrects but not in a smooth and stable way.

The key word here is "for me". As a previous commenter pointed out, your experience seems to be an outlier that is the result on many factors (innate talent, country of origin, socio-economic status, upbringing, luck, etc...).

Others (a majority apparently) do not really have the choice, the risk (of ditching uni) is too much for them to take and there is considerable pressure in some societies on young people to go to college to prove their "worthiness". Hence the fuss.

I wish I could just stay at home, learn scala and start trading crypto, but I won't have any safety net to rely on in case of failure, specially where I come from (developing african country).

>The signal is going to look the same everytime.

What makes you think that it will look the same? I don't think it is that deterministic to be practical. Even so, would it generalize to different people?

Many will want to raise a family, but that might be countered by the fact that more and more are unable to.

I predict that it will.

Thinking on a global scale is the literal opposite of short-sightedness.

Well some might consider their children as "skin in the game" but still. As far as I am concerned having children is also a luxury. At least it should be considered so, from my moral perspective.

That seen reminded me of inglorious bastards beginning scene. It even has the same end where the girl runs away from the house while someone is trying to shoot at her.
