How is the youngest full professor in mathematics at Berkeley a loser in any sense if the word?

The man is clearly mentally disturbed and needed medical care, but that in no sense should dimish his academic accomplishments and raw intelligence.

Wow

Funniest comment I've ever read on HN, well done.

Tencent has the power to singlehandedly kill off Apple in China, as a Chinese, I really wish they had the balls to do it.

As a Canadian, no thank you.

I would love to hear more about your experience working with the Economist, please, do share them!

Don't waste your time with people like this. Do not acknowledge them.

Westerners like you is why we support our government.

Hi there, Chinese here. Perhaps you would be interested in learning about East Turkestan, or as we like to call it "XinJiang", or perhaps South Mongolia, or "Inner Mongolia".

Calling us out on Tibet is nice and all, but it does get so very boring.

If you are a CCP employee, please contact me to give me my 5角, cheers!

Too bad you didn't use the word Machine learning in the title OP, bad marketing I suppose.

If you don't mind sharing, what school are you going to, and what is the area (the more details the better is good)of your research?

I was offered a coop position at the Singapore Genomics Institute this summer, but I turned it down because the pay was truly terrible. I would've been paid 1500 Sinagpore dollars a month IF I was able to successfully apply for the A-star scholarship, otherwise it would've been only 1000. I was seriously consider taking the offer, because I believe the experience would've been very rewarding, especially since I don't know a lick of biology, and was hired because of my quantatitve toolkit and modelling experiences, but declined when I found out they don't even pay for the plane ticket.

X220, X230 are made by Lenovo.

Hi Alex, I had a chance to talk with Hassan Bhatti last week about some of the problems being worked on at Iris. I asked him about how Iris plans to provide solutions to the wide range of applications that an industrial drone can contribute to, and he mentioned building a modular platform that can be modified to suit the unique needs of the different applications.

With DJI currently offering a general purpose flying platform (Matrice 600) in addition to a highly specialised agricultural drone, I am wondering if you can provide some more insights into the pros and cons of developing a modular platform, give some examples on the different kind of modifications that can be made, and whether there is plans down the road to develop more specialised drones for specific applications.

Oh, and tell him Jimmy said hi when he gets there today :)
