Long and tedious is the definition of an unsuitable human mental process.

Your observations are correct. Its the latter.

I guess I meant: what value does it provide which is not provided by IDEA IDE?

Any ideas on incorporating this into IDEA workflow? I feel like, IntelliJ has all the features already minus traversing the graph structure of a code.

You can say that about everything.

"But X is not hard. It's just number theory" - while X is Fermat's Last Theorem

Probably some copyright issues.

I think most programmers nowadays face no interesting problems to solve. They crave for a mental challenge, but instead of looking for a job that requires solving hard engineering problems, they believe they can satisfy their mental needs with coding in “somewhat” hard language.

Why so?

Has anybody on HN worked with him and could say a little bit more about his individual contributions and management style?

You must be polish.

Doesn’t a mess come from mafia controlling dumpster companies or something like that? By the way, I love this place called pizzeria da Michele. Best pizza in the world.

Can I patent open/read/write/close methods? I might have an idea for the greatest troll in modern era.

So the cool stuff about Turing machines is that if you get them, then you get a theoretical model of computation. And based on this knowledge you can really understand some problems, say is P = NP? Or maybe you encounter some problem at work and you cannot find an efficient algorithm to it, so you might try to prove that the thing you are working on is NP-hard (making it non trivially solvable in human words).

> it randomly returns tons of pornography for innocuous searches like "filled torus"

so I tried to search for that one, disabled safe searching and I'm coming back disappointed (no porn)

Both languages are Turing complete so their language of choice should be transparent to anyone taking the course.

Agreed 100%. There’s so much domain knowledge in a lot of systems that run in production for a couple of years that the disappearance of the entire team means basically a full rewrite.

I don’t think any managed AWS service scales well for any bigger enterprise which have to handle a decent amount of traffic. Once you reach certain threshold you soon hit some throttling and limits BS and AWS solution is just to throw more money at them.

Isn’t being a vet in Germany more lucrative than being a software engineer there?

So I’m confused about the results. Is the engine faster because of rust or because of improvements to the algorithm?

I was being bootstrapped into the new project (pretty big distributed system) for 6 months since I went on call. But then my debugging skills skyrocketed, and I know it’s a little inconvenient to wake up at 5 am because of pager duty sad trombone sound, but I know it’s an investment on my part to become a better distributed systems engineer.

I second this.

The harsh truth of working at Google is that in the end you are moving protobufs from one place to another. They have the most talented people in the world but those people still have to do some boring engineering work.

Are they focused strictly on nutrition or do they also track more exotic research - for example CRISPR? It’s hard to tell from their website.

Isn’t distribution of content is like just posting what you wrote on reddit or on HN nowadays?

I see some interesting thoughts here. I agree that pretending to have magic powers is not a good way to perform. That being said, I think the concept of doing tricks so powerful that audience has no explanation other than believing in magic is completely orthogonal to an idea that you are supposed to brag about having paranormal abilities.

I think the art of magic is ought to be performed live. There some guys who got it right on the TV, for instance Copperfield. The problem with YouTube on the other hand, is that you can replay the video anytime, so this kills misdirection entirely.

The way I get around this issue in my promotional materials is that I basically only show people’s reactions to my effects, so that people see what they buy. Entertainment, not tricks to figure out.

On a side note, I love how Derren Brown performs. He says up front, he has no psychic powers but provides some basic pseudoscience explanation to his audience which is a trick on its own!

I’ve been doing magic half professionally on and off for almost a decade now. Basically, I don’t do card tricks anymore and the reason is simple - if you were to do real magic, would you do it with playing cards?

On a side note, revealed card tricks on YouTube were my pain in the butt for a long time, but I don’t care anymore.

You must be doing something wrong. In a company I work for, we clearly have separated microservices by bounded context, thus making them completely decoupled.

That’s a good point. Now, how do you find interesting job which involves computer science skills?

I’m waiting for 1factor apps.

The whole point of DDG is that they don’t personalize results.
