what's the best ar framework for Android? yes I know about unity and Vuforia. I'm interested in comparisons to easyar, wikitude, etc

what percent of sub-Saharan Africa still participates in subsistence agriculture? I bet even you have a garden.

just today cleaning out my desk i found this again

http://www.math.jhu.edu/~smahanta/Teaching/Spring10/Stillwel...

>The aim of this paper is to prove the unsolvability by radicals of the quintic (in fact of the general nth degree equation for n >= 5) using just the fundamentals of groups, rings and fields from a standard first course in algebra.

essentially all of the fundamentals of galois theory in 5 short (very readable!) pages.

only if the structure encodes something. in general it doesn't

your iq probably wasn't that high to begin with since you don't know the difference between diminish and decrease

>Also, speaking personally... the sort of person who thinks it's fun to spend their time automating personal interaction is not the sort of person I want to date.

forgive me for waxing poetical but i've thought about this a lot - since i have tinder and okcupid accounts - online dating is one of the most nihilistic enterprises to come out of the digital revolution. take one of the most personally rewarding and edifying experiences and completely formalize one of the most exciting parts of it (if not the most). what becomes the point of your life???

i read a stupid platitude somewhere that you should do something that scares you every day and approaching people you're attracted to (not on the street you pua twats) is one of the few "scary" things still available to us as denizens of modernity (i'm not sailing over the ocean blue, summiting mt everest, hunting moby dick, etc.). why would you want to sidestep that.

NYC dating: water water everywhere but none that I'll drink more than a sip of in anticipation of finding a better glass. paradox of choice indeed.

yes

what part of the tech world do you live in where it's not the case that almost everyone's not a Linux ace?

>Btw, it irks me that you don't capitalize the first letter of your sentences but still properly capitalize "I".

blame my phone.

how much do you spend on food? I eat out every work day and I spend on average 5$ per meal. how much less could you possibly be spending per unit?

coincidentally enough i considered law school before i considered my ms in cs :)

people say this a lot but it's pretty hollow. if you're smart enough you can do it even if you don't like it. anecdotally I'm a fairly good dev (full stack, know several languages, several projects under my belt) and I hate it. the day I move from technical to management will be the greatest day of my life.

i submitted an ask hn and got no substantive responses so i'm asking here: if i want to build a cross-platform ar app which sdk should i use? vuforia?

>almost all signal...

this the silliest misinterpretation of Fourier analysis I've ever seen and I'm not going to try refute it except to say that with the clarity you're implying Fourier decomposition applies only to periodic signals (ie saying that a signal that has a continuous time FT "has most of its information expressed as a sine wave would be an egregious exaggeration so you must talking about series expansion and that only applies to periodic signals [and I'm at a loss for how to interpret info about chiropractors as periodic]).

there is no way that the NYC Subway's AC's dumping heat into the tunnels contributes in any meaningful way to the temperature inside the stations - the tunnel system is enormous relative to the trains. much more it's simply NYC summers are sweltering and the stations aren't well ventilated at all.

5 years isn't a recent example. my impression is that deep nets ate everyone's lunch (including svm).

>You should make sure all the offices have glass walls so you can see if someone is in their office and have an idea what they are doing.

this is silly. a person should have the freedom to relax every so often throughout the day - we're not soldiers standing watch.

>But mainly you should review all code as it's checked in for quality, and it should also give you a good idea of their productivity.

this is the correct answer

sure but then i have to keep track of upstream changes

>There is at least one genius among those 10

who?

i don't understand what you mean by "merge"?

potentially very useful; I've been committing the sin of manipulating the CRA scripts in node-modules and writing down diffs in my build docs up until now. anyone have experience with this?

what is "real computer science" in this case? automated theorem proving? that is decidedly a graduate topic so I'm not surprised undergrads don't know anything about it.

i have heard this countless times in the last 6 months and I don't understand the point: because the us helped to overthrow peron it's okay that Russia interfered in the us elections? yes people are ignorant of the us' history but what does that have to with anything?

it's much much harder to license and distribute hardware than it is software.

source?

which language's run time cares about types?
