While I agree that a one time token is best, there's nothing wrong with generating a pass, sending it in an email then saving the hashed version in the db.

Odds are you'll be prompted to change it aftet the first login too.

I only knew that. Got me an internship at Google. That opened up a lot of possibilities.

Edit: I guess I'm saying do your best with what you have and you'll find opportunities.

@tisaconundrum Code writing

While everyone here is be partially right in that the majority of that hate is due to a herd mentality, there will always be people who hate certain languages, and I dislike php.

Why? Because ASP.NET with razor syntax does the same things but better. It has oop, and also strong casting and MSFTs packages, and i feel the code is cleaner (wtf is up with $ everywhere...). Finally my biggest quip is that displaying a variable in C# is as simple as typing @var_name. No <? echo $var_name ?>. Makes the code so much more cleaner.

Sure it's not open source, but that doesn't matter too much to me (razor is now discontinued, but before it was my argument was solid).

TL;DR: I don't hate it, but I do believe C# razor is a better option, so it's just inferior IMO (with the MO being the most important bit, as Thurs is purely a matter of taste).

Li think you mean abc.xyz

Just because there's no prize doesn't mean you can't compete for fun and see how high you qualify, right?

@billgates @bkwilliams @jchw They are incredibly useful for competitive programing as well. Also good in optimizing some stuff, making them take logarithmic time (via comparing binary representation of the start and end and doing computations on those) vs linear (via going through all numbers).

Looks like someone took "will program for food" a little too literally ...

Holy shit the symmetry between your situation and ours is scary.

Also our FYP (Final Year Project), also a guy who does shit all but now suddenly wants to work because work will be reviewed. Also says yeah I get it before going and bullshitting something unrelated.

only difference is that in my case, Bob is the guy who is working (his name is actually Bob). I showed this to him and he laughed his ass off.

I agree with everyone on this thread. During my internship my host/mentor taught me so much, I don't think I'd be where I am today if not for him.

Odd, I answered a similar rant just a few days ago.

Ah well, I'm Lebanese - how do you like those new taxes they posted eh?

@starless @Rshman1903 I already mentioned in my original comment that I know that numpy uses cpp (C++), what I was asking about is how could he get a seg fault from running a python program, eventhough the underlying uses cpp, unless it was just passing along the error which I don't think it would do ...

wait ... you can get a core dumped (segmentation fault) in python?

Or is that in the cpp libraries required for numpy (which should be installed by pip and as such should not give a cpp error anyway)? Either way sounds super weird =S

Hope the rest of the test flight went well, though!

Oh and welcome to devRant :)

@hafiz5626 @DrHaXX He has a flare for the dramatic hence the opera [browser]

@nickpapoutsis @sladuled

it is an aquired taste. I got an invite to it pretty early, and while I disliked it at first, it's indispensable now. Approach it with an open mind, without concentrating on what's not there, and you'll learn to appreciate what is [there].

Serious answer: Unfortunately, there's none, but the best way I've found is to look at multiple sites, and take what they say in common. The thing is: the startup world is extremely dynamic, so advice that works in one place doesn't in another, so the advice will even be conflicting. Take it with a grain of salt and unless there's heavy opposition to what you wanna do, do it anyway, as the success of the startup is directly tied to your vision. Just because that one guy succeeded doing x doesn't mean you have to do it if you don't feel it's right.

Better yet, you can check an exact concern (eg, COO in startup team) and see the response (in this case: run away), usually these responses are more in line with each other.

If you're looking for reasons why a startup fails, a study conducted on a huge number was done and the reason for failure documented (a quick Google should lead you to it). The number one reason turned out to be founder disagreement.

My ACM-ICPC coach told me this 2 minutes before our regionals.

He was like "even if it takes more time, write stupid code." Wasn't horrible advice.

@adampisula The real proof is

x = 0.(9)
10x = 9.(9)
10x - x = 9x = 9.(9) - 0.(9) = 9
x = 1

Nicely done!

Looking forward to my next coding session now ÷)

@AboMahdi it's clear enough for the purpose of the rant. Don't optimize before you need to :D

Oh, it's only on IE. I thought it was something important.

o.O Best of luck, mate

I read this "I always read depreciated as depreciated". Took me a second to realize that those were differnet words.

Guess I'm one of today's lucky 10,000!

Oh, you don't have to worry about that. He's a soft science major who took the course as an elective.

As much as I'm happy that all those people won't die, it's still sad that we won't get more rants from ex-future co-workers =/

(and eventhough I know it's my own business, like I said, the circumstances surrounding my acceptance of the request were out of the ordinary, and justified - from a moral standpoint - to a degree I was comfortable with.)

Intersection Detection.

Incredibly vague, but catchy.
