Thanks, this project uses Ruby on Rails 5 with Webpacker (React). I've found making websites quickly with Rails is very effective. The data can be found on Google BigQuery and I then used Scrapy to scrape Amazon pages for further product info. It's deployed to a DigitalOcean node and connects to an Amazon RDS Postgres instance.

The conception of the idea was Tuesday. The next thing I knew it was Saturday, and I felt ready enough to post.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to iterating. The suggestions you lay out are great. I'll hopefully be adding features / changes as time goes on. This was an initial MVP in order to get feedback quickly, and it worked! Appreciate the thoughtful response.

Yes, amazon dominates the product links, so it was easiest to start with that. In the future though, I'd love to add more.

Are you guys hiring outside of the UK? Specifically, are you hiring from the US?

I'm sorry if I made it confusing, but it really isn't about whether I signed up for 229 or 229a, the point is most of my classes for the coming term are now under this new online format and it would be shame to see them lower their standards to fit the public.

CS229a didn't exist prior to the online courses.

Class meetings were optional (which I did attend) and only a fraction of the students actually attended. I don't have a problem with cs229a being easier than 229, but the thing is a lot of other classes have now turned to the online format with no alternative (like 229 to 229a). Selfstudy is great, but sometimes the best way to learn is from a structured class.

I agree with with zuck knuth comparison perhaps I too quickly wrote the first two names that came to my head. As for the image, I like to make people think I go outside...
