In that same essay I think he also mentioned you can't know fully how good a hacker is until you've worked with them. I still agree that the best developers will be able to see talent.

A few months ago I decided I should read more arXiv papers to stay up to date with machine learning, but I found the UI and lack of features of arXiv.org to be unwelcoming. So, as a fun project, I decided to build my own site to browse arXiv and that's where Arxiver.org came from. I'd love to get some feedback on site!

I can get behind this. But really, this looks cool and I'll definitely be trying it out.

I've built drones, websites, and windmills, and now I'm bored. What to do next? I really enjoy doing things that I can learn from and that solve a problem. Any ideas? Things that come to mind are AI, Solar, Vertical Farming, but who knows what else.

Ask HN: How do homeless people usually find jobs?

Posted by essofluffy on Monday June 13, 2016 @10:25PM

Do shelters have job programs set in place? If so, do these programs have partnerships with employers? Are there specific 'jobs for the homeless' sites?

I'd like to get involved in AI and I have already found a research group at this university along with a list of graduate students working on projects and their professor.

I'll begin reading through some of their research and getting used to reading papers as you suggested. Should I go through their professor to get to the students or contact them directly?

What I would like is to be around and ideally involved in new ideas, research, and discovery. Even if that means getting coffee and hours inside during the summer.

As a high school student, I'm not sure what I can offer any ideas there?

I also get the impression from your post that I need to get more specific and engage graduate students that are working on projects. Should I possibly be asking the graduate students to work with them as opposed to their professor?

Re:Apply HN: Scriber – Micropayment Platform for Publishers on Friday April 22, 2016 @03:52PM (#11552125)

I was working on a similar service using Bitcoin so the idea was mostly centered around maintaining control of your money and negligible fees. Our main issue was lack of a market to pitch to, but this idea is definitely something that I would hope becomes a reality.

Re:Apply HN: Scriber – Micropayment Platform for Publishers on Thursday April 21, 2016 @05:29PM (#11545475)

So you plan to bundle all the payments into a monthly bill to avoid fees on each transaction? Doesn't this assume each user will be purchasing enough content to make the fees negligible?

Re:Apply HN: Scriber – Micropayment Platform for Publishers on Thursday April 21, 2016 @03:19PM (#11544677)

How are you handling the payments?
