I agree. I'm not really sure about how much Europe will benefit but I can see other US cities becoming new tech hot spots in few years, not even in a decade. BTW, I tried writing to you via email mentioned in your profile.
Do you mind if I ask you few questions via email?

Re:Go Contracts – Draft Design on Monday July 29, 2019 @07:12PM (#20560463)
Agree & Voted.

Another alternative that I would like is to have angle brackets < > for better readability, so that definition and call would look as follows:

  // 1
  func Print2<type T1, T2>(s1 []T1, s2 []T2) { ... }
  Print2<int,int>( ... )
  
  // 2
  var v Vector<int>
  
  // 3
  func (v *Vector<Element>) Push(x Element) { *v = append(*v, x) }
Sorry, if it gives you C++ nightmares.
Re:About V, the language Volt is written in on Thursday February 07, 2019 @01:15AM (#19103405)
As a someone who has never design the language or implemented a compiler, this seems to be on very very daunting task. Just wondering how much effort it requires and if someone like me - who has experience in developing software using high-level languages but not compilers - can implement it. It seems to be very interesting project and I would love to try something like this just for the sake of learning. I would really appreciate if someone can give me the pointers about where to begin with.

Just wondering what kind of programming/designing skills you need for this kind of project?
This is the reason why I love people at Google. They do listen! :-)
Just wondering if anybody from Google asked you to apply for positions there after this?
Can you please provide examples/info about going from developer to architect learning path?
Re:Ask HN: Best Chair for Programming on Friday January 20, 2017 @11:15AM (#13444799)
I bought Autonomous' ErgoChair[1] couple of months ago but it got delivered in December 2016. I like it and It's lot cheaper than other options in the market.

Warning: KickStarter suspended their campaign [2] because they were reselling the product. You may also want to check this Reddit thread [3] before you make your mind.

Thank you! HN doesn't have any option to follow but that's ok. I do have a question for you - Does newsletters/pro accounts (costs around $199/yr) like Motley Fool, Morning star of any help, or those are just sham?
Would you please care to share learning resources about GCE other than the official docs?

Thank you so much! I'll look into that too.

Ask HN: How did you learn about stocks and the market?

I find it really hard/confusing to understand stocks and the market from the investing perspective. I'm a beginner in this domain. So, I keen to learn about it so that I can understand the technical details too. I did a search and found out that everybody is recommending "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham. I'm kind of person who likes to watch videos, so I also found couple of...

Ask HN: How to start with maths required for ML or Deep Learning?

I really want to learn about Machine/Deep Learning. I tried to start with some ML courses and online resources but I got intimidated when I saw that it required really good background in Maths. I do have basic intro to Calculus, but I don't know much. It seems to get really good at ML, you need to know a lot about Maths. I'm sure some of you have already crossed this hurdle, so I'm really...
