If the request you are talking about actually gets executed once (maybe it gets cached or something), then you shouldn't be pitching the time difference anyway.

If it gets executed 100s of times in a day per person, you can say this is 50 ms * 100 = 5s, 200 ms * 100 = 20s. And that's just per user.

I can agree that learning Chinese is a stress release. Just learning the characters by itself is very calming and stress-relieving.

Also, all that Chinese Internet humor is a reward :-D

1. When you exit a terminal it dumps irrelevant stuff rather than just closing the tab.

    ~ % exit 
    
    [Process completed]

2. Cmd + Arrow doesn't doesn't move to the next or last tab. (Cmd + number does work however, but it doesn't show numbers on the tab list like iTerm)

3. Comes with terrible defaults like the screen color.

That is such a weird combination.

Most Maharashtrians I know from the previous generation (including my parents) are from Maharashtra, and Maharashtrians have somewhat of a reputation for not wanting to leave Maharashtra.

Erik Demaine's lectures are a nice place to start if you are into formal geometric folding theory: http://erikdemaine.org/classes/

For a person who is relying on benchmarks, you should know that benchmarks are only a rough indication of how well anything performs for a very specific use case.

Your reply is arrogant and ignorant, and you should feel bad about typing that.

Why is he not allowed to review your results or check what factors you benchmarked it on? If there's no citation, that claim does not stand.

It is what CyanogenMod used to be under a new name because CM got sold: https://liliputing.com/2016/12/cyanogenmod-dead-lineage-will...

Oh, sorry.

道: found it on the Chinese version.

What's the Chinese character for Dao (if exists)?

My experience with barre chords is that I thought I could never get them right, but I kept trying them with very tiny variations, until one day I just got them. Never thought that I could play them correctly till the day before I got them right.

> Think about all the amazing memories that are being wasted right now.

If you are putting up a story for things that are important, you should probably download those memories separately too. Snapchat allows you to revisit a story and download it (first into Memories and then to your phone).

Most of my friends use the stories feature to upload pics of drinks or silly videos that don't deserve to be saved on disk anyway.

Stop making up words for which there already are words. "estimate" works just fine in that context.

Indo-Chinese is barely derived from/a changed version of traditional Chinese.

As an Indian who eats traditional Chinese food from various parts of China regularly, I can confirm that there literally isn't any sauce that tastes like Indo-Chinese cuisine's sauces. Indo-Chinese seems like Indian food with ingredients from Chinese food added which makes it a changed version of traditional Indian food rather than a changed version of traditional Chinese food.

One of my life's goals is to get one of my friend from NE China to eat Manchurian food in Mumbai. Results will be interesting.

Weird that you mentioned it today. I just made one for the first time today after visiting the Chinese supermarket (I am not East Asian).

Century egg is definitely one of the weirdest smelling things I have ever eaten. It smells like H2S. Took me back to my chemistry lab sessions.

Mumbai, India.

Such a nice domain name.

I would downvote this comment if I could.

This app/plugin is well done.

To prove: Uber cannot be cheaper than driving your own vehicle.

Proof of negation of the TP using counterexample:

1. Monthly insurance cost for own vehicle = a few hundred dollars = $k. Monthly insurance cost for Uber = $0.

2. Assume an extreme case where you don't travel at all in the entire month. Total cost of transportation for owning a car = $k. Total cost of transportation for Uber-ing everywhere = $0.

3. Assuming that the costs are proportional to the kms you have traveled you get this: http://imgur.com/A61dXx9

The inflection point where Uber is no longer cheaper than driving is (k / (mu - mc)), where mu and mc are the slopes for the lines for Uber and own car, and "k" is the insurance intercept.

There's nothing that stops you from uploading the PDF elsewhere, right? Why not just push the file to some free hosting service (or even GitHub in a GitHub Pages repo)?

Shit headline. As if being from Stanford makes this worthy of being on Hacker News.

Please people. CS has been being used for social good for quite a while. Better headline would be something that says that Stanford has actually started a class about social good.
