Thread Rules
1. This is not a "do my homework for me" thread. If you have specific questions, ask, but don't post an assignment or homework problem and expect an exact solution.
2. No recruiting for your cockamamie projects (you won't replace facebook with 3 dudes you found on the internet and $20)
3. If you can't articulate why a language is bad, don't start slinging shit about it. Just remember that nothing is worse than making CSS IE6 compatible.
4. Use [code] tags to format code blocks.

Really? Ok. A friend of mine is looking for python programmers. It lso involved some web programming, I think, but mostly python. No clue what they do or whether you can work remotely. But it's in Barcelona, so why on earth would you want to work remotely (except maybe from the beach ).

They're looking for junior programmers. Sorry nesserev, spine, tofu, manitou. No trip to BCN for you

Heh, I only posted it because we really need DevOps. Right now we have to do some of it as devs and it's taking a toll (and finding a good devops that would also need a job is really hard).

you'll probably have to find a devops guy who already has a job and offer him more money

Yeah, but the one devops I know has like 3-4 jobs right now and he doesn't want to quit some of them (and we need an exclusive guy - better yet two, for redundancy).

@silvanel: I can brag with videos too!



We even have a billiards table, darts and other such things set up in our foyer to attract more people

One of the perks of this job is that we actualy get to drive those cars--> when we do system level stuff besides similations we also test in real cars. Pretty neat.

Sadly no. You dont get mercedes for making software for mercedes. People from Daimler (mercedes parent company) do get discount on new cars, but we are their supplier so we dont even get that.

Interesting, I haven't posted in here in ages, yet you still mention me. Not like I do python anyways though.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

I'm the definition of a junior programmer. Only have a couple of months worth of actual work experience, which was nothing more than a bunch of one-off solo jobs like writing web scrapers for a shady Korean, and building/deploying websites for small organizations. More of a learning experience than a money making one...

Still a student, doing a MSc SE/CompSci while leeching off of my loving parents. :/

EDIT: That said, I can freely mix my studies with work, and would love to respond to the job offers... but I'm probably gonna rejected

Hurray for awesome parents that secretly don't want us to move out

Sorry. Companies that earn $250 million a year are the bottom line we do. We have to make ads that cater to their CEO's, not regular people (speaking of which, this video was made by a single guy who sits 2m away from me)

Bonus:

Great presentation for any developer:

a little algorithm puzzle for you guys, it was the "challenge question" on my last homework

I think I figured out a solution but I thought some of you may have fun with it (don't cheat!, there's probably solutions online)


Find the median of a 5 element array with only 6 comparisons between elements. (I don't care what you do that isn't some sort of comparison)

Can anyone recommend a good online course on machine learning?

I was dabbling with the introductory tutorials on https://www.tensorflow.org/ but I find it very hard to do the next step from just following a tutorial since I am lacking the ML background (and my linear algebra is like 15y rusty ).

My go-to advice is Andrew Ng's coursera course:

In other words, sort a 5 element array using only 6 comparisons (math says you can do it in 7 - Ph.D. thesis (Stanford University) by H.B. Demuth (1956).

https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/44981/least-number-of-comparisons-needed-to-sort-order-5-elements
this?

though that is only for general algorithms I believe

I shared this with my friend and he was able to solve it (dunno how long it took but he said it took like over an hour for sure) while I was sleeping lol

he's not a math/cs person but he's pretty intuitive about it

I hate how the code looks for it though lol

Technically you don't need to fully sort the array to find the median, though I can't think of a method in 6 comparisions off the top off my head nor can I tell if it's possible.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.
