@auren base materials + added effort, can always find a way to win

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@auren depends how you define "networking". substitute that with providing help and value, and it's a whole different graph

Job done

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@AashayBothra @paulg Yes - I was onsite at the S'15 interview round, while waiting I recall meeting a kind team from India doing a solar tech, and another team from London that manufactured an IoT cash register.

Give it a shot, you never know!

@AriannaSimpson great point. in addition, consumers should get a rebate for doing this reporting. this is all in return for contributing a small part towards a better feedback pipeline

I am on the website of a large international company which forces the password/pin you choose to be 6 numeric digits only. I am dying inside! They are #GDPR compliant, but this is information security basics...

@RyanMarcus Big fan of this whole thread. These are all undergrads?
I'm surprised how cynical some of these poems are.

@stylianipantela I can write code for days too, just not a lot of code per day :)

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@atri_93 Haha I wonder if they fixed it

I didn't even think to try claiming it as a bug bounty at the time :)

This soon-to-be next Trillion dollar company currently has a fun typo in their 404 error page for one of their most popular products. Can you spot it?!

@stylianipantela There are also several online IDEs that essentially allow you to store, edit and interpret/run your notebooks completely on a web platform

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@stylianipantela Awesome!

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@stylianipantela Great quote, keeping it in mind, in conjunction with what you said yesterday!

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

PhD fun moment.
My favorite paper proofread catch for my labmates, confusion of "monotonous" with "monotonic":

optimizing a function that is "monotonously increasing" -- so a function that is increasing boringly!
As opposed to increasing interestingly?

:-D #csphdlife

@HasanIsSmrt How about interpreting it from a party ID demographic standpoint

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@datasciwell You win!!1 :)

@nfilali @Spotify I'd argue that there's no age ceiling for Mr. Rogers! Haha

[Wilson Qin @QinBone]

@kaenkane Spotify curation has so much potential to elevate independent artists and music discovery, but instead a lot of their curators probably align more with driving the company's bottom line. $$$

@eddywongch My guess is that Back Bay's more gridlike design is the anomaly. And most roads in other Boston neighborhoods are curvy. Esp when Allston, Roxbury, etc are counted.
