Is it getting harder these days to come up with new similar ideas, maybe due to legal pressures?

Can the Stanford compiler course be self-taught given the online material? What's missing? I've seen it available on Coursera. And a lot of the current material is available online. But I tried the Coursera one awhile ago and got

Is linear algebra useful to learn for distributed systems? I'm taking graph theory next semester and wondering what else might be useful. I took a distributed systems course already and we used no math at all.

These are great. I wonder why he didn't just handwrite the notes. These are much better, but they seem like they would take a long time unless you can type latex quickly.

What kind of math is involved in building a faster database? Genuinely curious. I would guess maybe linear algebra, indirectly.

Thanks, I'm doing a Masters now and I was planning on taking Number Theory and Abstract Algebra next term. I took mathematical cryptography this term and it got me interested in more related math.

Best courses for mathematical maturity besides the standard CS ones? I'm thinking Algebra, or maybe Real Analysis.

Is the site just temporarily down? I was watching one of the lecture videos and when I came back to the site I got a 502 error.

I think derivation proofs are useful (and definition) but other types of proofs such as correctness hasn't helped me as much.

Would be interesting to know which subset of math he thought was most useful. There is just too much to learn.

So true, it's the unknown unknowns that tripped me up before going back to get a Masters CS degree.

Having a degree confirms you at least knew the math at one point, and could recall is quickly if needed.

Best description I’ve seen! Can sometimes see it in the bimodality of the types of comments too.

A negative article "How Not to Be Successful" would be interesting, with unobvious observations. It could also include the top reasons why people get rejected from YC.

Why don't more employees from Google and Facebook start successful companies? They seem to exhibit all of these traits.

People are also taking advantage of affirmative action by claiming to be part of a race if they had one relative from that race 10 generations back i.e. Elizabeth Warren. I feel you should have at least 50% of that DNA in order to be able t

I need the concrete before the abstract just so my mind knows that what I’m seeing is not BS. Because in finance, 95% of the math is BS formulas that have no connection to reality.
