Haha, solved? Put in the time windows, put the capacity limits, put the pickup and delivery (this isn't same as just delivery). It's far from solved, and far from efficient. Field isn't even mature as theoretical computer sci

It'd be interesting to see how someone handles vehicle routing problem on a large scale, quickly and optimally.

You don't have to. You have an office in Germany, you work for the office in the US. Both companies are entirely unrelated, only thing that bonds them is a contract for doing the work. You are outsourcing the stuff from US company to y

That's why any startup that wants business will make an Inc in the US. It's legally much simpler to do so, and leave your offices in the cheap EU. US Inc can employ your offices and at the same time have no people working in the U

Little bit of machine learning and here you go. The biggest deal is to collect the data. After data arrives, they can then look for any patterns they need. Filter anything that seems wrong.

When did I say that? If you believe I'm advocating for women being raised to become engineers then you and everyone else who downvotes me is silly. I'm talking about gender roles. They are here, they aren't changing, and no,

I'm not advocating for girls playing boy games. I'm just saying that there's crazy amount of conditioning here, and that people might unconsciously make choices for their daughters that will lead them to a very different life

Even simpler methods exist. Realize that framing your daughters behavior by giving her babies, princesses, dolls, makeup, clothes and similar to play with, while your boy gets the newest action games, puzzles, balls, competitive and brain e

Loving the haskell to javascript thingy. On my i7 4770 animations are still fast. Although, I thought that animations were done completely in haskell but it seems that necessary functions were exported and data used in d3js.

The situation gets even more extreme when you consider FPGAs. Having done Mandelbrot set as a toy example, it worked faster than a graphics card at producing high-resolution images and zooms.

Yeah, not all features of C++ are for students. But writing highly efficient code if one's aware of the copy-move semantics is almost straightforward. I can't remember when some larger projects rewritten in C++ turned out to be sl

Yeah, it was probably something symmetrical in the laws that allowed them to simulate only single part of the coil - saving the computing time and lowering the search space, stacking up resulted in full coil.

These big engineering projects always leave me with feelings of awe. It so interesting to look at the shape of the coil, nothing regular. Shapes optimized by a super computer, who knows what algorithms they've used there, what kind of

As I've said somewhere down the thread, OSRM has the same functionality and speed is supreme. Microsoft Research paper I've cited is equivalent to 5 reads of memory and needs about 20GB RAM for the whole Europe. It's a pretty

You are really arguing that? What system would calculate a shortest path between Sydney and London? There's an incredible amount of sparseness in the matrix. OSRM builts a hierarchy that allows fast computation of shortest paths for t

It's a mobile app primarily. OSRM is a nice project - out of the box. The lead went to some giant - so project is currently a bit stray but there are also some other alternatives on github which work well but might not be as mature as

Google Maps is just too expensive and its pricing model isn't exponential at all, it's not even quadratic. Very common operation is looking for pairwise distance matrix. Pricing and limits are totally irrational. 100,000 daily lim

These problems aren't that hard, although they do not say anything about the person that solves them. One can prepare for a Google interview in 1-3 months and I'm sure there's a pretty high chance they would pass it. I'v

I, on the other hand, am baffled by the outrage in any case. I do not understand why some animals have greater value than others. Be it rarity or not, from an evolutionary perspective there's no ranking. One cannot say that a worm is w
