Efficient Algorithms and Intractable Problems (CS170) was by far one of my favorite classes at UC Berkeley. Every computer science student should be a solid foundation in basic algorithms. Do you know your Big O? Big Theta? Also, do you ever wonder why the Facebook calls its network a social graph? Graph theory is one [...]
Google and IBM have teamed up to provide data centers to help students and researchers write software for large-scale applications. This is a large push for colleges to emphasize the needs of parallel computing; it is a relatively new field not taught traditionally at the undergrad level. In addition, the number of computer science majors [...]
Today, the TechCrunch interns, including me, posted our Top 10 Facebook apps. In kind gesture, Scoble comments, “It’s war. The 40 somethings vs. the 20 somethings” and comes up with his own Top 10.
Here’s my short response to the 40’s
1. Google Reader Shared Items. This is way more useful for those who read [...]
Many engineering majors hate humanity classes with a passion. Like most other engineers, I growned and moaned at the ones that actually made you read, or even write (gasp). However, I have changed a bit since those freshman days; classes that used to seem useless are now more appealing. In fact, I believe that the [...]
Planning out my fall schedule soon. We need undergradaute classes about startups. Maybe I should drop out …
Update: FRIK, I missed my telebears appointment after working non-stop. Now I’m waitlisted in every class.
Update: As reported by Duke News, the problem was not the iPhone, but Cisco.
As mentioned on Network World, iPhone’s WiFi capability is flooding Duke networks. What caught my attention is that it’s summer! No one is on campus during the summer. That is hilarious.
“Because of the time of year for us, it’s not a severe [...]
