Contributing my own logic puzzle: I have a deck of 20 numbered cards in my hand numbered 1..20. The deck is turned face down so you can't see the numbering on any of the cards, and you don't know what order they're in. I repeat the following steps 20 times in a row: 1. I take the top card off...

In the first round A[lbert] doesn't know, so he can't have n=1, k=1, r=0 (otherwise he'd know that he has the minimum possible value and thus that B[ernard] must have a larger value). B then doesn't know, which means that B also doesn't have n=1, k=1, r=0 and he ALSO doesn't have n=1, k=1, r=1...

I did work experience there and stayed. They're in the educational technology sector, which incidentally is undergoing massive growth at the moment and is a great space for startups. Just look at Udacity, Coursera, Knewton, edX, Khan Academy, and co. These companies are raising bucketloads of...

I worked at a startup in Sydney for a few years during high school and the start of uni. I was employee #4 or #5 and the company went up in value from around $100k when I joined to tens of millions by the time I left. That was great fun. They've recently moved to San Francisco where the real...

Depends on the startup's goal. Off the top of my head: Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong. What's your startup idea?

Ah yes, A$AP Integration, the newest member of the A$AP Mob.

It's not bad, but it's not great either. From what I've heard, funding is hard to come by. All the founders whom I know are branching out into Asia and the US. There is a startup scene though.

SE and CS will probably both require you to do about 4 maths courses, more if you want. Discrete maths is the most important for both degrees. 4u maths is recommended if you want a head start.

Yes, definitely.

Probably, but the degree will be worth less when it comes to further academic studies or finding a job.

USyd's course will be more rigorous and reputable.

Discrete is easier if you're good at maths. In a sense, it's more pure. MATH11x1 is easier if you're good at memorising techniques.

Other way around

That mostly shows that more USyd graduates go into postgraduate studies than UNSW students. The actual disparity between the number of employed or studying people between the two unis is small. Median graduate salary can be explained the same way. Also, it's unclear whether the table refers to...

UNSW and USyd both have fantastic CS departments. UNSW may be a teeny bit better. Don't make your decision based on the programme, choose the university that suits you best.

Bullshit. Every full-time Google engineer who has the necessary qualifications to get a work visa to the US gets an offer to work in Mountain View in addition to their other offers (at least in theory). So every engineering employee who can get a work visa to the US gets a chance to work in the...

Incomplete but I think it gets you to the solution if you actually work out the steps. \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{1}{k!} is a well-known formula for e. Also, \frac{1}{a_1} + \frac{1}{a_1a_2} + \dots + \frac{1}{a_1a_2...a_n} = \frac{1+\frac{\frac{1+\frac{1}{a_n}}{\vdots}}{a_2}}{a_1} From...

If you're gonna learn Python, reddit.com/r/learnpython is better than /r/learnprogramming. They will give you more specific advice. Learning programming before starting uni isn't always a good idea, because you'll pick up bad habits on your own that will take a while to correct at uni.

These were very similar to my marks in 2012 (I got eng adv 95, eng ext1 47, same maths ext1, ext2 and phys, 98 SDD and 49/50 ext2 english). I got 99.9.
