>Starting March, 2009 I was renting an apartment directly across the street from the New York Stock Exchange. It was fun. I’d look out the window and see Wall Street. How exciting! Before that I lived in The Chelsea Hotel with Chubb Rock. Last year we decided to relax and move a little north. Now I look out the window and see the Hudson River. And its quiet and I can walk along the river in the morning with no noise.
I can't imagine that was cheap. Most of the article is inflected with desire to retain hoards of cash and sleep on top of a pile with many beautiful women (well, that's the undertone). Yet he's blowing what must be a huge wad on an apartment in NYC in an upscale area.
This is my guess. Anyone who's used VIM for years knows that the first couple of times using a different editor, your text is littered with "i" and ":w".
I can't tell if you're being facetious or not. Our last trip to SF I swore I'd never go anywhere near Pier 39 again. Having said that, if you've never been to SF, you might head over there for lunch at Pier Market Seafood and look around a bit. But it's pretty much like any kitschy carnival like atmosphere you've ever been to. Near there you can get tickets to go across and see Alcatraz. Down the street and up one is Ghiradelli Square, go have a pint and something to snack on at The Pub. If you've brought your appetite, I recommend the jambalaya. There's a guy that plays guitar on the sidewalk at the corner of Beach and Larkin, be sure to throw this guy a buck. Speaking of, there are alot of street performers at night down in that entire area if you're into that sort of thing.
Am I the only one that can't find the video / audio lectures? The older (but still very good) 6.00 CS course with Grimson is on YouTube, but I don't see anything but reading materials here (unless that's the point).
Ahh! This is my course!!
I am actually an undergraduate student, and this course was my first foray into teaching. Please note that this is not intended to be an in-depth semester course, but rather was an intensive two-week course during MIT's January semester. Class met three hours a day and was intended on giving a springboard introduction into the basics of Python and a short bit on classes/inheritance for students taking MIT's 6.01 course the following semester.
The ocw page is a bit bare-bones right now as getting the class together was a bit of a challenge :) If you search around the site, you should be able to find exercises and example code in addition to the readings. Answers, unfortunately, to the exercises cannot be posted because so many MIT students focus more on getting an A rather than learning the material, so releasing OCW solutions typically leads to rampant cheating.
I do, however, plan on improving the page next January, adding a better set of handwritten notes, more example code, and some short OpenOffice presentations on various concepts to promote self-learning. I appreciate comments here on the course, what you would like to see, etc, and I will try to incorporate them. Keep in mind that solutions and videos are not going to happen - solutions for the aforementioned reasons, and videos because of the cost to OCW. However, I may be able to self-record my lectures and post to YouTube if there is sufficient interest :)
One last plug - I troll the programming forum on linuxquestions.org, username robotsari; if you post python questions I try to answer!
robotsari> thanks very much for taking the time to reply; I was looking for lecture material because of the text at the bottom portion of the "Download Course Materials" page:
"This package contains the same content as the online version, but does not contain audio/video files. These must be downloaded separately from iTunes U or YouTube."
I'm sure that you can see this is misleading. Thanks, though, for your input and for putting the material as such on OCW!
The study mentions nothing of eating habits; are we to believe each man (in 1982 no less) was eating a very healthy diet and all other factors were taken into consideration with regard to their lifestyle? For all we know they sat in front of the TV with a big bowl of ice cream, or ate a heavy meal in the evening before sitting down to relax. What about stressors, work or otherwise? Meh.
I don't believe the IPO is about the model S; it's about ramping up to build a sub 30K (or was it 20K) model at the newly acquired plant in Nor Cal, partnered with Toyota.
citations? I thought it was about the model S, e.g. model S _is_ their consumer model.
wikipedia: "On May 20, 2010 Tesla Motors announced it would form a partnership with Toyota to produce a new lower-priced model along with the Model S at the former NUMMI assembly plant in Fremont, California.[6]"
I am confused by our comment, jaekwon. It seems as though you are asking for proof and then give it. Maybe I am just misunderstanding, but the wikipedia quote does state that there is a new model along with the Model S.
You got me. I guess I skipped the words "along with" when scanning.
To my credit, the cited link [6] tells nothing about a new lower-priced model other than the Model S.
