Installing LaTeX + TeXstudio

  1. Grab MiKTeX 2.9 and install. It doesn't really matter whether you get the complete or basic system, as the basic system will download packages as needed.
  2. Grab TeXstudio and install.
  3. Fire up TeXstudio and hit Options -> Configure TexStudio.
  4. Under "Commands", change "Bibtex" from "bibtex %" to "bibtex8 %" (bibtex8 is later and greater and is needed for biblatex, which is better than bibtex for reference handling).
  5. Under "Quick Build", check "PdfLaTeX + Ldf Viewer". Not all LaTeX compilers were created equal, and Pdf is likely the format you'll want.
  6. If you're feeling adventurous, go to "Editor" and change the font family to "Consolas" :)

My answers to over 100 Google interview questions

##Google Interview Questions: Product Marketing Manager

  • Why do you want to join Google? -- Because I want to create tools for others to learn, for free. I didn't have a lot of money when growing up so I didn't get access to the same books, computers and resources that others had which caused money, I want to help ensure that others can learn on the same playing field regardless of their families wealth status or location.
  • What do you know about Google’s product and technology? -- A lot actually, I am a beta tester for numerous products, I use most of the Google tools such as: Search, Gmaill, Drive, Reader, Calendar, G+, YouTube, Web Master Tools, Keyword tools, Analytics etc.
  • If you are Product Manager for Google’s Adwords, how do you plan to market this?
  • What would you say during an AdWords or AdSense product seminar?
  • Who are Google’s competitors, and how does Google compete with them? -- Google competes on numerous fields: --- Search: Baidu, Bing, Duck Duck Go

Usage

26 time management hacks I wish I'd known at 20

  1. There's always time. Time is priorities
  2. Days always fill up | "Only plan for 4-5 hours of real work per day."
  3. Work more when you're in the zone. Relax when you're not. | "It's normal to have days where you just can't work and days where you'll work 12 hours straight"
  4. Respect your time and make it respected | "Your time is $1000/hour, and you need to act accordingly"
  5. Stop multi-tasking. It merely kills your focus.
  6. Set up a work routine and stick to it. Your body will adapt
  7. We're always more focused and productive with limited time.
  8. Work is the best way to get working. Start with short tasks to get the ball rolling.

Lim's implementation of Google Python Style Guide

1. Automated style checking

Google recommends pychecker but either pylint or pyflakes will do as well. See this question on stackoverflow for a discussion of their advantages and disadvantages.

2. Indentation

4 spaces. No tab. 80-column wide. Period.

3. Blank lines

2 blank lines after top-level
