How to Build a Linear Programming Library
I started at six in the morning because I was jazzed about doing this. And it took me until like 11 or so. But in one day, I was able to build and I built a library that could solve the exact problem we're solving with sample data from real scenarios. That could handle all the different types of constraints that could solve for the objective function that that we wanted. It required some system libraries that didn't exist on our production stack. We had to figure out how to get those installed. He asked 180 questions during the day. An enormous number of questions because he didn't know how to technically implement anything.
