The fact the google ads doesn't allow to do a real location targeting but will show ads to anyone "interested" in that location is usually a non-starter for me. Having people all over the world shown an ad for a specifically

You do see those concepts everywhere. monads : stuff which kind of encapsulate other things, but you can still nicely manipulate both the thing and the stuff. Let's say, lists. monoids : set of things where you kind of can add one to a

Since they are necessary, there's no option to avoid them anyway ? (otherwise they wouldn't be necessary). So you'd rather accept them.

Ok, makes sense then ! In France, when I was a student, it was quite often a matter of "we take 10 interns but have only one full time position afterwards, so good luck to everyone !", so it was staying in the company that proved

I wonder how significant it is in the US, but in France, securing an internship is hardly difficult. Interns tend to barely get paid (when they do) and a lot of companies have no problem letting them rot for half of the internship duration.

But seriously, naming things correctly makes understanding the global system so much easier. The whole point of naming things is that you don't have to dive in this 60 LoC function, but rather can use its name to know what it does, and

No it doesn't, since O(n*log(n)) is in P too. P = NP doesn't imply that the complexity of finding the solution has the exact same complexity than verifying it, just that both are polynomial.
