If documentation were adequate, there wouldn't have been a need for Stack Overflow in the first place. At least for now, it still takes (human) intelligence to consume documentation and synthesize knowledge through experience with new

Most of these concepts (except Groebner bases) are basic stuff you would learn in a first course in linear algebra. If you don't know what they mean, this post is likely not relevant to you.

Disagree. From my experience as a scientist there isn't a manual that says what peer review is and isn't supposed to be. Of course, some journals have such guidelines (not that all reviewers read them), and the editors who assign

I don't know that adjusted costs of individual research projects are going to be informative, if that's what you're looking for -- they are apples and oranges between the research of today and in the past. You may be able to

Yes? I'd speculate the discussion in fact went something like this: 1. Trump supporters have been made an example of by keeping a bunch of them in jail for years for the crime of walking through a building; 2. There are enough court ca

Sounds like you are being asked to do pointless technical work that will probably add overhead and complexity without tangible benefit to the product and business. You are right to question this. Who do you report to? The CTO? How is your r

I think a Silicon Valley CEO would have to be pretty detached from reality to not understand what happens when a startup gets bought by a large company. No, you do not get to remain autonomous. No, you do not get to preserve your culture. Y

I think you'll be making a mistake by trying to grow the team to 8 or 15 people without hiring any additional management staff. Maybe the business is stable and running itself, but managing a tech team of 8 is already a full-time job.

Yes. This has been well-documented -- in the days since ChatGPT was released, there have been multiple posts with it making up references, book titles and authors, etc. Galactica did the same, and probably every other LLM. An LLM is not a s

Spivak is rarely the answer to a request for a math book recommendation, unless the request is something like "I've already learned calculus, now I want to really learn calculus."

It depends. What math are you trying to learn? The correct approach will depend on what material you are looking to review and what you are trying to learn anew. For review of anything up to and including calculus, I would recommend Khan Ac
