How about adding the ability to use it with multiple accounts? That's by far my largest gripe with it.

I wasn't aware of this but shit happens. I don't use their cloud (have some e-mail boxes that forward to my own so I have copies), but I can see how something like that can be an issue with people. Also this is just another exampl

Kramnik is the one to talk about computer chess alright... I remember when I was still in school the huge scandal with him going multiple times to the bathroom in his match against then world champion Veselin Topalov (should be around 2005-

I'm curious what's it like to work for Bloomberg in London? Can anyone share some info or experience? (I know Glassdoor exists, I'm asking for a more personal overview)

Viemo = Vimeo. I was thrown off at the start until I realized that's the platform the author meant.

Company I joined recently will not renew the lease on their office next month. They'll get another smaller office that won't have the capacity for everyone and you'll have the option to go there (if you wish) on a rotation. P

I've worked on .NET Core services that ran in Ubuntu containers since the preview versions of .NET Core 2.0 (that was around spring/summer 2017) and since then .NET on Linux has been great. You get some config issues sometimes and

That's what I've always done in interviews. I'm confident about the things I know well, but I'm extremely open about the things I don't know and would like to improve.

Almost all jobs I've changed I've changed for a very simple reason - money! I'm a mercenary. I work for money. Company loyalty is bullshit in my eyes. Even if you enjoy the project and you think you're making a differenc

If I have to give out my card details anywhere especially for a subscription based service I look beforehand on how I can cancel it. Companies have no shame in leaving you forget a subscription going on forever. That should be punishable by

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it. I've taken a small break from studying (just reviews since I finished this experiment). I might follow your advice while still going forward with the second book, but not with the 50 chars/d

Actually I don't really intend to go for that list like that. I just wanted to illustrate that time wise it's possible. What I do intend to do is to follow the same approach for the second book and learn the other 1500 characters.

I can see that being an issue, but then again why would you trust in SRS completely and their algorithm? Why not create a measured review plan where each month you gradually pass everything (in my case Chinese characters) you've studie

It's entirely applicable! Actually Heisig and Richardson make the observation that after you finish both books (3000 characters) you'll be able to approach Chinese like a Japanese person would. Meaning that you'll have the kn

Thank you! The method really clicked in my head and the way I approach learning in general is close, so maybe that's why it's working so well for me.

This is entirely correct and I don't disagree with it. I already have some basic HSK1-3 level readers bought as well as some grammars (AllLearning + some others) that I intend to use when I finish my character learning.

I can see where the author is coming from and I think most of us have made sacrifices when it comes to things we wanted to learn or achieve. Time is never enough, social obligations pull you further etc. There are many reasons for that. I t
