   Oh, I had a case where I had built an ML based recommendation app, and utilized Flask for serving the results on my localhost. Would have loved to use React but my lack of sufficient JavaScript knowledge prevented me from doing so. Your too

   Well, the FAQ at [1] quotes that a different UX is not a goal: > The goal is to recreate Reddit exactly, the exact same UX, except without servers, DNS, global admins, global moderators, lawyers, regulations, corporate greed, etc. [1]:

   Beautiful typography, I must say! Is it built on React or NodeJS?

   I'm perplexed as to what to support here. For someone like me who brazenly hates Instagram, FB, Snapchat kinds of social media, Reddit is a gold mine of wisdom, advice, and content, if used appropriately. And the best way to use it was

   The article argues how respectful Churchill was of India and its well being despite him being occasionally racist and awful. I would have tried to see the point in all fairness, but this article seems to portray an agenda to clear the disli

   Kudos to be able to express what I've been vehemently feeling recently.

   This is a nice feature, especially considering how each run of the same input could have produced a slightly different output. Now, one can freeze the conversation and share. "Continue the conversation" is neat too akin to Lichess

    Maybe you are aiming at a different audience, but this conundrum is similar to how most research problems in pure sciences go -- problem might seem interesting, but finding the solution is hard and sometimes we don't even know if a sol

    Fair enough -- to appreciate it really, one needs a motivated undergrad. But, it's similar in pedagogical style. It's not run of the mill concepts, but rather like a conversation that builds up with strong hints to form intuition.

    Most of the books are meant to be consumed in parts. This book explicitly mentions "Segue from previous chapter" for most chapters indicating what key concepts are continued in exploring/building new ones. Also, I believe any

    > If they can’t figure that out, anything more sophisticated seems hopeless. I disagree. What seems simple enough may actually be the last piece to be figured out. We don't have as much knowledge about the fundamental blocks, atom

    I'd say the Feynman Lectures of Physics [1] volumes cover a broad base with some topics in great detail as well. [1]: https://www.feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/

    Amazing effort at collecting and presenting the details. It's not just a number crunch but also of souls and dreams! What a chasm between wanting the nicer things, and being able to afford those. Gulp.

    I would say the job market is another stark differentiator. People with BS or MS degrees in CS would end up owning a job that an academic would have to wait until a tenure-track job to earn. The difference is CS jobs are obtainable right of

    Academia places unrealistic goals on brilliant people and pays them so meagerly that they have to often find other sources of income. On top of this, some of the advisors are outright unbearable with their demands and work expectations, the

    I definitely think social media has a large share in driving down the mental health of the majority of users. No two lives are comparable, yet it induces people to compare their lives to someone else's often resulting in an unreasonabl

    I have often found that participating on Instagram quickly turns into a comparison game with unhealthy results. But the view you expressed feels so healthy and in the right spirit of social media - to share special moments with your friends

    OpenAI - contrary to its name, it is not open-source enough anymore. Wolfram Mathematica - a lot of academicians (read Physicists) still use it for the ease of writing programs, but there is no open source alternative.

    Thanks for this comment. I too often feel that I'm truly never disconnected from work related thoughts and hence feel rusty or not fresh enough to attack a problem. Do you have any suggestions to deal with that effectively?

    Essentially: 1. Keep sentences short. 2. Use appropriate vocabulary. 3. Engage your audience with a captivating beginning. 4. Prefer active voice.

    I liked the idea, but it's less actionable than I thought at first sight. > Do the weirdest things that feel right. What's weird? Why should it feel right? Maybe the phrase just means one to choose an adventurous yet fun path
