Reminds me of this verse from Gensis: > By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return. In other words, work will always be work

I am not exaggerating. There is nothing you can do to protect yourself from cancel culture. There is enough hypocrisy in every person to fail on that standard alone. But even if there isn't, there is always something "bad enough&q

> a workplace dispute It was a dispute about unions and how POC felt in the workplace, according to the person who spoke up. You can't get more woke than that.

The rules of cancel culture are that you can never be sensitive enough, you can never help cancel enough other people, you can never loudly proclaim the right views often enough... eventually you will get cancelled too for what happened 10

Pushing for innovation is often a part of playing the status game. People pay attention to novelty because it is, in fact, novel. That is, unusual. Novelty also has the potential to benefit one's life in a new way, which is exciting. O

Someone somewhere has to still be able to buy if RH is still allowing people to sell. It's just not the people on RH.

I suspect that is the case if you have written a lot in a typed languages. There may be both context switching and literally no issue dealing with types if you have mastered them.

If that is your logic then even the premeditated crimes should be only given slaps on the wrist as their "decisions" are as much of a product of their environment as anyone else's. They don't live in a vacuum either. It

You give far too little credit to pure recklessness. It takes a hundred practiced bad decisions to eventually decide it is okay to drive drunk. At that point you are essentially gambling with people's lives. If someone habitually rolls

Or not being in prison could teach you that your actions don't have personal consequences. So why not continue drinking?

What do you think about how members of the last US executive administration should be treated? Should people give them jobs? Most people are in favor of punitive justice, but for the "right" wrongs.

I don't support piracy. So I don't support Sci-hub. But I believe that publishers are bilking the public and that publicly funded research should be made freely available. The real way to fix this is to disrupt the reputational in

This reminds me of a reddit copypasta: --- I just downvoted your comment. FAQ What does this mean? The amount of karma (points) on your comment and Reddit account has decreased by one. Why did you do this? There are several reasons I may de

My suggestions, not for this book in particular but technical textbooks in general: - Get very familiar with the table of contents first. Then note and filter out the sections you are less interested in or don't appear to provide the b

This is yet another aspect that makes these recent events so depressing. I don't think I've ever felt this low and ashamed as an American before. How could the government even allow such a security breach to happen?

Don't forget also documenting your findings. Without a notebook, results end up divorced from code stuffed into a folder with weird names. To properly document you have to write something in latex or word or markdown, but with a notebo

You still don't get it. It's about drilling recall in a fun way, like Anki flashcards. You obviously have to use another source.

You are overthinking it. You don't design fantasy cards with art to make sure all the technical details are right. You design them for fun and to make sure that the intuitive ideas and recall of all the python std functionalities remai

Interesting idea. I've never thought of separating the markup and the text into two different files. To me, it suggests a more machine friendly way of keeping track of markup. Directly writing sounds very painful.

Is it really though? Any CPU powerful enough can compute primes large enough. I suspect that Feynman was a supercomputer who could often brute force it. His method may work for him but it doesn't mean he has a complete understanding of

This library is on my todo list to learn and master. Not as intuitive as Mathematica, as variables are second rate citizens, but it is hard to beat the price. Also, Python integration is very nice as well.
