You have 60k passive income, which is more than most people on this site have for passive, and is more than most people's salaries in US. My point is you are very well off financially. Sounds like you want the luxury of going into a st

I have a thing about when actual numbers get used. The thing is the website is in English, so it does not target 7 billion people. It only matters what percentage of target audience can process the message, and it's targeting professio

I'm not an employer, so maybe I do not have a good perspective on this. But, as a business owner you probably depend on this business financially, perhaps you have family who depends on the business, and perhaps you have other employee

Most people face simple issues. And when they look for answers, they find stackoverflow and upvote the answer. When a really tough question comes up, it probably effects only a few people, so only few people will upvote. I'm assuming &

Question about returning documents: OP stated these are printouts, so what is the point of returning them if the original owner can just print them out again? Wouldn't returning the documents actually put that person in trouble, becaus

I'd be interested in finding out more, but www.redecentralized.org isn't working for me. Is there a typo? I wouldn't be against having a machine at my home, but I suppose that means single point of failure would erase all dat

Probably the top reason someone would fix app instead of volunteering physically, is regular volunteering requires working on someone else's schedule. For example if you are on a volunteer ambulance squat, then you got some hours assig

I think it's really tough to get someone to pay for an app from an unknown publisher. Games like Angry Birds are a known, if I like one of them, I'll very likely enjoy the next one, so I can pay and play. Games from unknown publis

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Corona. I did a couple of games natively on Android, and now trying to make one in Corona, and it seems to be an easier route. One big negative (if it applies) is it's 2D, whereas Unity is 3D. It

current government is irrelevant. The data captured now will exist likely forever. If at any point there's a new leader who wants to wipe out a race, he'll have much easier time than checking everyone's papers. I don't m

In high-school I went to - Edward R Murrow, in Brooklyn, back in 90's, we had non-regents classes for really poor students (I took bio non-regents), regular classes for regular students, and there were AP courses for smarter students.

To answer your question "Why do relational databases index instead of a separate module/process?", you can see this quote from [2] that you linked: "it is clear when you can use index for sort MySQL will be a lot faster.
