So this guy has been "killing math" since 2011. The inevitable question: where are achievements, success stories, anything at all?

How do you deal with onboarding, both technically, and legally if your eval period is 1-2 days? I mean unless you are a one-man team, and can just give all permissions yourself, and ignore legalities, it sounds way too short

Syncretism is mixing religions (as doctrines, beliefs). Assimilating local traditions into one's religious rituals is not that.

USA fluctuates expanding, and diminishing its power mainly because it's typical for electoral democracies to change its course with higher frequency. It's friendly to Europe most of the time, and hostile at times. It's cultur

China isn't a big bully for European nations cause it's counterbalanced by USA, not of inherent niceness. Also in two years there will be a different president in White house, but in Beijing things aren't that fluid.

This is moderately popular misconception which seems to be prevalent in English-speaking sources. Latin "mediterraneus" means simply between-lands. And "orient" is not "top" as other commenter already noticed.

I don't think it's fair, while "one of the most abundant" isn't well-nuanced wording, but the argument is that glassmaking won't exhaust glass-grade sands in historically near times, and it's true.

One argument for PET packaging bans is that there are people for whom the discipline of disposal is hard. If it's true, than re-using cotton bags for 173 times is hard - on average level, not for you personally.

On one hand, you are not wrong, sands differ in qualities, but the question is what you need to make from it. Glass-grade sands aren't everywhere, but they are abundant anyway. Some industries, like solar panels production, require hig

It's a conspicuous part. But energy use is still a problem. Like, maybe high-kicking people throwing trash everywhere would be cheaper solution then letting them do it, but with paper instead of PET. If we won't calculate we can&#

Few month after I started using bare Chromium instead of Brave, and consequently started to see ads, they often felt like a cool joke. I even had an occasional urge to share it with colleagues, like "Look, what they are showing me, hah

Looks like I'm right. I don't read in German regretfully, but what I get with machine translation fully supports my point - national discretion allows for civilian or humanitarian aid rather than an automatic military response

This fun was not revenue-generating, I suspect, so it's already a loss. Also it's a long-tail change, which will likely create unexpected situations here and there, and de-value experience and knowledge already available. Cumulati

Wow! So I correctly described it? It's a student's work, there's no data attached, and the whole matter is about "greed to be the most significant predictor of unethical behavior" just expressed in class war terms.
