IMO, that's a bit too cynical. How could a business grow if it doesn't create any values at all? Reality is more nuanced and what can be considered 'value' are harder to tell but overall I think one should always strive

A bit late but if you want to we can discuss by email (my address is in the profile). I might not be able to help much but if you have no lead so far, a native Vietnamese is better than nothing :)

Oh Hello, I found your reply on one of my posts awhile ago. At first I was puzzled, but then I recognised the writing style. It's nice that you were able to stay in the States. I am still in Vietnam advocating for FLOSS and GNU/Li

I thought the rumour here says that the fake coffee is made of roasted soybean (to add bulk), quinine (bitter), gelatin (thickness), not ready made artificial flavourings as was tested in the article. Although I highly doubt that there is n

I thought the article was talking about eating food contaminated with dirt reading its title. Which I happen to agree with, small doses of bacteria do wonder for my immune system. It turned out to be an article of counterargument against an

I like the principle of Stoicism. But I don't see how can that help with the suffering of the people I care about. I am fine with losing my job, my home or my social position (or at least so I think), but what about my spouse? my child

The optimised process was only for weight and strength, not manufacturing. How would you craft the right one? by 3D printing? Good luck with the required strength, while the human designed one would cost a few dozens bucks here, hand welded

Ditto. Back then my parent often locked the room with the computer so that I could 'focus' on my study instead. And this guide helped my learning about pascal, C and then x86 assembly (when my father got so frustrated he took out

Can you please elaborate further? I think PulseAudio's timer based scheduling is a big improvement over interrupt driven one. Bluetooth audio just works, per application volume control, audio streaming and switching audio sink is painl

I think people will just mark anything they don't like as disputed. IMO they can try suggesting posts with different view points than the one users click 'share' or 'like' (combining ML and user provided data to pic

I read somewhere that they wore gloves before applying the poison. Wikipedia has something interesting about VX: > VX can also be delivered in binary chemical weapons which mix in-flight to form the agent prior to release. Binary VX is r

Matt Warren's blog is great to learn about the internal mechanism of .Net. I wonder if there is any similar blog for JVM world, so far I have only know Mechanical Sympathy[1] but it doesn't seem as comprehensive. [1] https:/

My company also have a lot of problems with Scala, both technical and non technical ones, but so far we have managed to control it: - As for slow compilation times, incremental building helps a lot. - Intellij works most of the time, and if
