Christianity has bred all sorts of craziness, too. Westboro Baptist church, the inquisition, etc. There are very extreme/fringe elements in christianity and elsewhere. Because they are so extreme they are necessarily more "visible

In one day of interviews I variously had to use: * Dijkstras * Something I later learned were called powersets * KMeans * Dynamic programming It was intense. I think I entered a fugue state. Got the job, too!

"...those galaxies will escape their fate." --- I just found it odd that the author of this article anthropomorphized the galaxies.

Maybe. It didn't scare off me, though. It piqued my interest!

Well, games and play have been a part of the human condition for thousands of years. It's not rational, but its definitely human. Instead of thinking "what can I get?" just revel in the players own sense of joy and mastery.

Hey, I know you care a lot about this forum. Sometimes its easy to forget what this place means to some folks and just do a drive-by shitpost. I hear you.

Also typically more complicated and require a separate compaction process. They're good for writing lots of data, but not so great for random reads.

What's the catch? Why all the flashy marketing juju? Why would someone put so much time into making the site all..."designed"? And this: > "Nitrux is made with <3 by people like you" What the fuck? This is som

I hear you, its like saying alcohol is just a chemical. Which is true of course. But I think it's naive and idealistic. Taken to an extreme, you could say people are just chemicals and electrical impulses, right? But that's crazy.

I'm pretty sure, if you are offended by the word God, you can substitute another word, such as "Ayn Rand" or "the human intellect". Nobodys insisting that you have to do...anything really.

Yeah, it has quite a bit of marketing juju going on, which flies in the face of the "just for fun" disclaimer. If its just for fun, why push it so hard? The testimonials is especially cringe. Its not just another web framework, it

This trips up a lot of newbies who have no concept of connection management or scope. I routinely get questions about it in regards to the orm library I wrote, which includes a connection pool of course. Another thing to be aware of with po

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. Just because we can't see it or measure it doesn't mean there's nothing there. Fascinating to get some insight into how scientists con

It's risky to tie up your ego, or sense of self, with being anything other than yourSelf. When I started out coding in my career I had a huge chip on my shoulder. I needed a popular project on github, I needed to be given that big new

I authored a python binding and have some experience that may be relevant. The library seems poorly maintained in my opinion and might be abandoned. There have been critical bugs leading to data loss. They have a similar project vedis which

I'm the author of that library. I've worked to make sure all the unqlite features are available (transactions, cursors, jx9 vms, collections) and the interfaces are pythonic. Performance is good. Why not submit issues or patches i
