That's a good question. I would say architectures and data structures, generally. We tend to get into the weeds as programmers, but 9/10ths of it is the above. If you approach the problem in the right way, everything is easy. T

It's really not -- at least not in the finer things, which is what we're talking about. Yes, you can enjoy pistachio ice cream; feel free. But the Louvre doesn't choose what it puts on its walls randomly. The curators don&#

I think you missed my point by taking the example too literally. I'm saying that being well-educated (in a classical sense -- deeply knowing Latin, Greek, Philosophy, Mythology, etc) used to be considered impressive. It would dictate

The famous French author Guy de Maupassant hated the Eiffel Tower so much that he ate lunch exclusively in the restaurant there because "it was the place in Paris where you couldn't see the Eiffel Tower." It's beautiful

I love that this is down-voted, and in doing so validated.

That's a fine, valid rationalization. But I would disagree with one aspect: part of it is that they like it . We don't have fine taste anymore and we don't have a desire to impress in a classical way. It used to be you wou

I think it's a really interesting question, but more towards: Will people stop having real relationships? The 2013 Spike Jonze film "Her" explores this a bit. Relationships are tough because neither person is perfect. So wh

The current S&P500 10-year P/E Ratio is 29.3 So many people desperate to help me sell my position! Wow. Thanks.

I think it will be a case study in late-empire corruption and the failure of propaganda. There's a reason the "buy" (not sell) button was turned off for a day on $GME alone. That's market manipulation. There's a r

Normally it wouldn't hit 100% but this isn't remotely a normal case. Further, each percentage point more DRSed, causes huge problems for these hedge funds who naked shorted.

Why do I need to show profits after six months? Would you say that of AAPL? I'm convinced that the hedge funds didn't close their shorts. Like legions of others, I've directly registered my shares and am willing to wait.

That's bizarre logic. I'm a fan of Superstonk (WSB is long over). There's another couple years to go to see the track record. We'll see.

Yeah, exactly. It was I think the third that I found as I looked at 'new' and I got annoyed.

It also happened before Musk purchased it. This subject has appeared three or four times in the last two days. It's too much. Can we please talk about interesting things?

If you're asking, here's what I would do. I would build the business case for the app. Sure, make a demo. Get feedback. Push it until it's clear there's a strong demand for the product, rather than an assumption that

I think assembly isn't a great way to do that. If you are looking to set yourself apart to others in terms of applying to universities (I'm assuming) then I would focus on full-stack and making complete sites/apps that are en

There certainly seems like an unhealthy obsession and irrational anger towards him. And why is there a new Twitter story every two minutes? It's driving me nuts. I feel like no one has anything better to do.

It's not a problem at all. Until 16, school is mandatory. They will accept your child or children at the local public school at any point when you arrive. Do your children speak English? It can be incredibly daunting to start in a n
