Yeah, but just putting a price tag on it wouldn't change anything about the structure of students. Those with money would still pay to study those same literature, psychology, pedagogy, law, etc. That's what happened in my home co

IMHO author is missing the historical perspective of DSL approach. In the time when SQL was developed, users simply needed a much higher level of tech skills than today. One older colleague told me once how he wrote his PhD thesis using ed

What is a laziness then? Does it even exists as "just being lazy", or it's all a spectrum of anxiety issues?

I think it's a bit misleading statistic, as most of that data being processes are probably just all kinds of sensors and diagnostic readings, so pretty dull stuff.

How exactly types and unit tests stop you from moving around the internal implementation? My impression was always that they help you in exactly that, allowing one to refactor any piece of code without worrying about unexpected side-effects

It's worth noting that the described flow could've been fully automated from within the Excel itself, with just a few macros and formulas. I've created a spreadsheet doing very similar thing (grabbing the exchange rate from n

Oh, yes, turbo button, the only thing more useless than caps lock :) Usually compound indexes are the best idea, but you need first to see what queries are running against DB to know what to add.

To me the core problem wasn't with the data model, it's just that a declarative approach to binding events and reactive updates that knockout, vue, react, etc. provide reduces significantly the amount of repetitive, boilerplate co

Michael Shellenberger is obviously pro-nuclear lobbyist, just look at the list of his articles, they're 100% all pushing the same narrative. That, on it's own, wouldn't be a huge problem, other energy options certainly have t

yup it's strange, for instance Serbian and Croatian are almost the same in many things (even used to be treated as one language for a long time before the political split), but still many common words have a different gender - e.g &quo

In 2014, when this was originally written, I'd totally agree - but it was 4.5 years ago and a lot of things have changed in the meantime. At the moment I'm dealing with one jQuery old-school project and while on one hand it's

True, but isn't it the same with the IDs? You still have the problem of honoring previously-issued URI templates when you change the format.

My kids at certain age (between 2-4 yo) picked up a lot of Spanish by simply watching youtube videos for 1-2 hours a day (their fav. cartoon at the time Pocoyo was in Spanish). Compared to my learning efforts it was definitely going much ea

I've been told recently by my kid's speech therapist that if kids don't pickup how to properly pronounce harder-to-say sounds like L and R up to 14 yo, they'll probably never learn it. Which leads to the same conclusion,

It's probably a close call. AFAIK analog oscilloscopes were used in X-Y mode as a form of vector monitors in about the same time (end of 50s), but plotters are probably a few years older.

IMHO this is pretty hard to read, unless I guess you work on code written this way every day (and most of us don't). It's not that I can't understand it, but it takes unnecessary extra effort and time to process. I want to be

Problem is not that people feel good, problem is that they're concentrating on insignificant actions and it gives them a false sense of doing enough - so they stop at that, guilty-free, but without doing anything actually impactful. It

Individual actions in this context are like trying to put down the fire with a single glass of water. It will certainly not hurt if you do it, but for it to have any significant effect you need everybody else to do the same at the same time
