"51% of people want spin-up, 49% of people want spin-down, therefore we are going to be a spin-up only society". That right there is the problem with Democracy. Democracy finds controversy, but it does absolutely nothing about it.

This is very ominous. In other words, don't build a RN app because, if it takes off, Facebook can copy the business model independently and claim it as their own. And, if you try to do anything about it, your license to use RN is revok

Recently, someone shared a link on Hacker News to this website: https://pomax.github.io/nrGrammar/ . If you look carefully in section 1.1.4, which aims to visually compare the differences between the Hiragana and Kataka

I would recommend the Feynman lectures for advanced undergraduates in physics. I don't think a beginner would be able to fully appreciate them. That said, if you've got great math skills, it might be worth a shot.

LinkedIn is bloody awful. I get email notifications and then i click them and they ask me to sign in. Yeah, no thanks. I don't think looking up my password just to sign in is worth using the app on mobile.

I like your format here. Humans tend to make snap judgements before they think. For example, when they read something, their mind jumps to a "agree" or "disagree" state much faster than they can actually sit and think ab

Actually, I would recommend focusing on Linear Algebra before you delve into Matrix Algebra. Some universities offer courses on Matrix manipulation, which is too superficial. Learn vector spaces, basis, orthogonality, operators, transformat

I'm from a physics background, and I am pretty confident that Linear Algebra is sufficient. Please know variational calculus, as well. You'd think you need a bunch of statistics, but I think highly specific statistics is unnecessa

on the contrary, i believe the opposite is more likely. humans will become more connected to the devices they invent -- not less. food for thought: canonical design will be a thing of the past -- instead, devices will be designed for the us

Gotta admit, the first two paragraphs of this post made me stop reading it. Then I scrolled to the bottom thinking "what a silly article" until I read the last sentence. :> everythings ok now

physics ruined me. whenever i encounter a number now, i round it to the closest order of 10. you'll likely not encounter a number outside the range [10^-34,10^40], so you really just need to know how to subtract -34 from 40 and everyth
