This is up there with The Art of Computer Programming for me as a text that has clearly been painstakingly crafted by its author. It shares as well with TAOCP that it is simultaneously so many things: an introduction to programming language

I'm really enjoying my LG 27EP950. I got it for 40% off on Amazon. The blacks and colors are amazing and the text clarity is pretty great. Really the only thing I would change is the refresh rate, but I am used to 60Hz again at this po

The laptop I have does have a "MUX switch" but is controlled in software. As far as I understand, the benefits of the MUX switch are primarily to graphics performance when working with the discrete GPU. At any rate, my laptop (G14

the information available and advertised to most 17-year-olds (back when I was browsing: US News, College Confidential) isn't much of an improvement. In my case the former relies on a bunch of bunk data and weird metrics for evaluation
