I've watched the 3blue1brown essence of Linear Algebra series which is great tbh, but I've been trying to get a grip on Linear Algebra as I never took it in my CS program and found this video the other day and at the section &quot

Was curious how long it would take me to throw something like this together using React, TypeScript, and CSS Grid. Here it is if anyone's else is interested [0] (purposefully in a not super performant way for simplicities sake). Even t

I learned HTML and CSS mainly from MDN, so that's where I suggest you look. As for stuff I use in css most often I can only recommend a few articles and such. Learn how to use Flexbox and CSS Grid though for sure (as those are the two

Do you have 5G by chance? Have never really looked up 5G speeds until now, so I personally was suprised by what I found, but apparently the speeds can often be anywhere from 1Gbps to 10Gbps, so anywhere in that ballpark or possibly lower co

Apparently according to the article it's "Accessibility". I've always just heard it without the A to be honest until now.

If you don’t want any external dependencies and want to replace jQuery. Then one solution is the site titled “You might not need jQuery” [1]. It points out plenty jQuery methods that can be replaced with plain JS. I actually recently advise

I could do it, but I would likely have to have access to Dash [1] which is actually quite useful when you're on the go. I am a proud purchaser of Dash (though not at all affiliated with them), because it comes in handy when I'm so

Yes I agree, idea guys are bad, but I’d like to make a contrast between two words that are often thought of as synonymous. There’s the ‘idea’ guy and a man/woman with ‘vision’. The difference between these two is that someone with a vi

I totally disagree. I’ve only read one book about the topic of the dark triad, sympathy, and empathy, called Social Intelligence. Basically I’ll simplify the definitions for brevity’s sake. Sympathy is that you feel bad for someone. Empathy

I took Physics as an elective in University, but it really didn’t sharpen my Calculus skills. Which is sad, but probably because I did so bad in Calculus as an undergraduate. But, one thing I absolutely did take away from Physics was the id

A lot of tech book publishers actually release their books from their own websites in DRM free formats like epub, such as Manning, No Starch Press and often O'Reilly if you get them from the right place (humblebundle.com generally is a

I think that’s a nice take and I think it applies very well with piano. I am not the GP but I think perfect practice is more of an umbrella term. I think sometimes the perfect practice session would be a mindful practice other times or in o

I’ve heard a similar quote and I think I read it while I was playing Call Of Duty Modern Warfare about ten years ago, and for some reason it has stuck with me for all this time (probably because I see it as Truth.) I’m somewhat paraphrasing
