You must have been a very sincere and disciplined student. :) In my case, when I was studying, I had all the time in the world. During that time, I did try to learn many things but I didn't go deep or weren't consistent. I mostly

I read, like 10-15 posts daily on social media where people mentions that they have decided to postpone parenthood simply because their circumstances aren't favorable (mostly finance related). When I read about Holmes in light of thos

God knows what is going on on the minds of remaining employees. I guess most of them want to quit but couldn't for variety of reasons (such as visa issues). And some may be too deep in awe of Musk to quit.

I wish someone can suggest me similar links for Python. Asynchronous programming has always been elusive to me.

You are implying that CZ is doing something more legit and transparent. I belive both were on the same boat and playing the same game. It is just that FTX lost the game first.

This is the most important thing I was wondering about. If crypto businesses are shady and Ponzi schemes and these crypto guys are working mostly behind the scene, why would a VC like Sequoia invest in such firms? I somehow feel firms like

I am 100% sure he must have siphoned off some sizable part of his net worth in cash or other non-crypto assets.

Google's portfolio is a bit more diversified than FB. Besides, Google services have some value, they offer some essential services. FB not so much. Besides, Google is trying 50 different things but it didn't go full throttle on an

Serious and an honest question. Does HN crowd in general not resort to pirating music? Obviously piracy is unethical but it is the best way I can enjoy music. No ads. I still have all the songs I had like 20 years back. And many other posit

An idea, when actually executed, transform the original idea. It doesn't necessarily means that your plan or objectives have changed. It is mostly that your idea, post execution, bears different look, feel and meaning. So, always try t

I was diagnosed with Dysthymia and ADHD. One thing I've been noticing since last few years is that my situation gets a lot worse in winter season (India). Winters have always been depressing. Is that a thing? Or am I making things up?

I practically don't know anybody (except for tech literate guys) who doesn't install non-Play store apps because of security reasons. Also, average guy doesn't know about APK stuff. If another app store is allowed, people wil

Twitter might be dead in few years. But it doesn't mean some other Twitter clone would have replaced Twitter. People like novelty. People would migrate to other venues which will be novel rather than to Twitter clones. In current scena

It is funny to read top comment and then your comment. The thing you are admiring about him is the same thing top commentor is criticizing.

I once read about an acquisition attempt by Google which eventually failed because Google found codebase less than impressive. So I guess this is normal to review codebase before a buyout.

Anecdotal rant but I believe it is generally true. I am 42 and until 3 years back I was quite active on Twitter. And I know many many accounts (from different demographies, personally unknown to me), were also quite active back in the day.

I tried reading that book and I can't say I followed everything smoothly. For each chapter, I had to read 10 other articles to better understand the material, though I admit I am not very well versed with the subject matter. But yeah,

I don't follow chess much except for some headlines. Carlson is legend and Niemann practically nobody. This is very common tendency to side with legends in any field. But in this case, it is not like Carlson lost the game only for the

Many many years back, when I knew nothing of programming and very little of tech words, I used to wonder why people don't use Linux instead of Windows if it is so great. Then I realized Linux is good for nerds. For the rest of tech ign

I am not much into JS but I have seen countless jokes about JS/NPM having so many modules. I never understood why JS/NPM ecosystem has so many modules? I guess JS isn't that versatile language.

In my case, WA would show me a message to the effect after some specific period, I had to pay but when that period passed, nothing happened. So in effect, I never paid anything as a android user.
