I can't infer whether 80s LA was worse or better than Beijing today from your comment.

On the other hand think of it from their perspective if you want your odds of success to be higher you have to focus on the biggest user base, simple 80/20. I doubt that an additional feature vs friefox support is a fair comparison.

Out of curiosity is it correct to assume launch at the equator going east adds 24,000 miles circumference / 24 hrs = ~1000mph

Is there a command needed in pipenv like the one needed in virtualenv? eg. > source env/bin/activate How does one activate one environment over another? Why is pipsi a separate thing?

That would be great. My understanding is very shallow, last bio class was in high school. But I'd be applying for admission in ~September or self learning on the side. My email is my username at gmail.

What are the challenges in bio like compared to tech industry interms of innovatation, opportunity, or otherwise? I'm considering transition in that direction.

Can you recommend good resources (article/pdf, lynda, etc.) on writing tests? Less about the how (though important too) - but more about when, why, and for what parts/functionality. I find when I do write tests some are so trivial

Is a synthetic diamond chemically equivalent to a real one? Great that price is dropping.

My impressions is that most people still care about real diamonds though. Have thongs changed? Have prices changed?

Is it though? We might not understand it fully, but we understand it's role in allowing us to make quick decisions and not overload our cognition with the mundane.

We know humans go by intuition first (the book Rightous Mind supports this if you want o read further). So why isn't this something that's in the realm of possibility for computers?

I disagree. There's a difference between a progress bar that could just be a spinner or no progress bar at all because it's fake. And a progress bar that attempts to communicate real progress.

Definitely, that one is bad. I don't care for you to show me what you did in an animation I just want to go to the next step. Stop wasting my time. Though I did find some steps where it made you think it was checking stuff you could ac

Somewhere in all this we need to study people's willingness to do things they don't understand. Humans have been creative risk taker as well as sheep through out time. I wonder how many of these people are creative risk takers and

You definitely make good points and I agree the cut corners are a big issue. However I'm under the impression that there are ledgers that are meticulously kept which track all balances, debt, and cash issuance which need to balance out

The same trust/consensus is needed with Crypto. The only thing crypto has over USD is that we can be certain of its issuing policy (but even then a fork could change that). I trust USD issuing, the federal reserve, and American militar

The two things I found (can be positive or negative), is that the consultant isn't tied to the familial expectation of employees at a company giving them more freedom, and they typically don't have much stake (except fees). This m
