If anyone is interested, the best textbook imo on computer arithmetic is Digital Arithmetic by Miloš D. Ercegovac. It's very extensive especially for hardware designers but it's a bit outdated and no easy read at all

Personally I wish Facebook to be destroyed, it's kind of a psychological cancer. I also guess Amazon can't be destroyed unless with a series of defeats within a very long period, it may be transformed into another Microsoft or IBM

Yes, I am sorry if that wasn't clear, I am not talking about sponsored ads, I am talking about ordinary posts, Facebook now doesn't let you reach more than 5% of your fans unless you pay, then they show a little by little dependin

I know I am going to be downvoted so hard, but really it's very easy to build you own css these days, css frameworks look an easy solution for beginning your project but they become a burden gradually as your project grows

Start a new company and exploit somebody else while earning all the big bucks and credit, that's how capitalism works.

> Scientists and engineers typically help the world, with or without money Of course they do, the actual change has always been done by engineers and scientists, however, history only remembers the rulers and recently entrepreneurs

Just like engineers, they think they are smart and they are changing the world and blablabla but it is actually all about billions and power going to the big guys

That's the real purpose of being "entrepreneur", "founder" or "co-founder". You get all the credit & $$$ without actually doing anything, the actual work is done by the salves you hire. They have t

Radical islam is the real danger on the west, I come from a middle eastern country and as an ex-muslim I know very well the danger of the islamization that has been going on in western Europe throughout the past 3 decades.

The current situation of Python's performance is really pathetic. Thanks for the project, we need to make Python great again otherwise the future is for Go, Elixir and Rust.

I meant real high IQ like most engineers & scientists, maybe IQ > 125 or 130. I guess there may be some relation between higher IQs and poor communication skills, less courage and other traits. But that's just a personal view wi
