I don't think that was good advice for your situation, it was more like an observation. The person who wrote it probably didn't even study math. It really depends on your interests. If you like math, sure, go for it. You can have

Go with CS. For most students, maths is the hardest part, but if you manage to stay on top of it, you'll be very much ahead of the field. Pay attention, always ask questions if you don't understand. If you don't understand, y

I agree that most students are terrible at studying, but most teachers also suck at teaching, especially at the university level, and especially in maths.

What do you use the sidebar for? With Ctrl+P I've never needed the sidebar. Also I like it better if the entire screen is dark. So I'm always in fullscreen with the sidebar hidden.

Genuinely curious why people upvoted this. A saner conclusion would be: If you want multi-cursor editing in your editor, don't use a gap buffer.

Very nice writeup! One thing I found strange is that multi-threading is ELI5, but the reader is expected to know what DOM means.

That's what the OP meant with "Yes. That's right." In C++ circles, this loosely translates to "Let's use this ridiculously unwieldy if not downright stupid mechanism to do something just because we can".

I don't know anything about you, so don't take me too seriously. If you tried to change something, and zero out of twenty people respond well to it at all, have you considered the possibility that it might be you, not them, that s

It's not about luxury or having a concierge. It's a basic trust issue. You can't trust AirBnB reviews. We had an issue with a place where we wanted to stay for a week in Italy. There was a very noticeable smell of paint/

For one, input and output size has to be fixed. All these NNs doing image transformations or recognition only work on fixed-size images. How would you sort a set of integers of arbitrary size using a neural network? What does "solve wi

There have been studies done with children that come to the same conclusion. For some reason, writing with pen and paper is better for recall. I don't know why, though.

While I would mostly agree, I would humbly suggest a small nudge in perspective: Boost does not equal Boost. While I passionately hate most of Boost, I find boost::optional to be one of the most useful template classes. So you shouldn'

I changed my mind and just bought a license. Bringing multi-cursor editing into the world is easily worth $70 (I think Sublime was the first?). And it's not just Sublime Users that benefited from this. I just exported a text file that

That is exactly the reason why I haven't bought a license yet. I consider the license an investment in Sublime's future. Since I don't have to pay, buying a license is more of a donation in order to show support. But the co

So your concern is that people will fix bugs, send PRs, learn from a review, improve the patch, and then just not send another PR? That seems like a very contrived problem.
