Uninvited and super annoying audio starts playing within 10 seconds when I open this page. And not just one, but two audio streams overlapping each other. Took me a minute to figure out why my background music suddenly went to shit. Didn&#x

No offense to the Martian mission but I probably got better enjoyment and insight out of the movie so far than the actual mission. Not that it is or should be the only metric, but is the metric that matters to me today.

Do you mean comparing a Hollywood movie to a Mars rocket is an apples to apples comparison ? Movie budget is dependent on actors, CGI and marketing. I'm sure if they had hired Matt Damon to ride their rocket to Mars, it might have doub

The first thing that comes to my mind when I see a resume like yours is that do you have any real experience or just a line claiming your did the bootcamp? Depending in what you learned, do you have a portfolio of released apps and software

I agree. It reminds me of the quote "Civilization is built on what men give back to the society, not what they require from the society." While I know it can improve standards of living for a ton of people if they were allowed to

This seems to be the problem: ""Initially when I applied for indefinite leave to remain I got it no problem at all. So I thought when you're married down here, you're entitled to be here. "The kids are born here, my

If anyone loves video games, but wants to able to pace the habit somehow, thought I will mention this thing: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UY0TS9A/ It's a pre-commitment device and works great for many things,

Thanks, this makes the most sense to me. The problem more generally stated then for more fields is that how much abstraction do we carry innately and how much must be taught. Applies to math as well. It appears to me that ability to count i

Then why teach grammar at all if we know kids pick it up naturally? There seems to be a threshold beyond grammer needs to be taught? Or was the hypothesis that there is no such thing.

I am surprised this required research. How is this not obvious ? What's next ? Algebra skills and essay writing? You could pretty much do this research for every thing we ever learn from school to college and publish endless amount of

you need at least two things to accomplish this: - You need to have a personal knowledge base system - You need to have a system to review this. Either using randomization, flashcards or some other method. For example, you could use Evernot

Right now, it doesn't work at all. Would be great to test and iterate on it a bit and to have some sense to the answers before exposing it to the world.

It doesn't work like that. Lower CPC does not mean lower value. It just means Google pushing into new eco-systems where CPCs are different from desktop search (e.g. mobile, YT, new publishers/partners) and it may take some time to

In finance its not hard to make. What is hard is to get hired for those roles: great school, do awesome in interviews that involve software, math, probability domains. On the buy side (hedge funds), you will be easily making that much in 2-

I just used calm at work and then read this right after. Weirdest coincidence I've had in recent times. I couldn't have imagined this guy is doing Calm in a million years. Thank you for pivoting this way. Its such a great app. Lo

And its called "Silicon Valley Bank" on top of that. You would think they would be the first to adopt tech, not the last. Do banks still have any legal reasons to not allow paperless statements ?

The article is overly narrow in its interpretation of her comment - its a figure of speech saying that yes hard work matters. Sometimes execution and its extent matters a lot more than the idea itself. She didn't qualify it by saying n

Dude, you are a few years too late to the party. It's already part of most tech things you may use on a daily basis, without knowing it.

Great advice all around. Some advice that may not be obvious: Keep extensive notes about stuff that you refer to repeatedly. This may include code snippets, test examples, shell commandlines, and so on. Over time, a good programmer can accu

Interesting reply - 8 figures is enough for taking a break and do other things. Is there a reason you've still stuck to being an employee ?

What is your concise summary of the biggest accusation that demands justice ? I fail to understand from the bloomberg article as it seems to make all accusations petty and even harmful to her case.

Well how are you so sure of that ? You must have verified or modeled it somehow I guess. Wait... you haven't.

Thanks - your answer is reasonable. What I was really looking for is a mechanism that demonstrates this: "Animals appear to be delineated by clear species simply as a function of our perspective from a single time slice. If we could ob

Then what is evolution trying to explain ? I thought it was explaining how primates evolved to humans, not just micro evolution at the DNA level ? For all practical purposes these are considered stable states in that they are different enou
