   My high school physics teacher explained calculus to me by plotting a velocity curve, then saying the tangential line at a point (derivative) is acceleration and the area from 0 to that point under the curve (integral) was the distance trav

   Every aspect about the way people think is on a spectrum. There is also the split between those who have an inner monologue in their heads the those who don't. There's also studies showing these two populations astonished that th

    This reminded me of something that happened last week. I had written some code I found absolutely beautiful, then had to delete an hour later since the customer's requirements had changed. Personally, I find these situations dishearten

    This is one of the few shows where I've hated every main character at different times throughout the series. I just started my second time through and I'm interest to see if I feel the same.

    I don't totally disagree. My company uses the black formatter, which does this[0]. There are flags to skip string formatting, but is frowned upon at my organization. [0] https://github.com/psf/black/blob/

    While I agree with many points in this post, I wholeheartedly disagree that a 4 year bachelors in CS contributes much (if any) to the path from coder to developer.

    The problem with this is when you run it through a formatter that changes all ' to ".

    I didn't know about West Point's honor code, and found it ironic. At my university, in physics at least, it was a loud secret that all ROTC students shared answers for previous years testsand homeworks.

    Long time lover of the show, thanks for sharing! On a related note, this post reminded me to order some merch, but encountered an zip code error on checkout. Is this a known problem?

    I've always liked Don DeLillo. I especially liked this quote from the article, "Whatever technology is capable of doing becomes what it must do." I feel like that is a great summation of the world in tech today.

    It the parent, but I'll say that I'm someone who needs structure born from necessity. I love what I do, but I know I'd be in trouble if I didn't have to.

    CPUs might be a different story, but I have the same experience as others: if I've gotten counterfeit goods I haven't been able to tell. At that point I don't really care.

    This varies a lot. I had a take-home for a data engineer role which just asked to get and parse an xml and post a cleaned, limited json of the data. Took ~1hr. Perfect for an initial threshold.

    I disagree. If my office was open I would love to go in only if no one else was there. The benefit I get from an office is having a place designated for work. No people = no distractions
