There is a difference between knowing how to find and use the ordered list of complexities for big O notation, and knowing these by heart. The difference is irrelevant when you design or code, but it’s important for interviews and exams.

First of all, you can rarely write down in English, what you want in 15 minutes… It’s even common to have longer specification, than its implementation. Just look at tests. Especially, if you want to do something which was never done before

It doesn't help. Unfortunately, we either get used to this, or just start to ignore public spaces more and more. Sensible discussion was probably always the exception, but at least it was easier to find pockets of sanity 10 years ago.

This list always bugged me. If Pixel - for example - starts to introduce security patches slower, they will change this list... or even ignore it. If something more secure comes into the picture, they will change this list, and they will di

There is no OS sandboxing and containerization which would prevent an internet facing software, like browsers, to be part of bot networks. These are good to have, just like how it's good to have an antivirus. In some cases. Most of the

As a coder, these are the exact problems which shouldn’t cause problems for you. You should be a coder because you’re better in these problems than others. More coders are needed, than to who these are “simple”, I understand. But, if you ha

There are 7 providers on that page which have higher output token price than $3.08. There is even 1 which has higher input token price than that. So that "all" is not true either.

Generally agree, that we shouldn’t jump on conclusions, but experts in my own field are doing bad things mainly because of lack of knowledge. With the lack of will as a very close contender for the top position. “The lack of possibility” is

We have robocalls, just not that much. I have 1-2 every months. Similar amount of spam SMS during the worst month. But I didn't get spam texts for months now. And my phone number is basically a public domain now. I have no idea the rea

I don't know how it is with companies, but there are countries where you can have subscriptions which allows you to call any EU numbers without a surcharge. And what I saw weren't even that expensive, around 50 euros/month.

I don’t use VPN generally, only in specific cases. For example, when I want to reach Australian news. Because of course, as a non Australian, I couldn’t care about local news. Or when American pages rather ban Europe than they would tell wh

Okay, but this causes me about 90% of my major annoyances. Seriously. It’s almost always these stupid country restrictions. I was in UK. I wanted to buy a movie ticket there. Fuck me, because I have an Austrian ip address, because modern mo

They are way more sloppy when the topic is for example poverty, inequality, etc. Economist has also problems with these kind of topics, but way less. I know people who prefer WSJ/Bloomberg/FT. All of them are from wealthy families
