Dependence on assistantialism is a real phenomenon. Here in Colombia (and probably all over the developing world?) it has been well proven that permanent help does create complacency and dependency. Help must be conditioned to effort and ha

10 million is stretching it, but it's not uncommon for failed startups to get acquihired (their tech/customers are still valuable for another business) and the founder know-how is valuable for making those assets productive. So th

I wonder how many wild animals would be killed and eaten yearly in a world without humans. Are those deaths horrific too? Would the earth itself be a horrific hellhole given it would be sustaining billions of deaths, each year? I have never

Biased comment from a local: I don't think it's dismal at all. Unsafe depending on zone, bad traffic and rainy. Those are it's main faults. But it has many advantages. But you can get most anywhere worth going in a bike, and

37dba is practically nothing. Like a very soft whisper from a couple meters away. Remember the scale is logarithmic, 37 is almost 2 orders of magnitude below 52.

Besides the security part, many companies us that data in their Machine Learning models. I've used it myself extensively over the past 10 years in Fintech. As a small tidbit of information, did you know iPhone users are ~40% less likel

Your exercise can't: 1. Tell me who other people's friends are. 2. Change it's output if a spammer stops pinging after 1 hour. 3. Count the amount of times a person has pinged in their lifetimes. 4. Build a pyramid 5. Output

SEO has changed a lot over the past year. It is now very hard to be featured on the top of the first page even with the best content. Several colleagues have seen their search engine traffic plummet 50-80%. I recommend going for other marke

Always go cheap on tools you are trying out. If 6 months pass and you are still using it, and notice it not being enough for your use, then get a quality one. I've seen many quality tools that have been used once or twice after years,

Completely agree. As commented elsewhere, the main driver in true learning is practice. I also wholly reject the idea that this "edutainment" content is useless. Same as spaced repetition, once you see some concepts often enough (

What APIs were broken? They couldn't be in the standard library. If the dependency was in external modules and you didn't have pinned versions, then it is to be expected (in almost any active language) that some APIs will break.
