Comment on "Kindle breaks easily". I have different experience. About 6 years ago I got Kindle for my birthday. Happily used it for half a year and then misplaced and couldn't find it for another half a year. Then I found it

I used AngularJS 1 a lot, but the second version felt overkill for my small to medium sized projects. I found vue.js and never looked back. Vue.js framework is everything I wished AngularJS 2 would be. Very happy with its progress as well.

This describes well how I use Mathematica. I would also add that compared to Matlab you pay for single license and get whole thing. With Matlab you send list of toolboxes to a manager and got asked "Do you really need symbolic toolbox?

Starting with version 9 Mathematica has built in integration with R. So you can use R in a seamless way from you Mathematica notebooks: https://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/new-in-9/built-in-integr...

From what I've read, Wolfram is a very micromanaging [1], so he probably did have his input in all of the features. He mostly states it himself: Hundreds of us have been energetically working on building this for the past two years—an

This study shows that a major factor is confidence rather than performance. Since levels of testosterone are related to confidence it might be hard to resolve this issue.

Not sure which is bigger effect here - cultural or physiological. It just can have something to do with testosterone which male students have higher levels than female. Here is an example of article describing effect of testosterone on conf

A => B does not mean !B => !A. In US (culturally): "Good dental hygiene" => "You floss". So dentists looking in your mouth can guess if you floss. However in Europe flossing is not as common and the link breaks.

My father in law is a dentist in Germany and he never recommended flossing. In fact flossing is not common in Germany and we don't hear that Germans have very bad teeth compared to Americans. So although dentists could notice if you ha

As I mentioned in previous comment - companies would do this in case they really want a candidate but feel that previous compensation is somewhat above the market. They OK to pay market rate (if you can prove that) but are weary that a cand

vue.js https://vuejs.org/ Edit: I used NG1 a lot and liked it. But after trying NG2 I felt it to be really too complex for small to medium projects. Vue.js is what I hoped NG2 to become.
