I look after a part of product development in a large ecommerce company. I have at least one valid use case for university level math per week. And I hate myself for having let my math skills slide in the 6 years since I left physics. That&

How come so many are complaining about this being a notation issue? It is as standard a notation I've ever seen for expressing this. It's perfectly okay to be an engineer/developer and not read that on the spot. But if you&#x

Over a decade ago I worked at one of the big semiconductor manufacturing R&D outfits (there's very few of those in the world) and the mirror making for EUV lithography R&D was done by polishing by hand at the end by two guys wi

I'm working for a very successful Internet company with 9 figure user count. We have 7 or 8 POPs on 4 continents and run a low 5 digit number of servers. This being said: we do not have to deal with anything like the network effect and
