No, it’s a forum. Everyone sees the exact same website (except for user-setting tweaks). There is no concept of “friends” or “followers”. The wensite intentionally looks boring so that the design doesn’t lure you too stick around too long.

I’m finding myself more and more nervous about any powdered foods, regardless of the ingredient list. It’s so easy for some sub-supplier to slip in something extra, just to boost their profits by 5-10%. My cooking uses turmeric frequently,

You're reading the worst possible interpretation of that quote, and applying it to all situations. Of course it's not valid for some mundane field - Ford delivered a whole new form of movement to the masses. It would be like if ma

Not trying to nitpick, but the phrase "AI is just like another function" is too charitable in my opinion. A function, in mathematics as well as programming, transforms a given input into a specific output in the codomain space. Pe

A few books which I enjoyed that are somewhat on the subject of polymathy: - The Polymath by Waqas Ahmed. This one directly discusses polymathy in history, and how our "natural state" really is of that of the polymath, not the spe

There is so much pressure to be a specialist in today's corporate world. Specialists are like cogs in a machine - they can be swapped in and out with relative ease, compared to a generalist part/employee that does a lot of undefin

I work for an EU-based consulting company (a la Thoughtworks in the EU), and am personally based in the US. My two cents is that the European leadership is fairly ignorant of modern technology and software practices. The instead choose to l
