Agree. Also, as a consequence in the long run writing unit tests / automated tests is the only way for maintaining productivity in a complex project, as every required code change to an existent component poses a great risk, and withou

This crosses my mind from time to time, what physical properties sustain conciousness? Our brains, which is where we suppose our conciousness originates, is made (most likely) from the same sub-atomic particles inanimate objects are made of

I believe they should listen to this person, not because he's right nor wrong, but because he's made valid arguments about Alinea's value proposition. Entrepreneurs should always be open to criticism, distil it and take what

Thanks for sharing. It supports my general idea that even to progress in the "technical path" developing strong interpersonal and mentoring skills is essential.

Exactly. I was reflecting on this topic as well and for lack of a better word I started calling it "code fluency" [1]. These kind of programs select developers with much higher code fluency, which is usually the result of a deeper

Shameless plug: A couple of years ago I wrote an implementation of the huffman coding algorithm as well while studying it, along with unit tests. I was also interested in practicing OOP. You can find the result in the link below. - https:&

It sure will. Derivatives trading in ethereum is still incipient and somewhat inefficient. For instance, there is a lot of competing option trading protocols [1] (mainly for crypto assets) each one with it's advantages and disadvantage

Thanks man! Had to read about what Numeraire[1] means for answering, didn't know that concept! My approach was to treat all accepted stablecoins as having the same value pegged to the USD. Upon depositing tokens a conversion is made to

DeFi is a very innovative field indeed. What I find most appealing is that some popular derivative protocols are yet inefficient in some ways, which means there is a lot of room for new solutions to come along. For instance, I'm intere

Good question. From my point of view it's because megacorps are already too powerful entities with whom individual workers have little leverage for negotiating or influencing business decisions in favor of improved working environment

This is only one side of the coin. Unions can go that way, sure, and it should be avoided through regulation. Unions are a way of balancing the power equation between companies and workers. Neither side should be in disadvantage.

Here are my two cents on the subject: -- The need for complex numbers (...)? Complex numbers are just a mathematical tool. They are used to deal with calculations that involve magnitudes and phases, such as modeling qubit’s internal state.
