Good luck with your interviews! Unlikely for me to have videos in time for your interviews, though. I'm sure however that you can find other sources on the internet to learn. What have you tried?

Nice! I have watched both videos and they are engaging (to me). I think they could use a little bit of more speed and some music or explanations. Also, you could show at the beginning what you are about to make. I have recently needed to st

Thanks! I'm very glad when someone finds my videos useful. There are also videos on quick-sort and merge-sort on the channel and I'm planning on doing bubble-sort, selection sort, heap-sort, and radix-sort in the future.

Hi! It is in my plans for the future. I'm currently concentrating on sorting and searching algorithms. What exactly in bitwise operations would you find interesting?

I programatically create educational videos on fundamental algorithms and data structures, a side project that I'm very excited about. I'm creating the videos using Python and the manim library. My latest video is on insertion sor

For anyone wondering what 3Blue1Brown is, it's a top Youtube channel with very nicely made explanatory videos for math. The videos on linear algebra in particular are worth it, especially if you do any sort of machine learning: https:

From the second paragraph in the abstract, it seems that they adjust for age: "Mortality rates from clinical studies were corrected for age, sex, and diabetes."

I have just noticed them today, but they are very useful! A big "thank you!" to whomever implemented them.

It depends. I can tell you that (1) you don't really need it for an industry career and (2) you surely need it if going into academia. On the downsides, a PhD means a number of your best years spent with a lowish salary and without a c

This will lead IMO to an interesting problem, although the technology and the idea is certainly cool. Currently many programmers do not take the time to really understand how/why their code works -- programming without understanding 1.

Sure, by need, but I definitely prefer a desk!

The interesting content is still there, but it is hidden under SEOed content. It is simply not as popular in relative terms. Most of the popular content you see on FB or other aggregators are simply "preview"s to get your money. A

This is a good point, but still most creators are professionals in the sense of trying to make money out of it (not necessarily a bad thing), whereas in the early web most people with websites were hobbyists eager to share what they know.

Very nice! I currently use Inkscape (slow) and Krita (a bit difficult to get started with) to edit SVGs. Your tool seems very promising, but it is currently missing a few bits that would be important for me (color fill, gradients, text, lay

Not a tech worker per se, but I do teach computer science at a higher education institution. Pre-covid, my professional satisfaction came mostly from interacting with students. The academic freedom to explore essentially whatever you are in

Depending on what you are after, you may be better off implementing the code yourself. You will learn much more than by simply seeing the entire code already implemented. If you however need a strong implementation of some algorithm to use

Thanks for sharing, this looks very nice and quite polished. This could be useful for my project. What is the best way to import this into wordpress? Is there a to have it as a custom wordpress block?

Teaching intro classes is indeed difficult. I like how some universities have dedicated staff for this (who are paid to only teach and not do research).

I haven't, the builtin ones are good enough for my project. Sounds interesting though to keep in mind.

It is true to some extent, but not all instructors at some universities are that good. You are probably experiencing a two-sided selection bias, since they (1) wouldn't upload a bad video and (2) you wouldn't follow something you

I don't know how they choose the lectures that they put online, but I can tell you that the effort needed to do so for a lecture is not at all trivial. From having researched things a bit myself, you need (at least) an in-class camerap

I think that the will power to go through 3 or 4 years worth of lectures on your own would be the main blocker. The main benefit to in-class learning is that your peers drive you, and you drive your peers. As a not-on-campus-learner, you sh

For large projects, sure. But most uses are small one offs.

It seems clear that the more a language is used, the more a programmer will makes searches. Not a linear relation, but it is common sense.

The MIT lectures in general are very good quality and these ones in particular are a treasure trove. I would have loved access to something like this when I was a student. The MITOCW channel on Youtube has many more for those who are intere

This is a huge list, and surely interesting, but which methods are the best? Going for everything there would be time wasted.

I find that it is a good proxy for how much each language is being used.

This is nice, but not really much of a surprise. With tons of ready-to-use libraries for string processing, machine learning, images, graphics, game development, web, etc., there is not much to dislike about it. It is my goto language for q
