Not knocking your own choices, but its more the backlash to the 2013 "MOOCs are the greatest thing ever! KhanAcademy/EdX/Coursera! Wooo!" Personally, I love them and would love to work with those companies. In fact, when

I'd say be realistic and gear your streams to educating. If you think you need to make perfect code, you'll become frustrated when you simply don't know something. As good/evil as SO and Googling are to our ability to re

Realistically, how is it any different than any of these types of tools? How does Subform differ from Webflow and why should Webflow users switch? Or is it more of a "hope the customer doesn't know the other options yet" appr

I've had this discussion with people before. It both sounds good and not depending on the viewpoint. The good is already spoken about in the article - I generate data that a company is in turn using to make money. The analogy I have us

I think a good follow up, if you have the time, would be to read through the BBC article that is also on the front page about the benefits of being a loner. The two articles seem to be arguing for different sides of the same issue.

In Ebbinghaus' original work, it is simply about memorizing syllables. However, that is only a small percentage of learning harder skills like computer science (learning syntax), language (learning words), or even acting (learning line

I'm curious if there is any research in Computer Science Education / Software Engineering that looks at some of the more holistic aspects of group work. One of the supporting arguments for things like paired programming is the ide

There something enjoyable about all the bad homepages of the 90s. Pictures of people still seem "old" because the frequency you'd get to see how you looked was so stretched out. Even rpeden's first picture is an example

Take a look at my previous comment about pro wrestling; I think it has some merit. The idea that we like to have some human connection and see growth in someone's work gets tainted when you say it was built by a bot

Firstly if you have time, I'd recommend watching Max Landis' Wresting Isn't Wrestling [1]. Warning, its a 30 minutes comedy, but to get his message you really do have to watch it all. Just as Landis says, most of wrestling su

My apologies, you are correct. I suppose what I was attempting to say was that the connection between video game referee and child rapist was a weak connection due to the relation of "judgement of character". The statements "

The issue is that "child rapist" implies "poor judgment of character". This implication cannot be made because there are plenty of accounts where "non-child rapist" have "poor judgement of character".

Would you happen to have any literature on practice in Computer Science? I've read through most of Ericsson's work on deliberate practice but would love to find more. My PhD research is on examining the benefit of different CS exe

Its interesting to think about this. During my undergraduate studies, I dual majored in Computer Science and Theater (to offset the pure science of CS). One of the first aspects of performance is obviously "learning your lines". I

I don't see myself coloring the pages in; primarily as I wouldn't want to use up any resources. Granted, I'm a 30+ PhD student, so I might not be the targeted market. The only things I have of differing colors are dry erase

Not to be a jerk, but that's a discipline matter - you need to do what you need to do to maintain attention. Too much heating in my car in the winter and I get drowsy as well; and that's a situation where I need to be VERY engaged
