I wish this stupid podcast would die already. It's a podcast in which misinformation is spread at a massive scale, under the guise of "I'm just asking questions". The initial quirky, fun nature of this podcast died out a

I wish this kind of thinking would die. 9 times out of 10 when I'm working on a large code base at (any company I've worked at so far), the main problem I have is with disorganized, messy code with poor abstractions, state everywh

You want to join Uber because you think Bazel is cool tech? Having spent the last few weeks of my life converting our build system to Bazel I guarantee you it's far from what I would consider cool. It's more of a necessary evil be

Pretty much the only reasonable explanation here. His twitter mentions are full of conservative types showering praise at him. I think its brilliantly cynical

It's a reference to Ayn Rand's book Atlas Shrugged. It's sort of a libertarian bible. The Atlas in that book title refers to people like Elon Musk (industrialists, capitalists etc.) who want to carry the weight of the world o

Is it just me or the site doesn't stand out as something special? It looks good, don't get me wrong, but it isn't "beautiful" in the deeper sense of the word

Each story was impactful, either at a local, national or global level. Congratulations to the winners. We need more courageous and thoughtful journalism.

No it couldn't have been prevented under the current system of global capitalism. No market forces means no research done by private companies. This kind of forward thinking project requires billions of dollars of funding by the govern

Have you accounted for the human suffering caused by the loss of those lives on the survivors? How many jobs is that worth?

On one hand this comparison sucks because their C++ is quite non idiomatic, in the other hand it reflects something about C++. Why is it so easy to write non idiomatic C++? And so much so that it's much slower than a garbage collected

That's what I would do. Would never trust floating point numbers with something as important as currency.

Arbitrary sized decimals? How do you deal with floating point math problems?

I would recommend learning Clojure because you can immediately build useful and fun programs with it (e.g. websites with Clojurescript/Reagent).

Isn't this line of thinking which has held physics back for the past few decades? I thought that physics is gradually moving to being more data driven than being driven by ideas of beauty. Sabine Hossenfelder has written quite a bit ab

I think its implied that having idiomatic code is better than not having idiomatic code.

I don't hate you I pity you. Applied for Big N jobs last year, had to study leetcode for 1 month and I hated my life. I was legit depressed. I was already so busy at work and coming home to do leetcode just killed all motivation and ha

Thanks for assuming my background. Rest assured I grew up in poverty that few have experienced, even in the third world country where I grew up. Moreover, i don't really care about your lived experience and I don't think you shoul

We are talking about the majority of the reason why people use Airbnb. It's used as a replacement for hotels for people on vacation. Of course having a cheap place to stay for people who can't afford hotels when they're trave

You're a tourist going to another city on vacation or other reasons. You're middle class and thus part of the problem for the lower class people of that city.

I think we are entering a stage of the world where particular regions can't have their own esoteric customs/traditions if you want to have a global economy and trade. Actions taken by people around the world affect everyone. Are w

It's possible that these viruses jumped to humans all the time in the past and killed a particular village, town, city. Now we have global travel enabled by planes/cruises/cars. The spread is what's killing us with this
