I have always seen LeetCode problems as effectively hazing rituals in a job interview setting. A high pressure interview situation simply won’t bring out peak problem-solving capabilities in many people. At best you get some superficial ins

How would changing the mechanics of grading affect graduate readiness for jobs? I think two separate ideas are being conflated. Whether or not someone gets an A or a C in a course for Physics likely will not have any bearing on the needs of

In terms of raw output, the answer is likely no. However, this might not matter as much now as it did in the past due to nuclear weapons being the primary deterrent in war these days, and the fact that our standing fleet of aircraft, aircra

In theory this is beneficial as it helps fund the ICANN and keep it independent. But the reality is that these are effectively money printing machines, effectively out of reach for all but large corporations, which bring questionable value

Wouldn't having a demonstrably false accuracy rate, but simultaneously claiming to be 99% accurate in all circumstances constitute making knowingly false statements, and perhaps even malicious disregard for truth?

I personally hope this will be the course of action we see being taken against these AI detector services. It is well-known to many that these are essentially snake oil salesmen, and it has been damaging in other contexts too, such as in ac

This doesn't work, when we tried this most recently all it did was increase stock buybacks by large corps. It's just effectively a wealth transfer to those already at the top of the food chain.
