A closer analogy might be if none of the apartments had doors, would you be allowed to step inside.

I try to mention this every time I notice any major publications (WSJ, WaPo, NYT, Economist, Bloomberg, HBR) post basically trash under their main, but especially their "Opinion" c…

There's been no change, in fact the numbers have gone up because the program has become even more competitive. Some people in my year (2016) couldn't leave Canada due to visa issue…

Super glad to see this! Programming Paradigms for Dummies ( https://info.ucl.ac.be/~pvr/VanRoyChapter.pdf ) is something I try to get everyone I know who's interested to read and r…

As an Android developer on apparently one of the N biggest apps there are, lots of hard truths but also lots of 'I like things this way so I don't think things any other way is fin…

`git shortlog -sne --oneline --since='Jan 1 2010'` I like running the above command because it gives a good sense of coding productivity at the very least. And then you can dig int…

Given that Apple had been using Bing for search from 2014-2017, I'm not sure users actually care that much. https://techcrunch.com/2017/09/25/apple-switches-from-bing-t...

Why does (your) salary matter in this discussion?

There's no difference side-by-side between 1080p and 4K resolution if you're 5ft or further away from the TV[1], all else being equal. However, all else is rarely equal, and 4K TVs…

That definition makes a lot more sense, bar someone like Gates? Do you have any links going in-depth more?

No problem. I really enjoy MSDN documentation so I think imitating good guides or tutorials is a good starting point. As an aside I like the article How to Write Articles and Essay…

I think people are starting to get annoyed at how how these are all equivalent, and the switch in a lot of books seems to be towards the third version with braces. int x = 0; // ma…

If Microsoft or any similar company manages to master holoportation it will be an absolute game changer.

The end goal isn't whether state is ubiquitous or not. It is still that you don't need to buy a computer anymore, you can just buy a phone which does everything a computer does. Ev…
