Indeed! I would buy it if it were smaller (e.g., 4.7')

I think the technical product manager role is the worst of both worlds: - not enough tech: so you don't get to work on the nice and interesting stuff - it has it's management part:…

I guess I wanted to say "because of the promise of money"

Do you know of good resources (besides official documentation) to improve my Spring Boot (Kotlin) skills? I know the basics but still feel like I'm missing something.

I'm not defending fraud: if fraud is made, then you pay for it (either economically or via prison). On the other hand, having thousands of people on the internet call you everythin…

This feels strange (maybe I got it wrong). It's probably because Amazon has all the money in the world they need to develop their products, but I would expect to launch a new produ…

So, I saw the other day the release of the ep-133, and it happens that I want to get started doing that kind of stuff (e.g., creating simple beats). I have zero knowledge about DAW…

What you say is true, but the amount of "grunt work" is not constant over the years. In fact, I think the amount of "grunt work" in teh tech industry is just growing and not shrink…

I'm a total newcomer about this, but I would like to learn and start making "music". They advertise: > MAKE USE OF THE CURATED SELECTION OF DRUMS, BASS AND KEYS THAT COME PRE-LOADE…

I'm not sure if reading the book would help. If the manager has a technical background (e.g., they have worked as developers before) then they already know the main point of the bo…

What? If anything a startup founder (in general) wants to become a gigantic corporation. The bigger the better.

I'm the only one NOT using autocorrect? I find useful the suggestions that popup above the keyboard but ultimately I decide whether or not to use them. I find autocorrection (on ph…

What always surprised me is not DNA, but how other non-living things can exist at all without DNA. It makes sense to me that I have green eyes since that's what my DNA says... but …

But how good is to say "Image generated by Bing AI" (or whatever)? Many of this generated images are a one-off (so, you don't get a URL you can copy). It's like saying "Image found…

I tend to sleep on weekdays around 8'5 hours (from 1am to 9:30). On weekends I sleep usually 9'5 hours. I'm not on my 20s anymore. I don't wake up in the nights (unless I drink a g…
