    At some point you have to wonder if there's some manipulation going on? Do 100s of bots buy and sell these stocks at specific times to keep the price up? Maybe there's an instituti…

    Maybe you are a games developer and are overlooking the fact that people have to first learn the basic apis/models/etc. of graphical systems, engines, etc. before using them. Not s…

    For a lot of these changes, you need a motivated and engaged enforcer/system-owner who will work through these challenges. It takes time and effort to change the culture of a group…

    Maybe you were technically right for some small scope of the problem, no proper industry definition of GC was supported by C++ by any of the major compiler. So, the HPC scientists …
