Genuinely surprised of the breath and level of interaction with this post. It would appear - perhaps we have data to back up? - a distinct _'flavour'_ of post are becomming dominan…

Very well articulated for sure. But, I do think the word _'expert'_ always tends to do a lot of heavy lifting. What looks like _'expertise'_ may actually be pattern recognition bui…

If the systems invariants are well defined, and a suite of conformance + requirements tests (ensuring invariance is respected) are defined, wouldn't this be a broad - _'base case'_…

This is a lovely toy project. But please do not do this for real; imperfections - even minute imperfections - in data visualisations have consequences. 'Non-techy' people take for …

That tutorial guy on YouTube, Derek Banas, swears by Anki. He's quite the voracious learner as well as being a pretty good contractor. I've used it myself (sparingly, when taking o…
