I appreciate you starting this thread, these are great resources people are posting. Common Crawl is the data set to master if someone wants to use the fruits of web scraping without actually doing the web scraping.
In a weird way, I think Nintendo's approach is basically "Zero to One" to differentiate from competitors, but doing it with cheaper hardware to reduce costs. I'm not a gamer, but from a business perspective I'm…
I'm still more of a Jitsi user (https://meet.jit.si), but this post is a great overview of how people have overreacted and not given Zoom credit for taking people's concerns seriously. The list of a dozen things related…
For the most part, this seems like a good primer on what the territory would be for people entering this space. I feel like the easiest "Hello World" for newbies would be taking a simple full stack app and interfacing…
I use an app that has that as a feature, but I personally never utilize it. The main reason is that each time I take a moment to "think" about how I feel, my mood changes accordingly. In a way it's like a self-inflicted…

Specifically, they take issue with the government creating demand for surveillance technology. Nothing unusual for a public policy organization that has Cato's perspective.
Amazing article, I had no idea there was such a huge scientific debate between (somewhat) competing organizations about the impact of various exercise methods, and how one side was caught bending data to the detriment…
Not only that, but using such a short time period would fail to distinguish Medicare expenditure trends and any other method of payment - which is why people look at the last few years of someone's life and whether that…
An interesting piece, this is an important discussion point when it comes to international healthcare policy comparisons. I like collecting things like these for a NLP project that outputs variables and methodologies…
