Leetcode interview questions will adapt to ask for the wrong answer. You'll have to write broken code to prove you can code better than the correct code AI can spit out.
Lanes in heavy snow covered roads are more of a suggestion. You can either drive on the bare 'wagon tracks' of road, or on the proper lane (that you can't even see) with 6-12 inches of snow on them. Often when driving…
Trees follow a slow-fast-slow pattern for capturing carbon. Small new trees don't capture much. Middle-aged trees capture a lot as they grow. Old-growth trees don't capture as much as they reach the end of their…

Whenever I come across a picture of a location that looks cool, whether it be a castle/ruin/beach/city. I search Youtube for 'place name walking tour' and then filter by Long videos. Usually gets some good results.…
Amazon is brutal, 1% defect rate. 1.75% gets you a 72 response window before they shut your account. So, 2 bad orders per 100 and your out of business. You basically live in fear of bad reviews and cases being opened…

Smells like garlic, at 20 parts per billion, in 80-90% sulfuric acid... Probably not much smelling going in.
