I'm in an awkward situation because I'm in R&D, so every job I've had uses DS/A style stuff intensely every day. The engineers I hire are mostly there to help me with my work, so they need the DS/A style stuff. I don't…
Thanks for your research. That makes a lot more sense.
So don't merge their forks?
-1M for a religion degree from Talmudical Seminary of Bobov... where tuition after aid is $7,549. ...how do you even spend $1M on a religion degree that costs less than $10k/yr?! Surely this is just actual straight-up…
Honestly, sounds amazing. If I have code where that isn't literally free labor for my business/project, I'll keep it closed source. If I have code where that's free labor but also competes with or commodifies my…

Texas Tech is a fantastic school. If he chooses to go there and majors in a STEM field, he'll have a bright future.
they're asking why academic courses and more hands-on practical/technical courses can't be mixed? I think they did answer this: it's because hands-on practical/technical skills are hard to learn and people who can teach…
