There is so much variation from company to company within each of those titles that the distinction between them basically doesn't exist. So if you particularly care about the title - apply for jobs with that title.
It's unlikely they will move out of the market which gives them the most recognition as a brand and accounts for a disproportionately high % of their revenue.

Is there any conclusive evidence for this?
Over the last day since you wrote this I opened an account with Tandem, had to start a savings account with them even though I wasn't interested in it, applied for the cashback card, got declined despite of a good…
Revolut isn't just a prepaid card. What they offer is very similar to Monzo, even if they started out differently. That's why they're competing with each other and it's fair to compare them.
Yep, that's a massive positive that I forgot to mention. In that space they're competing with Revolut rather than the traditional banks. Many people's setup will be traditional bank for everyday banking + Revolut for…
> Can you top up your HSBC account with a credit card from another bank? A Monzo account is just another bank account. That's a good point. But with the low exchange rate and a modern app, they're also (willingly or…
This is where they actually bring value right? - Delivering a good banking product outside of the UK. Because as a UK customer I see no reason to switch after trying Monzo for a couple of months. Positives: - a nicer…
> Programmers who write code like this should not be allowed to practice. This is really misplacing the responsibility and shows a lack of understanding about what is actually happening in the industry.
Yep, you're right, I misunderstood.

Any reasons for this? Not knowing too much about the space, I would say the exact opposite - consumer desktop apps are less and less likely to succeed while enterprise and industry-specific ones still have a place.
What would you like to see in the better version of Python?
I don't think that OP is comparing Rust and Go. Just pointing out how with Go there is a list of points of criticism that are frequently brought up, and he's asking if there are pain points that can be raised up in a…
Khan Academy has content all the way up to multivariable calculus and differential equations. And for more advanced material than that you'll need textbooks anyway.
Kudos to you. Speaking as someone who has taken their eyesight for granted, it's absolutely incredible that anyone can do this at all.

Not sure how that's relevant. Everything is written in something else. Python itself is written in C. The Julia github repo shows Julia 68.2%, C 16.3%, C++ 10.4%, Scheme 3.2%. R is a mix of C, C++, R and some Fortran I…

Depends on what you're interested in, your goals and your starting point. You have two main learning lanes: 1. Theory. Math, calculus, linear algebra, probability, statistics, ML algorithms. ISLR is a very good…
Yeaah, to your last thought - without being too cynical, looks like the author wanted to write a beginner data science book but realised that the good beginner data science books are already written (as well as many bad…
