News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

about halfway through it myself. I spend about 20-30 hours a week on it. It's definitely a challenging program but the value is ridiculously good.

I've learned an incredible amount of incredible things. While it's difficult to manage both the program and other life obligations, I'll be a bit sad once it's over.

What's false in that tree?

seems like an opportunity for some fun game mechanics!
that's an immense amount of hyperbole for a comment decrying juvenile arguments.
To be fair, the suspect was 21. His tenure at the victim's company cannot have been very long.

Despite the victim "knowing" the suspect as an employee, I find it easy to imagine him not recognizing his employee who had a fairly average build, in a fairly common outfit, in an elevator with people being conditioned to keep as much distance as possible. How often do you closely look at fellow elevator riders' faces? Especially these days?

That being said, with the brief tenure assumed, it's incredible that the CEO would be willing to work so flexibly with a relatively new employee who stole what amounted to up to 100K.

I find that the more specialist the guest, the more interesting the conversation, especially when Rogan just shuts his mouth and listens to someone passionate about their field.

Lex Fridman, Brian Cox, and Sean Carroll had--in my opinion--super interesting and engaging episodes.

That being said, there are currently over 1500 episodes, so there are definitely a good number of fluff episodes in the mix as well.

Edit: Just thought of a couple more who I found quite interesting. Paul Stamets and Michael Pollen both discussed in their respective episodes research they both participated in, which made them continuous episodes with a fascinating topic.

Jeff Atwood's has been a long time favorite of mine. https://codinghorror.com

It's a simple layout, easy to parse, with lots of interesting content.

His personal "About Me" follows the writing style found in the rest of his content, and he puts(presumably) a lot of time and energy into producing high quality and well-thought-out posts.

Are you using dot imports on those packages?
Quite a few assumptions going on there that seem to be coming from a bitter place...
