Is their a study that answers these questions?
>but I have to ship this thing by May 2023 come hell or high water.
Do you feel that you have to start working today in order to meet the deadline, or you can put a couple of weeks aside to develop your skill in whichever other language you'd like would be more adequate.
I know there are cheaper alternatives, but gaming branded hardware is far from being cheap. Specially middle-high GPUs.
And for most people that want to upgrade their computers or a specific item, they prefer to buy something that will last at between 3 to 5 years.
One thing I appreciate in portuguese books is the font size. All the books I order from the UK have a smaller font than what I'd want to read after work.
I don't think the rest changes.
La leyenda negra, is a concept that doesn't reach many people in the anglo-saxon world
It's a lost cause.
Not all doctors and nurses are that technically good to justify that we don't keep a sensible amount of suspicion, or when receiving a diagnosis shouldn't look for a second, or even third opinion.
Given that it's not that old, and it's still actively used I wonder why people never include it in the list of recent Common Lisp code bases, for new users to take a look.
It's always the same recommendations.
It's not a question of who decided that, but because it's a complex book. And that is also true to pretty much every other religious book in the world, where believers reach to their respective holy texts on a regular basis to study them and have a deeper understanding of their faith.
Is something you're meant to read through out your life, not in one sitting.
>then what what what?
Republic - Plato
Laws - Cicero
National System of Political Economy - Friedrich List
Man and Technics - Oswald Spengler
The Bible
I can not do this either in Cisco Webex.
And given that the purpose of HB is to get money donated to charity, it's not an efficient way of achieving that because they get a very small fraction of what we pay.
Hence why I said you'd better off pirating, evaluate the book value, and if needed buy the book to support the authors.
And if charity is also important because they earn more money.
Oh you subscribed to have access to this particular set of books? Oops we removed them, tough luck. I am sure your thousands of dollars were worth it.
And who even owns Wiley?
If you really enjoy them, buy them or find a way to donate to the author(s).
If you want to support the charities, donate directly.
Humble Bundle doesn't make sense to books. It only makes sense for a few games where you can really get a good offer, for lets say, a game and the main DLCs, but such promotional campaigns rarely happen.
That is the only advantage of secondary sources. Telling you that guy X and Y wrote about Z. But if you want to learn about Z, go read what those guys actually wrote.
If you don't understand a particular concept, word, or whatever, then do a research in secondary material available.
>literature could leave you confused and without some kind of historical context.
Specially in recent (basically anything written in the last 50 years) secondary sources I heavily dispense with comments on "historical context" as they are full of bs, and are heavily politically biased, one way or another, not necessarily in fields like Mathematics, but in History or Philosophy, etc.
That is basically what you should never do, in any topic, unless it's some esoteric topic and a prior top-level explanation would help.
It's not like Plato is Quantum Physics.
They just to lower the wages. Hence why they are so in favor of opening the borders and human traffic situations like we had in Odemira with people from Nepal and neighboring countries living like literal slaves.
Even with visa deals for Portuguese speaking countries like Brasil, Angola and Mozambique just have that goal in mind, because it's not like we are getting scientists, doctors and engineers from those places...
>even here in Cascais you see lots of unbuilt land
We have no intention of becoming a concrete jungle.
>Their job protection mentality needs to change towards a more dynamic job creation mentality
No thank you, please just keep your opinions to yourself, and honestly find somewhere else to go.
>low crime
Wrong, there's more and more crime, specially in Lisbon, Cascais, Sintra, and it's increasing in Porto and Braga too.
Specially on neighboorhoods with lots of "youngsters".
All the infrastructure we left you weren't able to maintain, as it happened with 99% of the African countries.
Total mystery why.
It's a total mistery to me that people even care about being called any *ist label.
>to be against fast fashion?
This is normal. Talking about overconsumption ofc, not affordable clothing.
Just buy things produced in your country, specially when you know there is decent quality control and work laws that protect workers.
