It also allows you to promote your audience to speakers so it’s more of an interactive podcasts, so you can actually ask questions to a panel or the speaker.
Again, haven’t used it much but this is what I understand Clubhouse brings to the table.
I mean, in most cases it doesn't really matter what tech you choose as 1. Most products don't really need "massive scale" 2. It's more important to be proficient in the tech you pick rather than it being the "best tech ever". I mean Facebook still uses PHP no?
I don't know what is more funny ("haha") - people not being able to pronounce it or how stupid hard Danish is to speak.
Not that is of any help but the government in Denmark has done sort of the same. If you question their policies and responses to COVID they say “It’s based on advice on scientists and professionals”. You ask what professionals and science for long enough they say well it was a political decision. And this circle go around in till someone gets tired
I mean I don't agree or disagree with wearing face masks, but it's very clear the consensus among "experts" is that wearing masks is a good thing to prevent spreading a virus such as covid-19.
My point is more, to me wearing a mask is the "way it is" because the scientific community thinks it is through peer review etc. In my kind disagreement / agreement does not come into the question? I'm more questioning if the consensus is based on proper peer reviewed articles. And if was really concerned about the question I might research these, hopefully, publicly available papers.
In the case of vaccine / anti - vaccine my opinion is not really relevant (whether I agree or disagree), but the consensus is that vaccines helps us. If you think this consensus is wrong it's on you to prove otherwise instead of simply saying "it's my opinion". And the way you do this is to pursue research that can disprove vaccines are good?
The point of science is opinions don't matter, results do?
Maybe I'm being too academic about everything.
Maybe it gets easier to explain when they have a better understanding of time? Understanding time has past and how much of it seems to be difficult for kids to grasp / understand ? (I have no clue, just observing my own small world).
I guess the same could be said for adults though, our concept of time often depends on whether or not we want to do what we are doing - time flies and so on. Sorry for the tangent!
I also use nestjs and there it seems updates to how to resolve a field has made it tons faster l, purely looking at the trace.
And I know that it won't be as fast as regular old json due to the checking but that slow? Must be something someone can do :)
However, my first thoughts it does seem (from its concept) not so easy to implement(?). Additionally I would have concerns with regards to how much an overhead this calculation adds compared to just a “simple” comparison.
Maybe the calculation is worth it if the comparison is costly enough? My guess would at least be that we would need fewer comparisons in Flashsort as we should have a higher chance of “knowing” where things should go.
The Wikipedia article shares no plots/data (guess I should dig deeper for that), but would be interesting to see how well it fares against more modern and/or optimized versions or Quicksort as it is unclear if the claim that it becomes faster than Quicksort is correct :)
I find it to be a very difficult topic, as everything has to coexist: no sales, no company but no developers no product to sell which is then no company.
I find that the deadline setting sometimes gets out of hand because it's not the setter who has to meet the deadline. For example if I set a deadline you have to meet and I can not influence the work being done (help or somehow make it easier to hit the deadline) how could I ever understand the "true" consequence of setting the deadline? In other words, not my weekend so I probably won't care as much as you.
What has worked for me (sometimes) is setting up the consequence; if we have to make x for deadline y, we won't be able to make a for deadline b. And then try and involve "sales" or the deadline setters in how we cut down whatever has to be made so we do make the deadline.
But that completely aligns with the post as that rarely is user centric or building the best solution for users. This simply gets stuff done within an arbitrary deadline set by someone, to meet a contract etc.
Bear in mind these experiences are from startups and not corporates.
Sure, not everything is applicable but the solid foundation goes a very long way.
I also see others fail at some tasks because they are not able to understand the foundations. Not saying it would be solved by going to university, but it might have helped to study it without tight deadlines and in a world where nobody has time to wait
Sorry in advance of this a tangent and maybe I'm just lucky that I'm the product of a good education or perhaps I have always had the wrong jobs, but while I of course learned tons by working I have never been able to compare what I learned at university and on the job, not because they are fundamentally different, just different.
I never learned or more importantly had time to deep dive into an issue for months of time on the job compared to university. Things have to be solved fast, go go style a client is waiting. Perhaps this is a product of the jobs I have had, don’t have enough data to say otherwise.
But I have never at university learned how to for instance lead a team or communicate effectively to non-academics. This is not something I expected of my university of course as these are very different skills.
But what I did learn was to understand the computer at a deeper level, which helps me every day and I find to be crucial to my day job.
I value my university degree/time dearly, but it is of course not the real world and of course not everything is applicable, but you never really know what is before you need it I guess.
By this not saying that teaching shouldn’t evolve, innovate and/or change for the better, I think I’m just saying it is doing some stuff right, and I believe (no data backing here) that our industry wouldn’t get or continue to get the innovations we have achieved without at least some university foundations sprinkled in there :)
What would you change? :)
I use DDG and "bang" myself to better results if DDG fails me. Love the amount of features.
My only complaint is it sucks at helping me spell words, especially in other languages than English.
Sadly we use Google mail at my work so probably can't avoid it completely.
Being a Dane it mostly seems to me that people defend their university a lot and it often correlates with where you grew up/went. So people saying Aalborg is the best probably grew up near Aalborg or went to study there. This is of course very anecdotal but when I studied CS in a CPH university nobody ever spoke of Aalborg. People spoke about KU, ITU and DTU. Sometimes Aarhus was mentioned.
Not saying Aalborg isn't great, but my general observation is people defend their university choice like it's holy. Probably the same in other countries :) so my suggestion would always be go where things are "closest to home". If you're a foreigner, pick the one closest to the airport for convience.
One example is from outside Denmark is another commenter in this thread mentioned the royal Stockholm uni, but forgot to mention Lund University (LTH) which is just as prestigious.
In the end I never noticed anyone caring except in jest. Never met anyone who cared professionally.
Do you really want your business critical sorting rely on something that only might work?
Sorting algorithms are like crypto, don't roll your own if you can avoid it.
In my experience this exploring thing kinda only makes sense when you want to document doing/trying the same thing again ( which NASA probably is). If you are just documenting how to connect to a database, set something up or similar it, to me, falls pretty glat. Maybe I'm using it wrong...
No idea what they use under the hood.

It reminds me of the visualisation of different sorting algorithm (with sound): https://youtu.be/kPRA0W1kECg
That is quite scary to be honest and do you know the reason as to why they do this?
I simply set it up to archive when swiping (which is what Inbox seems to be doing). However, it's notifications are far from as good and you can't archive straight from the notification, which, to me, is a let down.
Furthermore, on iPhone 8 there is an actual loading screen when opening the app. Like, why? Everything is already stored in the phone and it should just look for new mail in the background?
So far from perfect, but what can one do when Google is killing stuff off.
One issue though: you have to be in the apple ecosystem as they do not support, anything but iOS/Mac OS.
Note: I'm not associated with spark in any way.
In general I would classify it "just for fun" and the OP did state it was optional. Perhaps edited after your comment?
Do you have a direct link?
However, I wonder, while I am not from the music industry or anywhere near close, why Apple/Google/Other music app, does not have a similar issue?
Do we simply not just hear about it? My Google skills could not give tell me anything - does anyone else have a articles about other music apps having similar issues?
I am just thinking, that if Spotify has this issue surely someone else must have too.
