Embrace the healing power of AND. (OR is for losers)

I taught myself to code, and sold my first commercial project at the age of 14. And learned a lot.

I then went on to get a CS degree (in addition to physics, math and EE degrees - all undergrad). And learned a lot. (The structured program of learning about Databases, Compilers (and more about compilers!) and Operating Systems was far above what I would have (could have?) learned on my own. Data Structures and Algorithms - that is straight forward enough if you already know how to code)

And then went on to sling a LOT of lines of code. And learned a lot.

Now - I don't think ANY of those (except maybe the last one) teaches one to be a systems engineer, which one needs to be for large systems, but they are all excellent building blocks for when you get there!

That think really works, I encountered the idea first time when I read about Montessory system. I dont know effects in long term, but in short term. If you make it strategy to not break kids attention, kids attention span goes up.

If you think about it, the same thing actually works with adults. When you are interrupted every few moments (for example by management, colleges or kid) you have harder time to focus for long spans. Once the interruptions stop, your attention span goes up.

This is the only correct answer. So many times these questions are posed as a false dichotomy. The simple answer is: why not both?

That being said, personally I thought for a long time that I didn't need to study CS and could teach myself to code (which is true), however I do notice that sometimes I lack a deep fundamental understanding of CS, which I regret.

Oligarchs don't go around cutting forests for fun, they profit from "environmental destruction" because other people need it to live and are ready to give their money in exchange for its results and receive money for performing it.

Communist countries do as much damage as capitalist ones, and even hunter-gatherers did a huge amount of damage, so you are looking for solution at a wrong place.

Which of current trends do you think justify your pessimistic outlook? We are not in a particularly bad state compared to hundred years ago, and recently we didn't cause more extinctions than we caused as hunter-gatherers. With genetic editing we are working to create much more efficient crops, in some places we learned how to use technology to drastically reduce use of pesticides, area, and water in agriculture (see Netherlands and Israel), gene drives that would eliminate main pest species are going to allow us to further reduce usage of pesticides, and we are learning to grow fish and algae in the ocean instead of simply exploiting wild populations. We are even working on restoring long dead species like mammoths, so i'd say there is every reason to be optimistic about the future.

Currently he is doing quite popular series called Best (and Worst) Reviewed in Eastern Europe, where he goes to various restaurants, hotels, bars and try to be as annoying customer as possible, which often results in hilarious situations (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFkF99oaioI)
Given that the current solutions (just vibrate the sensor) work pretty well in most cases and that the proposed solution adds quite a layer of complexity I doubt that this will find widespread adoption.

I still love that this would actually remove the dust from the body though. I never had a problem with the vibrating-sensor-solution, but it always bothers me that all the dust just gets moved around in the body without really being gone.

It didn't looked that way to me. I think his advice is right on the dot if you were doing startup and finding co-founder. The best co-founder you might find is the one who multiplies your capabilities as opposed to merely adds to yours (or in worst case subtracts from yours). For example, Wozniak alone couldn't have taken Apple to where it is and same goes for Jobs. Without each other, they would be at best some "10x engineer/salesman" in some company and forgotten. It is important to find partner who fills in the gaps (and vice versa) such that entire puzzle unlocks.

> This is a very strange article and premise to me. A university education is not vocational training.

I know right? Stupid plebeians expecting to get something that will help them earn a living out of spending three or four years learning something and foregoing the earnings they could have made in that time. If you don’t know that university is for signaling your social class rather than learning skills that will be useful in earning a living why are you even there?

At least the nerds who think university is about learning don’t have the stink of trade about them.
Hmm, never tried that with melodyne myself and the video you posted isn't a great example of an accurate vocal extraction - those are more like vocal chops and are already pretty dirty to begin with. Based on my experience with Melodyne, I'd be surprised if you could cleanly extract a plain singing vocal without tons and tons of work.

One thing that really demoralized me for reading news is I read some political books from the early 70s and realized that the themes, politics and controversies haven't changed since then. It's all the same stuff over and over again. Nothing ever get's resolved.

This is the opposite of my own experience. Not only am I not as likely to get lost, but having directions read to me means I can pay more attention to the surrounding landscape instead of things like road names. I can also explore without having to worry about not being home for dinner simply because I can always find my way back home.

Comparing my current location to maps in real time (or even alter on when I look at where I've been that day) helps me expand as well.

And to be fair, interpreting an on-screen map takes up slightly less brainpower than a paper map. This is really important since I'm the type that can get my bearings messed up by going in and out of a gas station. I have no real sense of direction and have to work really hard to have what I have - and always have.

The Money Farmers: How Oligarchs and Populists Milk the E.U.
A very good read in the Journal Genome Biology explaining in simple words how Ponzi and Madoff made millions, and then, describing his idea:

Now, the reason you're reading about this here, is that I just realized that life itself is basically a gigantic Ponzi scheme, and the pyramid is dangerously close to collapsing. In the developed world, we have evolved a society in which a relatively small number of old people have many of their needs cared for through the financial contributions of a larger number of much younger people. And that made sense, because for over 12,000 years the age distribution of the human population was, in fact, in the shape of a pyramid, with a huge base of young children rising to a smaller number of teenagers and a still smaller number of young adults, and so on up to a tiny tip of the elderly. But sometime in the 1950s, as the birthrate declined and life expectancy continued to increase, the pyramid started to be shaped more like a column. Within the next 40 years it will become one, and then it will slowly invert.

I can recommend a full read, it’s worth the time.

Unfortunately, walking doesn't give me enough sense of the city here to drive it. I take walking paths, which cut through neighborhoods or are separated by barriers. I do not take the vehicle-only tunnel under the city and do not know the exits there. I walk down roads that are dead ends to cars.

Not that I would aimlessly drive here if I had the chance, but that is more because of the price of gas and the fact that it is way more interesting to drive in the countryside. For clarification, I'm in Norway - Trondheim - and am American.

IMO if need just get a job then having degree should help. If you enjoy building stuff and have curiosity then it will be more fun to learn it by yourself. Learning a language and basic concepts can take just few months, but that is just a beginning of an endless journey. The skill of learning by yourself is probably most important for engineers because there are always new things to learn, and every job will require you to learn something new.
Keep in mind there are many other things that we can learn

When you have an instrumental version of a song (from the same stems as the vocal version) this is already one way to get the vocals out without any fancy machine learning. The main tricks besides what you can do in Audacity like that are properly time-aligning the tracks (even if they drift a bit) and compensating for phase issues and compression. I wrote a dirty tool that does that and I've been meaning to turn it into some kind of nicer GUI version.
