Everything we do to secure ourselves, every decision we make out of fear of the future, ends up destroying us, ends up making our future a little more bleak --- the closer we are to the public ideal of "success", the farther we go from our own private, ideal, from our soul, if you want […]

"Language is primarily a tool for
communication rather than though."

An age-old philosophical hypothesis, disproved by building a mindless talking machine.

Today's #cs question:

Why are arrays more popular than linked lists?

I see that arrays let you access an element at a given position in O(1), but I doubt that this translates to more speedy iteration, which is what we do with lists 99.9999999% of the time....

The impostor syndrome occurs not when you feel unqualified for what you do, but when you don't *want* to do it, when you don't find it valuable/good/meaningful.

If you want to do something, then the question of whether you are the best person to do it becomes secondary.
