Check out "As We May Think", a legendary essay by Dr. Vannevar Bush in 1945. Bush was the Director of the Office of Scientific Research and Development and "coordinated the activities of some six thousand leading American scientists in the application of science to warfare".
The topic of his essay was: what should scientists do for the benefit of society now that the war is over?
That last paragraph is a downer... Unlike film cameras, DSLR cameras you already own are going to be harder to maintain, if at all, and then what happens to all the thousands we spent on dslr glass...
So many countries have "Detain first, something-something later" policies that it's easier to make a list of the ones who don't. Like Japan, for example, allows suspects to be arrested and detained for 20+ days without being charge
FYI, the call to action is obscured (actually it's more accurate to say there is no call to action, i.e. a button to download the app) in iPad portrait mode. You can see this when you resize the desktop browser to that width.
Why do you have to ask "why"? You can just sign up for yourself and see how the writing experience differs. Every popular service has benefits that are better understood through trying
IIRC, that submitter ridiculed stock photos harshly in the original title and so that's why people reacted with negativeness and also, the points about Apples logo not being eligible for unapproved advertising is actuallynNi e to know
Plagiarism is sometimes punished with the academic death penalty. If you were a journalist who plagiarized in the last 10 years then your career is over.
I guess you aren't looking for app critique but my thought is that most web users see "Facebook" and "compromising photo" as part of the app requirements and no matter what your privacy policy or mechanisms you have, most average users will not go for this
What's the motive to make this process painful? Would people really say Oh screw it, I'll just stay with GoDAddy? Ive never transferred a domain before so I don't know what the process or delay is normally like
I see 2 problems with this. One: for many people, books will not be the best (or cheapest) resource. How will your metric rank items like websites, college lectures series, things like Khan, and other non-linear content?
Two: How specific will you make the "goals"? If an example goal is "To be a doctor"...the route there is immense and incalculable. If you do something like "brain surgeon"...there are many subgoals even to that specific profession.
OK, three: i don't think you have the expertise to say that there's one best set of books or learning material. everyone learns differently. That's part of the reason why you found so many books in the first place
I remember having an excel class in high school as a required elective. Spreadsheets are important of course. It's amazing how many white collar office people still don't know the basics of it -- but how hard is it to fit in two weeks of simple scripting? I think kids learning even just the bare mechanics of programming could be better off
