To be a kind, you only need one crown. That is in in real life the magic moments are created from routine days and they shine because they are the exception, never the rule. So don't coin many gems or you will end up seeing them as simple rocks.
Reality is not an acceptable reality. I have been waiting for four month and nobody complain about reality, is time to proclaim it and discuss why reality is not an acceptable reality, but before starting, let tell us about your desired heaven. Well, I'm glad Steve is posting again, more stuff for happily procrastinating. By the way, I'm reading a book about Joomla!, php people don't have macros but they have something that works perfectly to make a huge infrastructure for web programming, so being easy to program and deploy is the best macro for the humble web programmer.
I propose another reason aside of teachers for the results in The Tennessee experiment,Project Star.
My hypothesis is that children learn of their classmates, not so much of their teachers. A creative mind can give their classmates a lot of things to play with and can make them feel happy and motivated while playing or learning.
Perhaps some researcher would consider this a plausible hypothesis that worth to be tested. In Project Star you could compare the different groups with the same teacher, if there is not a global increase, it can indicate that the teacher is not the main factor, giving additional support to my (your, take it for free) hypothesis.
Searching with google "children learn from their classmates", I found Montessory philosophy and ideas. So I refine the hypothesis: a Montessory style of teaching empower the effect of children learning of each other. So to summarize my hypothesis or explanation of the Project Star experiment:
1. Children learn of each other, this is the main factor.
2. Teachers have a secondary effect on learning.
3. The combination of factor 1) and 2) is empowered with a style of teaching such as Montessory style, giving learning freedom to learn of each other, collaborate, explore, and obtain self respect. This combination is the greatest indicator of future achievement in life.
There is an active post about burn-out symptoms. People that think work harder and harder is the solution are best candidates for it. Perhaps those that pursue positive karma to the extend that they bend their comments for approval are the next class, so is a real pleasure not to be in that group.
I find that people with negative karma are a lot more interesting than those with positive karma, so this is no complaining at all, I would be very proud to be the person with the most negative karma in this group, it should be an honor, so don't complain if I don't appreciate your karma the way you want it.
I think there should be a curious group of people with negative karma, we could enjoy a lot with our comments and posts, I find positive karma and smiling faces a little boring. Cheers.
There are hundreds of recent failures in start-ups, I think there is no much to learn from the 10 recent failures in the post. I would be better to know examples of those that are going to succeed.
"A growth hacker is a person whose true north is growth", I find this the definitive guide for a growth hacker. I think a better definition is needed something more than a looking for scalable.
If the cheetah eats every deer they will get extinct and there is not deer to eat any more, so there must be an equilibria between predators and prays so is more than a zero-sum game.
Too much social life can ruin your business. Perhaps you must become a member of NYTC once you have built your product and are ready to launch it, otherwise you don't have time for being alert to your social environment.
If company X is a big company, they know better than you the price there can pay for your product. So you need someone than can estimate that number, that is not what is the value of your product but what is the highest price they would pay for your product.
If you can't contact anybody to make this estimate, you should do it yourself but that requires to know a lot about the company that is going to buy your product.
I am expecting F# people in the next year to say that Go is a very complex language and that it doesn't address the problems we are facing in enterprises.
That is every big house has a horse in the language race.
Zero-sum is only a simplification, the world can get richer or poorer and I don't think is a zero-sum game. Evolution is not related to zero-sum games. Perhaps the post is about
learning to cooperate is better that thinking life is a zero-sum game.
The useful information is not only that you like an object, but if you want to receive ads for objects "similar" to that one, so they need a way to know how specific are you about your object. If you want a generic object give 0 as specificity level, if you are very selective put 90. If you are only interested in this particular object and not in any other put 100. Just an idea.
Sound as if your mind is in another place. Your mind is on vacation and you want to get it to work again. Unfortunately it refuses to do so and you are in this situation.
Speak with your mind as with a friend and try to convince it that today is not a holiday. You need to order your life, to have a plan for the future, that will give you the strength for today.
To summarize: There are many new and interesting problems for a enterprise to solve and there are not related to marketing. Since the problems are well defined and there is a lot of money involved, good software is appreciated and paid according. This is a new landscape. The article include many examples.
Counting the number of lines must be done after the algorithm is described. There are two roles: those finding the correct algorithm for a problem and those writing the code for implementing the algorithm.
You say: "The voters, alarmed at at surge in violent crime ...", this can be the reason that explain more people in jail, and I think is a sound one. But this implies that more laws are not the cause but the consequence of a raise in violent crime so the title is misleading. You should say in the title: There are more people in jail because there is a rise in violent crimes and I would be happy with this.
