Having used the web version of Office at my job, I know I would not pay for it. It is compatible-ish, but severely lacking in features, enough so that I don’t trust it to render properly or maintain the formatting entered using the desktop app. If that is good enough then there are lots of alternatives.
I just skip Medium due to the walled garden. Even worse than Reddit. I have never come across a link to substack… are they an even higher wall that search engines are stymied by?
I fail to get why you think putting your stuff on Medium is a good idea.
Why downvote? This is an often overlooked trap for programmers… especially those of the “data science” variety, but certainly not restricted to that subset.
Yes, this was an appropriate response. I hate people who wave guns around like they are toys.
Way too late for that. Every language I know makes some kind of auto conversion for numeric comparisons… and sometimes for strings as well.
Bullshit. That is like saying adding more lanes to a freeway will reduce traffic congestion… it just encourages more deforestation.
If the fertility in a rainforest is in the biomass, learning to live with that biomass in place will be necessary if people are to live there. But there were very few people there before people started their land grab… it may not be possible even when the biomass is restored.
If the rainforest is valued for the ecological impact it has, then it is more likely that people will have to move out. Not attractive to the people who already moved in, but when they are starving then they will eventually migrate away anyway, and keeping them there with false promises to make cleared land usable will only make things worse.
Yup. Circle the wagons! If ya ain’t with us then you agin’ us! Don’t criticize me! And don’t tell me to think! If ya hit my knee, I gonna kick! Twitch
Jesus. The initial transient used to be about 3%, but now is under 1% for most product being sold. It was never near 20%.
But that doesn’t stop idiots from saying “we have optimizers” and installing them in the shade or facing north and acting surprised when they underperform.
nope. Inadvisable.
