Exactly. I worked in Business Intelligence and having both an accountant and a programmer background, whiteboard coding never comes up in interviews. Its more domain knowledge that's important, which is mostly about finance/accountancy.

Really grateful for the work you put into this. Thanks.

It's not mine. I just can readily find it because it's listed on one of my websites: pocketputer.com

I run several websites trying to support and promote the ability to earn money online. That's just one of them.

I like the images. What was used to create that?

>I should wish to die while still at work, knowing that others will carry on what I can no longer do and content in the thought that what was possible has been done.

I fear death because I fear no one will look after the things that I cared about in the same passion and in the same way that I do. I guess I am too sentimental for what I've done to the things I love.

What makes you think noone will choose a similar path to yours with the same passion?

I think you have a solvable problem. Just find people who do care about things as much as you do.

This is IMO the directly wrong approach.

Realise instead that no-one, not even your own offspring (see comments elsewhere on that one), will share your exact approach, your exact balance of desires, your exact passion. Give it up. Death will come and force the situation; don't be beholden to that which can never be achieved.

99% of the time? Where did you get that?

GPS is better than human only wherever it has better data. Bring it to a place where it has no data and its useless. Meanwhile, humans can easily adopt to find themselves in places they've never been before.

>That's the problem isn't it? A language is assumed to be a dialect of another language just because it uses the same script, regardless of its origins or how mutually intelligible it is.

Is that really the reason? Does it follow then that Vietnamese is a Chinese dialect before it adopted a modified Latin script?

I think origins does matter, apart from shared script.

I've tried this trick as well before, but it does not work all the time for me. Maybe I am just not disciplined enough in refocusing my attention to breathing. I discovered this trick when I was reading "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind" where parts of the book teaches about proper meditation.

I already have sleeping problems before, as I like to be occupied with something before going to bed at 11 or 12 pm. Normally, I would either program, write a blog or a chapter, or read an interesting book that I have been putting off for a while. My problem then was sleeping for only 6 hours, and I wanted to sleep 7.5 ~ 8 hours.

So I decided to switch it, by sleeping earlier (8 am) and doing these other things after I wake up at 4 am. This only worsened, as now I am having issues falling asleep. Tricks that I tried that worked only initially were counting, listening to music, having a hot shower, meditation, etc.

The first time I tried counting, I fell asleep before the count of 10, but on the second night, I was still awake past 30 and getting worried as it getting higher and higher and I am not asleep yet. So I changed it on the third night by repeating "one" until I fall asleep. That worked, but the following night, it was not as effective, as my thoughts just drifted on what happened during the day.

I've tried listening to music. Norah Jones' songs really worked for me for a few nights, but afterwards, the songs became a distraction, as I am now just listening to them and waiting for sleep to fall for hours.

I've tried to clear my head of racing thoughts, but after the thoughts are gone, I hear something like bubbles popping inside my head, which carry on endlessly and keeps me awake. Same with taking hot showers.

Later on I learned that my sleep problems is due to timing, since starting sleep at 8pm is within the "forbidden zone". It also does not help that my gym time is from 5 PM to 7 PM and have dinner afterwards.

I've move my bed time to 9 ~ 10 PM but my sleeping problems persisted. I think it has now become akin to performance anxiety.

I've tried 4-7-8 technique last night, but I find myself gasping for breath trying to hold it for 7 counts, plus the swooshing sound on 8 counts is too distracting when I exhale.

I am still looking for a technique that will work every time. I think I should have a log of my sleeping habits and what worked and what didn't and what things I did preceding the sleep. I'm considering purchasing a sleep tracker like Dreem just to automate sleep quality logging, and see if I could come up with something that works for me.

Turkey is an Asian country. Just because they own a slice of land in Southeastern Europe does not make them European. Otherwise, Spain would be African, France would be Latin American, and Egypt would be Asian.

Istanbul is (by far) the largest city of Turkey and is mostly on the European continent. If you include the coasts of the Aegean (that were historically Greek-speaking), then you get several more major population centers. And historically, the Ottoman Empire was very much a major European power, controlling as it did most of the Balkans.

If Cyprus can claim to be a European country, then so can Turkey.

What are the implications of this? Does it mean the speed of light is not constant after all? Does it mean relativity theory needs to be revised?

> The researchers also expect that this method can be used for other types of waves besides light, such as acoustic waves.

They should try it on gravitational waves next time.

In the Philippines, it's "cha-a" or "tsaa", which is a counter-example for "cha" being spread across land. The Philippines was consecutively under Spanish and American rule and 99% of Chinese there speak Hokkien/Min-nan yet do not use "te".

Seems the same applies to Guam as well.
