To add another anecdote, I thought I was the only one who thought drivers have gotten worse in the Bay Area over the past few years. The frequency of some driver not paying attention or not following the rules of the road and blowing through stop signs and red lights or abruptly turning into my path without a signal has been increasing, as a driver, cyclist, and pedestrian. Stay safe out there, especially during the winter months.
I'm also hoping the A&B Acoustic II video is similar to the Acoustic I video; the first Acoustic concert video also drew me to go in person.
Side note, Lane 8 experimented with phone-less concerts that went well enough that he does that for his tours now, even naming his new record label "This Never Happened". My friends and I joke that it started with a Mixmag set where a crowd member in the front kept recording video and flash photos, whereas Lane 8 is usually very much enveloped in the music he's playing (https://youtu.be/sWa7GdYiYUQ?t=15m2s).
I've enjoyed his phone-less concerts a lot - it's just tape over the camera, so you can send/receive a quick message if needed, and step off to the back or side if you need to use it longer.
Yes, they sent hoodies on premiere night to the first 509 people that reached the end sign-up page. Very cool of the marketing team and everyone involved.
I'm enjoying this a lot. The explanations are straightforward and the writing and animation style is entertaining. I'm liking the website parodies and the puns in the alt texts. I'm learning new things and the linked resources are good for going in-depth. I'd probably pay for advanced lessons in this style. I'll be recommending to friends!
My go-to resource for practicing is http://leetcode.com. There are a lot of questions ranging from easy to hard and an online judge to check your solution by running test cases. If I remember right, there's also a discussions section. They hit a lot of classic interview questions that help you prepare for those questions that wrap those classic problems in obscurity.
For a refresher on algorithms and data structures, I also like the Harvard CS50 videos up on YouTube. They walk through sorting algorithms and cover the bases of various data structures.
The Nature article that PopSci links to goes way more in depth and is a great read: http://www.nature.com/news/nuclear-power-desperately-seeking.... Also brings up discussion of the need of much more powerful energy sources (potentially nuclear) for proposed human space exploration missions.
This is great! I like being able to see so many different Utilities and DevOps tools being used. But it seems like many of the top stacks don't mention the application frameworks or languages that they're using. Why might that be the case?
LeetCode has a great collection of problems that you can practice with and test your solution in the browser (https://oj.leetcode.com/). The discussion sections were helpful as well.
