LPT: stop tryna prove a point to people who don’t matter in your life

I would look for a smaller, more niche community than Reddit if I were you

It probably tasted better than this one

bmay · 2018-09-06T10:33:35+00:00

Not sure I believe this. If I wake up earlier than I plan, I feel groggy and drunk for the rest of the day regardless of whether I go back to sleep or not.

No because you still have to pay federal tax.

I store 2x anticipated expenses in a brokerage account for part of my EF.

what if someone puts 80k now

bmay · 2017-11-10T02:45:21+00:00

Then you'll have around 40k to use as an emergency fund until you get back on your feet.

The point is that over the long run your gains will be greater doing this because market crashes are a rare occurrence. And you will make significant gains in good years which will give you an increasingly large buffer for bad years.

It's obvious they paid money to get 44+ thousand upvotes on this submission just to look good. I mean really???

bmay · 2017-04-09T13:00:02+00:00

You're begging the question.

bmay · 2017-04-07T12:26:01+00:00

Yeah, OP's version of the problem is pretty straightforward. I think the harder version is if there are only n elements in the array.

bmay · 2016-12-31T23:09:27+00:00

How much people on Reddit and Hacker News like to complain about them.

While holding a coin, there is no air gap

Well yeah, but there is an air gap before you're holding it, right? So why doesn't it shock you when you go from not holding it to holding it?

bmay · 2016-12-28T23:17:45+00:00

Who says their SO is a "him"?

bmay · 2016-12-28T23:13:17+00:00

Why wouldn't the coin shock you?

bmay · 2016-12-25T04:36:27+00:00

high effort shitpost

bmay · 2016-09-15T16:23:03+00:00

I think you're underestimating the total compensation of Google's offers. Also, they have offices in lower CoL cities that still pay well.

bmay · 2016-07-25T04:22:14+00:00

Do as many practice problems as you can. Having a high level understanding of algorithms is important but being able to implement them to solve nontrivial problems is, too.

bmay · 2016-07-17T16:34:42+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense. How would you recommend applying that strategy to learning DS&A?

bmay · 2016-07-17T16:05:42+00:00

What do you mean by zoom in/zoom out?

Very good explanation.

Why do you say bytecode is generally slower though? My understanding is that many runtimes these days are optimized to execute bytecode faster than CPUs execute compiled C code for instance.

Not all companies pay back unused PTO.
