I'm a coder (Java. booh ! :-D )

we have no clue what happens to our new car or whether we're going to get it or not, when, and in what shape.

@Tesla @elonmusk We bought a Model3 in cash last Thu. We've been scheduled for pick-up next day 10AM regardless of the fact we're living 500KM away. We've managed to send a friend and they almost missed the fact the car had a 20cm long scratch in the rear. We've been convinced

We're leaving for holidays and won't be available until after Easter. As there's no reply or way to contact a Tesla representative in our country we have no clue what happens to our new car of where we're going to get it. (We chose this one as it was available in stock)

[Dorel Vaida @adaptorel]

Can you please advise? To be honest, this all looks super fishy to us and we'd be most comfortable getting our money back. Thanks a lot for any help.

One of the most potent ways students can deepen learning is to explain concepts to themselves, either in writing or aloud.

Self-explanation turns out to be more effective than teacher explanation, taking notes, and several other learning techniques.

What Occasio is saying on lobby funding is right, healthy, & perfectly compatible with libertarianism/localism. These distortions/hijacking of representation are the product of a centralized system.
Let us make sure these ideas of sound governance are not marketed as "socialist".

Why studying a bit each day is so much more effective than cramming: New synapses form while we're sleeping, but only so many connections can form in a single night. Becoming an expert requires daily practice.

To Facebook, your 13ish yrs old kid spending thousands $ with their parents card is a "whale". Hmm. Casinos, at least, have the decency to at least "whale" only adults.

Facebook was tricking 5-year olds into spend hundreds or thousands on platform games, then refusing to refund the charges when shocked parents found out. Facebook employees referred to big-spender kids as “whales”, and kept denying refunds 😦 https://t.co/sxmwfw1DDK

Engineers, mapmakers, and mathematicians enjoy Nordic skating: to hit the ice just as it freezes over and is still thin enough to vibrate when skating, creating beautiful sounds the skaters soak in. Video with sound. https://t.co/U5WTOA1nT0

This is one of my favorite infographics. A lot of people underestimate just how much life has improved over the last two centuries: https://t.co/djavT7MaW9

@girlziplocked @anildash ego. in all its forms, deceiving.

@andreisavu They have different purposes. Shared libraries will tightly couple your services, so you end up with a distributed monolith. Choose what you give up. Ops or reuse? Then again, if you have more than a utils library that you reuse, are those services engineered right?

[Dorel Vaida @adaptorel]

@alexelcu You talk to them. You know, stuff people do. You'd be surprised.

[Dorel Vaida @adaptorel]

@TaelurAlexis Fast fwd 20 years, what would you like to see looking back? I know Java, I'm now learning Go or, I've helped build this?! Keep your eyes on 1.) why you're coding 2.) whom for and 3.) focus on *contributing* to something remarkable. CS is a tool/skill. What do you use it for?

"The immediate effect of intensifying computerization will be, of course, to change utterly our work habits. This has happened before". Slight (personal) alteration 35 yrs forward: "life* habits"
