When a friend gives you critical feedback, it’s easy to feel hurt or betrayed. As those feelings rise up, think about how much that person must care for you if they would risk your friendship and have an uncomfortable conversation all to help you grow and be more successful.

Student: why monkeys are menace even though we feed them?
Prof Mewa Singh: "because in animals only subordinate individuals offer food to others. So when we give them food, they treat us like subordinates."

Flipping a coin is not actually a 50/50 proposition (https://t.co/6bgXuvvLLL).
Let's measure its statistical bias.

Take a coin and flip it, starting from the heads-up position. What did you get?

These robots were built to organize parts on a conveyor belt at high speed. Watch as the spindle-armed Delta Robot (right) and compact LR Mate 200iD robot (left) sort and move sets of four batteries with mesmerizing, seemingly-endless rhythm https://t.co/lUQbtW0mzL

Here's why the circle has 360 degrees: around 2400 B.C., the ancient Sumerians noticed the Sun's annual path across the sky was ~ 360 days. In order to track the Sun's motion, they decided to divide the circle in 360 degrees.

Alternative Big O notations:

O(1) = O(yeah)

O(log n) = O(nice)

O(nlogn) = O(k-ish)

O(n) = O(ok)

O(n²) = O(my)

O(2ⁿ) = O(no)

O(n^n) = O(fuck)

O(n!) = O(mg!)
