The "Final Verdict" is very plain and is hardly enhanced by reading the body of the article. It would make more sense if it was put in the opening of the article, creating a complete abstract.

It absolutely has. I don't think I can live without doing it anymore. I started in middle school and am currently in college. Being so close to me, it's not formal at all, being more like a stream of consciousness filled with anyt

This spring, I completed a data structures course at a large state school. We used Java at our university because Princeton did, and I imagine Princeton did because of the ease of segmenting concepts into classes because Java bytecode is th

What advantages does this offer over something like typing "$QUERY -site:*.com" into a mainstream search engine? I think webmasters in general do a pretty good job at self-segregating their sites into commercial and non-commercial

That doesn't actually sound very different from my experience with major search engines beyond the first page. I've taken it as a bit of an law that the Internet outside of large centralized and/or moderated sites gets very f

Good point. I was already concerned about people's reliance on Google's zero-click answers as the deepest level of inquiry before ChatGPT hit the scene. ChatGPT feels like a multiplier of this convenience factor, being also slight

It's a bit of legend in the YouTube community, but I've never looked into it myself. Thank you for motivating me to. The source in the article is from Steve Chen, co-founder of YouTube itself, at SXSW. [1] https://www.c
