That's a great point, and yes, probably. Perhaps society is pushing in two opposing directions, the tech-enhanced and the purist / artisan. Whether one will win or they will be able to live peacefully side by side is hard to say

Here is another one I thought of the other day. Q: Given V (the number of vertices), E (the number of edges) and L (a list of the edges) for a connected undirected graph, determine whether the graph is a tree. ---- A: It can be done in O(1)

At least some of the books you mention arguably can be (and are by Google) classified as biography, so they would not be removed by the rule of thumb. But perhaps a better way of phrasing the rule would be "Don't read books by jou

A very interesting little experiment! Based off this, the author notes that the orange streets will provide a steady stream of income, and this is useful information. But the trick in Monopoly is to get hotels on your properties as quickly
