I was diagnosed at university. Around my freshman year, which is over 10 years ago. In my country there were not many ADHD specialists and medications in circulation at first, mostly atomoxetine was used, but it made me sick (nausea, stomac

>weaker university rankings Really? As far as I know, the most authoritative ranking in academia is the Shanghai ranking[0], where, apart from outliners in the US with gigabudgets, most of the top are made up of European universities. T

There is an insightful summary of all the issues from HashiCorp founder when trying to establish an international remote-first company. I can agree on almost everything from his post because my employer (startup) is trying to do the same, w

I like to think about NFT as an easy method of buying art from artists. There are many platforms for this with classical purchase mechanics, but as an artist myself, I love the idea of an auction-based platform for this era of digital art.

This year I started my leetcode grinding for interview purposes. But when I look back, I can tell that's all this practice and analysis of solutions made me a much better engineer than before. The most impactful thing in my 6+ year car

I used Atom before VSCode. I'm still in love with its minimalistic design and somehow font rendering in Atom better than in VSCode (still not sure why, I tried to play with settings and stuff, but nothing changed). It was the first pro

Try the "E Ink Mobius Carta", I think it's the best now. You can find e-readers with 10.3" displays, 227 PPI, double front-lit (warm and cold, you can mix them for the best experience, work independently), full android o

The last time I checked, there was only one manufacturer with patents on e-ink tech, all the models on the market use the same screens. Even e-ink is more like a brand, not a technology name Remind me how "you need to google something

I understand what you are talking about, but this is not how rules apply to stores' apps. (not sure about App Store, I'm mainly working with Google Play). You can read the legal part of Google Play, starting from section 8 and to

There was a request from opposition to Apple about that, and they got an official answer. You can read it on Twitter https://twitter.com/ioannZH/status/1438750081402953728

Yeah, that's an old story, but there were engineering offices of a few big US companies in Russian before. Almost all of them left in 2010x when they understood what was going on there. Same for Belarus, companies moved their offices

They asked, but before this situation, there were no serious reasons for that. But a few days ago, the Navalny organization (FBK) was declared by the court to the status of an extremist organization. They just put the opposition on one list

This is shadier than it seems. The opposition organization FBK (ФБК) was just called out as "extremists," and with this government decision, they wrote mails to Google and Apple to block "extremists." There are published
