I was thinking about caches and evaluating what calculations I want to do.

I fixed a project for someone simulating a machine. That took them almost 9 minutes. Simply replacing the part where they initialised a solver and used it to find a zeropoint of a quadratic function with a call to that initialiser got it down to a minute.

You should have seen their faces when we put the quadratic formula in and it took 28 seconds.

Map, Filter, Reduce Those are the big three for data. More important than those however is mindset and patience with oneself. Writing code that works is the first and most impressive step. Optimizations are fun to think about but unless your computations are sluggish and repeat a lot of unnecessary steps they are rarely a priority.

Build something and shelf it. Trust me, in but a few months you will look back in bewilderment and realize how much you've grown.

I might have gotten things messed up because I am not a medical student. Apparently the swap happens only for MRI and similar things where the picture swaps the coronal plane.

If you want the explanation for it search for sagittal and coronal plane. It gives you a way of talking about bodies independent of rotation.

In medicine you use the view of the examiner like your boyfriend. I don't think that is reasonable for the people lying down though.

Once you start googling some ingredients it is very easy to see what things are for. People are surprised when you tell them chicken flavour is vegan. I still don't think that is a bad thing.

Just cramming in 5 types of sugar and the daily recommended dosis of salt. That is what frustrates me. Maybe a list of purposes would help.

This is not a hard problem once you wrap your head around it. It is the earliest that some programmers learn about recursion which has a lot of pitfalls and can be frustrating at times.

The game is supposed to be a piggy bank for gambling addicts. You do not get money back right away. In the market you could sell your shares but the game manages it for you as a means to protect the gamer from downwards spirals.

The idea is that they get both. The reward of the game but also growing their bonds. There are fees that need to be paid so this is not as easy as the idea makes it out to be but i like the concept.

One additional vertical monitor for e-mail, papers or documentation is great.

It's the length of the string. The number of characters is 6. It's a play on words and a question.
