I think it’s forking Wordpress to get rid of the madman who is bdfl while not being actually being benevolent. Who is he going to target next, development agencies?

You just described a bunch of tools that you have to deploy around Wordpress to work around its myriad deficiencies and inefficiencies.

I’ve worked extensively with Wordpress; that’s precisely why I hate it so much. It needs to die.

The proper solution, 20 years from now, will not descend from this branch.

> What does the project actually do, that something so useless was deployed?

Describes a lot of tech hype stuff in the last couple of decades.

Why f#ck would anyone ever want to contribute to the Linux kernel when you’re in danger of being on the receiving end of a rant like that…

Are all those Twitter testimonials fake? None seem to be actual accounts.

This is a widespread misconception: thinking of dynamic programming as just a form of memoized recursion is not the way to learn DP because it makes it extremely difficult to understand how to do the style of DP problems that involve filling out a 2D array.

For example, look at the "best time to buy and sell stock" series on leetcode: https://leetcode.com/problems/best-time-to-buy-and-sell-stoc....

These are much more naturally done by filling out an array, right? I've never done them with a recursion; I can't say I've thought hard about it -- is there a natural recursive solution?

(I linked to iii above but for anyone who hasn't tried them they are a great intro to DP problems; start with the first one: https://leetcode.com/problems/best-time-to-buy-and-sell-stoc...)

This is a strawman, they never said “the vast majority” or “used”.

They said “guns are made for killing people” which is absolutely a true statement, many guns are specifically made for killing people.
