Sometime around 13:00 ish, Ajana's talking about The Recurse Centre and she just drops in "he wrote Eloquent JavaScript"... Those 2 words took me down a wonderful little rabbit hole. First of all, I think I'm a bit late for Eloquent JavaScript, I'll still give it a read but it looks like it might be the sort of book I needed to read about 10-20 years ago... But, if you're in that place now, it looks like a fabulous book! But then... Eloquent JavaScript took me off to "Write code that is easy to delete, not easy to extend" on "Programming is Terrible"... and this is wonderful too - it takes one of my favourite rants and expresses it far more eloquently that I could ever manage. More gold-dust! ... Anyway... let's get back to Anjana!
@@OpenSauced concerning?!! 1- mentioning the "level of energy" + "interviews, talks and courses" presumes that the concerning "stalk" was metaphorical not literal and in real life 2- I'm from Egypt.. From the other end of the world, I wish I could be to San Francisco and meet here, but nah! 3- nothing else
@@MohamedRT I believe you wrote this comment with the best intentions. What was referred to in the previous comment are nuances that are usually hard to get as a non-native English speaker especially if you don't share the same cultural space. So, let me be the mediator and explain where @OpenSauced was coming from: 1. Nowadays, calling a grown-up woman a "girl" is usually considered belittling. As a guideline: if a person is not underage, always use the mature term ("man", "woman", etc.). 2. Many women in public are constantly confronted with harassment, even more so in the virtual domain. So, it is a good advice to be especially careful with the wording here. Saying that you're "in love" with her and "stalking" her interviews has a very strong connotation of cyber-stalking. To give you the benefit of the doubt, English probably just isn't your primary language and I guess you weren't aware of how that comment would sound to a native English speaker living in the US.
I think learning through osmosis would be growing up in a culture of programmers. Like imagine if almost everyone around you growing knew how to code and programming was as common as walking or something
learning through osmosis is a real thing, learned most of the things i know about functional programming and programming language design and implementation by just being around smart people who knew about it.
We got companies hiring interns encouraging to file to patents under the company name. Universities claiming 50% of the patent of their students just because they attended. But recent tensions with China is waking up the West from taking the approach of letting somebody else do all the work.
@@lepidoptera9337 🤨 really? lepidopterans: an order of winged insects that includes butterflies and moths. 🤔 soo who is the light source you seek. Me or Anjana? I found her interesting for a sec, cause well her work overlaps mine. I emailed her and she didn't respond. Lost interest after that.
@@victorolvera6482 I am looking for intelligent life in the universe, but it seems very rare. What I do keep finding are unrecognized geniuses who have been exploited. Who took your fame and fortune and which Caribbean island did they buy with money that should have been rightfully yours? ;-)
