Blog postOur perception of quality is strongly influenced by internet ratings. We look out for Amazon reviews, movie ratings, how many stars that new game has, the reputation of restaurants in Yelp, or the “coolest” touristic attractions on TripAdvisor. Relying on the wisdom of the masses via online rating systems is a part of our internet […]

Blog postYou might have heard of palindromic sentences. You can read the letters in these sentences forwards of backwards, and they’ll still form the same words. Try reading these sentences backwards: Live not on evil. Race fast, safe car! Never odd or even. But there is another word play that is even more impressive: a magic […]

Blog postSmartphones became the tool for reaping most of the magic modern society brought: they enable us to order lunch, get hotel rooms, consult the global knowledge, communicate with to each other, and so much more.

Blog postWith enough and time and programming skills, a single person can create an app that will do almost anything you can imagine. Yes, creating something that will change the world does not sound far-fetched for coders. Maybe that’s why many of us are attracted to entrepreneurship. The problem is, most coders don’t realize it takes […]

Blog postJust a couple of days ago, I had a friend tell me something along those lines: “Hey, you’re a systems engineer, right? Can you help me upgrade my Windows? I wanna install the best version, but I don’t know how… I’m sure you’ve done it hundreds of times!” 🤦 “Well…” I said, “I haven’t been […]

Blog postCoding is underneath nearly everything—from automation systems that drive our manufacturing plants to recommendation systems getting us addicted to Facebook. Coding is now the ultimate solution to problems. It’s fascinating and inspiring: who hasn’t seen the Iron-Man movies, and didn’t dream of creating a Jarvis program of his own? It’s engaging to think that complex […]

Blog postIn this post, we’ll tackle one the most famous puzzles in the world: The Zebra Puzzle, also known as Einstein’s riddle. Legend goes that Einstein invented the riddle himself, and that only 2% of people are able to solve it. I call bullshit on that. It’s already widely accepted that Einstein didn’t invent the riddle.

Blog postIn contrast to most my classmates, I was excited to learn just about everything in school. Be it history and geography, or math and physics. School wasn’t even enough. Back home, I’d take my father’s books to read. Books like The Servant, Freakonomics and The Facebook Effect. By then, I was just a 13-year-old nerdy […]

Blog postBack when I was fresh out of school and I started to program professionally, I didn’t care about the job titles I’d get. I was comfortable being an “IT Analyst”, a “Development Engineer”, or even a “Junior Developer”. If the position involved programming and I felt like I was a good fit, then I would […]
