Thanks to both of you!

ademon Free Mathematics Books

Whenever I see a collection of (e)Books, I have this urge to build something that functions the following way: You pick a topic out of the collection, the page tells you the prerequisites to understand the topic along with books covering that topic. For each book, it shows a tree of books, beginning with one that requires no prior knowledge up to a book that covers the topic. Something that shows you a "path to mastery". Do you think something like that is practical?

ademon Co-Founder of Youtube makes his first comment in 8 years

seems more like a channel status update (or whatever they call it in youtube). i see it as some kind of "what happened to the youtube we built" attitude, which seems appropriate.

ademon Don't read HN

Don't read HN, instead, post in HN and promote your blog!

ademon A new HTML5 Admin Teamplate

Am I the only one who thinks that those one-size-fits-all solutions (esp. Bootstrap) are really not the way to go? Sure, it drastically reduces the development time, but using templates for specific purposes are meant to fail, aren't they?

I assumed this article is some kind of a joke but after reading the comments, I seem to be wrong?

ademon Editor wars. Ugh.

I don't understand the psychology behind complaining about "pointless HN discussions" while submitting a link to that complaint, which, coincidentally, is on the submitters website. Maybe someone can enlighten me...

ademon Ask HN: How did you make your first $10,000?

Regular full-time job as a service desk employee. Not the best achievement associated with it, that's why I'm pursuing a research-oriented education in university now. I was young though, I hit the mark 1 year ago (I was 21)…

ademon Why people should be more considerate

Thanks rotw, in fact I'm currently situated in this awkward overlap between having the practical skills but lacking the appropriate papers/documents to get further. I'll move to another location, so hopefully my views will be obsolete by the time I meet new people.

ademon Why people should be more considerate

First of all, thank you for taking the time and reading my text. Maybe I should've mentioned that I have a Turkish background, therefore I understand peolovictor's point of considering the experiences of others. The point I wanted to make is that, at least based on my own experience, people are getting less sensitive on the educational choice of others and have less empathy. But as always, these views are highly subjective and dependent on the context, so I can understand any criticism.
