List of free (and legal) resources (textbooks, lectures notes, videos) to study mathematics:

Hey, no, I have build a website with free mathematics resources for university students.

I am getting good traffic and now I am looking for monetization options that would be non-invasive to the project (for example. I don't want crappy, non-relevant adds).

Ok, I will risk and jump in, because I am curious.

"Sales is the process of helping others solve their problems and then showing how your solution is the best choice"

So is it a philosophy of some sorts? Mental mindset?

Why is it called "sales"? To be purposefully easily confused with what a regular person understands the world "sales"?

This is all so strange to me. Every time I ask about "sales" I get this very non specific, vague, metaphoric answer...

What do people mean EXACTLY when they speak about learning "sales"?

What is an example of using "sales" knowledge in a sass application?

Where exactly is the line between sales and marketing?

Is copy on my landing page sales or marketing?

I am so confused.

Location: Poland, Poznań / Remote

Technologies: React, JavaScript, TypeScript, recently some Python

Willing to relocate: in 3-4 months yes, preferably Germany, Switzerland or France. I don't speak German nor French.

I also studied CS on polish university and I feel we had the best of both worlds:

Initial programming courses were electives, where you could choose between more basic or more advanced "intro to programming" course. Basic had python, while advanced had c and c++.

Similarly logic classes were in basic and advanced groups and it was easy to choose the group you want and switch groups during course.

In fact, I was the guy who came for CS degree after never doing great at math or CS in high school and it reaaaaaally helped me to get up to speed with the others.

This advice does not work.

I have been "giving it another week" for 3 weeks now, trying to figure out which direction it is going to go.

I am a polish native speaker and only after I have met my french-speaking girlfriend, I realized how insanelly difficult my language is, for all the reasons you have mentioned.

There is so much comments about whether the proposal is good or bad. But for me, without making usability tests, there is just no way to know if it's better.

For me proposal for redesign without any experimental data presented is just an invitation to endless speculation.

It's funny how my experience is exactly reverse. Since I joined startup I learn much less, since we can't afford experimentation and there are no other front end devs here, so I don't get a chance to learn backend stuff, since someone has to do front end part.

I also hoped to learn some business stuff, but most of it happens behind closed doors between founders and investors while you code boring crud application.

This is said so often and yet for me personally gym helps only very temporarily - just after workout I feel great, but the next day anxiety might kick-in again.

What would be your advice for older (25+) people who want to get into science? Is it even possible? Or should I just accept that the train has left and focus on something else? Can you develop your math/logic/critical thinking skills at that point?

How about if you never excelled at these topics in school? Is hard work enough, or do you think some people are born with these talents?

Just to point out - RxJs 5 allows you to bundle only operators you need, thus significantly lowering output file size. You could actually ship to the browser only features equivalent to those of this library. Not sure what actual numbers are though.

I will just add that even though I disagree with proposition of that article, understanding this JS behavior is key in writing big redux apps, since it is main source of wasted renders optimizations. If you do it wrong, whole app might rerender on smallest changes.

This is actually pretty bad. In redux dev tools you will not see if data is being fetched or failure occured. Also, if you serialize and deserialize state object - say save it in local storage - empty array will be neither fetching nor failure one and strange bugs will occur.
