Yoghurt + Kefir + Kumis.

Golden Horde conquered the known world fueled by milk byproducts.


Surely alcohol is by far the biggest example.


Aside but I've always hated the phrase "known world". It means "known to the Europeans"


I think in this instance it means "known to the Mongols"


"Known world" in the context of history usually means Eurasia + Africa. Basically all the places that aren't the new world and random islands in the middle of nowhere.


Known world does not usually mean Africa. It generally means Europe and central Asia... because that's the known world to European explorers.

Oceania, Africa, the Americas are not included in that nomenclature usually.


Considering Rome ruled a bunch of Africa I'm pretty sure they knew about it...


I can't believe I'm typing this but actually trying to sneak into US via southern border looks quite promising at the moment.

It should cost you around $20K - $25K, paying for the smugglers and such.

Lots of white collar people from my middle-eastern country has chosen this route for the last 2 years, instead of waiting for the official visa channels.


And then he is back in a country with general toxicity, the internal racism, the risk of mugging and murder plus corruption and being the illegally there. What would be won?


Really? The top comment on HN is to illegally come to the US?


Mate this is Who's Hiring thread, not "Who wants to get hired"

Please do not create noise.


It's great to point things like this out but please don't do it in a mean way!

It happens every month that a few people post to the wrong whoishiring thread by mistake. Usually users point it out and then we move the post (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...).

Edit: p.s. just to balance out the negative - I thought https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39344387 was a great comment. I've been learning a lot about early development (especially its later effects in life) so it struck a note with me.


Quite surprised no one mentioned this:

Take care of the mom. Make sure she is rested, comfortable.

She is the primary caretaker, she is the baby's whole world.

Happy mom - happy baby.


Same here, Google's "How to" search share will be eaten by ChatGPT and similar products in about 5 years maybe.


people won't switch to a "free" sponsored chatbot?


I think it just survived naturally, filling in the cracks left by Java / C++.

And now the era of Textual (https://textual.textualize.io/) is here, python may get the spotlight even more.


Can you elaborate why we're living in the era of Textual? Genuinely. It seems like a pretty nifty library but I'm not sure it transcends to killer library territory. Thanks!


Regardless of which digital tools they use, everyone is a potential terrorist if the government is tyrannical enough.


A few drops of lemon juice also cancels a hiccup.


If databases are in play, instead of trying to understand the business logic, have a go at understanding the database structure first.

What are your tables, how they are related etc.

Then look at the modules that interact with the data layer directly and move up.

This is a language agnostic approach though, but it has worked out well for me.


That method works well for initially building the system too. Start in the db and model the relationships and then move up.


What I'd suggest (having quite a bit of history with UK recruiters):

For each section in your work history, create a subtitle and just list the technologies used.

Eg:

2020 - 2021 Company A

Technologies used: Python, Django, MySQL

2021 - 2022 Company B

Technologies used: Kubernetes, MongoDB, C++, pandas

This will just help recruiters who'll be skimming through your CV to put you in the right category.


I had a crappy CV years ago organised like that. Now I wanted to go all fancy with a LaTeX one, but I forgot about adding a list of technologies for each entry.

Thanks.
