I feel like the >(cost!!) factor can't really be overstated there. IF you have money then you can get healthcare, if you don't, then you're out of luck. It's a massive gate which needs to be passed, and if you can't…
Haha I think you're correct there.
I've had the opposite experience. I've found more middle class people who have a broader education (art, science, technology, literature, etc), than supposed 'elite' people. I remember a particularly fun conversation…
Personal gripe - but I absolutely despise the term 'elites'. The emotive implication is always that there is a group of people that are just categorically better than everyone else, but on closer examination you find an…
Was thinking this too. My parents are both avid birders, and I think it would make a fun addition to the house.
Did... you read the article? I get the feeling you just heard the word 'wild dog' and assumed 'feral domesticated canine'. That's not what they're talking about. They're talking about a dog species native to Southern…
Does typing count? What does it mean to not work with one's hands in this context?
I dislike the title really - I'm not sure where they pull the 'most hated' aspect from. A lot of what I've seen is that leopards generally fall into that category, mainly because they'll also happily kill people, dogs…
So by that logic, for you to feel safe and not take any responsibility at all, we should just get rid of all the large predators, then correct? Also shows a lack of understanding of the dogs themselves, as they're…
Interesting point. Clear and visible warnings similar to tabacco and gambling websites (at least here in NZ) would be great. A clear and explicit call out of the dangers and a direct link on how to get help would be a…
Same here. Still using the original M1 as a daily dev pc. The portability and battery life are great. Biggest gripe is the limited number of USB-C ports...
Definitely agree with that.
I think anger has a place - there are circumstances that I think it's needed, but they're basically fight or flight scenarios. The idea that all anger is bad is a naive position to take. But I think you're talking about…
But what's the fundamental emotion then? What is anger derived from?
Agreed. Even some of the latest IR missiles (AIM-9X I believe) also include a visual seeking component to compliment the IR seeker, and try to identify aircraft types based on their outlines (presumably for orienting…
I hear what you're saying, especially around just moving to iOS not being a better argument. However with > And if I'm already this motivated I'm certainly motivated enough to wait 24hs on future (more locked down)…

I was thinking about this too, and I think there are two different views you can take. 1. Do you want to work IN the games industry? 2. Do you want to make and ship your own games? I think the overall internal…
My take on it is more around domain speciality, than a purely technical focus. I'm a web developer / designer-lite (amongst other things in previous lives), and have embedded myself as the web-tech guy for an embedded /…
I suspect part of it is also just visibility. You can't be hired, if people don't know about you. Being active in a community gives pretty large visibility surface area, while still being able to provide genuine value &…
Socials being flooded across the board feels weird, but it's also how network effects are _supposed_ to work. I just hate the fact that I feel jaded and cynical about this as my default position.
I think it's easier for kids to get hold of a phone at a younger age and become accustomed to it, and don't realise the jank / frustration it introduces when doing certain tasks. I become unreasonably frustrated when…
Wildly disagree with that. I think the overwhelming majority of people want simple, peaceful existence, and that the 'lack of meaning' can be solved through deeper shared community goals and aspirations. More prominent…
Definitely hard to say. I get being angry and frustrated, and circumstances surrounding being a parent might not help at all. For instance my wife and I have no family to help out. It's just us. It's hard, but we do…
Definitively, if Trump gets voted in for a third term.
