I know what you mean. I was forced to use emacs for a year. I found it an interesting coincidence the person who forced emacs on us had the worst carpal tunnel syndrome and couldn't type on a standard keyboard without…
It's not astroturf. It's pointing out you've been living with this stuff for years, Amazon isn't new and special. If you want the problem solved then it shouldn't be about Amazon, it should be about entire process. If…
How often do you write bash scripts or do you always write all automation in some other language? Just curious how much your conviction influences your behavior

Which carriers are these? I just went to the AT&T site, they wanted $30 a month for an iPhone + a separate $85 a month for cellular service. If instead I pick "wireless->bring your own" and go through the steps it was…
Rude seems like a too strong a word for it but it's normal culture to fill someone's cup if it's empty and it's rude to poor for yourself without first filling your friend's cup, and ideally they'll ask for the bottle…
It's never as simple as "asians are guess, westerns are ask". If that was actually true there would be no bosses, no company presidents, no politicians, no entrepreneurs in asian countries. Separately, I once read a…
