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

Interesting, I'd kinda lost interesting in the last few seasons were Rick was just a straight asshole with no real growth (or even teasing of growth). Just watching characters treat each other poorly isn't a particularly fun pass

I think NPC is the wrong terminology here - everyone should be the main character in their life - to have meaning and agency. But I think the problem arises in how 'main character' is defined and expressed - having the idea that y

Does typing count? What does it mean to not work with one's hands in this context?

I think this is a bit of cynical take, but that entire article to me seems to be the author as trying to just say "you didn't want it bad enough". A position I've always hated because it makes every failing a personal on

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, do

For the animal to not go extinct. That's literally the stated purpose in the article. It's practically the same reason for all of Southern African conservation - to stop species going extinct from the continual human expansion.

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 diurnal and practical

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 good place to start. I

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 anger

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 the missile for maximum

God I hate the emoji and checkmark usage so much. It feels so try-hard cutesy. Just give me normal bulleted items, I can read.

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) device

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 engineering standard for #1 is

I'd also add: - OP takes rectifying what they deem to be deficiencies seriously, and actively work to fill those gaps. At first I was reading the article thinking "wtf, that can't be real" and by the end felt I had respe

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 / hardw

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 & build

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 having t

I suspect it's the optics of it. If you can fly people around the moon, then landing people on the moon is a more reasonable next step. I agree that it may not be entirely logical, but keeping public and funding opinion positive &

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 figures lik

So I'm not super well versed with Roblox, but I'd assumed it was aimed at a younger audience? So wouldn't the above numbers indicate that you have a growing younger gamer population (e.g. in Roblox), and an older one in Steam

It can be. And it also places strain on the people around you too if the kid isn't settled and easy to travel with. Not the kids fault, but last time I travelled, there was a couple travelling with a child that was crying, hysterically

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 what we can. I
