I spend maybe $300 in a year on clothing. I ship at Goodwill and other thrift shops. I cannot imagine spending that much annually just on clothing. Would feel like such a chump. I will buy new running shoes... And hiking boots if needed but

You are laughably incorrect. Do you have kids? They are face timing and sending audio messages constantly. Maybe cut the snark or take it back over to Reddit?

Have two teens. They call and do voice chats (Discord, etc.) all the time. Face time is huge with their generation, for example. Now two things they don't seem to do is leave voicemails and check their voicemail. But, they do call peo

The most painful audiobooks I've found are the ones that are volunteer narrated. I think it was for Librivox or something like that? Holy hell it is bad every single time. But yes, there are some professional narrator that I am baffled

Exactly where my mind has gone repeatedly in this saga. How do you all not understand this now? Fix your shit, then launch. But, as you said... Just as with Challenger, business and political pressure.

Apt comment. I was sitting here thinking to myself, "Do I see mental images often? At all? Yes I think I do... But is it less than others? Or about normal? How would I know?" Also, I think people who say they have no inner monolog

Roof over their head, food, water/sewer, medications, possibly gas and vehicle upkeep depending on location, children's expenses, and internet. I realize there are other bills as well. Just trying to make a point on the importance

Of course not, but I don't believe most people I am friends with (or family) spend time really looking into products before they buy. Maybe a car or something? But a TV? When you can get them for $200-$300 at Walmart? Unlikely, unfort

Pretty sure all of you are in my simulation... Right? Or maybe I'm just in a coma and this is a coma dream...

That would be really cool to try out. I hope someone is doing that.

Yeah, that finding unfortunately killed any excitement I may have had for this lol I feel like saying Minoxidip is barely effective is almost even giving it too much credit.

And you let him grow. I started balding around 26 or so and have this tuft in the front that actually doesn't look ridiculous and from.the front makes it look like maybe I'm a little less bald. I've yet to be able to let that

You must mean 'existed' in Ultima Online. Hardly anyone plays it anymore, unfortunately. Still my favorite gaming memories.

Tigers better watch out too... I hear tuna are working on developing a series of breathing apparatus so they can go on land to hunt and kill tigers.

What do you mean by "contribute to society without permission"?

I try. My depression is definitely at it's all time worst. I've accomplished some crazy shit at times, but at this point it is very very difficult to see any light at the end of the tunnel or any of that which in turn kind of lays

I really appreciate your comment. Won't lie... was really sad to see only two people responded when I returned to this haha But, your comment was helpful. I never thought to look in the public sector. I just always assumed they would

Didn't that happen in a plane recently? There have been so many random issues in the air lately, especially with the Boeing planes... so I may be misremembering, but I thought some guy opened the emergency hatch and the plane was up th

Right, but the original commenter is saying read all the docs, front to back. That's just nonsense.

Advice like that above is honestly terrible for newer developers, I believe. It feels insurmountable for many people, myself included. I simply don't have the brain capacity to: A. Read an entire language's docs front to back. As

Is it laziness or is it the fact that brains are different and many people (me included) can't absorb that much material and then retain it as well with so many other things going on in our work/lives. I would struggle just to rea

Many people's brains cannot absorb that much information. If I sat down and read full docs front to back I would remember maybe 3 things. I don't think this is overall practical advice. Then reading the source code too for all t
