By this criteria I've been addicted to chess, reading books, programming, and possibly video games! Not various drugs, though, despite consuming excessive quantities for extended periods. I absolutely think it's a double standar

Delivering residentials after dark is an absolute nightmare. Is that house on the corner 5647 or 5643? Is there one house or two houses down the gravel driveway? Hope you've been driving the route for 30 years and have your daily 200-s

I'm still using a Nexus 4 with 2gb of RAM, running android 7. 6 was terrible performance, but it's been running well with 7; no issues with constant swapping or the like. The camera is absolutely atrocious, and the 8gb internal st

For me: adblocker and absolute minimum of browser addons/plugins. Caution when installing/running just about anything, this is more important vs other OSes because you end up running executables from random websites. An antivirus

I disagree, lots of smart people who know it's bullshit are still involved (because it's very easy money if you know what you're doing). Any sort of tangible value is utterly irrelevant, what matters is future market opinion.

This is done, drivers do get a route (EDD trace). Problem is that there's a min wage human (machines are too slow/expensive) with heavy time constraints who loads the truck. If they're part of the 1/3 that is a peak

It's an explanation of why a Java client would be suspect as an "investor" - experienced dev teams don't release them. Most of these projects are primarily marketing ventures ("look, we're the next Ethereum!&qu

Most likely it's that the majority of experienced crypto devs (aka people who have been around since it was "fork bitcoin and change PoW algo + logo") will be familiar with C++, so a Java implementation is an odd choice that

A slight oversimplification, it'll either get pulled off the truck and take a spin around the center or be looked over by someone there, but yes that's totally possible. Getting residential ground delivered "on schedule"

Thanks for the link! That's more or less the road I'm starting down right now, albeit with likely a bumpier past (dropped out of HS in addition to college and spent a few years doing almost nothing productive.)

In other words: treat your friends the same as strangers, or at least choose them completely randomly to avoid bias. This strikes me as unrealistic.

An amusing read, but the overbearing narcissism (I did this; something happened; that something is therefore caused by my action) makes it hard to read as a rational argument and not a psychoanalysis case study.

Sounds like they may have been referring to the Tillamook Burn. Also, I doubt it was you, but this reminds me of a conversion on Saddle Mtn that happened to be right while the Eagle Creek fire was starting.
