User error. You should have known about pinning versions. If this is the reason you want to change package managers, you should consider this. Either that or maybe macOS isn't the OS for you. Try gentoo.

To me it ends up feeling like people who say things like "people are stupid" and use the Dunning-Kruger effect to hand wave away harder socio-psychological problems are projecting their own insecurities of their lack of knowledge

Maybe start by using it to remember git commands, or something of that nature

I love HN but reading the comments is sometimes the most eye rolling thing I could possibly imagine doing. Devoid of humor and personality in favor of some kind of robotic logic-only approach. I get some people want it to be purely academic

The easiest way to not be an interrupter is to be quiet until it's your turn to talk or when someone asks you a question. Whatever you have to say can wait, no matter how relevant it is. If it's important, write it down for later.

That's neat, but doing sound design and creating listenable/good compositions are two different endeavors. You'd likely be better off writing an actual DSP engine in C than trying to diddle with frequencies in this way. Use S

Pace is relative and I think teams will generally average out in terms of pace. Finding a pace that fits you and your style would be an essential factor in having better work efficacy. My boss works really fast, works constantly and is prob
