One thing that really helped me was to start viewing my news media in black and white. Without the colored dressing, a lot of (especially partisan political) articles have much less emotional impact on me. Note: this worked particularly wel

Some of these are considered rude, but ibd I do a lot of them, anyway e.g. rubbing disposable chopsticks to remove splinters, because a chopstick splinter in the gums is miserable, and using chopsticks to cut apart food. They seem less lik

The article did not also point out issues like the compiler or interpreter having a runtime error, the hardware the software is running on having a defect, etc. Do we consider these out of scope of the discussion?

The main caveat is that you have to enable developer mode on the Android device to load the apps, but that is typical if you are running your own apps. Godot uses a Python-like language instead of Lua, which is good for me. Lots of people

Unit tests with a text fixture of every URL format you can think of, and every time one breaks your e.g. parser, you add it and some permutations to the list. Eventually, you have a vast file with tons of nasty edge cases to ensure that yo
