You and antihero are talking about two different kinds of "good listening," though. "Being a good listener" has both a practical and a social component. You are referring to the social component ("in Japanese cultur

It seems like a lot of the discussion surrounding DOD that gets popular interest is centered on a small set of patterns that you can apply. And the implication that DOD is the application of these patterns usually follows. Taking this artic

In case you're serious and unaware: it's a contraction of "would have," hence the apostrophe. It's not a single word spelled weirdly.

IBM's response to Google called "On 'Quantum Supremacy'" has this to say: "Because the original meaning of the term “quantum supremacy,” as proposed by John Preskill in 2012, was to describe the point where qua

I think that what you are saying here doesn't necessarily serve as a counterpoint to the GP's point. Rather, it's only an additional piece of evidence. Where GP referred to things like a parent being sick serving as a downwar

Software development does not have to be a stressful experience. I'm sorry that you believe it does as that implies that your experience has largely been stressful. In my mind, that perspective is a huge red flag for me when I'm o

I would like to point out that I was not making any statements as to the validity of either of those two statements. Rather, they are commonly-held beliefs irrespective of their truth values.

>I think this is the right's perspective, but it's not an accurate portrayal of the left's. I therefore disagree with the assertion that this is a fair representation of the "public consciousness" on this issue.
