I don't think that's what OP is doing at all, you're just setting up a dunk for yourself. Congrats on saying "Simpsons did it".

Apparently if you spend all your time either working or interviewing, even at places you don't want to wind up, it'll all just come together perfectly because that's all your schedule is. These threads get depressing real fas

Hey, I know it's just a small comment on HN so I don't know the whole picture and you very well may already know/do this, but people who tend to have free time to just pump out side projects without worrying about work tend t

Taking a few delivery jobs while being relatively well off isn't the same as people picking this up as a 2nd or 3rd job and depending on it. I can't believe I have to point out that most of the people being affected negatively by

>The people who claim a right not to be offended are engaging in “discussion” only to redefine the limits of what’s allowed to be discussed. I've gotta say, this sounds real similar to the "very fine people on both sides"

I think trying to figure that out is the exciting part, and I'd prefer to err on the side of generosity.

Hard disagreement, if something can feel pain and suffering then we should be striving to overcome the need to inflict that on them. Also, just because we don't "owe" it to them doesn't mean we shouldn't. Being nice

Seeing people say things like "Simple competition sorts it out" as if any complex problem can be answered like that. We should really know better, given our field. Also interesting that basically anyone saying anything mildly crit

Reading this makes me feel less bad, I tend to think I'm making excuses for myself and/or just being lazy. Especially because I also have to do some tech support stuff, side meetings, etc, while trying to work on (at least one) pr
