    Well written, and very recognizable. I felt pretty much the same as the author at the time of my firstborn. The second kid's birth I don't even remember, haha. I can say that 8 yea…

    Data point: I have a medium-complexity data transformation use case that I still prefer pandas for. Reason: I can speed things up fairly easily with Cython functions, and do multit…

    This is a well-written article, and I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment. But when you compare how much $$$ mediocre but heavily marketed games, and "casino mechanics" games s…

    Hear, hear. I was especially appalled by seeing aforementioned reactionaries listed alongside thinkers that likely would've pulled this manifested to shreds (e.g. Bertrand Russell)…

    I'm a very happy user of the app. Love the sankey charts you added. I had a DIY version of that before. Excited to try the self-hosting when I have some free time.

    This resonates. I'm currently reading The Myth of Sisyphus by Camus and he, as an existentialist, reasons that life is indeed worth living. Combine that with the utilitarian argume…

    You should read The Myth of Sisyphus by Camus, which points in the same direction. It even briefly discusses the Dostoyevski quote by the sibling comment.
