This is a sad reminder of what I sounded like when I was having a break down. Poor guy can’t see he’s having an episode. I’ve been there. No one ever would have convinced me otherw…

“No better”? I’ll disagree there. “This is when I reseted it and decided to return it” - I respect this. I’m honestly very curious what you’ve decided on in its place.

Yeah, I swear this is being posted so often it’s becoming something I’m starting to ignore (kind of becoming the boy who cried wolf) It feels like the more recent versions of these…

+1 I love Alex’s channel. Highly entertaining!

Yeah, lots of stuff on Quackwatch about him. Not exactly flattering. I’ll pass after reading that stuff. Broken clocks being right twice a day and all.

I think most anyone on HN associates “scrapy” with the python library that performs a similar-ish function. I would highly suggest renaming, for many reasons, but other than the re…

Without health insurance, yeah, it’s way cheaper.

Whoa, never heard this view. I guess it makes sense to question it if you’ve never had it happen. As a former alcoholic, I can tell you it’s definitely real, although I guess maybe…

Must be a great feeling to have Chris Hadfield, himself, tell you he’s happy to hear the good news. Hell, I feel humbled by proxy just because I saw his tweet!

“...Unless one or the other initiates force...” If someone was making fun of an awkward, possibly autistic looking man, because he had long untrimmed fingernails (or whatever insec…

1st incident is understandable if you look at in a different light. I have 5 sisters and I’ve heard this often enough that it’s become a reflex of mine to pretend to be a stranger’…

The first situation was something that was a tough call of whether or not to intervene, and she was upset she didn’t. Understandable. Second was silly... A female staff member, doe…

I’m sorry you had to see such an awful comment. I’ve been in your situation, and it will get better. Even if it doesn’t feel like it will. Some solid actionable items have been sug…

There’s a theme here. Everyone sees your comment as an attack, or at best in very poor taste, but you. Your replies have only cemented that view. Sounds like OP isn’t the only one …

This was a fantastic write-up. Learned a lot! Thanks for documenting your process like this!

Cloud guru courses seem like something I want to do but the first time I watched one on Udemy (via work subscription), I couldn’t stand the presenter because he spent half the time…

That Russian music was so cool

I have big scar on my thumb and it still works great for me. What do you find is most problematic about it for you?

Ditto. My brother uses some of our stories in his stand-up act sometimes: Mom: “Unplug the phone! The government is listening to our conversations!” Brother: “Mom... of course they…

Not OP, but this isn’t always true. Might be true for slow brewing depression, but not for biologically triggered mental changes (triggered by some diseases, some drugs, etc). Ther…

Get LSD for a new perspective. Not a joke.

Have you ever wondered why you’re always so angry? I looked at your comment history and your bio... sheesh man, please seek out a mental health professional. It’s not normal. I’m g…
