My favorite reply so far. I'm 37 and am starting to worry. I haven't run into any issues yet. I have noticed though that experience become a liability. If you wrote JavaScript for …

I seem to pretty much always get a higher score by button mashing, or going up down left right in rotation than by trying to figure it out. :(

You can also just always click the "link" and reply directly to a reply there.

A master's degree, assuming no experience, is more like a warning signal for someone who's stayed in academics too long and has no practical skill. It's like you're hiring a really…

> anything else Noogle Now related. I like Noogle so much I might write up a quick chrome extension that turns Google into Noogle everywhere.

This has very little to do with Python developers deciding between version 2.7 and 3.x. If you wrote a library or an app in Python 3.x packagers should require the appropriate vers…

Where mastering hopefully means to just avoid them whenever possible.

Misery isn't a zero sum game. We can all have infinite amounts of misery.

I definitely am not eating enough vegetables and too much starch, which I know I have to change. Thanks for your other tips.

I get up at 4 am every day and eat breakfast. I still overeat. I've swung back and forth between 280lbs and 220lbs for the last 5 years. I'm currently around 250lbs. I've been unde…

Yeah well it's not like I love being fat. We all know fat is bad, and I wish I had less of it, but it's not like my adipose is going to go away by scaring it with more bad news abo…

Thank you for your replies to my questions! For what it's worth I love the redis interface and appreciate your indepth information.
