As somebody in the US who had to do 2 months of PT before I could even get an MRI of an injury, this is both surprising, and yet also not, to hear. I broadly agree though; about a …

I’ve been out of the Java scene for a really long time, but will be coming back to it soon. I’m curious - these performance issues described here, are they inherit to how Java itse…

This is actually a really cool feature. I've never had any interest in an Apple Watch, but this is something I'd be genuinely interested in. Too bad it requires an iPhone largely. …

This context helps me understand more what you're getting at quite a bit. I dunno if I could manage the same approach but I at least appreciate how you're thinking about it. Thanks…

> Another issue is that in your mid 30's almost everyone has settled down and started having kids and only really prefer socializing with other people who have settled down and hav…

True, good point. Makes sense! Thanks for the improvement!

Not too interested into diving into the debate itself, but one minor point I wanted to add to the article where they count the commits to squash and then do `git rebase -i HEAD~n` …

There is offering from the creators of Peertube I believe: https://sepiasearch.org/ . I think instances have to be added manually into the index, and tbh I don't use it much and so…

Sorry I'm unaware of what you're saying? Are you saying that pilots are being selected without meeting training requirements and licensing? That doesn't sound right and I must be m…

This is a bit tangential, but, have middle managers ever actually had those powers? I mean this in a genuine way. My post college career began in 2011, and all I've known is hopefu…

Yeah the behavior was completely counter intuitive to what I was expecting. It does make sense though since it would be kinda weird if an HTML attribute could change the structure …

Yeah that makes sense. Definitely vital to have your language of choice when possible!

Cool! Looking through this made me curious - how do people tend to translate between languages? For example, do people tend to know English and then translate it to that language? …

I find that for calendars and to do lists to work well, I need reminders to tell me to check the lists lol. Not great.

"I’d personally go on to say that it’s risky to put too much emotional investment into something you don’t own/control." Bingo! This is exactly what happened to me. What I learned …

A tangential question then - what do you think or suggest is a good way to reduce that fear on the part of the parent? It kind of sounds like a long term project, as in through mos…

Yeah, this exactly. I've moved away from describing things as "too busy" and say something like "out of capacity." I don't love the term capacity, but it's the best I have. It's so…

My main worry is not so much this change, but rather when they decide that this also applies to Premium. I've been paying for a bit, and run an ad blocker. I'm concerned that it wi…

I get your point, and they do address this later on in the piece kind of. It sounds like it's perfectly valid to say no, especially after reviewing the document and their architect…

If you're looking for some interesting Zevon listens, there's a few YouTube videos from the early 80's that are quite good. He also has shows on archive.org which can be listened t…

Zevon's last album is titled "The Wind" and yeah it really does stand out! His last performance on Late Night w/ Letterman is also something to check out. Really lots of his materi…

This is cool. I was planning on setting up a PiHole soon, but maybe I'll try this instead. Are there any downsides you've noticed? Also, I'm cool with a paid product, but it looks …

Yeah this really threw me off too. I kept saying no it didn’t solve the halting problem thinking of the more generalized version, not that particular case. Eventually I got it, but…

Yeah, exactly why I mentioned it. I don't have that setup, so it's different for me. Don't want to be dismissive of that point! How does it work though? Do you sell stock to use as…

My perspective is a bit different since I don't have stock options, just plain retirement and such. So, take this with that in mind. I would recommend giving yourself a break from …
