    this post made sense to me https://teltam.github.io/posts/soft-dictionary-keys.html It helps to think of kqv as a form of look up.

    Thank you for being flippant. I'm too poor for a therapist.

    I agree with you except post-independence in the middle of the 19th and 20th century , the supposedly benevolent West hedged and continue to plunder and usurp Africa and Asia. Valu…

    Thanks. Seems like a technical problem on his throw then? I'm not aware of the intricacies of surface and I assumed it was a standardized setup.

    Source for the reason Johannes Vetter failed? Does not look like this was covered well in the press.

    I'm still reading up so looking for resources. What's a good introduction that talks about how the Chinese state is looking at individual choices? 5 year planning makes sense but t…

    One idea that seems to make sense to me is that social mobility is the equivalent of starvation in a socialist setup. What we see today with the poorer sections of society especial…

    Indeed, one of the more interesting ideas I've been considering is how does society think about the delayed effects on mental health and attention deficit. For example, one might a…

    Does appearing taller win more points for gymnastics? I've always found it weird that some sports have women wearing scant clothing compared to the mens events. Volleyball for exam…

    Yes exactly, was looking to comment this. HTML and other formats (markdown) are driven by adoption and stick around for that reason.

    I work for AWS and the concept of Bar Raisers sits in a weird grey area. There are plenty of decent candidates who pass the bar but we do stack ranking for the year end review. So …

    yes excellent mock, I see what you mean. How would you deal with multiple levels of nesting? :) Let's say you're at level 5 which is pretty reasonable. Oh and I also forgot about l…

    Great mock up, this is pretty interesting. Food for thought!

    I'm curious to understand your use-case, would be open to explaining more? Do you actually want to overlay the code directly into the parent method or would a tooltip (similar to h…

    I wonder if that education should also explicitly include how likes, ads and attention are correlated. Making them understand their place in the world is good but SM is a different…

    Most editors have code folding. I've noticed this helps when there are comments or it's easy to figure out the branching or what not. However, what you're asking for is a design st…

    What techniques do you use now to cope? I'm going to go get a diagnosis as well, I think I have enough anecdotal evidence to talk to a medical professional.

    I have the same problem. Once I get some sense of understanding the overall skill or problem I lose interest? Novice skill is definitely a worse thing to have and getting better ta…

    I've lost two grandparents. I know how dire it is and I'm sitting here in the US of A not able to do anything about it.

    Not disagreeing on data fudging. Just asking for some cooler heads when thinking about the situation.

    Comment #26917830

    yes I agree with the data fudging, however I'm just asking for some restraint in extrapolation. One anecdote of furnace melting does not mean we're in hell. I'm saying this not out…

    Good point but not quite. TN for example and most southern states are doing fairly well.

    Is there a name for this effect? It sounds similar to what women experience when they don't wear makeup for example (makes them come across as less competent).
