God people really think other people GAF about their beards. FWIW I stopped reading there, so this might be relevant to why people talk over you.

I have been told many times that I do not look like an engineer because I do not present as a nerdy anime type. I can say with absolute certainty that this perception has caused ha…

30 under 30 is a shitty who's who of scam artists

ditto

While it's possible that he did it for clout or as a FU to software companies, I think many people, including myself, pirated software in the early days of computing because the so…

It is really annoying (and in my opinion, almost misleading) that named imports from lodash do not tree shake. That said, you still can import individual modules without having to …

I think it is unclear why you would write a list of alternatives to lodash unless you are trying to make the case that using these implementations is better than using the lodash f…

Exactly. Hard to treat someone who is dead

My point of confusion is still my initial question. It was actually the description of the mechanism, as given, that had me questioning it's effects on the overall toxicity/danger …

Does this prevent death or just the perceived effects of the drug? This could be very dangerous for users who relapse. There is a known pattern of users who get off opioids then re…

My problem is that the whole thing is based on old data and a false premise that life is safe when vaccinated people are only around vaccinated people. We know this is slightly mor…

Single people can have plenty of commitments that don't include a spouse or pets. It is much harder to accomplish most tasks as an individual vs a team. The case you present seems …

This feels like a heavy-handed response to me. Socializing in the office doesn't need to be a substitute, but can be one many missing pieces in a well-rounded social life. Many of …

Working from home has been nice, but I have enjoyed the freedom of flexible working. I am not surprised by the overwhelming amount of people who never want to return to the office …

I was a bit shocked to discover that Google Wifi actually performed worse than my (7 year old?) Airport Extreme. And it pretty much requires you to login if you want to do anything…

This comment is boldly presumptuous. I could argue that you love the feeling of superiority and righteous indignation so much that you completely disregard general etiquette when s…

This author doesnt understand sarcasm - another reason I tend to ignore anyone who uses the word "toxic" outside of health and safety.

Sounds like they could have solved their problem by hiring a solid Front-End Developer. Saying that you like to "focus on the backend" is a lot like saying you only like to do half…

Does anybody know who is actually hosting this content? Does pocket casts host the media files, or is it just a search platform for content hosted elsewhere? Seems like you could e…

As an "Apple Developer" (not a self-identification, just what they call me on their website), I've been able to download Mac OSX Sierra for a bit. Did I do that right? Damn, it's m…

Why is there never any intelligent person with enough of a moral compass to intervene and tell these people to leave the kid alone?

I forked the Cobalt2 theme and altered the colors and icons to work with the Monokai Extended color palette. You can download the ST3 theme here at https://github.com/wdhilliard-ge…

I recognize the prevalance of sports in society. I still can not recognize the importance. You might think that is a rude statement if you like sports. You might also think that "K…
