I'm not refuting what you said, I'm asking you to elaborate why you said it.

What is the point of this comment? Do you mean to say we should cease the pursuit of DEI because we've "come so far"? Of course that's engaging with you with the assumption that yo…

I think the reason discord got so popular is because of the ease of use. Being able to join a server with a link (and not even having to download a client if you don't want), being…

We have masked men grabbing people off the streets with no accountability. Perhaps you should be asking for evidence of lack of human rights abuse.

I thought I recognized that name: Nylund also wrote some books for the Halo series which I enjoyed, although I was already a fan of the games.

I enjoyed Braid and this revelation doesn't change that, but there's a lot of entertainment and it's easy to not support someone who has views (or at least doesn't express them pub…

If you don't care about competitive balance or the "identity" of magic it probably didn't. Long answer: the introduction of non-magic sets like SpongeBob SquarePants, Deadpool, or …

Firefox (and probably others) allows you to set up custom search engines (like Wikipedia). So when I know I am trying to get to Wikipedia or npm or whatever I just do an @wikipedia…

I disagree with this thought. I think it's really easy for people to react to things being done for other people (who may have it better or worse off than you) with a sense of aban…

Awesome thank you! I'm up near the twin cities; the saint paul board game meetup goes to a lot of breweries and I prefer that vibe too. I like the game aspect but I think the socia…

I've been looking at moving to Austin and love board games. Unfortunately with everything canceled I can't currently use Meetup to check out the scene. Would you mind talking a lit…

Thanks! I'm really excited; everyone I've talked to that has been there hypes it up a lot. I will definitely not be thinking about work haha.

I find that I reach that half-life at a company too. After I sweep up the things that are in my control I start noticing all the other problems that are hard for me to affect and t…

Part of me wonders if I need to rewire how I think about this. Like I realize that there are things outside of my control but deep down I don't accept it, or something like that. M…

I have definitely internalized the idea that it's all just tradeoffs. I think I value delivering quality software and it's hard to feel like I'm doing that when I see so many produ…

I have definitely been thinking about this a lot, however, it's difficult to know what to do when this is the only long term job I've ever had, and the first time I've really had a…

Thank you. I wasn't trying to make it sound like I am applying my experiences to the entire industry, I'm just trying to reason about what issues are about me, what issues are abou…

I've been working for the same place for about 2.5 years and also have another ~year at an internship in another place. I enjoy the problem solving aspect of working on software, b…

How are they supposed to know you use one?

Yeah, but the risk from contact lenses comes over time as it's a risk every time you put your lenses in where with laser correction the risk pretty much only exists while you are h…

I had dry eyes (although I never noticed it) going into the procedure, and while I'm healing I put artificial tears in at night and a couple times during the day. It's well worth i…

Getting LASEK was one of the better decisions I've made in life. The risk of infection is extremely low for the procedure but you need to be extra careful while you're healing. It …

See the beauty of using program + cloud-provider is that all the cloud provider sees is an encrypted file. If one were to gain access to my Google Drive they would still have to cr…

Personally, they both make sense to me. I've always seen a slider option but I'm sure it's more work to implement. State could be an easy way to search on a bigger scope. I feel li…

Thank you for this! I coming up on graduation and am looking for my first job. Perhaps I am a narrow use case, but I would like to see a distance slider for the filter; I am lookin…
