#224Hackernews is simultaneously the most cantankerous and, imho, highest quality response on average public forum on the net. I absolutely love it here and sincerely appreciate this place. I feel like I’ve grown up on this site in so many ways. I am continually humbled by not just the consistent quality of content but also the comments. It’s a testament to the moderators that this site has maintained this level of quali…
HN is quite enjoyable to read, the only exception I observed is any topic political or someway a topic is diverted into that trench.
Don't worry I take care of that

#225I’m from another culture and this is a FIRST thanksgiving for me :) This place has been not only enjoyable and absolutely blowing away for me because of all the great people who participated in key events for our industry and provided first hand perspective on something I only remotely heard of before. But the warm inclusive accepting and encouraging atmosphere here is totally something else on the internets nowadays…
Do you mind sharing the name of the book?
It’s Keith Johnston Improv. It really helped me to become friends with my subconscious, imagination, destroy some assumptions about myself, reframe my view of children, of course laid a stone into my decision to have a child (like this year as opposed to “eventually” or some day as I started interacting with children after reading the book), showed me a cool hobby and a new way to express myself as an event organizer. I have like 240 highlights and notes in it, more than in any other book by far, it was really a book written just for me at that point in life, you know? It also has a bit of a twist towards the end. Highly recommend! I’m 33 if this provides some context I dunno :)

I'll also be thankful for the book's name
Replied to the first post with details, Keith Johnston Improv

Gosh, this was beautiful to read as an incidentally American person. There's something truly healing in giving thanks, in calling attention to the countless small acts of kindness without which we wouldn't be where we are today. The holiday itself is so freighted with the weight of our history, but the premise seems good. It actually seems to me more humanist, less materialistic and less secular, than any other holid…
For sure, gratitude is healing both ways, holidays like this must really have a wide positive effect on communities and wellbeing of people. We need more of those :)

#230Happy thanksgiving, Hackers! https://www.dinneratthezoo.com/spatchcock-turkey/
I've butterflied turkeys for years and the results have always been great. Evenly cooked, juicy meat. Crispy skin. Less time. (You can also cook the bird atop a layer of stuffing.)
It is a great way to cook chicken and turkey.
