Hah! I’m sitting here waiting for eye surgery and figured it was slow hospital wifi. You’re right, though. Other sites are quick! If someone screws up and kills me, HN will be the last thing I remember. ;-)

FWIW the usual outcome of messing up eye surgery is blindness, not death. Good luck! :)

Depends on how bad the surgeon and anaesthetist messes up, really.

You want recs for bad ones?

Well even if one belives there is such a thing as a good litrpg, anyone who likes the genre is going to have read those already. So yeah any litrpg connoisseur is going to be looking for recommended bad ones.

Have this then:

Reject Humanity, Return to Monke

what was the gist of it?

It was a screenshotted post on r/LinkedInLunatics about how unqualified 99% of the candidates at Reddit are, and how it should be illegal to apply for a job if you don't meet 100% of the qualifications. There was also a subplot to the rant that blamed the dearth of qualified candidates on 'Tik Tok Thots' (paraphrasing because I don't remember the exact demeaning term the author used to objectify female tiktok users)

Oh hah that's funny, I applied there a couple weeks haven't heard anything of course. Figured it would be something like that lol

I know we all don't like social media but it does provide some gems haha

Is reddit on-prem or in the cloud? If in the cloud, AWS/GCE have tons of redundancy in power, internet connectivity, etc.

Except AWS is experiencing issues now. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35157388
