A loom that learned to weave itself.
My “primitive motivations” are on full display, not covered at all. The “primitive motivation” is to show your kid how to not let people walk all over you.
You absolutely should not be a third wheel for the adulterous ex and her cheating-partner guy.
I never said anything about teaching lessons to the ex. You brought that idea in from nowhere.
100%. At best it’s extremely disrespectful. At worst it’s a petty power play. And you don’t want to teach your child to allow themselves to be treated that way.
Best answer yet IMO. The cohesive experience is essential to the branding, and low threshold for entry.
Imagine if there were two twitters, and you only sign up for one but you can read and comment on posts for both.
Now imagine if anybody can install their own Twitter, and anybody else can sign up on either one, and they can all talk to each other like that.
Star power. High production values. Less complex (appears to be more centralized, immediately easy to conceptualize as “twitter but not right wing”)
No. I actually think it sets a bad example for the kid. Your wife is allowed to leave you and be with somebody else. But she’s wretchedly petty to transform you into a third wheel in front of your child. Your kid should see that you’re above that. Just like your kid needs to see that you can still get along with the mother.
I forgive them. English is a complex beast.
It sure do.

I’ve been doing it wrong!
I go back and forth between reading novels and difficult non-fiction books. Also, I read in the morning with coffee and in the evening with non-caffeinated tea.
When I fall out of my reading habit, I restart it by reading a page-turner. Stephen King, Neal Stephenson, whoever.
When reading a difficult book (philosophy) I treat it like a serious undertaking, something I might not be ready for. I have a dictionary nearby. I’m here to learn, to struggle. And it’s like a sport. But an extremely edifying and satisfying sport. It’s like climbing a mountain. Some philosophy books require reading like three other philosophy books first. These are geniuses talking to each other, and I just get to watch.
And when I’m done with a difficult book, I follow it up with a page-turner. Alastair Reynolds, some comedy novel, or whatever.
I never read a book “just because it’s a classic.” That’s no fun. There has to be something about the book that makes me want to read it.
And I try not to read multiple books at the same time. I’m currently breaking that rule.
Edit:
Also, find your niche. I never feel guilty about not reading. I just love all the experiences and ideas I get from books. You do it for the love of it. So find the kind of book you love. History (of Europe, of technology, of whatever), spy novels, whatever!

This is how my work has been and it allowed me to touch every part of the repo while still a junior dev and gain lots of experience. So I also like that. But lately I’m trying to specialize more and go deep into things, and I like the idea of being an expert on something. So I appreciate the trade-offs.
all bets are off with offshore contractors. Some want to learn, some simply don’t care and will do the bare minimum.
As a guy who was replaced by offshore contractors, and who hasn’t had a single interview in 7 months while offshore contractors are (probably) still getting lots of work… I find this observation both heartening and disheartening.
Everybody in my team gets to own something.
Oh I like this.
That works when the docs are good and clear. Otherwise, we’ll have to revert to communicating with each other for brief periods while the chat-bots train themselves on the new data.
Yeah they’re trash anyway. That subreddit sucks. I’ve seen too many astroturf ads get promoted to like 20k upvotes. Good riddance, I say.
It always sounded more like classic Drum n Bass to me.
Coming out just a little later was Ed Rush and Optical’s album “Wormhole,” which is just as likely to be an influence.

I thought that was a joke. But regular news sites are running the story. So maybe it’s real?
