Touch typing (I have no idea if this is required in middle/high school these days).

From a performance perspective, most ORMs are trash if used naively.

Agreed. There is a reason Ford is exiting the sedan market in the US.

Same with the 400/20 in Manhattan. Mind you, I’m probably a sports whale (cable bill is > $200), but I don’t have any service complaints. Also, my “Spectrum plan” is cheaper the my old “TWC plan”. Honestly, if Charter sold the rest of the state and kept NYC I would be okay with that.

Perspective.

It is my opinion that one's time is better spent preventing the collapse of civilization than preparing for it.

This is real? Terrifying.

217 and 218 weren't easy (circa 20 years ago).

Oh man, she must be so bummed about that. The struggle is real.

Farhad Manjoo is a well-respected and seasoned technology journalist.

Reminds me of the JavaScript ecosystem.

"Rigged". You keep using that word... In which primaries (enumerate the states, please) did Clinton win fewer votes (than Sanders or O'Malley) yet receive the majority of delegates?
