This. First of all, I don’t think there is a “critical” period for learning programming like there is for languages, or motor skills (try learning to skateboard as an adult). My school curriculum, a foreign language and, yes, skateboarding have all been a lot more challenging than programming. I’d say that learning network administration is probably a lot harder too b/c stuff like that isn’t as logical as a programming language.

My dad had MS, they knew that MS was caused by demyelination years ago. Is this study important because they found the gene (or a gene?) that corresponds to that?

MS is not inherited, but it looks like they’ve already identified genes as well that increase risk, and risk increases if a family member has it.

This isn’t 2010. There are now female and middle aged redditors as well

You're the one who needs some writing advice.

I’ve been asking myself since Trump’s Twitter ban - is it a violation of free speech if the banner is a private corp? To me the obvious answer is no, but I could see how a private Corp could be pressured by the state.

I don’t have the details but I’m pretty sure passage of time is due to a tendency for entropy to increase, and that if I go back in time a second by, say, walking backwards, it is no more a violation of the cons of energy as if I walk forward.

I recently had blood work done bc I thought I might be low T and mine was actually over the high band. I am a pretty serious hobby jogger. I run every day and I try and follow something close to what a serious HS runner would do. Is that why, or enough to explain it? Idk, but I do know if I didn’t exercise to compensate for screen-life, everything would be fucked

Well we were all thinking it

I have a super snotty nose and live in a cold place so I don’t wear it outside. I walk away or cover mouth when someone gets close. But I’ve read articles that give numbers ie. x% chance of getting it if you are within y feet for z minutes in an enclosed room, so I think me walking outside without a mask is not an issue, despite the dirty looks from lots of people.

And (thanks to climate change) my flat also get hot enough to kill me

Is that you TechLead?

Because A.) Approx 1 20yo in a million will have life threatening complications. Plus B.) there are a lot more of them than their (are people who have non-negligible chance of dying + people around those with non-negligible chance of dying).

Common sense suggests correlation

Pycharm autocomplete is very good - I don’t know if that is what you mean by autocomplete support

Requests is one of the modules that had more change on 2-3, but being basically the most popular language (for good reason), it’s pretty easy to find documentation for either version. I imagine a lot more than for Phoenix/elixir whatever that is.

I think you’re being difficult for the sake of being difficult. I am not a leet programmer and that is why I use python- it does everything for you very well and no more. If you want more “cruft” pip install cruft

I wonder how many thousands of us started doing something like this https://github.com/adnmcq/music_visualizer

Sounds like you’ve gone to the argument of “this can affect fit and healthy people in other ways that we may not even know.”

It is clear that the death toll is overwhelmingly skewed toward the elderly. Many of whom died in the first wave as corona prob got into many nursing homes before we knew better. We are now very careful w nursing homes/ elderly, we might see cases go up but as long as you protect them the deaths/ hospitalizations shouldn’t show similar levels to spring 2020. I don’t think you can deny this, so pro-lockdown people are now mainly using this “it can affect young people” argument to avoid cognitive dissonance - I have yet to see proof. I only have seen an article that says there is lung damage after infection which diminishes over the course of weeks. This is what you would expect with any kind of damage but the article had a ridiculous title like “coronavirus may lead to long lasting damage.” Lastly, I see a lot of ambulances these days - it serves as a reminder to check myself. But we’re all probably pretty analytical here and you can’t justify a strict lockdown from a utilitarian standpoint.

Uh my Zillowing suggests that you’re wrong. At least in WI - and what’s more middle American than WI. I’m talking even bumfuck, wi, where a hunting lodge with no plumbing and a woodfire oven for heating will set you back 100k. In Madison WI you are wrong nearly on an order of 10 (Comparing w 1990 prices).

You sir are a man of great principles. Life is much easier when you are not.

Overly personal question (and I’m not hiring) but why not the US?

Robinhood has a website tho

Is there some kind of requirement that this gets posted below every article about the stock market?

You can do what I did and lose 5% of your net worth on wallstreetbets

No, most people are just illogical.

The numbers show that this is <1% fatal and probably <0.1% but all it takes is one story of some 30 year old dying on the news and everybody loses their minds.

Granted, I was very scared myself before we had numbers, but I don’t know how many people are willing to actually take a look at them now that this has become sort of political. It’s like how a school shooting will get a lot of coverage, but nobody talks about how way more people are shooting themselves in the head. Emotions over facts.

Do you not have tastebuds?

This, unfortunately

Is that a serious question?

How can you be both a strong believer in self reliance and also want to spend more of your time working for someone else?
