I'm curious to those who disagree with the parent why, or what exactly they find is inaccurate about their statements.

"A permanent solution to a temporary problem" is a government's most practiced response.

So is it true that Leftists want to abolish the family, or do users here simply think I'm exaggerating?

I was actually very ignorant to the not very new ideas that Leftists hold about "abolishing the family", even as far back as Marx (maybe even further). Very disturbing

So you have no emotional attachment at all to your dog? What benefit then do you get from your dog?

> I would have no moral issues killing him for food, though I probably wouldn't much like it.

You wouldn't much like the taste, or the act of it?

The guidance staffeng.com provides is very useful, but is there something similar for one level below? I am nearly a senior engineer by title at my company (one level below it) - where can I look for guidance on getting to senior?

Why would you live mostly off of soy beans? That sounds depressing indeed. As a vegan I have an even more varied diet than before. I eat all kinds of fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, nuts and seeds. And I eat 0% soy. I also hate tofu/soy/etc.

Do you have anyone who you can work with? When I first started as a SWE I pair programmed every week with a senior engineer on fixing bugs in the application. It was one of the most fun and deep learning experiences I have had.

Besides that, when I come across a technical article - or even comments here on HN - I print it out to take it offline to read later, highlight, mark up. Then months later I circle back to it and usually find that I'm a lot more familiar and knowledgeable about it than the first time - a kind of long term spaced repetition.

Reading other people's code is also really good. Do you have other engineers in your organization that you can read code from? If you don't, try to find open source projects in your field. Again, I like to print things out. It is the best way I digest something. So yes, I print out code to go over later when I'm having dinner with wine.

Sounds very fun and full of interesting challenges. It's not directly applicable because they didn't use underground dwellings, but you might appreciate the book "One Straw Revolution" for the spirit of community and simplicity of growing food. Maybe some people on permies.com would be interested or have advice.

I have a lot of domains registered on Gandi.net I don't have a lot of experience with other registrars, but they were recommended to me many years ago as an "ethical" choice

I'm seeing the same happening for covid - governments and police using it as an opportunity to gain more control and power without real justification, only the excuse of "for health safety".

Well even in that regard I'd say Rust still wins.

You completely missed exactly my point. You're arguing in terms of programming, which I explicitly state:

> Not in programming terms, but in social terms.

Rust is already greater than Haskell. Not in programming terms, but in social terms. Rust won't die, or at least won't die the same death as Haskell. Rust, compared to Haskell, has already won.

No, I'm not trolling, and I do NOT believe the earth is flat. Everything about this "pandemic" seems artificial. It's been driven by media creating fear and hysteria, compromised scientists driven by control and fame, and politicians driven by further power. If you're curious for more perspective on understanding the false narrative, check out coronacircus.com or r/LockdownSkepticism — even if you think I'm crazy, maybe you'll have better insight into how I am crazy.

I've heard it's good for huge datasets that you want to shard, that mongo makes it easy to shard. The use case was per second location updates stored for at least 30 days

Yes, it's an artificial event, is what I believe

Since you bought them during a time of transition, I'd say that's not so bad. If you bought them new now I think it'd be more of a problem. And I am not a vegan that thinks you should just throw them away all of sudden - it's difficult to explain to people since they might see your leather boots and think you're a hypocrite, but better to keep them and wear them since you have them.

I agree about the life saving medicine aspect - my wife was dying in the hospital and accepted medicine that we knew contained lactose (we're vegan). But I don't see leather boots as life saving — are you buying them second hand?

It's disturbingly annoying, I agree

Oh cool, that's really neat! Thank you for sharing

Ah I see! Thank you

Sorry, can you explain? As someone who's reinvesting time to learn C lately, I'm very curious

Did she /believe/ she was black, or she was pretending and knew she wasn't?

I believe it's a manufactured event. The unprecedented actions taken were not warranted for the situation. Many tests false positive due to covid being related to other common viruses. A few people have become even wealthier while many have become even poorer.

This makes me sick. I don't want to live in a world where we need to "smize" (barf)

Well it's helpful not to look too deeply into it, but this is for a permanently remote position.

Thanks for all the great detail, it's really useful! I appreciate the time you took to share and I feel inspired and more prepared to try some new things out!

Thanks for the detail and for the super helpful actionable advice! I'll give that a try. How would you go about asking the team why they keep their video off? Should I ask during standup, in Slack?
