> And they succeed and are fine.

They also literally had a camera and crew on standby while also blocking off streets (off screen).

> deeply shameful

Your feelings are what they are, but this is the least shameful post I would ever see on LinkedIn. It's someone actually looking for work! and not just posting some super cringe low-IQ engagement-farm copypasta.

Finding work is exactly what LinkedIn ought to be for

draw.io mostly, export as PNG and include the actual diagram XML within the PNG so it can be opened and edited.

very rarely use mermaid, but good for some simple README/markdown style diagrams.

I'm male and I get visual auras with migraines (not often, only once or twice a year). It's like a small area of old TV static or (as I call them) "dead pixels" in my vision. It's usually centered right in the middle of my vision, so reading becomes impossible but I could do something else.

It usually spreads a little bit before dissipating. They can happen with or before the actual migraine pain.

what's moyo?

"define Tao"

> (in Chinese philosophy) the absolute principle underlying the universe, combining within itself the principles of yin and yang and signifying the way, or code of behavior, that is in harmony with the natural order. The interpretation of Tao in the Tao-te-Ching developed into the philosophical religion of Taoism.

I'd say their interpretation (while reductive) is in the spirit of the Tao.

That said, I'm no expert and only have a passing familiarity with the Tao through pop-culture.

haha just like the Twilight Episode of the guy who finally gets quiet to read...after a nuclear war that also breaks his reading glasses.

We've gone from "unprecendented times" to "constitutional crisis" to now.

The canaries are wheezing and our country is in the midst of a full-on coup.

...but I gotta put together this microservices design because that matters I guess.

We all know humanity won't last another 100 years and it seems like our government (as a representational, constitutional, democratic-republic) probably won't last another 100 days.

They're literally accelerationists: They're shooting the gov in the face, so they can enact more emergency powers, and then it's one step to pure, raw fascism.

> I'm asking for an answer without political rhetoric

You need to start caring about politics real fast if you care at all.

Source? and what's the median?

Also, that was during WW2 which would likely skew those #s (though I would actually expect to much older, as in not most-fit-military age)

a military coup is a type of coup, and a common one, but not the only

Nope. Here's mine:

Predictions for 2025

- Personal Projects

Will create a custom D&D campaign management tool combining their software expertise with their tabletop gaming passion

- Technologies

Will transition away from Java/TypeScript and dive deep into Rust or Go for systems programming

- Knowledge Growth

Will become more involved in tech ethics discussions, particularly around AI regulation and worker rights

- Hacker News

Will start contributing more technical deep-dives about gaming technology and distributed systems

That Roast was EXTRA toasty. Love it. The second one was WAY off base though. I've only used MacOS. The other two were super appropriate though.

Roast Claims to be a full-stack developer but probably spends more time organizing their Magic: The Gathering cards than organizing their code repositories

Complains about Linux audio issues for 16 years straight but still hasn't switched to Mac - that's some commitment to suffering

Says they can do both frontend and backend but their true specialty is writing sarcastic comments about tech trends

> For example, if I'm feeling stressed/anxious, I'll scroll/browse/distract myself to avoid the negative feelings.

Yes, that's doom scrolling

> lately I have gotten drawn into wasting time on these various stupid "shorts" or "reels" or whatever, mostly on FB.

Yeah, that's doom scrolling

Mostly because of smearing and the direction of writing: left-hand writers "push" the pen more, while right-hand writers are "pulling" the pen more (not totally and not 100%)

> I got that for the goofiest of reasons: so I could feel like Indiana Jones when I was taking notes for my Diablo game.

Nah, that's the coolest of reasons \m/

I'm curious what word was missing from this

> We have an extremely ??? background (3x Founder/CTO + A bunch of other things).

Learned this at a young age with the Highlights magazines at the dentist.

You're equating white with American.

> BMI is based primarily on data collected from previous generations of non-Hispanic white populations.

Take a cursory look into BMI. It's completely BS. Goes right into the same bin as the food pyramid and the taste-zones of the tongue.

She spends a long time at the beginning of the talk going over all kinds of caveats and disclaimers.

It's honestly annoying how much effort people have to put into saying "this won't work for everyone in every situation, all the time" and STILL someone chimes in "UMMMACTUALLY!" who didn't even watch the talk

> and other libertarian nonsense

Hacker News subtitle

I too like to hold my safety gear to the standard of whether it grants invulnerability. That's a productive way to approach nuance.

Instagram has already completely become a clone of TikTok

> doesn't that make this a bill of attainder, and thus de facto unconstitutional?

That was already covered by a lower court IIRC

I think a good part of this comes from how we often mention time: "It's half past two" is interpreted to mean: "it's at least half past two"

If we round seconds, why not microseconds/etc?

Ticking clocks let us know what time it is "at least" and uses the minutes :00 as the "barrier" Shifting that to :30 only causes more confusion IMO

This was fun. Thanks

Mind dropping the code? I’m not familiar with this
