I suggest looking into the FIRE movement. That community has many of the same questions about what to do after reaching Financial Independence, and a lot of people have written a lot of words about their struggles.

To be fair, it's also early Monday morning, when you were suspended over the weekend. Lifting the suspension could just as easily have happened because they now have enough people to actually do a human review.

It depends on the use case, and a lot of people use it wrong. Discord is a good choice for a community hangout, to use for ephemeral discussions. It is a poor choice for a support forum, because past responses are not searchable by the open

Yea, I'm curious what they even mean by 'performance' in this context. It would obviously impact whole-system performance, since this setting would intentionally limit what can run on each core leading to some idle cycles. Th

Yes, but only after they pirated it, admitted to doing so in a front page Hacker News article, and then suggested other people do so too. Do you think tech startups really want an investor who advises people to pirate software?

Yep, the reality is that it was more likely a defensive play against Microsoft. At the time (mid-2005) it seemed most likely that Windows Mobile would eventually take over, and Android's strategy was taken from the Windows Desktop play

That kind of thing happens to me all the time. I'm very often unable to think of or explain things in the moment. Sometimes it helps to write a doc afterwards to get my thoughts in order and decide if it's worth sharing.
