Yeah, nobody is talking about this but I think you're right on the money.

Not even Rust necessarily. I mean, this could have been avoided with any of the new age languages with a focus on safety.

Yeah, it basically boils down to the above. He was just the quintessential suit. Regardless, I think his antics were/are hilarious.

I don't know that this is an age thing so much as an income thing. It's anecdotal, but I'm 21, we weren't well to do growing up, and so the only way to get reliable TV for free was through the antenna.

Yeah, it's neat. It's sort of like Reddit + Twitter.

Yup, another good example of this is Hyper vs. Terminus. Both Electron apps, but Terminus is way more performant and less memory hungry. I've taken that (along with Slack vs. pretty much every other Electron app) to mean that yes you&#

Yeah, thanks to OP for that. I was using Hyper before and the performance was abysmal. Terminus has the same great rendering and is much more performant. 100 MB one terminal with some work is still not amazing, but it sure as hell beats 300

There likely are for other under represented minorities. That is not unprecedented, people not in the majority will want to share experiences and be around people with shared experiences. I think the thing you're missing here though is

I don't necessarily care about the gender politics angle, I think it's just the tale of Bob learning to be a single parent. My problem is with the basics, the basic plot wasn't very well though out. I think Bird really shot h

This is my conclusion as well. I grew up in a very religious household and so all of my sleep paralysis episodes revolved around some sort of demon entering my space and attempting to do something to me. Sleep paralysis is connected with lu

I think MS did it right with 8.1, just hide tablet UI on a desktop. On a separate note, how do you feel about the regressions in Tablet Mode UI/UX in Windows 10? Seems like MS threw out even the stuff that worked.

If you have the time, I would highly recommend watching the PBS documentary about all this: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/facebook-dilemma/ Really helps to put it all into context.
