Code was never the hard part… once you made it to some level of advanced programmer. Then clarity, maintainability, etc. became the next tier of Maslow's Hierarchy of Coding.

Yeah, I'll never understand the disconnect between Wall Street and the mudslide of diarrhetic bad news that has been rolling in constantly.

"And then you have the current president's habit of just lying about everything…" And I suspect, sometime in the future, we're going to discover that the numbers were even worse than we thought they were—were covered up.

An ad in a 1972 Race Program touts a brand new Toyota for $1200 (for a sedan, not including tax, freight and handling, etc.). I ran an inflation calculator and… where are the $10K cars for sale today? (To be sure, I know there are safety st

"You have areas where leaving the cul-de-sac zone takes 15-20 minutes on foot…" Holy shit, you have to walk a mile from a cul-de-sac just to get to a street with an intersection? Who the hell designed these streets? (I guess Big

If that's the natural outcome then the future you're describing is inevitable. Oh well, maybe the last one to leave the internet can turn the lights off.

I agree with that: a safe exposure to drugs (in moderation) is mind expanding.

"I think that deep down many people often believe that they could have a say in policy if only they tried hard enough…" Really? I don't know anyone that thinks that. Everyone I know think, "I'm not a billionaire, so

What's with the USB stick? Any files he had should just be checked into a GIT repo or copied to an Apple server. So 90's…

I get what you're saying, but this seems like the wrong vehicle. I mean these are two corporations engaged in a huge and expensive legal battle—we're not talking about a personal he-said/she-said spat on X.

Sure, give us just one side of the story… It's always suspect when one side tries to argue their case in the court of public opinion. Frankly, it's a big red flag for me and immediately casts suspicion on said party. I mean, do yo
