I think a more fair interpretation is the managers don't fully realize just how busy you are and are following the path of least resistance. When you're more clear in your communication, it helps them understand. I'm not say

your statement > They [firstborn children] literally have zero siblings. strongly implies children with siblings are not firstborn children. As I said elsewhere, your thought process is all over the place. If you meant that firstborn ch

your last statement is only true if you believe in a binary world. In truth, a child can grab a can of soda out of the fridge without it being a safety concern.

I moved to i3 as a result of that transition, I think I'll continue remembering.

a poor person will purchase a rundown $2k escalade before they purchase a $20k+ new civic. A poor person won't be purchasing a newer vehicle but that has no bearing on the make and model they end up driving.

your thought process is all over the place. Gen-x was more independent because they were allowed to be, the family size doesn't have a lot of bearing on that, but more than that it's a non-sequitur that somehow gen-x is a counter-

is your claim that the firstborn child stops being the firstborn child when another child is born? That appears to be what you're claiming.

and I think your language skills are lacking, words can have multiple meanings with subtleties. I doubt you would get most of the general population to agree that a competitor knocking someone out of the running or forcing them to fundamen

vehicles can be repaired and sold and many people make good money doing exactly that.

uninsured/underinsured motorists is a business risk for insurance companies, one they mitigated by convincing our government to make it required but they did so at the expense of placing an undue burden on the poor. My stance here is t

> Just having your children learning to swim costs 1000 euro! I can't speak for anything outside the US, but here in the states we have lakes and rivers that do just fine for teaching kids to swim.

I grew up poor and rode horses, as others have said it's a matter of where you live. If you live in the countryside it's not a big deal, if you live in the middle of a city or suburban area it becomes more expensive.

why would you characterize that as pop psychology?

> by pure math the most common type of child is the first born. I understand the sentiment you're trying to convey but I have to point out that's only true if the average family size is less than 2. The second it hits a full 3

increasing insurance increases the harm to the poor. At this point it shouldn't be required by law or it should be subsidized for those for whom it represents an undue burden.

disruption isn't a single thing, it can absolutely come from a more nimble competitor.

Not only that, but the phrase of "program families" is poor imo. The phrase he's looking for is "a class of programs", similar to the ideas that in diff EQ you don't derive a formula, you derive a class of for

while I agree with the overall premise of your comment, that's not what the other poster said _at all_.

lmao, that was my exact thought when I read that comment. I still have nightmares about that. I ended up moving to i3 as a result of that transition and never looked back, although KDE is my "backup desktop".

If you want consistency of configuration over years go with FVWM. I'm kidding (and kinda not), it's a valid complaint.

I have to be honest, anytime I see a major version update I start to have nightmares of the KDE3/4 update. With that negativity aside, I use i3 nowadays but KDE is still always my other desktop. I've been using it since the KDE1

What started all of this is the observation that they've been successful over the last 3 console generations by not trying to compete directly with Sony and MS but instead to try and innovate and make great games people want to play (g

their strategy included the Wii U, to deny that is to deny reality. I also wouldn't call the Wii U a failure. Not being as successful as previous consoles from Nintendo is not the same thing as being a failure. Nintendo profited from

we need a different word. EV is more efficient than ICE and hybrids, that seems clear. but the context is day to day driving, not "Total Carbon Footprint" (TCF?).

RMS is neurodivergent and a certain segment of people went after him purposefully with a lot of misinformation. If anything, I'd say he's a perfect example of what it looks like when cancel culture makes its way into technical cir

I agree with this sentiment, but I'll note it happens on forums/reddit/HN as well. I'm not sure what the answer is, but I've lost count of how many times I've seen people say things that are obviously not great

this is all true and it's fun to deconstruct these things. But it's also fun to just roll with it :)
