They stated " If you want to meet people don't use Tinder, that used to work well in the past, it very rarely works now.", which if I understand them correctly means that it's hard to meet people without it. Perhaps you

I'm not familiar with Bumble (I've never used Tinder either). My point is if you are controlling access to "the market" then a user being excluded could be a real disadvantage, and should be treated with care.

In my experience, far too much responsibility is placed on the person generating the code nowadays. It's just got worse and worse as infrastructure has become more "software defined". Writing the code and interfacing with al

Yes, I think that ritual is something like collaborative art. People feel good when they play a part in something beautiful. And as I think you alluded to, seeing something greater than yourself can be a very inspirational thing.

I'm not sure it's about death. Organised religion dulls that fear, but I think that ritual existed long before any promise of a savior from death existed. I think it's main purpose is to syncronise large groups of animals t

I'm still using an overclocked i5-2500K circa 2011 in my desktop. It does everything fast enough for me (even modern games). I haven't felt the need to upgrade.

Have you tried 'Fiasco'? I've reread that a couple of times.

Thank you, I will likely try this.

That's where I was before the update. I loved that phone :-( Now about 7hrs bat life and a half working device. > AOSP updates via Pixel Experience ROM I'd be interested to know what this is! Is it something I can use? Edit:

I've got an old gen1 Pixel xl 128g, which was working well. I'd been putting off the os upgrade nag messages for a long time, but in a moment of weakness I capitulated. Now the phone is basically a shadow of it's former sel

I think one thing it can do is allow you to view things with fewer of the biases, assumptions and other mental stuff you've accumulated over the years. Having a fresh (childlike?) view of things can give you a newfound appreciation fo

I love skiing, and I also love contemplating the engineering that's dragging my fat ass to the top.

Yeah, I suppose the lego "tree" (spruce?) is a great example of a very specialised piece that's fondly remembered.
