Herd mentality, anti-intellectual culture, poor reading skills, and ADHD are widespread issues. Those mothers sound lame, and ultimately the joke's on them. Reading is awesome, and making fun of someone for it just shows what basic bit

You probably don't care about the ingredients or engineering of asphalt, only if the road does its job well or is filled with potholes. Outside of the software industry, nobody gives a shit about code or databases.

You're conflating no-till with spraying chemicals. They're not inherently tied. No-till is a soil management technique, not crop management. It doesn't require any chemicals, and the goal is to increase soil life, not kill ev

I started out baking measuring by volume, and it's not like it doesn't work. You can make amazing things basically measuring by handful, pinch, and feel. I think technique and ratio are more important than careful measurements. Ev

It doesn't matter for small items like salt or baking soda, but you can get pretty different results scooping flour depending on how compressed the flour storage is, and how much the scooping packs down that flour. There's a reaso

One size doesn't fit all. By your logic, homemade sourdough isn't bread, you should have packaged Wonder bread. Keep a box of Krusteaz in the pantry for the kid sleepovers, prepare the night before for an adult brunch.

I gave an example right there in my previous comment (log filtering). To expand: our eyes and brains are good at pattern matching. Looking at git log --pretty=oneline with a structure lets you discard any commits irrelevant to what you&#x27

Yeah, this right here. It's a cute and pithy blog post, but it's one-dimensional. Backlogs may have plenty of dead-ends, but there's just as likely the same amount of legit work that would be useful. For every company with a

Making an opinionated absolute statement about something that's widely used and argued about isn't even logical. If nobody got any benefit, it wouldn't be a thing. The CC standard may not be for everyone, but having some conv

Well, the current last.fm "play your recommendations" is linked to spotify, so maybe you're right? Last.fm has gone through phases of no streaming, streaming, and partner streaming, and TBH I haven't used last.fm as a st

I don't really go for any of the spotify recommendations or algorithmic playlists, but I have great success with the weekly Release Radar playlist. AFAIK, the playlist is only generated from artists that you've followed. It will p

Is that even a problem? If someone consumes a lot of algorithmic recommendations and you don't, wouldn't that drift you farther apart in the last.fm relationship?

Both can be true. We're all susceptible to whatever culture we're indoctrinated to. Progressive narratives are still young though, while established religions have a long history, momentum, and large user base to perpetuate their

Say what? It's hard to hear you from way up there on your high horse, but it sounded like you said you were diagnosed with plebeian taste freeze? Aah that's too bad. My condolences.

I dunno, "government bad" seems like a pretty reasonable default. Governments typically have a high amount of corruption and are generally unhealthy organizations. It doesn't make sense to delegate more responsibility to an e

Cycling is special IMHO. It can be strenuous exercise like running, or a casual cruise that's even easier than walking. The speed is highly adjustable and easy to get in the sweet spot for that moment. It's not too slow to get bor

Amazing slow site. If it does manage to find a valid domain, it doesn't show any contact info, nor registration form. Do I need to create an account and log in to see those?

All good. It works now, and it looks great! I'd be interested in the plugin and write up. How can I get notified of updates?
