Japan is a lot more conservative of a society compared to North America and Europe. I've known University-educated women in Japan suddenly halt their careers to entirely cook and clean for a household. I don't think that's a

I think the parent comment is saying that his paternal instinct is clashing with society and culture.

For what it’s worth, I do really enjoy the aesthetic of that sort of work in the same way that I enjoy a nice piece of pixel art with a limited colour palette.

I hope we can regulate this somehow!

Hmm, once you mentioned it, I'm not 100% sure why I wrote it. I certainly speak with starting sentences with "I mean", but I use it mostly as a filler?

I mean, some parts of the US do have lead in the water.

I'm not 100% sure what a good learning curve would be, but I could imagine since he likes video games, making some simple stuff would blend over well. I'm curious if anyone else here could suggest something similar to PyGame, sinc

Fixed/floating is an interesting tradeoff for many real-time strategy games too where changes in game state are a synchronized simulation. Fixed point math in software can give more reliable and cross-platform math operations, but with

I don't think that's universally true. Being attractive certainly can help make good impressions easier (and I've known insufferable people coast by on good looks too) but I don't think it's the be-all or end-all of

I love how the book has a strong first-person perspective, and you're often not seeing all the workings of the dystopian society, but the moments where you do get a bit revealed to you (eg: the US congress being attacked) are incredibl

I've grown up and lived in British Columbia, and I think I can understand the attitude given the cultural attitude compared to the US. When I look at Australia, a commonwealth nation that's similar in some ways, but with a much mo

I think service-based games have been the only ones to really mesh their production with an "agile" software development. Most traditional one-and-done games that "ship" usually have a more big-deadline schedule, even if

With the right tooling, I find it a lot more productive than the C++98 I learned in early university. A lot of memory management patterns are easier to write/maintain, and more fine-grained tuning for performance is still available to

More and more video games require an internet connection and server to be playable. They can't be archived or revisited in the same way that an old Nintendo ROM can be. When World of Warcraft rereleased their "classic" vers

I don't feel like I could create trust in democracy with something as complicated as a private key for a mostly non-technical nation such as Canada or France.

A big issue is that the longer you wait, there longer your body has permanent effects from puberty. Someone who is ultimately right in their convictions about themselves then has to wait longer through something irreversible. I think the pu

Not transitioning into a non-binary gender in my teens and instead in my mid-to-late-twenties where I am now. I internalized a lot of rhetoric from other people that I simply had to accept myself or feel comfortable with a narrative of bein

What do you find you self-censor the most on? Perhaps not going in-depth, but I'd be curious on what you notice you feel isn't a good fit for the site.

Are most people like this? I’ve always struggled with having myself fall asleep before 10:00pm even as a preteen. I once tried putting myself on a schedule for two months, but I’d just lie awake until later at night when I’d finally doze of

Interesting. I feel like most C++ programmers I meet have a high level of enthusiasm for Rust, as it has C++'s high/low level blend and the safety helps prevent more footguns.

What do you think of the Franco-Ottoman Alliance[1], when France and the Ottoman Empire were allies? This occurred when England was trying to "raid and invade" other parts of Europe. [2] It's almost as if an us-them dichotomy

That’s interesting to hear. Not trying to troll, but I’d love to hear about what you have found to be better about it.

Probably a general society awakening, my gut says to be honest with you. I think quality of life, progress, and stable economies/societies are ones that efficiently organize themselves into groups or orders.
