I'm not a developer but I totally relate to this. Most of my creative pursuits are weird, niche, sometimes avant-garde. If I didn't make my artifacts, nobody else would, and it is so intrinsically rewarding to see my visions insta

I'm Christian, so I'm unfortunately also familiar with the feeling of horror and shame when someone does something awful in the name of God. Bad feeling when someone from a group you belong to does harm and claims that you endorse

Am woman; I simply opt out of all that rigmarole (such a good word!) and I'm so glad I work in an industry where it doesn't matter. I don't even wear a bra because I can't be bothered with an extra garment for the sole p

My guess is that the people randomly beating up Asians aren't doing a whole lotta research beforehand? Opportunistic, not strategized. I could be wrong though! Anybody else have actual intel on this? I'm just going off the chatter

It's more like, why would I want to use Linux? There's no reason for me to be interested in the first place. I get that other people want to, but this desire does not exist within me. I thought it was sort of bizarre that the qu
