So is it disrespectful to want to gift someone a meal? I don’t understand why it has to be so black and white. Also the consent thing really sounds weird. Do you honestly go around making value judgements about when people did or did not se

It might not be a popular opinion but all the comments about cultural differences, or needing to be careful with communication seem wrong to me. Someone offering you a gift to pay shouldn’t come off as rude or a power play of wealth. It sho

No. If the only way you can manage is via micromanagement then you shouldn’t be a manager, end of story, period. The bar is far too low for managers already. The technical, communication and delivery bars are clear for developers at differe

I want to point out two additional observations. 1. There are a decent amount of software engineers or programmers whom literally aged at the perfect time to organically learn these tools that later became fundamental. If you even touched a

Accountability via trainer is a good option. Eventually the habit will stick and then you can pocket the money if money is important to you. The low/no money option is to tether an activity that you like to one you dislike. If you like

Maybe this is a bit close-minded to say. Even with the evolution of Ruby on Rails and adding more rich feature sets, I wouldn’t recommend it as an out of the box Webapp BECAUSE upgrading to newer versions of RoR sucks. The more time I inves

I spotted at least three typos in your response so I stopped reading. Maybe spelling is hard for them or English isn’t their first language.

So there’s a few really good resources on what we would now call minimalistic training. Most people who go to the Gym do not need to squeeze out every ounce of progression. Unlike the fitness industry which is obsessed with small percentage

Most threads cover anecdotal experiences and the summary is that many different strategies work. I’m gonna go ahead and mention what I haven’t seen almost any thread say. Which is that any singular child’s early infant and toddler stages pa

Accountability is a core tenant of Christianity. In the end you are accountable for everything you say and do, or don’t do. There’s bound to be conformity in the way people grow or change under a given framework which is what Churches provi

People have left churches for a plethora of reasons, many of which stem from the church itself being corrupt. But moreover, as you mentioned people want a sense of community without and of the accountability that Church asks. You don’t want

What I’ve learned reading many of the comments on threads and most of the article is really just to keep your mouth shut. You can comfort people in loss without saying a word. Your consistent presence through the grieving is good enough. Th

But it is. It’s because people who ‘try’ their whole lives yo-yo diet or crash diet and that’s 1) unsustainable 2) extremely likely to result in more long term weight gain 3) very unhealthy for your body to constantly be fluctuating in wei

What doesn’t make sense about your statement is that CICO evangelists don’t claim that appetite or that satiation isn’t a problem. One of the best examples I know of is Greg Doucette. He specifically preaches CICO because for 95-99% of peop

Satiety is subjective however it is widely accepted that foods high in fat can be more satiating. Today the relevant case is Keto diets where replacing your carbohydrate intake with higher fat foods (steak, avocado, nuts) can help regulate

Exactly. In one of the parenting books I read it stated that we are inviting our child into our life, not the other way around. We already know what happens when parents make their children a priority over everything else. I still plan to l

Many people gave you advice and said loss of your personal life. Invite your kids into your life. I like video games so I offer to play them with my son. I like movies so I find ones we can watch together. I like martial arts so when he’s o

Ah I see you haven’t spent countless hours looking at the management console cost breakdown because management says “our cloud spending is too high”, to then read the highest cost is your “cost savings plan”.

There was a miss in the expectations from the beginning. “I was hired as junior and I’m expected to contribute from the off;” That’s language for being setup to fail. Anyone who hires a a junior engineer or even early mid level and expects

Ruby code based that I’ve worked on that were a mess had nothing to do with review or guidance and everything to do with delivering as quickly as possible. It’s inherently a part of Ruby, a feature one might say, that you can probably spin

Two that I highly recommend 1. Subversive Sabbath by A.J. Swoboda 2. Garden City by John Mark Comer * caveat they are both frameworked in Christian principles but the practical steps to get rest are still very good.

Finding something you love is only momentary. Even if you find something you “love” to do it will have moments where it gets rough, boring, frustrating or cumbersome. We need both work and rest, and typically burnout comes from pushing your

Remember that cloud providers get drives in bulk at lower cost than the consumer. Also I think they know this and still post it for the community benefit. What people store in the cloud is important and drive failure is their business becau

I’ve done this at my current company. They ask us to join sales calls or support engineer calls and read the filed ticket before hand. It is very useful to understand how a customer thinks and how they view features vs bugs. Sometimes you c
