Yes, there’s this kind of hidden assumption that these men aren’t trying, that they haven’t done every obvious thing already.

Confidence won’t help if you aren’t meeting the other party’s attractiveness threshold.

Something like 50% of new couples are formed from meeting online.

Or they utilize underhanded guerilla marketing techniques to push propaganda all over the web that the app is more useful than it actually is.

Last I checked, Tinder has the largest userbase compared to the other apps.

I'm not sure if it's the cities I've been living in but bars seem to have relatively few women in them. Going to a bar in search of a partner almost seems not so different than swiping on Tinder.

The thing about these kinds of comments is that it's impossible to know why it worked for you, why you're specific situations worked out different. So many men try all your advice and still struggle greatly.

Those are the men who "stuck around". You're not going to see all the deadbeats who are having babies with multiple women in a maternity ward.

If you use pyenv, it shouldn't be that difficult.

There's an expression for that. Tough.

Can you provide an example?

What you're positing here is basically the "Broken Window" fallacy.

Haha, that's devious but ultimately futile against a targeted scraper.

Does Airflow support streaming the outputs to downstream tasks? I tried to do something like this with Prefect but with Prefect you have to wait for the upstream task to finish before a downstream task can begin working.

Does Scrapy's slow speed actually matter much? Your main bottleneck is always going to be network calls and rate limiting. I don't know how much optimization can help there.

I really wouldn't recommend building a web scraper from scratch. You'll soon have to think about caching/rate-limiting/retries. Personally, I use Scrapy and it works fine. For best practice, I wouldn't use the Pipel

On the wikipedia page for the Collatz conjecture, there is a statement of the Collatz conjecture "in reverse" by growing a graph where R(n) = {2n, (n-1)/3} for n ≡ 4 mod 6, and R(n) = 2n for n ≡ 0,1,2,3,5 mod 6. I wonder how

>I don't consider this to be a good defence; in fact, I'd argue that makes PHP itself insecure. Agree with you completely on that. PHP, is in fact, insecure by design.

Don't forget the prevalence of faxing as well.

Yes, and as the list of items to maintain grows, you must perform more and more context switches as bugs or other fixes crop up, spreading you more and more thin. Meanwhile the number of new requests does not slow down.

I wish I could be so lucky to be interrupted for work relevant things and not discussions about Adam Sandler movies or the neighbors dog when I’m clearly focused and typing into my IDE.

I think a solution would be to limit the number of matches one could have at a time. This forces the user to sacrifice something (the opportunity cost of matching with someone else) to remain in contact with their match.

by guskel 5y ago
If thousands of matches are not a good thing, why keep swiping? They could choose instead to talk to the matches they already have. The matches they have are already the ones they've screened for.

It's possible for a man to have a lot of value to society, but little to none to women.

A society in which humans revert to their natural right is not a society at all. It's a reversion back to violence, rape, lawlessness. There is a hidden social contract within a society that the society is structured so that it benefit

In that similar vein of Houellebecq's described struggle, I'm reminded of the characters in "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" who live isolated depressing lives and yearn to keep real, living animals as pets but inst

In a world of billions of people, you'll find plenty of everything. The question is how much more difficult it is for those who are don't physically measure up. If some men are winning the lions share, then necessarily some others
