Man, this guy did back flips over fireworks just to say he doesn't like unions. Great, grand, all that work just to find yourself at a common position of little value. What would be more interesting is a thought on modern alternatives.

This is disingenuous and weirdly political. When I went to college I got my ass kicked by being forced to do difficult things the hard way (to grossly over simplify my education) which in turn gave me a level of intellectual independence. T

We used to hang out in the smoking section of diners at 2am with friends slugging down coffee and chain smoking. The whole smoking section was packed with the rest of the place empty. In a way I miss it because it was such a social thing to

As someone who had to cobble together a soc2 program - this is mostly true. At a large enough firm, soc2 is useful as a base level of operations integrity which lots of small firms lack. If you have not reached that level as a firm, a good

Yeah I disagree. We've normalized a lot of bad shit because it was pressed into the strata of our lives like road kill on asphalt. My kids do not need to see beheadings and exploding people. I could have done without that exposure. It

This is, in effect, an all in one writers workbench. Writing tools, certainly, but it lets you develop a forest from the trees perspective on the entire novel E.g. You can visually structure the arc of the story and add/del, drag and d

Thank you! It is indeed a lifetime license for backers. Add-ons/modules will probably be separate but that's still a ways away. The base platform is pretty feature rich so we'll be dialing that in for some time

Also! We are not charging for subscriptions or any kind of cloud hosting. This is a one-off buy for a fully desktop local application. (E.g. The analysis models can be downloaded and run locally)

Illegality without enforcement is just a suggestion, no matter how strongly worded. Something we are all coming to realize a little too late

Well, time to enjoy other things then, no? Shows over, go outside. Hang with your friends. Or be really rebellious and do nothing for a while but watch the clouds (and never tell a soul you did it!)

That's a valid point. Dev/team member isolation, not a great environment to build

This is funny in how cut and dry it is. My friend, do you have kids? It's my theory that crying evolved as a trait because it forces parents to go find some place safe lest a predator finds them, thus ensuring the helpless kid can grow

Lost me at the start: "A recurring meeting serves as a powerful forcing function for long-running projects." No it doesn't. It serves as a burden ball that gets kicked around on the calendar field once the value of the series

I appreciate the tutorial. I thought it was well done. I'd love to see something like that in some board games I've played.

Do we actually need social networks? These, to me, feel like artifacts of a bygone era, now replaced by the boiled down version - group chats with friends. Telegram has every feature you need in a platform and you get the joy of "circl

This is cynical. Listen if you want to put time into a project then show it to the Internet to collectively shit on it, then kudos to you. You went on a journey and gained experience through it. Personally what I think I'm seeing is a
