In some of the discords I'm in for programming as a hobby, I see people who are 10+ years below me that are far more motivated, knowledgeable, and competent that I was at that age (and some moreso than I am now). I doubt there's a

A year later, California would vote to ban same-sex marriage. I won't hold their bigoted views against them, as long as they no longer hold them. If I didn't have that forgiveness, there would be half of the voting population of m

Number of hours can also be misleading. I work 40 hours a week at one job. Someone who worked 40 hours a week at three jobs would certainly have more difficulties at work, like more commutes, more context switching, not having the benefits

I haven't seen anyone hold that platforms shouldn't be allowed to deplatform things and that people shouldn't be free to choose to stop using them because of those decisions. Can you point me to a comment that says that?
