Anecdotes like this makes me wonder how much funding money and electricity could be saved if people migrated en masse from Ruby/Python/Something else to Go. (Edit: not meant to be a political statement, more of a practical observa

And for anyone wearing contacts, I can't highly enough recommend trying daily ones. They are thinner, more breathable, and don't need cleaning. After suffering for years with monthly contacts (dry eyes, discomfort), I'd only
