It is always weird to me how people refer to these people as monsters, but do very little to stop their actions, and seem to actively support them if it makes their life even slightly easier. Classifying the people who make these decisions

Which is an arbitrary metric that could easily confuse a reader. How much a composer is played matters more than the amount of pieces played. Furthermore, Chopin composed a relatively small amount of music compared to others composers, and

I don't know if this is true. For me personally I have had to use git for a lot of different projects, but I still don't understand anything besides commit, push, pull, add, and force-push (lol). In my experience you can get away

I try not to ask existential questions it seems to only lead down the road of deppression and nihilism. I work hard, because it seems to be one of the only things that makes me satisfied. Video games, tv, etc. may be pleasurable in the mome

True, its hard though to find nature and to find things away from screens in the digital age. That is what I hate the most about this world is how much we are surrounded by screens.

To some degree not watching t.v, youtube, and netflix has been very rewarding for me. The consumer culture that has permuated the world really gets tiring after awhile. Just relaxing, meditating, or praying is a lot more calming for me pers

Idk, I remember kids talking about drinking coffee as early their 6-7th grade year. I don't think I remember anybody bringing in coffee to middle school though. I think most kids really started drinking coffee regularly in high school.

Tbh, Stanley Kubrick is vastly overrated. Yes every one of his movies has great cinemotography, and is technically excellent, but many of his movies are not excellent as movies. Eyes Wide Shut, full metal jacket, and the shining are not 10&

Bootstrap is so antiquated. It is also far from easy, and even if you learn a lot about bootstrap is will not make your project suddenly look good. Not to mention the container system is one of the most confusing things I have ever seen, bu
