Congrats Zach! I owe you a lot. I started using Codecademy in 2011 or 2012 when I was in high school and it was one of the main tools I used to teach myself programming. Fell in love with the hobby/profession and it's what I'

There's a surprising amount of coasters that run backwards nowadays! You have a handful of wooden coasters that generally run (or did run) backwards as part of a Halloween event (Racer 75, Thunder Road (RIP), Racer at Kings Island and

I feel the exact same way. I went through the interview process with a handful of good startups through Triplebyte (and got offers from almost all of them) and even though I ended up taking a job with a company outside of TB, I still walked

Adding my anecdote to this thread: Started noticing hair loss in my early 20s but managed to convince myself that it was just stress. By my mid 20s when I was in a very low stress position I finally concluded that it was just plain MPB. I c

I might be remembering this totally wrong but didn't a mobile browser (maybe Opera?) offer this feature as well, like 5 or 10 years ago? I seem to remember trying it out for my Android phone back in the day

Most of those issues have been resolved and I wouldn't call it particularly downtime prone anymore. In case you're curious, here's a video from one of my favorite theme park YouTubers describing the ride and why it took so lo

I'm also curious about this. Maybe OP was struggling with "what's the point of life if we all die anyways" and found Catholicism gave them an answer more quickly and efficiently than other methods like reading/synth

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but don't the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines not grant sterilizing immunity, aka you can still be a carrier if you're immunized?

Luckily for theme parks, the pandemic hit right as winter maintenance was wrapping up for seasonal parks so it shouldn't have many adverse effects if any. And since then, maintenance workers have been on site running and getting the ri

Fox News is absolutely bad for the country but can't we condemn it when we see similar tactics on both sides of the aisle? Condemning NYT for its wrongs doesn't make Fox any less bad.

Not too derail this thread too much but I like the idea for your app, I made something similar for platonic friendships a while back and still am a big believer in the idea! How much traction have you gotten with your app?

Interesting article, thanks for sharing! That everyone seems to have different definitions of what "defund the police means" and urge each other not to take the meaning too literally whereas others do take it literally reminds me

Out of curiosity because I have little to no knowledge of immunology: what do you think that means if someone that already had the disease can be reinfected? Does that have any implication on the efficacy of a vaccine?
