   For your personal life mainly. I guess I'm most curious about whether you're planning on where you're living etc in the context of various forms of climate breakdown. I'm also curious how many personal changes you'v

   I'm genuinely curious: why would this be flagged?

   I found this hard to read. I have struggled with poor sleep for years (like, 10 years probably). It's not _that bad_, but, memory isn't great and definitely don't feel rested in the mornings. But I'm still reasonably fun

   Did you read Mindf*ck? Fascinating book. I'd be so so angry about Brexit after reading it if I'd been affected.

   Having lived through the Christchurch quake, this was the thing I hadn't properly appreciated. It's a sequence, so, you can expect literally thousands of quakes after a big one like this. It's completely and utterly headwreck

   Yip, I just stopped reading news for a year 2 years ago. Then I restarted again last year, and now I've stopped again. Definitely better for my mental health! (and you see enough headlines here and other places that I still feel pretty

   I find it slightly interesting that it's US only to begin with. Imagining a future where use of technology like this was restricted by geography. It'd give US workers an _insane_ advantage.

    Attributes do support defaults. You can absolutely do: attribute :my_time_at, :datetime, default: -> { Time.now } attribute :persisted, :boolean, default: false What I like about the types is that it will automatically coerce

    Have you looked at ActiveModel::Attributes ? That coupled with ActiveModel::Model makes for simple form objects quite nicely. Also, you can write your _own_ ActiveModel::Type so you can require that a particular attribute is a particular (b

    Hah! Love your nick! I haven't played games in years, but, I really enjoyed half life and the bioshock series (and portal, absolute classic). Any others to recommend in that vein?

    Love this idea. Could you just expand a little on PlayOS? It's this running an underlying OS which then boots into a bash console running your repl? Just curious, would love to do something similar (or use yours if it was available!)

    Also, consider just printing out the legal two letter words and leaving them there for anyone to check ... Saves on the "win by memory" and allows more tactical play by all. I've been playing like that with my parents (in the

    How do you end up in a situation where your dad, knowing nothing about coffee plantations, ends up buying one and then leaving it to you?

    This was great! It prompted me to check what the story is for Android/Google. I hadn't realised there's https://www.google.com/android/find which lets me find/lock/wipe it. Also extra handy: I

    Just curious - what's wrong with backup codes?

    That is a neat enumeration, but, the question did ask for classes and inheritance which this definitely isn't. Would you really just ignore the requirements and give the simplest starter as a way to start a conversation?

    I own an rm2 and love it. However, I also love my Kindle and if I had to choose I'd choose the Kindle. When my Kindle (or RM) dies, I'll almost certainly replace it with the new writable Kindle, especially as I assume it's ba

    ? How did you pull that off? Can they not just set their own DNS so you can't block them finding sites, and then if they're communicating over tor how do you even know what they're looking at? Most impressive!
