We call that "shit you say when you're full" in Korea. It may be subjectively stressful, but don't expect much sympathy from people who objectively have it 100x worse than you do.

Nothing about a communication app inherently incites violence. It's the ass-backwardsness of the community that is the cause of this behavior. The answer is better education, not misplaced blame on technology. Would you have banned gos

Conscientiousness is taught and learned. You weren't born with your current conception of what it means to be a conscientious member of society, you learned it explicitly and through osmosis. "Nobody with an ounce of decency"

Why so adamant that the two are mutually exclusive? The reason road work signage has been legislated (or socially defined) into an issue of liability is, again, due to education.

Interesting how people's intuitions differ. For me hiding yet another . method that requires discovery is more burden on the human. I'd rather reach for map/filter => processing.

It's a special case that matches `else` with `if` at the wrong level of indentation. Seems a lot like faux-simplicity, like a lot of Python: it seems simple and "pythonic" superficially, but really forces the coder to learn s

How does anyone in this whole goddamn rotten system even pretend to serve justice anymore. Laws are literally being used selectively to persecute the weak, and look the other way for the powerful.

I like the way you think, do you write anywhere else? I'm only in my first year of designing and writing code professionally, much of what you point out about this being 1. difficult, and 2. a social/human endeavor rings true.

I agree this is a good default. But because of this, here in South Korea we have con artist pedestrians getting purposely "bumped" by cars and going off to lie in a hospital bed, leeching medical bills from the driver until he set
