Minor feedback that you're welcome to ignore: I found reading your comment a little bit slower & more annoying because of your lack of upper case letters for sentence starts. It's an interesting comment so I still read to the

Are you actually asking a question relevant to the thread or just spamming a self-promotion? I ask because I don't see any reason that paid open source contributions wouldn't be as good as non-paid open source contributions when i

Forgive me, but a small grammatical FYI: it should be "my sister and me", not "my sister and I" - because you're both the object of the verb "raising". The way to think of it is imagining what word you

A wall clock would be my suggestion, having inherited a couple of lovely ones myself. Even though one of them is worth quite a lot of money, it's not like a watch where using it risks easily damaging it - it's mounted high enough

It's hard to guess why you've interpreted their comment as being "happy to see them go to hospital with concussion". But I would suggest that in a debate over whether or not it's a good idea to punish children who a

You could argue that it's specifically true for projects, but the definition of average absolutely doesn't require that. If for example you had 100 projects were 50 of them were built by expert teams who poured love into their wor
