I mean not wearing a T-Rex costume to bed could be a dealbreaker for an intimate relationship. I’d find it more understandable than the number of former partners.

It’s Picard and arguably LaForge, who saw his potential.

But don’t let Kim hear about those promotions!

Red? Hotpink or bust!

Honestly the people that make me feel not lonely are not the ones I have sex with. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket; that’s how you end up in a codependent mess. Loneliness isn’t about romantic partners only, and friendships can be the most fulfilling things.

after my friend admonished him for being so rude as to punch a person in a country without free healthcare.

That is hilarious or sad or both.

In other news, having learned English mostly with 90s New York rap, including all the slurs luckily not in use anymore, I was shocked to read LotR in English and see what (or rather, who) Gandalf asked Pippin to throw on the fire in the Inn in Bree.

It wouldn’t be a good compass if nobody had strong issues with it:

  1. System vs Toy is not opposed to each other. Should have been system vs abstract or useful vs toy or whatever
  2. Where LISP? Best language missing makes graph bad

Edit: before people tell me there’s already ‘obsolete’ on the graph, no, there’s loads of obsolete languages that are still useful, and many more new languages that are either built for fun or not used for sad or good reasons.

Edit2: I’m also halfway sure that brainfuck is older than rust (but don’t wanna look it up). But if that’s true your axis mean several things at once anyway and you should feel bad (not really though).

I’m sure everyone can suggest something better regardless of what they’re looking for in a programming language.

So the way to remember which is which is to first know that crocodiles are found in what used to be Ancient Rome and their snout looks like they could write it with their letters. Got it.

I fully agree with most of what you’re saying. But I also have many close friends who started out as coworkers, but we found out we’re enjoying each other’s company.

Hell I’m crashing on a former colleague’s (and former boss’s even) couch right now, and another colleague in the same city offered theirs. Another ex coworker is my deepest confidant in just about any topic.

It’s a bit tricky to find out which people are worth deepening the relationship with, and how to cordially avoid the others. But that’s just like everywhere else tbh.

Edit: I wanna add it’s perfectly fine to keep your distance to people from work, as long as you’re not being an asshole. I know I would have missed out on great seemingly lifetime friendships with that attitude and I don’t recommend not joining this seemingly cool person for a drink after work for the sole reason that you work together.

In an ideal world where people read the open source yes. But having contracts with a provider means someone else is responsible if shit fails and that’s half of the corporate world there.

Well back in my days we would wear an onion on the belt, as it was the fashion at the time.

A perfectly cromulent maneuver.
