- Comment on Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS? 4 days ago:
Retirement and open source contribution sounds like an excellent combination to me. Give the old men something to do, let the projects be worked on by people who can take their time, make the best use of the expertise. All that sounds great.
- Comment on Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS? 4 days ago:
Because older men tend to be more financially secure and hence have more time for generosity.
- Comment on why do people say annoying/rude stuff and then tell you “it was a joke!” 5 days ago:
People will test the quality of a communication channel by saying nonsensical things on that channel, to see if those interpreting the message believe the nonsense.
It’s a way of affirming a bond of understanding between people.

- Comment on Can you eat soap for acid reflux? 1 week ago:
That’s a lot! What was the effect? Have you taken that much before?
In my own experience if I take more than a teaspoon in maybe a four hour period, I start getting undigested leaves coming out the other end.

No! A teaspoon max.

- Comment on YSK in the U.S., you can buy produce directly from black farmers and they will ship it to you. It can cost less than your supermarket and will piss off people in power. 2 weeks ago:
My guess is it costs a lot more to ship small parcels of food rather than to transport food in bulk to one big store where everyone shops for it.

A friend of mine is a federal employee, and hates his job. Has felt trapped for a while.
Just got a letter offering him the option to resign and be paid through September 30.
He says it’s a huge relief.
- Comment on What do I do? 2 weeks ago:
Go to work, work your shift, then come home and set a timer for 30 minutes.
Use that 30 minutes to work on your resume or send job applications.
Fulfill your obligations to the world so you don’t starve, then also fulfill your obligations to yourself because man does not live on bread alone.
Life is only hell when you have no destination worth getting to.

- Comment on Marvel Rivals - Season 1 Trailer 1 month ago:
I was really disappointed with this game. I thought it would be a lot more 3D in its battles.
I was imagining something like the spider man games, but with all the Marvel characters in that kind of cityscape.

Be consistent in your availability. Listen to him when he speaks. Listen as if he’s got something to say that you don’t already know.
You were once a 15 year old. You are both living on the same planet, among the same species. You both eat, sleep, and have the same set of emotions: fear, love, shame, etc.
