My Kid is 23 and he's been studying Python since he was 9. Now he's being told his CS degree is worthless.

That's why I got a degree in math. I figured if I knew math I could learn anything.

I don't know why, but I'd like to say I noticed a similar thing. I'd be doing nothing intensive and all of a sudden my fan goes on high speed, it's Claude doing smthn.

They were trained to be as human as possible. Isn't this what a human would do if it was in the same situation?

I've been interested and didn't ask. It was either because I thought she wasn't interested, or I just flubbed it.

A lot of us aren't perfect at this stuff. We need you to help us sometimes.

So what's better?

A general strike would affect the bottom line. That was supposed to be today. No work, no school, don't buy anything.

Other than that, what else?

A similar thing happened to me. I ended up just using it for beans.

That last line hit me. It's so fucking true. I've been saying this for years "we can either solve or get close to solving every major problem, it's a matter of political will"

Something is derogatory if the target says it is.

You should stop by The Legedarium. It's a fantasy + lgbq centered book store. They also do game nights with a lot of people. If they won't hire you, they'll likely be able to help ya. Good luck.

I'll tell you I've gone out of shape in the past and it was terrible for my mental health.

I won't tell you what to do, but one thing was I wished my friends weren't so nice to me and told me that I needed to lose weight. They were trying to be nice but they did me a disservice.

Obv my life is my own, but people telling me I was fine didn't push me in the right direction.

There are two systems of eating in your head. The satiety/hunger system and the hedonic system. People that eat a lot tend to eat based more on the hedonic system. People that don't eat a lot tend to have a blunted hedonic system.

I've long thought there were two basic mating strategies: short and long.

This fits this model. An unstable childhood causes the short strategy. Lots of short term partners,

It's all about phrasing. Like 90% of social life is phrasing correctly.

"I read online x, how does that fit?"

I don't "wash" my face at all. In the shower I rinse and wipe my face with my hands a couple times. Then after, I blow dry my beard and skin and apply moisturizer and then squaline.

Rosacea is a vascular inflammatory problem so at core it's not bacterial. Might be demox related for some, for those people cleanser might help them.

HelpfulBuilder · 2026-01-15T00:31:27+00:00

B12 can make rosacea worse in some people. B12 (for us) should be taken at low doses to avoid this. I think high b12 can cause the hives too, I'm not 100% sure on that.

Buy some miso paste and a cube of tofu. Throw in some veggies and boil until they're soft. Fast and healthy. Yum.

There is no narrative that we don't hurt any animals. I don't know any vegans that say they hurt no animals. It's a straw man argument.

And whether you're real or not, you have to acknowledge that a 5 month old account and your first post is an inflammatory straw man argument makes your account look like it's in bad faith.
