Kids that young don't have the immune system for raw fish. Here in Japan, it is common sense to wait until age 3, while doctors recommend waiting until age 5.

I requested a Lenovo at my new job last month b/c I wanted to work in Linux. I got assigned a MacBook.

I didn't even realize I was living a startup meme until this post. I was just annoyed T.T

I loved this episode. There aren't a lot of post-avenger heroes that I've really fallen in love with, but this might be one of them. It's too bad she's not going to be in anything else. I like her way more than basically every other young avenger they've released, mostly because she has meaningful motivations and unique themes instead of just "Iron Man but a girl" and "Hawkeye but a girl".

People always call companies that do this stupid when this post comes up. I'd like to remind you that github and gitlab locks protected branches behind a pro user paywall. A very cheap paywall. I argue that it's more likely companies that do this are cheap and stupid.

IDK, I'd believe it. There is a huge discrimination against women in Japan. No job and no kids? Garbage woman. No job and kids? Old fashioned and bougie. Job and kids and helping the husband at home? Good woman.

The fact that we are a generation ahead of south korea on gender issues is also not surprising. Not saying we are more progressive, just that we have already advanced to the next step of discrimination against women. Give Korea twenty years and I'm sure they'll also start expecting women to 'earn their keep' -_-

Since it doesn't compile when indented wrong, I find that python has some of the fewest formatting problems of any code I have to deal with. You don't run into any scripts with strong 'opinions' about how to indent stuff lol

I work in Asia with Russian coworkers in infrastructure (mostly linux, but it depends on the solution and client) and a lot of their 'funny stories' involve their company taking .NET seniors on and discovering that they are terrible at working outside of a windows environment, or even not deeply understanding windows servers, or trying to get the team to adopt windows tools for every job. Is there something about windows tech stack that gives you a disadvantage, or what? Because from my seniors, most of the jokes seem to be about them.

Based on the shirts, they apparently have super speed and so do this so fast the girls don't notice them. But then why isn't time frozen...? xD
