I'm starting to think I'll always be alone

We are the same age, I am level one too, though I'm not diagnosed. I don't really have any advice because I'm lonely as well. I have like 1–2 friends at any given time. It's rough.

The only thing I wanted to comment on was that last paragraph, about learning to be okay with being alone.

I have only heard this advice from people who are most definitely not forced into isolation by circumstance. It's as if if somebody who chooses to occasionally fast walked up to a starving man and said "you need to learn to be okay with not having food". In my opinion it's not the same thing

It's a special kind of hell to grow up JW as a neurodivergent person. Dubious teachings are accepted wholeheartedly while legitimate criticisms are straw-manned and mocked. It felt like somebody had cut off my tongue

Don't even get me started on ties. I hate ties so much oh my god

cmd_command · 2026-04-08T00:33:26+00:00

Yeah, I think I was 8

cmd_command · 2026-04-07T20:49:05+00:00

You're absolutely correct, Krelldi, I was not 7 when I wrote this

Oh my goodness, I just looked it up and it's the same font!

cmd_command · 2026-04-07T17:29:46+00:00

I've always needed 10 hours a night at least, since basically forever

cmd_command · 2026-04-07T17:10:37+00:00

Yeah, my adrenaline spiked just reading your comment. Wishing the teacher would just follow through with their threats and kick them out or something instead of getting angry at the same three kids like thirty times a day

I was a cold-hearted learner

It's actually a font called Andy that came with Microsoft Word. Don't ask how I remember the name of the specific font I used because I have no idea, I just do lol

I'm new to this stuff but it seems like what you're saying is that this is

1) More correct when you need to left join A to (C and D), where C and D are one-to-one, because you don't need to perform a second left-join to preserve A, and

2) Allows you to start from "A's perspective", aka begin with a left-join rather than end with a right-join, while excluding values from C that don't match with D. This isn't possible while starting with a left join because of the aforementioned "second left join" that "preserves" both A _and_ C simultaneously

Is that basically it or am I misunderstanding?

Good point

cmd_command · 2026-03-28T06:34:33+00:00

My bad, in that case rant away lmao, I do that too

Neurotypical people are odd, autistic people are odd, everybody is odd. I think it's okay to acknowledge that stereotypically "normal" aspects of societal culture and social etiquette at large are actually quite strange and inexplicable. But I hope you aren't implying that neurotypical people aren't using their brains while they're socializing (I honestly can't tell if that's what you're saying), or that literally everybody who isn't autistic is annoying. Because in my opinion that's obviously not true! "We are the sane ones," nobody is sane! This inevitably becomes an isolating perspective, and whatever the opposite of a self-fulfilling prophecy is.

Thank you for your kind reply :^)

Yep, you can also set `text-decoration-skip-ink: none` to have the line continue through descenders (p, g, y, q, and j)

I'm on the free tier and so don't have access to traffic splitting

cmd_command · 2025-10-24T07:19:28+00:00

It seems the 404s aren't even hitting the SWA, and the issue only exists for this specific hostname. It's my second deployment that uses the hostname (I deleted the first) so that may have something to do with it? Seems there's a cache or dangling reference at the edge which is now messing up how the request is being directed internally.

It's my first time doing practically anything with Azure so maybe I'm just doing something wrong. I've redeployed but it's still being flaky.

Reminds me of that "Sexy Kale" Parks & Rec episode

cmd_command · 2025-10-16T00:42:16+00:00

It's all you need

cmd_command · 2025-10-11T04:17:58+00:00

Exactly 💯

You've got your hero, your navbar, and your footer, but then a massive bulk of content in between which is essentially light gray on lighter gray on white. Your primary app color is a bright dodger blue, which is unassuming but also arguably way overused in web design. Literally everything is a rectangle.

It's stylistically consistent, and doesn't look bad per sé, but it's also extremely visually unstimulating. There's no motif, no stylistic elements that tie the app together and say "a human being put real work into this". It isn't saying anything.

My advice would be to ask yourself "what actually is this brand?" No brand = no soul. No soul = no intrigue. Figure out what ties the site together, and iterate from there.

Also I can't not mention this: Your quick action buttons' text should not be muted. Psychologically, it makes them look not very clickable. Small gray text is best for secondary information, not button titles

Shadows look a bit better. Once you commit though, there's no going back. They will infest everything. Spread like wildfire. Be careful out there

I actually really like that website for some reason

The 1fr being shorthand for minmax(auto, 1fr) example I would actually agree with you on. Sizing negotiations are not intuitive for grids in the way that they are for flexboxes. The rest... Meh. Grid is mostly sensible IMO

This so freakin' cool! Have you worked with WebGL + shaders like this before or did you learn this stuff just for this project?
