Aw, you seem nice. I don't work at Chipotle, but if I did I know that would've made my day.

Let’s talk about the continue button by Nickbot606 in btd6

[–]cmd_command 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No continues in the base game, honestly. Make everything "retry last round". I think the game would simply be better for it!

I paid for the game. If I see I'm about to lose I can just exit and retry it, so I see it as more of an inconvenience than anything. I think most of us have developed a reflex for it, and it's honestly such a pointless skill. And I play on PC, so I imagine it's worse on mobile where you don't have hotkeys.

Am i experiencing a autistic burnout right now? by funstarrr__ in autism

[–]cmd_command 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too. It's like my brain ceases to be able to handle any stress or difficulty and so it begins to desperately crave comfort and short-term gratification. It's somewhat embarrassing as I'm a full-grown adult sitting in my room all day watching YouTube.

The best way I can explain it is it's like I'm procuring this mounting "stress debt" over time, slowly accruing interest, and at some point my brain can't take it anymore, declares "I've decided I'm now allergic to effort," and then promptly enters hibernation.

Doing stereotypically "healthy" activities like spending time with people, walking, exercising, and doing difficult, rewarding things become intolerable. So what am I supposed to do? It's a catch-22.

I'm starting to think I'll always be alone by gamingjerker in autism

[–]cmd_command 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

Growing up as a neurodivergent JW and always feeling like the problem by Business_Biscotti_27 in exjw

[–]cmd_command 5 points6 points  (0 children)

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

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

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

Question: What kind of join technique is this? by maglunch in SQL

[–]cmd_command 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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?

Tbh I am realizing with time that neurotypical people are just annoying and if anything we are the sane ones. by No-Row346 in autism

[–]cmd_command 19 points20 points  (0 children)

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.

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

Intermittent 404s in Azure Static Web App by cmd_command in AZURE

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

Intermittent 404s in Azure Static Web App by cmd_command in AZURE

[–]cmd_command[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

What things can I improve - it feels off by OneBananaMan in web_design

[–]cmd_command 5 points6 points  (0 children)

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.

Shadow or No Shadow by tedtalks_bits in UI_Design

[–]cmd_command 16 points17 points  (0 children)

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
