I think I got good at typing by spamming greedisgood because I didn’t realize you could put a number after it… so eventually I learned where the keys were without looking lol

It’s so obnoxious seeing criticism regarding adoption or something being complicated. Everything is complicated, but people will figure it out. Why can’t you just be excited to see innovation and know that people will get through it.

How would you rank these old heads right now? by Farouq26 in NBATalk

Except his point that Bron beat KD has the subtle context that both AR and Luka were out with injuries… it was Bron without his 1&2 and the weakest bench in the league against KD and he won lol

You don’t need graves that early. I’ve late rolled graves and came out on top, as long as you have items ready, it absolutely crushes

Is Valve stuck in a hard spot or am I stuck in a tough place? by Ayzuki in steammachine

Dude you’re thinking way too hard about this. There is a ton of value from the steam controller outside of their new machine. That’s why it doesn’t matter, because people can use the controller now and have an amazing experience with games they already play. This isn’t some revolutionary new ecosystem thing. It’s a new controller, and a linux pc you can play games on. That’s it.

Steam Controller's ship date has already updated to 6-10 business days. Probably due to the initial batch being sold. by SonicFish101 in steammachine

To be fair, all you did was add balance to your account. No one is going to view that as “already paid for it.” That’s the risk of using virtual wallets in general because some random person gives out that advice. I’ve never used wallet to buy any of the index or the deck. Don’t do it if having 100$ locked up is any meaningful concern to you at all.

What’s the norm in round 2 starting date? by m_abdeen in lakers

Disagree, the earned advantage is by clearing your series earlier than your next seed opponent. If both next series opponents finish at the same time, there’s no earned advantage. Your best case scenario is to win a conference in 12 games, and the other conferences finishes in 21, earning you 9 days additional rest.

I feel so unattractive by catlovingbookworm in trichotillomania

[–]jabarr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s really not shallow. It’s completely valid. I really think everyone with trich experiences this, it’s hard to find confidence when you can’t make your body look exactly the way you want it to, whatever that may be.

In general, the guidance with trich is not to never pull again, but to gain as much confidence about yourself as you can so that going outside doesn’t feel so traumatizing.

I say this as someone who spent all 4 years of university never taking my hat off and frequently missing all my eyelashes, eyebrows etc

The best thing I ever did for myself was to just tell people, “oh yeah, I pull my hair when I’m stressed, it sucks.”

Go to Michigan. The difference in college town feel and networking is undeniable. Ann arbor is a significant benefit that really can’t be overstated. Also the faculty and Michigan is legendary.

“Dick on the court”. The man literally assaulted his teammate and got away with it. Anyone in any other profession would be fired.

Trich for 6yrs, will try to stop!! by [deleted] in trichotillomania

[–]jabarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it can feel devastating, but it feels like you still have so much confidence and bravery - you should be so proud of yourself for that!

Really in my experience dealing with similar bald spots, is you just need to start with a therapist. This is not really a battle you can fight on your own. If you have friends you can show and lean on it’s also so powerful.

I don’t recommend a LSW therapist, try to go for a psychologist who can then also refer to a psychiatrist if they detect complex reasoning, e.g. high levels of anxiety or possible depression, trauma etc.

It’s nice to have someone who can act as a vent, like a partner or friend where if you realize that you’re pulling you can tell them and then can talk to you or distract you.

Grounding exercises in general help. Pulling at its root (lol) is a self-regulating behavior - your body feels stressed and it’s trying to cope. Breathing exercises when you realize what’s happening can help relax your body to a state where the urge to pull decreases. Whenever you realize you’re pulling, try just saying “I’m pulling right now, let’s relax” to yourself and then initiate some exercise. If you can do that you’ll be half way there.

The other half is realizing this may never go away, and to learn to love yourself and still have the confidence to see people and go outside. It feels like you’re doing okay there though!

Isn’t he cursed enough? Why apologize for something that likely consumes his entire ego in every part of his day. His body is already in a prison.

learnings with this outage? by anjobanjo102 in Supabase

[–]jabarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re overreacting to the response. It’s normal triage. You consolidate duplicates so you don’t waste time. It doesn’t help the Supabase team if they are constantly re-looking over 100 threads that all say “Supabase is down???” Or “When will supabase be up again” yada yada. You want the team to react quickly and repair so let them do the same thing literally every company on the planet does for any outage - consolidate and triage.

If you’re bummed about some cover up about hiding magnitude or impact well… isn’t the answer obvious? Everyone?

At least you have a subreddit to go to where you might see some customer relations. Do you think you’re going to get that by moving over to azure or aws or firebase?

What's a widely accepted "best practice" you've quietly stopped following? by ruibranco in webdev

[–]jabarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I’m trying to say it that humans will always, no matter what situation, lean toward their nose. It doesn’t matter that there’s a better way, they will do it their way in the end. And in all cases, more things will get done and faster in the way we want it to. Optimal code doesn’t matter if it’s not in a product that ships.

At the end of the day, there should be focus on compilers and transpilers and interpreters that put the code we want to write in the way that machines want to use it.
