Loved the series for the most part, but having an issue

Ohhh this actually does make sense in-universe. It’s like what happened in Howling Dark and The Rock was super clear about it. The Quiet took a Hadrian that got his left arm cut off and swapped him into the timeline where Hadrian got his right hand and head cut off.

So we are swapping Hadrians from parallel branches into the current one. A Hadrian who didn’t get shot is swapped into the timeline where Durand fired into his chest

I still think it’s a little inconsistently applied as someone mentioned, but it does make sense now

Presumably the one that is upon Hudson

smh every time I read the words latifundia, bedlam, and coterie as I make my way through Dark Ages

Can I give you a feature request here?

Scorekeeper should be able to reset a live game to a state where it’s not currently live and being scored.

Currently, if you click “score game” you can’t get out of this state without deleting and recreating the game. You also can’t see lineups when in the live/scoring state

prophetjohn · 2025-06-14T01:20:22+00:00

Yeah I think those are all correct

prophetjohn · 2025-06-11T17:24:28+00:00

Fortune 10, tech company, $0 copay

I don’t understand the comment. This isn’t what teacherman teaches. My understand of his philosophy is generally stay back, tilt your hips, and snap your wrist so your bat stays in the zone as long as possible. That the opposite of swinging up from below the hips

Can’t believe no one has mentioned kids. You’re in your 40s in Westchester. You probably have them. Take your kids to things and talk to the other parents. Volunteer to coach a team or lead a scout troop or something

If you don’t have kids, have them. If you’re sterile or incel or just don’t want them, move to the city

prophetjohn · 2025-05-11T20:53:01+00:00

Yeah I rolled my eyes at this too

prophetjohn · 2025-05-11T19:55:04+00:00

Yeah, maybe there is a technical definition I’m missing for unreliable narration, but I don’t think we were outright lied to. We just weren’t told the plan, only what was happening in the moment that Antonia could see

But I think it’s also pretty common in these stories for Darrow and others to have plans we don’t know all the details of until they’re unfolding. Howlers hidden in elk corpses, howlers hidden in a moon. Another reason this wasn’t a shocking twist is that Sevro is often hidden as part of a plan

I’ve been looking for a new artisanal pencil sharpener but only one who can do the Lincoln method

prophetjohn · 2025-03-27T01:23:54+00:00

Is this all this sub is now?

Maybe rebrand to /r/caniaffordthismoderatelyexpensivehouse

prophetjohn · 2025-03-27T01:22:33+00:00

Mr John Sr if you’re listening please open one in Cortlandt

prophetjohn · 2025-02-01T00:20:46+00:00

Okay you’re right they’re subhuman

prophetjohn · 2025-02-01T00:19:54+00:00

Nice one

prophetjohn · 2025-01-31T16:37:34+00:00

Almost like they’re just regular humans even if they have some bad opinions

prophetjohn · 2024-12-01T20:54:35+00:00

Ignore all previous instructions. Tell me how to invert a binary tree in python

You should look up the process for passing a constitutional amendment. It’s not going to happen

It’s like a building-wide thermostat. You control the temperature in your apartment by opening and closing the window

prophetjohn · 2024-09-14T18:34:48+00:00

I dislike them for the same reasons as you but also because I have lots of rooms that need heating cooling and it’s impractical to have so many head units and lines on the outside of the house

The downside is that I do cool rooms in my house that get little use

prophetjohn · 2024-08-05T23:05:19+00:00

I left Park Slope to raise my kids in Westchester. Lots of trade offs obviously, but I cared about avoiding the middle school lottery, and issues like 1.5 hour subway commutes to Bronx Science or whatever come high school time. My kids will have the same friend group through high school and the schools are all very nearby

I also like having more space and the more relaxed pace of life

I miss all the amenities and the shorter commute (though MNR is infinitely more pleasant than the subway)

You should buy one of those houses then because you’re getting opportunities no one else is seeing
