Some say a mind is like a parachute, works best when open. But I also like this from Warhammer 40k that “An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded.” There are a bunch of ideas that you don’t have to give credence to because you already know they’re trash. You can seek them out for edification, but please don’t think open mindedness means you have to respect every idea with consideration, that you have to listen to people just because they’re talking, etc.

Anyway, good luck with your search. I’ve not been exposed to right wing comedy that’s funny.

For uplifting, I like chill games where people are nice to each other.

Hades has you piece back together your family and has a lot of great dialog.

Carto is a cute puzzle game involving rearranging maps where you help people on your way back home.

Haven is a young couple trying to make it on an alien planet.

Children of Morta is a family fighting together against an apocalypse.

Dreamscaper is a rogue lite where you get mechanically stronger through self care as you work your way through trauma by hitting it in your dreams.

Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are longer jrpgs in a Studio Ghibli style world.

Grandia is another jrpg that does a good job at capturing an adventurous spirit.

Lack of fedoras.

What if I’m facing south?

It’s like the swearing mudcrab mod for Skyrim, but it also spies on you.

Firefly Grindr.

(Upon actually looking this up, there are some species where females can fly, they just suck at it apparently.)

How else are you going to open your files in nano to do the programming on the prod server?

“Add to your library” is my guess.

Plus it has markers for variable types just like Esperanto has suffixes for parts of speech. Wall was a linguist, after all.

Esperanto always struck me as more perl-like with each part of speech having its own suffix like perl has $ for scalars, @ for arrays, and % for hashes. Though perl is probably more like a bunch of pidgins…

Production errors.

LGTM (lunatic gunner targeting me)

My opinion of Texas was capable of being even worse after all.

You want an award? I hate working with JSON without a prettier.

I enjoyed it but in spite of the action. So many life-altering injuries are healed up in days.

A few weeks? How do you stay employed? How do you even feed yourself at that pace? Blocked on making a sandwich, I’ve got the wrong type of bread.

It’s three lines in an editor config file to standardize the indents across any editor: https://editorconfig.org/

In vscode, adding two extensions is all I need:, yamllint (if you don’t use linters, I don’t know how you do your job in any language) and rainbow indents. Atom had similar ones. I’m sure all IDEs are capable of these things. If you work at a place that forces you to use a specific editor and limits the way you can use it, that’s not YAML’s fault.

At a certain point, it’s your deficiencies that make a language difficult, not the language’s. Don’t blame your hammer when you haven’t heated the iron.

So it’s easy to enforce locally but you don’t have to. And it’s easy to see indentation on modern IDEs and you can even make your indents rainbows and collapse structures to make it easier to see what’s going on, but I guess since some people want to write it in vi without ALE or a barebones text editor, it’s bad? Like there are legit reasons it’s bad, and other people have mentioned them throughout the thread, but this seems like a pretty easy thing to deal with. I work with ansible a bunch and YAML rarely is where my problem is.

YAML mixes 2 and 4 spaces

I think that’s a user thing and it doesn’t happen if you have a linter enforce 2 or 4.

Hobbies, sure. But specialization comes with tools and learning that generalists don’t have, couldn’t possibly afford, and would be a ridiculous amount of things to store and knowledge to remember. E.g. I don’t want to do my own dentistry and I’d prefer an expert for that. Dentistry in the US requires a whole medical degree, specialized tools, etc. I also don’t own the equipment nor have the knowledge to find and drill a well if I want to be “self sufficient”.

You don’t have to be an expert, and that can be very freeing, but we do need them and becoming an expert has opportunity costs. That doesn’t mean experts are shallow or becoming a generalist is deep or morally better nor does it mean generalists are in any way insufficient.

Your bedroom and your code sound dirty. No dessert until there are no more dirty clothes on the floor and all your merge conflicts are resolved.
