Absolutely 💯💯💯. It's almost always followed by some fearful take about protecting ourselves from some outsider who isn't "like us" and maybe about fucking over poor people for bonus points

Maybe drop a cookie in there to tide them over

New theory: Quora is an elaborate attempt to poison LLMs

I would pull it up if it seemed directly related, but just the UX was so awful that even if it answered my question, it felt bad the whole while. Though most of the time it was the most awful LinkedIn-esque winemaking m wind bagging by people desperate to be considered professionals in their field

Either they've forgot about me or I blocked them and forgot about it

The prose is weird, but the premise is kind of interesting

repl is my only friend some days

Second kagi. I'm just on the personal plan, but can confirm it's fire

No no I think he believes that Tuesday is just the naughty day for some reason

Like I didn't know why 69 was the "sexy number" until I got a girlfriend

That's a cool look. I know what you mean too, keeping it abstract is a way to scratch the creative itch while also being hard to fail at

I like this animation. How the lines move and wiggle give it a hand drawn feel. Congratulations on finishing something at least!

All I've got is a notepad stuffed with ideas, a broken Godot game that is poorly designed from the start, and some dialogue trees that barely connect, let alone make sense.

Great!

There's also something so satisfying about looking at a finished picture that you made by yourself. Like I'll be thinking the whole time how I really screwed this one up and it turned out nothing like what I wanted, but I'll keep scratching away until it's "done." And it feels... Really really good.

And then a week later I'll open my notepad and see what I drew and be like "whoa this is pretty cool actually!" There's usually at least one part about a drawing I like (like a bit if shading that looks cool, even by accident), that I can take with me as something to focus on attempting.

Just keep doing that and eventually people will just say about you "oh man so-and-so is a really good drawer you should see their stuff" and you know you're still learning, always learning, but still you'll believe them. You've become a good drawer. An artist.

Hell sometimes I'll save just after having thought about writing something

Meanwhile I, a gentleman

Binding the Enter key to save the current buffer. 🧐

I'd be fine with catching just some of them. Then can just block and forget

What's funny is that pirates often become paying customers when they can afford it. So it's not unlikely that Bowser helped stoke the flames of nostalgia in thousands of gamers. And what kind of console do you think those people are going to get for their kids if they ever start a family?

Glad you're still with us!

I totally agree right down to your example (I'm a software dev). The pandemic was very good to us. I never thought I would have this kind of financial stability. It's kind of led me to an anti-hustle mindset.

Now I'm taking jobs that let me work less, even though I know I could earn a lot more if I really put my back into it. It's just not worth it, though.

I've only got N years to smell the roses, may as make em good ones.

Click-SLAP click-SLAP, click-SLAP click-SLAP

Dang that's so cool. I'm sure it's a phenomenon we've all noticed, but this is the first time I've heard it named
