Honestly, you might need therapy. But definitely an unpopular opinion, I'll give you that.

It's definitely not faster than vim, fwiw.

Yeah the city is progressive. Tornadoes... Not as much as you would think. There was one last year that hit the outskirts of town a bit. Last one to do any damage before that was like 2017.

Have you ever been to southeastern Nebraska? Like... Where most people in the state live? It's nothing like western Nebraska. I live in Lincoln and it's a great place to live: progressive, lots of parks, great school system, nice downtown area, beautiful university campus, etc. Nothing like you're describing. Nebraskans don't actually go to western Nebraska very much.

Most of the population lives in the southeastern corner of the state, in Omaha, Lincoln, Nebraska City, and some surrounding counties. I live in Lincoln and it's a very nice place to live. Western Nebraska is completely different and not many people live there, and most people in the state don't go there either unless they are driving through.

There's no feeding going on. We're simply laughing at their expense.

I'm millennial and have never heard of that one.

And, you know, most businesses aren't open at midnight. So you're more limited in what you can do in a day.

Also, getting a decent amount of sunlight is important, and that's harder to do when you're sleeping through a lot of sunlight hours.

4 is pretty early but 10:40am is also just pretty late to wake up unless you're like, a teenager or something (or work odd hours). A lot of the day is already gone by then.

IMO it's nicest when you can keep your waking hours relatively close to the time the sun is up.

Yeah I was gonna say, those aren't the same at all. English has way more prepositions than French.

Most places don't actually look like this. You see stuff like this when a single developer buys up a bunch of land and stamps down a bunch of houses with the same 2-3 layouts. It's pretty shitty and I'd eager most people don't actually like it.

Most suburbs here are much more heterogenous as the houses are added incrementally over time.

A real nerd would know that React is a library and HTML is a markup language, and neither are programming languages.

This is actually good advice, though.

Unix is my IDE, vim is my editor.

Yep. When everything about your IDE (unix) is programmable, it makes "modern" IDEs seem quite quaint.

Personally I make extensive use of https://f1bonacc1.github.io/process-compose/launcher/ to orchestrate a bunch of different shell scripts that trigger based on file changes (recompiling, restarting servers, re-running tests, etc.). Vim just reads from files as needed. It's lightning fast, no bloat, and a world-class editing experience.

The director of IT at a trucking company absolutely would have power over the devices used by said company.

You're the fucking problem. Maybe if you treated people with humanity and worked towards a common solution instead of using technology to drain people's souls, you wouldn't have people that hate the shit you're slinging.

What you do makes the world a worse place to live in.

That's simply false. Increased length increases the entropy of a password, making it harder to brute force to gain access.

You have to go out of your way to restrict the length of passwords. There's absolutely no reason to do it, and it is contrary to all good security practices.

The world is political.

Definitely heard it called that at least as far back as the 90s. I assume it predates that, though.
