Part of the problem is that UA is such a massive airline, odds are any alternatives would involve quite a bit of sacrifice. Not many people would be willing or can afford to take an extra 2 layovers or 50%+ extra travel time or cost in order to get to where they want to go 🫤 That’s not to say I won’t try my best to avoid UA though, I was already sick of them after my last trip and now I find this news.

+1 if you can have automated checks do part of your reviews for you, it’s a win. I never comment about code style anymore, if I care enough I’ll build it into the lint config

I kinda wish I knew what it was like working on Y2K stuff. It sounds like the most mundane bug to fix, but the problem is that it was everywhere. Which I imagine made it pretty expensive 👀

I’ve had this in Japan, not sushi but at yakitori. Ended up in the hospital but it was fun to say I tried 😅 and surprisingly tasty too. Yakitori is my fave Japanese cuisine, I only eat the cooked stuff now though 🚶‍♂️

imagine if any tech company sold a service at a price that’s at least the cost to provide it, that would be outrageous

Mt Dew isn’t that bad but it’s the kind of drink I can only have once in a while, probably the sugar content makes me sick. Black tea on the other hand, I could drink all day, and is fairly tasty too

Funny I consider OW2 a better upgrade than CS2. But maybe because OW1 had a worse starting point. The game needed a total rebalancing and that was what OW2 was about. Yes it’s not something they needed a “new” game for but it still made the game 10x more fun for me. CS2 doesn’t seem like it’s provided any rebalancing at all, feels basically just like a visual update (which OW2 also had). As a super casual player that only played a couple hundred hours years ago, I can’t really tell the difference with the new engine (besides smoke mechanics) so the changes feel way less dramatic. But I’m definitely having fun revisiting CS. Also I can see why people would be more mad about OW2 monetization because CSGO has always farmed people for money whereas OW1 gave a ton of free skins. Now they kinda feel like they’re at the same level 🫤

I used to have Paramount Plus for Big Brother before I got tired of it, it’s good for that “reality” genre. Also nice to have a news channel which is not an offering on the larger streaming networks.

Other commenters hit on the reasoning, just adding that they’re called highly composite numbers. My favorite!

is that Paul from big brother? the guy who iirc got 2nd place twice? could definitely be a doppelganger but looks very much like him 🤔

Just curious, how does being in a Slack channel feel more like being controlled than being in an office?

I’ve always thought the same thing. I grew up playing a few sports and there was never room for toxicity, even the one or two times I played in a somewhat competitive league. Now I’m playing casual esports and I gg after every match, win or lose. I don’t really get why that’s hard for some people, and they have trouble focusing on the win condition.

It’s especially frustrating to see people give up in a 4v5 or something like that too. Like yeah it’s not going to be easy, but it’s not impossible. And when you end up coming out on top against the odds, you feel like a god, and you remember that match forever. I think people just want the high from winning without actually needing to try. It explains why there’s so many people who make smurf accounts too 😐
