Sounds like you've got some stuff figured out and you should be proud of that! It sucks when friends drift apart, maybe you could initiate some hangouts if you haven't tried that already. Not just 'we should hang out some time' but something like 'hey want to to get together this weekend and see a movie'.

As for feeling lost and bored, I can relate. I still don't really know how to handle that, I try to lose myself in a hobby, or deep dive into something that interests me. Doesn't make it stop but it helps forget about it for a while.

Stay real friend <3

Great explanation! The anology of the pool was helpful!

Most bots out there aren't backed by chat gpt. We had a flood of Russian boys using a sign up for on a site to send spam emails by putting the spam in the names and address fields. Slapping the most basic of captchas on the page solved it.

Has this user been singling out other users and posting about them? If not, maybe we shouldn't be singling them out and posting about them.

Either they are a dick, in which case block and move on, or they're a troll and want this reaction, or they are simple of different opinions then yours, which isn't grounds for singling them out.

Can't we just be nice?

I've been designing and printing 'enameled' pins on my 3d printer for a bit and recently picked up the stuff to actually cast them out of metal. So far I've casted one, and it actually turned out, so I'll probably be making some more this week!

I just created a new tool for my company, and I opted to leave out jQuery as I wanted to see how it would be without it.

After going through the process I don't think I'll use jQuery again unless it is already a dependancy. Vanilla pretty much has everything covered that jQuery made easier, just need to be a bit more verbose in some cases, but I've found that typically makes the code easier to read and modify.

No hate if jQuery is your thing though, just if you're on the fence I'd give vanilla a go and see if it fits your needs!

I wish my friends would tell me about the little things. It actually helps me deal with things as well, since odds are its something we all struggle with one way or another and talking through it with them helps me sort it out too.

Too bad we are all so worried about making things other people's problems when we could tackle this stuff together

As a guy I just want to point out that I've never noticed if that's the case with women. I'm just happy they're showing them to me :)

But I'll know, and if I don't get anything done I'll be upset with myself. How do I take a day of without me knowing?

Alright what games should I be getting this time?

Absolutely gorgeous!

Hey, thanks for taking the time to double check and come back even though you realized you got it wrong. Lots of people wouldn't have done that so props :)
