isn't a gift you give to the one who wronged you, it's a gift you give to yourself. Permission to stop carrying the hate.

But it's your hate, and you get to choose. It isn't about if they "deserve" forgiveness or not. That's not the point.

If you don't want to forgive, don't.

But that shit takes energy. Choose where to spend it. Plenty of things are literally unforgivable, and that sucks, but it's life.

It's up to you to decide how to spend your time and energy.

I really don’t understand user-hostile infrastructure like this in SF’s public parks. The main argument I’ve heard is that it’s to stop certain classes of visitor from ruining other visitors’ experience, but stereotyping one specific user group (skaters, in this example) is just old-fashioned bigotry.

Not to mention that this kind of (dubious) strategy isn’t even applied evenly. The worst experiences I’ve had in our public parks have almost entirely involved dogs, but I don’t see anti-dog infrastructure anywhere (heck, I don’t even see respect for, or enforcement of, existing dog regulations most of the time).

If society collapses, what skills will make you useful to society so that when cannibalism inevitably becomes a thing you're not turned into stew?

Kojarzycie Świat Dysku Terrego Pratcheta? I Vimesa komentdanta straży miejskiej Ankh Morpork?

No więc Pratchet ustami Vimesa stworzył ciekawą teorię nierówności społecznej (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory) w skrócie:

Bogatego stać na realne oszczędzanie. Bogaty może sobie kupić porządne skórzane buty za 50 dolarów, a biednego stać tylko na takie za około 10 dolarów. No i te za 10 dolarów rozlecą się po sezonie. Jak będzie miał szczęście. A te za 50 dolarów będą dobre latami.

Generalnie jak kupujesz drogą porządną rzecz to masz spokój na lata i realną oszczędność. A jak Cie nie stać to de facto musisz wydać więcej.

Otóż mam taką myśl, że dla coraz większej liczby produktów to już nie jest prawdą, bo wszystko jest kupą tylko czasami kupa jest droga. I już nie ma marki telefonów, która będzie dobra latami, ale wszystko jest tak zrobione, że za krótki czas będzie trzeba kupować coś nowego.

Żyjemy w czasach postępującej utraty jakości na rzecz maksymalizacji przychodów.

Dopiero dzisiaj zrozumiałem, że nie używam Linuxa dlatego, że jest otwartoźródłowy. Nie dlatego, że nie śledzi użytkowników. Nie dlatego, że jest darmowy.

Używam Linuxa, ponieważ chcę mieć działający komputer.

Wiele osób uważa, że Linux jest bardzo trudny - te wszystkie komendy, nauka systemu na nowo itd. Bardzo niesłusznie! To właśnie Windows jest przekomplikowany i trudny. Każda kolejna wersja Windowsa to nakładka z łatkami na poprzednią wersję, aż do momentu, gdy coś totalnie przestaje działać.

To prawda, trzeba nauczyć się całego systemu na nowo, ale realną trudnością jest przełamanie lęku, a nie faktyczna nauka.

Dopóki nie spróbujesz, nie zrozumiesz, co mam na myśli :blobcathearthug:

Why do we need cases for our phones? Shouldn't the phone have a repairable chassis?

Imagine buying a car and having to wrap it in a custom chassis.

Is a life sentence inherently unfair? If you’re 18 and get a life sentence, you spend way more time in jail than someone who gets a life sentence at 75.

On the reverse side of that, is a 5 year sentence like a life sentence for a 75 year old?

Just used calc() for the first time - oh is it nice. People pile on CSS a lot but there were times you had to do stuff like this with jQuery.

Anyway. I played around with sidenotes for my blog following the inspiration from Tufte CSS (still skeptical of people who name everything they do after themselves...). Seems to work great! Sure, there are probably more elegant ways to do this around images but whatever. Much better than footnotes, and it works great on mobile!

When i was in primary school, we would have weird recess debates about who the worst dictator was. Hitler? Zedong? Stalin? A dark horse (Pinochet, Franco, Pol Pot)?

Techbros are the modern equivalent. Who's the worst? Google? Zuckerberg? Dorsey? Musk (bought in but still)?

It’s so strange that over the course of our lives our bodies grow 2 sets of teeth within our first 10 years of life and then never do it again.

The term “shower thoughts” will take on an entirely new meaning after the AI-integrated bathtubs achieve sentience.

Very random thought....

I am on my Windows computer so much for work that when I get off, I really just want to do something not on a computer. I realize that I now associate Windows with work and it doesn't feel like something fun or enjoyable. It doesn't feel personal to me.

I've been trying to figure out why lately I've had trouble with personal projects and perhaps this might be a small part of the answer.
