I think the idea is that, whilst shorting, you get squeezed. The question is not 'if' but 'when' and if it takes too long and you're $1B deep you can lose your shirt

Back in my day we had generational tribalism for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and we liked it.

Bi people are too emotionally fulfilled to want to crime

In some contexts there's no doubt you have a point, but liberal western cities I suspect that has no more impact than, say, the tendency of women to underreport domestic and sexual violence. Anyway I would imagine that a bigger factor is criminal perpetrators underreporting their own gayness

It's not really that straightforward though, is it? Firstly is it a mean or a median average? What counts as an empire? When do we date the rise and fall of specific empires? These are not questions with straightforwards answers. Would Hitler's Germany count as an empire? How many Roman empires were there?

Why is fzf, the best utility, relegated to the end? And why is ripgrep - a huge improvement over grep, especially if you want to search only on committed files in a git directory - not even mentioned? This list is outrageous. Even more so because I can't pretend to have known about all of these before, and annoyingly now have to face the fact that some of these actually look pretty handy.

This is great advice. It's easy to get disheartened with a spinning torrent, but heroes like you can turn that around.

Banksy is overrated sentimental trash and I will die on this hill. Also yeah it's a money making cooperative, not a single artist

It must be nice to work in a place that won't mind if you arrive drenched in sweat.

coughs nervously in works-from-home

But yeah, it's more weather dependent for sure

Ignoring it just means that there's no counter-narrative hitting people, and it skews the perception of balance
