Software engineering: Don’t script stuff! Seriously, just stop, it’s a huge waste of everybody’s time. I don’t fucking care if you think mygitwrapper.sh is the bomb. I want you to know your git commands by heart or just learn to use the damn history on your terminal.

Scripting is only allowed if it’s part of the project’s infrastructure. Stop faffing about.

Mate, let’s first focus on getting you better. Nevermind how the parents would react, parents aren’t there forever and their reach on our lives can only go so far. I know in Asian culture things can get nasty, but at the end of the day there’s just you and your sense of self. It gets better as you age and get to know yourself more and work through the issues left by trauma. But we need to get away from the morbidity aspect, that’s not good for you.

Sorry, I’m not trying to be your therapist, but there’s some relatability in your words, I feel an impulse to help.

I’m not judging, I’m trying to provide a different perspective to your pessimistic view of the world. I think it might help you.

Yes. I can’t change the world and I have a life to live.

Indeed I do. Here on Lemmy, for instance, anything with news in the name gets blocked. I follow my local news on my own terms by going to the news pages instead of being fed whatever is popular today. This helps a lot. Logically speaking, “news” must include mostly bad things, otherwise it’d be called “sames”, (assuming, as I do, that we live in mostly good times). I’d recommend to everyone, specially people on the younger side, to try to experience life by yourself and connect to people one on one, mass media is a cancer.

It is not common knowledge. It is a common fallacy. People are the solution, not the problem. Bad things happening in the world absolutely do not mean “people are bad”. You guys need to work on your psychological resilience. The bad news don’t decide how you relate to people in general, that’s a choice you’re making. And you can stop making it. You’d feel better and less cynical.

(of course I’m here lecturing people, but I myself don’t always manage to keep a positive mindset, we’re human)

People are great. I don’t mean to offend, but a generic dislike of people like that is a sign of low self esteem. Or any other of the myriad of mental illnesses we have today. That’s why I asked. This needs to be addressed, simply moving into the mountains is not a solution.

Again, I don’t want to sound confrontational, but psychiatry has studied this for decades, it’s not a new thing. I wished we stopped making jokes with this subject. If yall dislike people that much, maybe you need some help. I’m saying it sincerely, not to belittle your individual experiences.

How big are your tits?

Do you mind me asking why do you want to avoid (what seems like) people in general?

Never underestimate the power of not wanting to be standing under the sun doing manual work.

A droplet of rain once passed through a completely closed car window and hit me on the cheek.

Hmm I don’t know… Users usually don’t pay much attention to security. And the disclosure method actively hides it from the user until it no longer matters.

For providers, I understand, but can’t fully agree. I think it’s a misguided culture that creates busy-work at all levels.

Indeed, then it becomes a market and it incentivises more research on that area. Which I don’t think is helpful for anyone. It’s like your job description being “professional pessimist”. We could be putting that amount of effort into building more secure software to begin with.

That’s the fallacy I’m alluding to when I mention stuxnet. We have really well funded, well intentioned, intelligent people creating tools, techniques and overall knowledge in a field. Generally speaking, some of these findings are more makings then findings.

God, I hate security “researchers”. If I posted an article about how to poison everyone in my neighborhood, I’d be getting a knock on the door. This kind of shit doesn’t help anyone. “Oh but the state-funded attackers, remember stuxnet”. Fuck off.

It can be overwhelming, yes. But it’s not difficult. A bunch of dumb people go through it every day and they get to their destination just fine. =)

Don’t worry about anxiety, once you get there just focus on the next thing that needs to be done at any given moment and you’ll be ok. You’ll find that the brain gets into a problem-solving state and you’ll be landing in Korea before you even notice.

But then that’s me sending a message to past me and the messages can only go as far back as today, so that’s like me writing a message right now and then reading it right now.

So I need to be able to meet with the assassin and somehow send a message with location and date so that past me can avoid it. Repeat until the 7 days end.

I guess I’m also not smart enough. Sigh… Past self, I tried, but I don’t understand the rules, so we’re dead now.

The post: A picture of bowing nurses in a hospital with the caption: “Chinese Doctors bow down to an 11-year-old boy with brain cancer who saved several lives by donating his organs.He wanted to give another people a second chance he never got”

The comment: “ok, let me position myself… 3…2…1… bow everyone!”

The point being that these idiots obviously either bowed just for the camera or had to organise to recreate the bowing moment, both of which are absurd.

Talk us through it… how have you come to this predicament? What stopped you from eating breakfast? What do you mean stuck? Do you even work there?

Just buy him a deodorant and go: here

A bunch of sensible suggestions actually. Dammit.
