Watching/reading/consuming modern news is too stress-inducing (as it is designed to be) just to have something to chat about or become more well-informed about issues that in large part have no bearing on me.
I pay attention to issues that are important to me at scopes that matter - state and municipal. Everything else is noise.
Antiseptics and antibiotics are both classes of antibacterials, but yes, antiseptics can be delivered intravenously. At that time, they may have used something like iodine, penicillin or even carbolic acid.
Allowing comments on a news aggregator doesn't mean it's a forum. The fact that HN purposely doesn't have much of the standard functionality of a forum should clue you in to the fact that it isn't one.
The anonymity of online forums is like alcohol: your personality traits are going to be amplified under the influence of them. If you're an asshole, both alcohol and anonymity are just going to make you a bigger asshole.
Doesn't mean it's the fault of either Lagavulin or HN.
The internet is never going to be 'small' again. You can choose to deny the changing reality of the modern internet and stick your head in the sand, but it's going to be apps and centralization from here on out. Maybe DeFi will have some impact on moving the modern internet in a different direction, but indulging in nostalgia for the 'good old days' of Gopher and NNTP mean you're not contributing to the betterment of the current internet.
If you're new to the 'professional' working world, then I can understand a lack of conformance with the norms of those environments. However, if you've been working in professional environments for a while, there's no excuse for not understanding those norms and why they exist, short of some kind of cognitive differences.
This article does a decent job of summarizing some of the issues that face the mentally ill and pointing out that psychiatry without strong community support is almost useless.
However, it's really just a subtle ad for a book, which probably just reiterates the same points in greater detail via lots of anecdotal data and case histories, points the finger at the government for not spending more money on programs designed to support the mentally ill within their communities, and doesn't provide any further concrete solutions.
Hasn't this same book been written over and over again?
I've mentioned this before, but I think the conflation of 'developer' and 'software engineer' can really cause confusion when hiring. These are different roles that most HR, management and even most 'developers' aren't clear on. When you aren't clear on what a 'software engineer' actually does, and don't hire based on what that role really means but based on some other semi-related criteria like 'works well with clients' or 'bills lots of hours', you're going to wind up with a lot of confusion.
This looks interesting, but the coolest part of this site is the forums. I had no idea that phpBB was still in active development/maintenance. It's surprising how ridiculously fast it is, and how much information is packed into each page. The topic pages are full of images and complex layouts, but it still renders completely in less than a second. Granted, Cloudflare and caching are a big help, but it goes to show what years and years of continued development and optimization can do.
Remember, this is Wall Street you're talking about, so both things can be true: Twitter can miss analyst's expectations, and the stock can go up because other analysts see an opportunity based on different expectations.
If you're expecting much of what Wall Street (or journalists covering the markets) does to make sense, you're going to have a bad time.
The founders may have energy industry experience - which is what you want, since it's the operating domain and they'll have industry information and contacts that 'outsiders' won't - but they seem to have a pretty strong development team: https://utilityapi.com/team.
I thought that referring to your base URL in a canonical tag was a bad idea - why would they do this, since the content on each of the two pages is different?
It's ok to send feedback, but understand that it's probably not going to change anything at the organization in question, except brand you as the 'Anti-Teams Crank'.
It's also perfectly ok to reject a position based on anything at all; the UCC suite they use is a perfectly reasonable reason, considering how much time you'll likely have to spend using it. Hell, I rejected an offer because the office was in an old building and the wooden floors creaked like mad.
However, given the weight of your opinions and the emotional response you have to an environment that doesn't suit your needs, have you thought about starting your own company?
