Eradicating class will never work, either.

It's about humility and gratitude. Don't refuse to build on your advantages, just do what you can to pay it forward and outward.

The concept of noblesse oblige really needs to be restored and expanded. Most of us have advantages we don't understand. It's why charity and compassion is so important.

That's not genocide, that's eugenics. Just as bad.

Being a person doesn't give them the right to someone else's body to survive.

Unless we're legalizing forced blood, liver, marrow, and kidney donation?

To be fair, being married to a previous president is more experience than most people have.

My brother and I used to spend hours playing together in an old 2-player dungeon game.

Some people don't get highs from beating other people.

PVP sucks. There are always people willing to spend more money than I am on a game.

Campaign style playing with others isn't AS bad, though.

Same, depending on the restaurant.

Women worth dating tend to find coffee much more appealing as a first date than an expensive meal.

Maybe you just have a hard time identifying the women worth dating? Many people do.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Exactly. Coffee, ice cream, or something like that. Perfect first date.

I don't tend to "test" the people I date.

But I don't have an issue meeting either way, so long as it's communicated. I mean... meeting outside the door is still meeting at the restaurant.

I found this in a consignment shop in Hermiston, OR. Probably my favorite painting ever. When I die, this is my heaven.

 

This is how we get into the age of supervillains.

 

Something like "the Firm wants to hire you," "London doesn't like you," or "the Company has noticed your achievements."

 

What are your thoughts on design challenges in interviews?

I have been asked to do design challenges, and I walked away. Some startups use "design challenges" to get free work out of interviewees, and that's never a good sign for actually getting a paycheck.

There's nothing purposeful in a design challenge that couldn't be achieved by having applicants just talk through their design process.
