Stainless steel, flat-ish bottom, tall curved (wok-like) sides, all metal. Something like this mf: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81O93YXWJ-L._AC_SL1500_.jpg

you can:

• pan fry
• stir fry
• stew
• throw it in the oven for roasts
• soup in a pinch
• use it on every kind of stove top

care:

• minimal
• steel wool and scraping is a-okay if it gets nasty!

downsides:

• you'll never have a good time frying wet starches like noodles without some serious oil
• your first 4 attempts at pan fried fish will inevitably result in destruction
• fried eggs are gonna be tough

quirks:

• heats and cools very quickly, so you'll have to break some habits if you ever expand your cookery collection with carbon steel or cast iron

Ahh, for some folks, MOBAs are RTS games with the worst bits taken out!

I think Celeste is designed to be a super narrow experience - pure platforming. I found it pretty pleasant, but not what I'm generally looking to play. I personally don't think it's overhyped - the platforming design and movement is really very excellent. Having said that, not my cup of tea either.

A lot of metal acts tend to be scared of veering off from their niche subgenre, so they end up making albums that sounds like mashups of their earlier albums.

They have one song and boy are they going to milk it

It used to be pretty meaningful when autocomplete was not as powerful as it is today. Only very serious emacs users could achieve fast and flexible static completion before LSP forced everyone to step up their game.

Now that everybody and their grandparents have LSP available (or even more powerful tools if you're using Very Professional IDEs), it's not nearly as much of an issue, just hit tab and never type close brackets again.

It's not that folks are averse to writing code, it's more-so averse to actually typing out a shitton of boilerplate and feeling the slog until you actually get to the juicy bits where you have to think.

I think beehaw is intentionally not moderated and controlled as a reddit replacement. There are lots of people who are looking for a reddit replacement - beehaw cannot be that for them. Some people get frustrated and speak out, some of them accept it, some choose to move on. The way lemmy works is also fundamentally different from reddit, some lemmy instances look to replace reddit by federating with everything, and that's totally okay. Beehaw does not do that for moderator and community health.

Hey, sounds like you're doing a good job already! One thing I want to add is to establish a boundary for the three different relationships you'll have with your coworker - mentor, personal, and working. You don't necessarily need to be explicit with him about it, but you should have a pretty clear idea where the lines are for yourself. This is so that you can be aware of when you need to be a mentor, when you should be a boss, or when you should just be another human. Of course those boundaries will change over time, so it's good to re-evaluate every once in a while.

It's also good to remember that at the end of the day, you can't actually change how your coworker behaves - it is up to him to make the choice to not say shitty things, be kind, and do good.

I'm literally sending an email to help@saveincels.org as I type this, while calling the incel hotline, and writing a letter to The Incel Whisperer at 42069 Incel Therapy Rd.

If camping is a problem, it's almost always a system issue.

The actual idea of crypto is reaaallly cool: a decentralized trust system that enables incredibly difficult to fake transactions and records without the need for a trusted third party.

Unfortunately a lot of the implementations relied on 'capital' as the proof of trust - GPU work (money) and number of controlled instances (money) are two big ones. Which really all led them down the path of ____coin which is fundamentally incompatible with the ideal of 'no third party can govern trust' because suddenly whichever party that has all the proof of trust is now the third party that can govern trust and approve transactions. Someone can own a ___coin.

Crypto could have been a decentralised system that can keep public records, documents, ideas, etc. - it can guarantee authorship and date if a user is willing to submit identity information. Lots of actually useful functions!

From a practical perspective, even using open source takes some time and effort. I suspect many people gravitate towards apple is because they nail the basics and have a great out of the box experience.

I'm against Apple in principle, but that doesn't mean I didnt get an M1 air when I had to upgrade a year or something ago - it was simply the best in the market for the price at the time.

Also apple does not respect privacy nearly as much as they love to tout. Open source in general has a much better track record with privacy because of the people building the tools don't have as much profit incentive or government oversight.
