Humans have evolved for ages to be socially dependent creatures. Humans are also highly intelligent, and can tool their way through a situation for which they aren't technically "fit."
So, is social interaction really all that? Yes. Will you be fine without it? Being charitable and assuming you're excluding basic needs which have been socialized like shelter and food—maybe.
It's a shower thought. Pretty heavy judgement for something people supposedly just think about when they have nothing better to do.
(I was being facetious and was referring to the joke of making highly complicated evenOrOdd functions)
Damn, I wish I had an algorithm to tell me whether 75 and 25 are even or odd, though.
I should do this more often.
I think is one of them fool stack engineers or something.
Homestuck. 'Nuff said.
Yes. It was a cousin on my mom's side who I definitely should've recognized. Oops.
If I could cast a spell to rid the world of chewing gum, I'd do it twice.
TIL that dumb is defined as having scored less than 100 IQ.
Anyway, I've worked enough customer service to say with some confidence that I've met at least a few people who truly just exist and let the world happen to them with zero curiosity.
It's not a show, and typically one would play that game of "never read this" fairly unironically. But the webcomic Homestuck starts off REALLY slow and takes a few hundred pages to really even become interesting. It was so long ago, but I'm guessing page 246 was when I started to legitimately be interested in it. And I would say it finally gets good at page 1149.
So why did I read 245 pages of a story I wasn't very much interested in? The music, pretty much. I had already known Toby Fox had worked on something called Homestuck because of the history behind Another Medium (YouTube), and then I encountered this track (YouTube) in the wild and decided to read it at least until I reached the page this music is from.
Also, if you look at it purely for the ratio, getting good 1/8 of the way through is a little better than standard.
I'm mainly curious about software developers here, or anyone else whose computer is somewhat central to their life, be it professional or hobbyist.
I only have two monitors—one directly in front of me, and another to the right of it, angled toward me. For web development, I keep my editor on the main screen, and anything auxiliary (be that a dev build, a video, StackOverflow, etc.) on the side screen.
I wouldn't mind a third monitor, and if I had one, I'd definitely use it for log/output, since currently it's a floating window that I shuffle around however necessary. It could be smaller than the other two, and I might even turn it vertical so I could split the screen between output and a terminal, configuring a AutoHotKey script to focus the terminal.
What about y'all?
