Depends on the end, and depends on the means.

This makes SchemaLoad's comment perfectly clear.

(but do I appreciate the effort you put into your reply - reading that monad's are more like interfaces is new information to me, and might help down the road)

Have you listened to his Common Sense podcast? He doesnt produce many episodes anymore (he talks about why in some of his most revent ones) but it used to be far more regular than Hardcore History.

I think they’re referring to something different than you are.

Agreed. Maybe the circle can shrink to it's final size, and then have the word 'restart' appear.

Do we know whether "the end of the year" is the fiscal year or calendar year? Given the context fiscal year seems very plausible, and that's less than 2 months away.

It wasn’t lost but something went wrong with the film development on about half of it. I believe that’s why it has two such distinct film styles (which also happens to work quite well for the film).

This – a thousand times, this.

I spent 5-6 years dealing with something like long-covid (only it started before covid). It had symptoms that seemed clearly related to an infection, but I also noticed effects that were similar to Alzheimer/dementia. Specifically sundowning.

I would become unthinkably exhausted and my mood would change drastically between the hours of about 5:00 and 8:00pm. Later in the evening, things would magically start clear up and I'd feel closer to normal.

That was, by far, the worst period of my reasonably long life, and it's still not something I'm over, I can just manage it much better. If anyone is dealing with something similar, I'm happy to talk about things that have worked for me.

I don’t mean to be an ass, but in no way is a sous vide fundamentally the same concept as a dishwasher.

There is no precision to the temperature or time control of a dishwasher, and there’s no dry cycle on a sous vide.

I think the real magic is that he cared very deeply about both.

I'm also colorblind, and I think the hardest thing for people to understand is your statement "My brain isn't wired to look at colors and register that as /a unique thing/".

When people find out I'm colorblind they love to ask me the never ending stream of "What color is X?" questions, which are fun but superficial. I think the bigger difference between myself and people with normal color vision is how often I fail use color as a piece of information.

On the other hand visual texture means a ton to me. When it comes to clothes I could care less about the color but can absolutely be swayed by the look of the fabric.

I was looking in those areas.

Agreed that you can find $300k houses (and cheaper). I was just surprised that the nicer areas were still pricy. I mean Indian Village, and the neighborhoods you mentioned, have some nice homes, but those neighborhoods feel like an oasis surrounded by areas that are dealing with very tough economic situations.

Again, I was just surprised at the price for places I liked. If I wanted to take a chance on a neighborhood that might turn around in the next few years I could find some deals (although a lot of those homes need a lot of work).

Those $500 homes are not inhabitable. As someone who was in Detroit less than 24 hours ago, I can tell you I was surprised at how expensive the housing was. Not that it was close to Bay Area prices, but I was expecting to see places I liked for 300-400k. The reality is more like 600k for less than 2,000 square feet.
