TNG was comfort food for many of us nerdier Xennials. And this man is in the Mount Rushmore of Sci Fi actors.

R.I.P. Captain.

"Right in to the mud!"

Remember watching this as a kid after school eating my bag of chips I'd been given for lunch which I'd save up so I can eat it later while watching this. In Canada, it was aired as MXC.

> "Basically, try to do the opposite of what HN is saying and you might just create a successful product."

If every instinct HN has is wrong then the opposite would have to be right.

Yeah, when you realize this decade and the next, pretty much everyone you grew up whose entertainment you consumed in the 60s-80s, who was an adult then, is coming up... it's a sobering thought.

I feel like happiness is not an absolute nor permanent state. It's ephemeral and relative. You go to a deli shop and your favorite sandwich maker makes your meatball sub just the way you like it. You eat that sub and relish every bite. You're happy and ... reasonably happy .... like Huell. Then later at night you get dumped by your g/f. Now you're sad and you experienced both on the same day.

I think the same way about sadness and depression. Not an absolute nor permanent state. You have your moments when you are sad and/or depressed and then you bounce back.

I think most people normally experience all these emotions on a cyclical basis.

Maybe the title should be "Don't be Poor in America" . If you're rich then there's really no issue.

I don't know about most, but many do. Yeah. Some people just can't work in other people's code at all.

Nintendo is a close 2nd. They can keep selling the same damn game every 5 years and people will keep buying while complaining about it. Their consumers just can't help themselves. They think if they just buy Ocarina of Time one more time with newer graphics that they'll be able to fill the void in their life. But for Nintendo it's all gravy.

Wow, if you can't get a buddy to use it for free... this really is not the same league as the iPhone.

My buddy hasn't used it to do any work in a while. Only uses it every now and then to watch movies.
