Nowhere on that website was there a "blanket statement" about all art. They said "I believe," not "It is stated fact."

I also share the opinion that having no interpretation can be either or since often I have no interpretation outside of "it looks neat" for something that later I find out has deep meaning for the author that is shared by others. I don't personally see it, but that's what I think.

Not OP, but I tend to use multiple sources via RSS. Iirc, Live Science covered the laser Hawaii one, and then the balloon stuff I either see on [there], here, or on social media elsewhere (or through friends).

RSS is the primary candidate through it all, though. Keeps everything relatively organized.

At the risk of not fitting into the conventional HN profile, the pandemic got me my current job. They were desperately needing to fill positions, and they were the only ones who would give me an interview.

Kinda stings to think about it happening that way, but it's work that isn't dread-inducing, so I'll take it :)

Same thing for Firefox on Android, it seems.

What flavor of bs would that be? I have no experience with, but aside from the usual "pay your own everything" and taxes, it seems like an alright place to be. I could also be very, or conditionally, wrong.

Run of the mill lab tech. Wish I had the privilege of remote work so I could focus on family instead of being gone for 10+ hours a day.

But that's a dream for other people who know how to make it happen. I take work where I can get it.

Personal/financial success issue:

Trying to figure out my life. I work a job I'm starting to hate because it's dead-end, but it pays well for what it is. Mentally exhausting though.

I haven't had time anymore to find something else, and to make it worse, it's not tech-related (in a broad sense, not just FAANG).

I'm kind of stuck where I am for a bit, but it pays the bills. I don't want extravagant, I just want a small place, far out of the way. Not into the "Van Life" thing though.

It's likely Rule 34 in this context has been reimagined as, "Someone cares just as much about $thing as you to [...]"

Other than that, yes, the original R34 version applies somewhere in the abyss.

What one may call "stale" I might call fun and interesting. That website certainly applies; I always enjoy seeing nice little places like that with an Old Web look!
