Also, fuck cancer. (Cancer vaccines may be next, the end of the article.)

I went through the comments to check if someone hadn't already mentioned exactly this. Here you go.

I have used PowerShell since its inception, and still believe that the Monad manifesto is very relevant. However in recent years I have switched to Python for this same reason.

It's more widely available, especially outside of Windows it already has greater support for advanced features. PowerShell is not a first class contemporary to Python on Linux.

Quite easy to learn. A lot of default learn materials, tutorials, examples.

You'll also be able to find people in market with Python experience more readily (especially going forward) if you need to hire talent for your company.

My own father was harsh, complicated, difficult to deal with.

I always thought I'd do the opposite.

What I learned later on was to ask my own children what their day was like, what excited them, how I could help them when they needed it most... and then you need to listen. Even if they're asking silly things, things they have yet to learn, that's how you find that connect.

And to some extent I try to balance the discipline by thinking, if I drop dead tomorrow, will I have prepared them as best as I could to become their own person? Will I have done it in a way that they'll remember me fondly?

So far my kids have always said I am a great dad, all the same I ask myself if I could do better every day.

I think the question you started with here is the most important one though, how can you do great/better.

This is such a missed opportunity.

The barrel should've been a Tribble.

Wonderful confirmation.

To think how hard it is to confirm these planets, for such a relatively close star. When we have already confirmed so much about objects at far greater distances.

Hard to comprehend these achievements from our individual perspectives. 👏

Can you share her number? I lack the ability to recognize social queues and mating signals.

A lady this literal seems like someone that I could connect with.

You know what, good. Maybe it'll cause the people who keep using Chrome because they don't give two shits about their privacy to get off their asses and use something else.

Just like whole tribes are refusing to move from WhatsApp to Signal, because they say they care about privacy, but actually they don't.
