I really HATE falling into pit. I think it is HORRIBLE hobby for BADLY experiencing the depths in a SAD and ANNOYING way. While there certainly are the BAD effects falling into pit has on the environment to FORGET; I am too GOOD at falling into pit for that to be a concern. I have gone MINUTES without NOT falling into pit. Is this because I am GOOD at falling into pit or the result of my BAD choice of life? Who can say.

As a Python developer it is my sworn duty to create absolute abominations using dictionaries/maps in any other language I use

Not to sound too much like a Linux enthusiast but learning to use tiling window managers was the best choice I ever made. I dread having to do any serious work in Windows because of the window management

Do you ever feel like you might never make meaningful friends in this life because you've constantly equated your value as a friend with how capable you are of helping, and now as you've aged and been forced into increasingly obscure niches to make yourself valuable in the job market you find yourself unable to help people like you previously did, and it makes it feel like even trying to make friends would be a waste of their time? Not to mention that because you work part time and do school so you don't have time to dedicate to your hobbies and now everyone you see in your hobbies is way more skilled than you so it feels like you wouldn't be capable of having a meaningful conversation with them?

Also I studied for 12 hours straight yesterday but I doubt that has anything to do with this

Seeing someone online say something incorrect about something I autistically know too much about it so painful. I can't correct them because I know that'll send me down a multi-hour rabbit hole finding sources and explaining it all Just Right(tm) that I quite frankly do not have the energy for

Alright you animals I did it

Theming is still in progress, but honestly y'all should be thankful I customized it at all (I normally don't)

[lyraisnotonfire]

All I'm saying is if your Python is "Like English" you aren't doing it right.

print("Hello World") ^ boring, lame, intuitive, baby's first program

with open('/dev/stdout', 'a') as output: output.buffer.write(b'hello world\n') ^ Awesome, exciting, other devs will envy your Python AND Linux knowledge
