You’re missing the parent’s point. You’re still making introversion out to be something that you should work at to compensate or fix, because not doing so would be unhealthy. E.g. you exercise because…

I feel like there are natural settings for making friends. E.g. - Frequenting the same restaurants/stores (HT earlier sibling comment) - Joining clubs/communities/churches - Parents of …

> You do it because if you don't, then you'll be worse off years later. This feels hyperbolic. While I would agree that community and remaining connected are very important to overall h…

Of all the jobs to get replaced by AI, I would be happy to see realtors to be first in line (but I also think this is wishful thinking). I feel like I get very little value out of what seems to be a m…

Oh, my kids are older now (18 and 21), but when they were younger, we definitely did plenty of LAN-party games like Minecraft, StarCraft (1 and 2), Terraria, Torchlight, and (when they were older) TFC…

It may not be completely over, but it’s far from the focus of multiplayer gaming. Many games that used to offer couch multiplayer (e.g. split screen) options no longer do. The upcoming Starfox remake …

As great as the spirit of this article is, it only offers problems without solutions. I’d love to see example of “bad” solutions made “good”. As a result, I feel like solving this problem is easier sa…

This reminds me of a lesser known and underrated game on the GameCube, Pac-Man Vs. (designed by Miyamoto). [1] It worked by having one player use a GameBoy Advance (connected to the GameCube with an a…

I flagged it because it looked like a low-effort vibe-coded cash-grab app that doesn’t do anything novel that Pages doesn’t, and the submitter has zero other history (reinforcing it’s a cash-grab). Th…

This is true, to an extent, but one missing variable is peers, and the — sometimes outsized — influence they have relative to parents. Some parents limit screen time and delay giving their children ph…

> A “friend request” mechanism is one way of achieving this. But then you’re left dealing with spam “friend requests”, which is still something I have to take action on, filter out, or ignore — s…

Probably better to link to the article, rather than a thread that has 0 comments. https://www.reuters.com/world/nasa-live-international-space-... …

How is this on the second page with 589 votes in 2 hours? The only thing that makes sense is that it’s being flagged, I guess.

> We envision 2.1 as our last major update of Factorio, and we will shift the focus onto long term support. So things like bug fixes, platform support/compatibility, modding features, etc. Ot…

This sounds similar (but not quite) to Ready Set Bet [1], which is probably a lot easier to find than this. This game, as the title suggests, is pure luck, based on the cards you were dealt. In RSB, i…

> a lot of people hate the drink, but idk. I thought it was fine. Aren’t there a lot of different drinks, though (at least 3 or 4)? E.g. I know Miralax can be an option for some which practically…

Honestly, AI may pollute online interactions to the point that people give up trying to interact online, and force people to talk to each other in real life. I’m not sure I would be sad about that out…

I wondered if that was it (I’m on my phone).

I'm not sure I follow/buy the premise of moving second-hand sales to a physical building as beneficial to eBay. If I'm looking for X, I'd much rather go to an online store, where I…

"Running a business well" is now "low ambitions"?

There are times I would agree with you, and times I wouldn't. If the theater is full of people talking during the movie or lighting the place up while they’re on their phone (in either case ignor…

Except we're actually seeing a non-trivial reduction in SWE jobs, particularly entry-level roles. May be short term and turn around at some point, but the current trends definitely feel lower vs.…
