I presume "vibe coder" stands for Visual Besic?

The Legend of Korra spoilers:

It's been a while, and I've lost some of my steam over this. But yeah, that's the only one I've got the energy to type out right now.

I mean, in all of those circumstances I just hold my breath. I'm certainly not wanting to breath in a bad smell through my mouth.

But if the question is can I elect to breath through my mouth without pinching my nose, the answer is yes. I wouldn't describe it as "shutting my nose," though, so maybe we're not talking about the same thing.

I start next Monday, what now?

I'm hired, what now?

The smell you get when your mom runs the household vacuum cleaner from the late 2000s / early 2010s at noon on Sunday.

Never felt any impetus to drink, and I have a personal aversion to recreational drugs.

Without thinking too hard about it, I probably get the most joy from learning stuff, especially when it's within a topic of interest and has any level of application to my interests or skills. Bonus points when I make the connection myself.

I see other comments mentioning ADHD, so I'll add that I have a diagnosis for it as well.

Good question, though. It's been a while since I asked myself this, and I'm overdue for a reassessment. Thanks.

I don't block unless it's excessive spam. Informational disadvantage, yadda yadda.

I just exercise the same muscle I use to restrain myself from responding to bait on modern day Reddit, since my account there is still active but not posting (yes, even lurking is technically contribution, but there's too much useful information there for me to justify completely cutting it out).

And for the record, I disagree with block features removing posts from the user on the other end. Public information -> only I get to decide what I do and don't see. Private information -> only I get to decide what I do and don't share. A bit idealistic, but we're talking about a web forum here.

I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with being proud of impersonal achievements. If one of your parents did something considered pretty great, I think it's generally fine to be proud of it, even though you had no agency in being born to them.

As with anything, though, it's very possible to take it to the extreme. If an achievement or value becomes your entire personality and you begin to actively disparage others on the basis of not-being-that, as you said, that's when I call it one of the bad "-isms."

I see nationalism as a range within that of patriotism, but starting at that extremist point.

The thing is, AI doesn't need to take over the world if the BiG tHiNkErS are so eager to replace humans regardless of its merit.

That corny ass song from a few years back:

"I don't wanna be alive, I just wanna die today"

->

"I wanna be alive, I don't wanna die today"

Didn't even get the joke here because this is how I always imagined genie wishes working.
