  • Remember folks: the reason we’re so successful as humans throughout the past 100,000 years is because of empathy. We take care of each other, and that makes us strong. The fascist ‘everyone for themself’ mentality will doom us. Don’t let sociopaths spread their mental cancer.

    Come on, people now, smile on your brother.

    The moment the seatbelt sign goes off, a bunch of people always stand in the aisle, even though the exit door won’t open for several minutes and even though several of them are a dozen rows from their belongings.

    They can’t deboard yet, and are only making themselves an impediment, so those in forward rows can’t even try to access the bins. In this photo, like on most flights, the majority of people in the forward seats can’t stand, because the aisle is filled with people who can’t deboard yet, likely because the door hasn’t opened yet.

    This saves the bargers at best 30 seconds at the expense of everyone else forward in the plane, and it’s very rude.

    Don’t do that. Don’t be the dickhead who stands and blocks everyone. You’re not going to move faster, but you will inconvenience everyone around you. It’s so stupid. Just be a normal human and wait your turn patiently so others can get their things. The door out is people-sized, and you’ll not extrude others by a few seconds, so sit the fuck down. It’s not about you.

    e: it not about moving off, because that’s not how this works. Just fucking sit and wait like an adult.








  • Why use a strongly typed language at all, then?

    Sounds unnecessarily restrictive, right? Just cast whatever as whatever and let future devs sort it out.

    $myConstant = ‘15’;
    $myOtherConstant = getDateTime();
    $buggyShit = $myConstant + $myOtherConstant;

    Fuck everyone who comes after me for the next 20 years.
