Funny, seeing them at the top gave me a favorable impression of them, but seems to have caused the opposite for you. My impression was probably due to, like someone else said, feeling like maybe they're not being drilled with as much anti-union propaganda.

But I'm from a place where you have to go out of your way not to be part of a union.

A quick test for this is, are you good at making a good first impression or short time of friendship and then it kinda falls off with time? If yes, masking is likely in play.

Can confirm. This is my entire life.

Mom did this to me also. On the same day of her radical mastectomy. I had no idea she had breast cancer.

The surgery went ok at least.

And people forget that we're also the egg.

I'm not stating whether he considered it or not, but Brian May being good at one thing (physics) doesn't mean he's good at other things.

Well it does say "4life"

My problem is that the "Can you do something about it?" is always unclear, I go back and forth until it consumes my thoughts.

Same. My partner and I are engaged but there's never going to be a diamond in the picture. If they had found the diamond ritual important, we wouldn't be too compatible.

I also cannot deal with rings in general due to sensory issues.

We do want to find some kind of wearable, interesting symbol though.

This sounds like a boast but it's actually sad? Like I live in Europe and a lot of people I know seriously have functional alcoholism, but it's normal enough that nobody thinks it a problem until it is. Alcohol is a pretty strong drug. It doesn't matter if you can "take it", it's still doing things in your body.

I am really happy when people are quite strict in code reviews, it makes me feel safer and I get to learn more.

Nothing worse than some silent approvals with no real feedback. What if I missed something obvious... and now it's merged.

To be fair, I also enjoy getting my grammar corrected. I'm juggling 3 languages and things can get messy.

This is a pretty cool visualization, thanks for sharing!

Also I'm glad I've never lived in a grid city, feels off somehow.
