Ah, yes, thank you for the explanation.

> It can't be that intelligent people can disagree with you on what is important and what is not in a language.

This is quite harsh sarcasm, but if it isn't true for the GP, it's true for so many people. Well said.

Ah, now I understand. You're saying that it's fallacious to believe that an upswing will necessarily have a downswing, and vice versa, is that correct?

What I understood (due to hastily coming to conclusions) was it is dangerous to believe that life has lows and highs.

> This perspective that life is a narrative with upswings and downswings can itself be treacherous.

Is this not certainly true?

> Your life is not a prewritten narrative with defined story arcs.

It seems to be that someone could believe in the statement before this and not this.

I strongly disagree, for entertainment is not the only reason I read things.

The author, as it seemed to me, opened the topic of three semi-related issues -

  people who've done an incredible amount,

  social media and how he reacted to growth,

  and how life is after you've reached (what seems to be) your highest point

- all of which are fascinating, yet did not wrap any one of them up.

TL; DR: You're changing OSes, expect for a complete change in landscape.

> A different bunch of volunteers were asked to roll the die just once

Was anyone else surprised to see "bunch"? Why did they use that, when "group" would be a much better word?

> "In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's there are few."

As someone who likes to read quotes and examine the wisdom within (or at least I tell myself that), I see no wisdom here.

The only possible interpretation which I find makes sense, is that the priorities of the expert are much clearer then the beginners. The expert (through experience and intelligence) knows what matters, and what details are not critical. The beginner however, places great importance on things which are near-worthless.

If that is the more correct interpretation, then I find the wording clumsy. If this isn't then please enlighten me.

Wrote my first makefile, which was quite an experience.

  Why I'm working for the man and not doing a startup?
  Stability and lack of passion.

Two good reasons, however, not too insightful (subjective).

(completely off topic)

for the rule:

       %.gz: %

wouldn't you need something like patsubst? Regardless of your response, could you share more info?

edit, that rule above only makes sense to me if the file name to be gzipped was passed to make. Is that correct? (I'm new to make)

FTA:

> We constantly have to ask ourselves: are we causing any issues or slowdowns on our customers’ websites? [sic]

The GP's noting of irony (is that correct?) seems to be valid.

> If website backgrounds really bother you

While I'm sure you didn't mean it this way, your wording deflects blame from the site's retarded text contrast to the GP (robomartin).

(no snark intended)

Side note: have mercy on your readers and make the text contrast a bit higher.
