You will notice your body slowing down soon. It might not be the second you turn 30, but almost definitely by 32.

If you want kids there’s a few things to consider.

1. Graduate highschool then get married before kids.
2. Kids are physically easier when you’re younger.
3. No one is ever really ready for kids, but you should have some level of financial stability and be prepared to have significantly less freedom.

Be purposeful in what you spend money on. You don’t need the best of everything, especially when starting a new hobby. You can find someone spending absurd amounts on anything, but no one can do that on everything.

There’s also a huge difference between beef cows and dairy cows.

Most people aren’t ever really exposed to nature. You can have a cuddly dairy cow, but that’s not universal. Most encounters people have are going to be with animals that are docile and used to human interactions.

Also it is a little counter intuitive at first. Predators will retreat from a fight of it’s not worth the effort. Prey doesn’t retreat once the fight starts, because it’s literally life or death for them.

A large part of wine tasting is bullshit, but different styles are definitely different.

US IP rights are only a good example of a bad example.

He’s been dead for 80 years, that’s plenty long enough for anyone’s feelings to not matter.

It’s not even the first lizard based medicine. There was also Byetta, which was based on gila monster saliva. It’s a diabetes drug that was one of the first to also be useful for weight loss.

The dinosaur with the most horns still has the most horns. Present tense is acceptable in reference to the record.

Ads are extremely effective in aggregate though it’s difficult to impossible to assign value to any individual ad. Targeted ads are popular because they are more directly attributable to purchases, but it’s also likely that other ads led you towards that decision as well.

There’s levels to it. True quality isn’t worth it, absolute garbage costs a lot though. Some level that mostly works is the sweet spot.

Leaders that don’t take leave is a common warning side of fraud happening.

Passing a driving test in the US is usually one of the first accomplishments of becoming an adult, which makes it notable, but not necessarily big.

This is why I’m not a fan of REST, the whole as possible part is meaningless. It could be an api that’s 99% REST with a few well thought out methods for common actions that aren’t quite REST, or it could be a mess of an api that uses PUT occasionally.

Self documenting at an application api level is not really possible. What I’d rather have is consistency and predictability, which is impossible in a REST as possible system.

There’s also value in treating http as just a transport later. It can give you clear boundaries, 200 the app processed the request, anything else the app didn’t process it.

Yes most things are crud if you zoom out enough that doesn’t mean REST is just fine. The scope is larger now, the states are more complex and interrelated, relationships are more complex, data privacy laws can affect the physical implementation. REST also has a lot of baggage that leads to excessive bike shedding, or refusal to allow useful endpoints that aren’t sufficiently restful. Proponents also tend to be more concerned with the purity of the api than the usability and effectiveness of it

Yes I’d rather have a self defined standard that accurately covers the scope of an application and it’s use cases than stretch an old standard design for basic hierarchical text docs to work for a modern application.

The people that decide which rules are important or not when designing a “REST” api are generally insufferable as well.

I’d rather see this than actual rest or the more popular use the bits of rest that are convenient.

A large part is fear of rejection and you are paying for an AI girlfriend anyway, it gets pretty blurry.
