What is exactly is meant by that?

E.g. regime change in Russia, there is no "line" but people born in Soviet Union are very different from the ones born in modern day Russia

Things missing:

* (weird) scroll animation effects, like paragraphs appearing out of nowhere etc.

* Disqus/other comment section loading (with screwing other elements position)

Cant wait someone to put Simpsons through this

I think the OP point is about e.g. you and me most likely knowing about Kim Kardashian though never having an intention to so to speak :D

Not every, there are at least 22 above the US according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satisfaction_with_Life_Index

For one person choosing adventure there must be at least ten watching him/her closely succeed/fail so in our current superconnected world I would assume not so happy stories are still preserved somewhere.

Found it through this thread and it's great indeed. Worth keeping in mind author did commit suicide before his 50s though :/

> I'll take ~5 less years of living as a geriatric in exchange for being able to better provide for a family.

Kind of a tradeoff you won't expect to be made in 1st world countries...

I want the same for street names I'm driving, is this available? E.g. short bio of the personality the street is named for. Given the track is known it can even select longer/shorter versions depending on how long you're going to stay on the given street :)

One always has a voice simply by choosing the place to work at.

How one knows what is "avant garde of today"?

Is the feds story real or the result of stimulants abuse?

Brilliant :)

Have you just called all the (millions) of religions people insane?

> anti-establishment, anti-consumerist

Can't help but feel there is something insincere in that statement, I mean somehow it seems like exactly the product of consumerist society to me (I mean the attendance cost, cost of setting up you "booth" (?) there), so I wonder if somebody feels the same/gave it more thought.

Yes, all it took me was intense 4 days ski trip where everyone gets up at 6AM and rides until 4PM, wasn't easy but I was surprised I was staying on this schedule effortlessly after coming home for a week or so (I had to switch back due to the work schedule).

Problem is everybody else have to behave similarly, otherwise other cards just take the place of that safe distance.

Work surely was universal, but 2 things are very different now

1. Working outside (as mentioned) just doesn't compare with office job, i.e. it provides physical exercise, fresh air, being close to nature/animals. Now we're simulating all these things with gyms/vacations/zoos (I think the quality of such simulation is out of question?)

2. Work had to be done with your family, now there is no simulation for this in our society at all. And I would guess it was much better option than running as fast as we can (as most corporate people do) at 6:00PM, away from these annoying faces :)

Just curious - who are 'techie decompressionists'? :)

Just a reminder to younger crowd Visual Studio had all this before (packaged in single app hence well-integrated and easy to install) probably for 15 years or longer.

Thank you, you just made me feel so old :)

> (As noted, she doesn’t get everything; once she and the male mate and part, she raises the offspring by herself.)

You can argue of course its genes of good scavenger that get selected for.

Bit surprised why such news keep coming to the front page? I mean is there really much interest in psychology and especially PTSD treatment here or is it about drug use (doubt that, too)?

Also advocated by Bertrand Russell in his In Praise of Idleness http://www.zpub.com/notes/idle.html

Was always a fan of his essay "In Praise of Idleness" [1] but never bothered to check if he had more to say on the subject of happiness in general, interesting read, thank you!

Tl;dr - reading FB makes you jealous so quit and read popular Google search requests instead and be happy about how big a mess everybody else in fact is.

Author calls it 'emotional' :)

Isn't it possible to detect the mixture of cyrillic vs english and so on?

Any idea on what exactly VS Code did better to achieve that performance compared with Atom?
