Subreply used to have likes, but private saves and saved count increased the content quality.

I like this. I used Twitter likes as a way to save stuff mostly. The side effect where I started to care about how many likes I was getting led to unwanted psychological baggage.

It's fucked up to say, but 2020 was probably the best year of my life. I got married and went full-time as a software developer.

what are some options excluding TypeScript and Flow for type-checking a Node project?
đī¸ Brandon Pittman
You could write it in Reason and output JS. :)

I am super impressed by Mailbrew. Letting me almost ditch Twitter and still keep up to date with stuff.

gaming is probably a little different, because there is such a wide range of options. Easy to come back and find something you like.
đī¸ Brandon Pittman
Yeah, that's definitely true. The wrestling thing was just reliving my childhood.

#TOTD This is a question that a colleague asked me a couple years ago, and it just keeps coming back to me. If one becomes informed about the damage that our meat consumption is causing on the planet, does it become immoral for one to consume meat? Say, if you watch a couple documentaries on Netflix and continue consuming meat, does that make you a bad person? I don't really have an answer. I think about it every time I eat a burger.
đī¸ Brandon Pittman
Instead of just using eating choice cuts, try eating nose to tail. Also, treat meat like it used to be treated--a luxury. Our ability to get meat any time without having to hunt it has screwed up a lot.

I stopped playing video games for a couple years, sometimes it's just a phase. You don't have to love something forever to love it at all.
đī¸ Brandon Pittman
I kinda got back into retro wrestling. Tried watching new stuff but it wasn't the same. Lapsed out of gaming for a bit too but came back to it.

Does the action in movies being scripted make them less enjoyable for you?

There are three possible situations when editing a reply that contains a mention: changing the mention, deleting it or keeping it the same. I implemented all of them for Subreply. We can edit everything now.

Faced a fear today: I went to the gym for the first time since March. It wasn't as bad as I expected. Working out with a mask isn't great, but it's not awful. I was wearing a disposable one...I don't think I would have made it in a re-usable one.
đī¸ Brandon Pittman
I'd recommend body weight exercises at home. Cheaper and no need to mask up.

UV light and and a vacuum will reduce the population. A water bed will do too plus take you back to the 80's

Bed vacuums are a pretty common thing here in Japan.

I was wondering why I stopped watching pro wrestling and it finally dawned on me that I stopped right around the time I got my first girlfriend.

Correlation is not causation! (But you're probably right -- having a life moves you away from adolescent fantasies of power)
