It's just someone impersonating a kid to get GitHub stars. I am baffled HackerNews bought it.

How does this really work if a developer wants to pull most recent discussions posted in in X category, having most number of replies when I only have to tables?

I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5, 16 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3) and now on macOS Monterey everything just feels sluggish (especially the animations) and crashes sometimes.

It just feels the OS is designed for different, more recent hardware. I have been using Mac since 2010 and that wasn't the case in the past. I paid about $3,000 for this device. I am not happy and considering Linux/Windows.

Exactly this. I bought iPad Pro to play Fortnite with my nephew, and in less than a month it was removed. Epic broke the agreement, fine remove them from the App Store, but there's no reason to not being able to install the game from an external source except for Apple's greed. I, for one, not going to purchase anything from Apple anymore. I spent over 20k on Apple devices in the last 8 years or so.

And I am saying Bitwarden is not tied to a web browser - it has a desktop client.

You should drop any software that prevents you from changing another unrelated software. In other words, move from LastPass to Bitwarden.

Nonsense. +95% of Python 2 knowledge is transferable to Python 3. Same for PHP 4 to PHP 8.

> Or I could train and train and get my 10 km jogging time down. Or I could get smart and get a bicycle.

What a nonsense statement.
