Shit, even going from a semi active lifestyle to a 9-5 office job will add a belly if you’re not hitting the gym.

Only if you keep eating as you did before. People don’t change their diets as they get older. They seem unaware / not caring that the belly will come otherwise.

I think it’s partly just being OK with getting fat. If you are not attractive anymore anyway because of age, may as well enjoy whatever food you like. And if you are in a relationship, both partners are probably OK with looking not so great anymore as they age.

I’m not sure why this comment is so popular. If you travel, you see many countries on the planet where all women wear makeup all the time.

No I drive fast enough to never have cars behind me. :) So Im actually not part of the problem the thread was discussing, with drivers just driving the same speed in the left lane. That is really frustrating when people do that.

I would go as far as saying that this behavior of driving faster in the left lane helps to make traffic flow a lot better and avoid congestion. But it’s not legal.

I dont agree, I use the left lane frequently to not have a car in front of me. Increases visibility and security a lot, and just gives a nice feeling of not being blocked.

I do drive a bit faster than cars in the right lane almost always though.

Yes of course. But have you noticed how everyone assumes that men are staring and making women feel uncomfortable despite nothing like that was expressed?

I’ve also seen jokes about dicks that everyone seem to think is funny, but when someone mentions actual attraction, the thread goes nuts. :)

Nobody said staring. :)

Lol, it’s just not politically correct these days. :)

Human attraction is at the core of human existence and I think it’s silly to act like it doesn’t exist every day.

This is how you enjoy life. Make people happy being around you, and they do the same for you.

Men looking at women are creeps? Guess im a creep. :)

I’m also trying hard to avoid being in the office, even taking pay cuts for it. I can’t sit in a damn office and write code. The stress from trying to block out people moving and talking is exhausting.

A few, but I generally don’t look at usernames.

A more cynical take is that they understand very well, but are being compensated by big tech for looking the other way.

Good people often can’t comprehend how evil people work, and they say “everyone makes mistakes”, or “they don’t understand fully”. Because we want to think that everyone is mostly good.

It’s not like that. :/

C++ is… I got nothing.

Sure, if we didn’t have the need to procreate or the need for a life companion, the computer would be the perfect partner.

But since we are not machines quite yet…

Sitting ball is great for core strength. You balance on it all day and have to keep your back straight. Really works.

Sudo will report you :)

The majority of 25 year olds I know would not mind being with an 18 year old. Why pretend it’s not like that?

Calling the 18 year olds children is just trying to make it sound like it wouldnt matter of they are 14 or 18. It matters very much to any normal person.

If you don’t believe me, ask any 18 year old girl who wears tight clothes, what age are the guys looking at her body when she walks around? And then you don’t have to trust me.

It’s biology, you can’t change that with political correctness…

It’s horrible for the body. Don’t understand why people eat it, and on white bread sandwiches!!

May as well sign up for fat camp discounts.

Healthy breakfast is tea, oatmeal porridge, greek yoghurt, some fruits, eggs, vegetables. If you are going to eat bread, pick ones with dark bread and fibers.

I really like the age of discovery description. Every web site was different and there was web design web sites where designers tried to impress eachother and really push what was possible to do.

There was hardly any corporations on the web. There was some ads in the beginning but ironically enough, Google built their empire on having a clean search page without ads, which made people flock to them.

See where we are now…

I still have the same mindset though. I build open source projects and use mostly open source technologies. I’m not interested in making money from any of that. Money is from work, not from passion.

It’s just really hard. I would put it up there as one of the most challenging things we do in life. It can be absolutely soul destroying to be rejected.
