The Nichijou anime was amazing with a high animation budget and full orchestral score, but it will never get a second season because it wasn't profitable.

>>543 I've partially turned my passion for weeb shit into a passion for the Japanese language itself, it's really interesting, eg when you come across a word like S’๊ that has a direct literal translation with the same meaning in english and yet was arrived at independently centuries ago by people on an island 2000 miles away.

"there's more to life than money" said the person who doesn't live paycheck to paycheck

"money doesn't make you happy" said the person who doesn't realize how awful being poor is because they have enough to pay the bills and they even have money saved up and disposable income

"just work hard and get a better job" said the person who got a cushy job due to nepotism

"being homeless must be easy, it'd be nice to have nothing to do" said the idiot who doesn't realize how difficult homelessness is and how a lot of homeless people actually have jobs

"poor people are poor because we can't all be doctors" said the person who grew up in an area with adequate funding for public education and who doesn't realize how public infrastructure dictates how successful someone will be

"I'm smarter and more talented and that's why I deserve to make more than other people" said the person whose parents paid for their books and tutors and college tuition while other people had to drop out to help their parents make ends meet

I'm not saying you have to give all your money away to poor people, but have some perspective and understand that life is very difficult for some people and we don't all have the same experiences or opportunities in life

If the audience is non-technical, I either use plaintext (treated as plaintext) or LaTeX, with plaintext preferred. This will ensure that documentation is either simple enough that it can be read quickly, or detailed enough to be reassuring.

IMHO, the benefits of almost-plaintext formats are extremely slight, and overshadowed by the threat that it might get overcomplicated to the point that it requires a browser to view.

If the audience is technical, typing "man foo" is more direct than searching the web for "foo documentation -bar -baz" or hunting through /usr/share for a README: the brain has to go through fewer context switches between "How do I work the damn thing again" and "I am now learning how to work the damn thing". mdoc.samples(7) is helpful.

I am slightly serious about the autotools documentation, though, it's not like it's great and there are corner cases it won't help you with, but it probably tells what you want from an 80-20 perspective if only you could actually not have navigation issues in the way and if only it weren't a "do it this way or weird shit will happen" kind of suite.

I use Dash for a lot of near-instant offline reference searches these days, though curiously I still use the terminal for manpages. I guess it's not broken....

I wonder how well things would go if normal help files were just as easily searchable, but so much UX work has gone in the direction of "normies don't think they need manuals, suck at ctrl+f, and most of the ones they've looked at weren't helpful at all anyway", which isn't really wrong, but does lead to its own set of anti-patterns like the hamburger menu and walled garden learned helplessness.

Lately I've found that I really want to re-learn all the stuff I was "supposed" to learn in college and put it all in Anki. Is it productive immediately? No, quite the opposite. But I hope that such a solid grasp on the fundamentals will take me really far in programming what I want.

Thanks friends, I ended up just picking asciidoc before checking back here, just to pick something (and to pick something other than monoculturedown) rather than shave yaks or invent myself a set of style conventions.
I was actually conscious that it should look nice as plaintext, so it's more like I just picked asciidoc for syntax highlighting as a basic sanity check and for future probable conversion to HTML/man/pdf/etc.

I'll keep >>569 in mind, especially remembering all the API docs I've had to endure that are just a set of data structures and alphabetically-sorted methods for converting between them, resulting in frustrating journeys back and forth over 6 pages of 6 screens each.

I wish I could've grown up in the age of MMOs that had really hardcore death mechanics and more open PvP, like Ultima Online () . I could still technically play it today, but it's basically on life support at this point, with very few players, so it's not the same. Other MMOs like Tibia had weird broken game mechanics, like there was an NPC that would attack you if you swore around it, so some people would trick another player into swearing next to them and then they'd die and the other player could take their items that were dropped on death. And you de-leveled, I think. Nowadays, MMOs are more casual, and if you die, it's just a setback of like 5 minutes or something. But those hardcore and abusable game mechanics (which were sometimes unintentional) were what made it fun. There was another Tibia thing where you could lure a high level monster into a safe area and then it'd aggro on low level players and kill them. Or you could block someone from leaving a certain area, and there was this one place in particular where someone would trick a player into going into a dangerous place by dropping a valuable item there, and then the player would go through and then the scammer player would block them, and then the victim player would be within aggro range of a dangerous monster that would kill them and they'd be unable to escape because of the other player blocking them (and in Tibia you couldn't just clip through other players).

But I feel like hardcore death mechanics in online games, and MMOs in general, are both kind of dying.

( E-E) yeah, ted sat in the woods for 15 years jerking off over theory and ideology and had a final score of like 4 because he used bombs made of twigs and pinecones. McVeigh was retaliating against a physical, tangible injustice and got 200 in a single day. Nothing alike at all.

Ted was a thinker, not focused on killing people. He made a lot of criticisms about modern life and technology. If you read his manifesto you'd know he only did the bombings to get national attention for his ideas about society. McVeigh just wanted to kill people, and that's what he did.

Some people actually care about issues that affect their lives.

Don't act like everyone else is just a carbon copy of you. And don't pretend that you know so much more than everyone else. It's like sour grapes but you're telling yourself that you're too good to get involved in politics. A very naive stance to take.

A lot of hot air. If anything it's you trying to take a moral superiority saying it's naïve not to be interested. I don't care if you talk about it, or sports, or your diet, or converting to Haruhism, or cars, or Magic: The Gathering or any other pointless shit, but don't pretend any of it is of any importance here
