Ask yourself, why is there a cap on the amount of reputation you can earn per day on Stack Overflow? Sometimes, the solution is less Stack Overflow and more actual work at your job.

What if.. and I am just spitballing here.. the solution was *LESS* Facebook?

All proposed solutions from Facebook tend to inevitably resemble "the solution is more Facebook"

"I've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas!"

@Pekkanikolaus it isn't always, though! It is true that Trump has kind of broken Twitter though.

At some point, you have managed to deliver unlimited misery intake as a service which I found.. deeply unhealthy. Kind of like smoking?

I will not be writing any thinkpieces on this (you're welcome btw) but one of the breaking points for me with Twitter last year was someone RTing someone else calling Chelsea Manning "not a person" and the resulting people screaming at each other for days

I used to think comparing social media to "smoking is bad for your health" was ridiculous.. but lately I am not so sure https://t.co/XzDqc00wdK

Yes, in case you were wondering, I am all about bribing children into liking me, and I ain't even sorry

Yesterday I promised a random kid a random present, and the second he saw me today the look on his face was possibly the best feeling I have had in a week

Those "mongodb is webscale" jokes are still quite funny to me, for serious

I'd also add that on small subreddits downvotes are a profoundly bad idea, but of course they are on by default

it is amazing how bad the moment to moment reddit user experience is, today, in 2018

I kind of wish I could write a rule for my home where anything I haven't actually touched / used in two years would disappear from my life forever

I would also add that being born today, rather than 50, 100, 200, 500 years ago is also effectively winning a lottery.
