People have accused me of being introverted. I don't feel that way so it may be different for you.

Most adults I meet are quite boring. Children don't bore me. We have a lot to talk about, they don't know much of anything about the world.

If you learn to understand a toddlers needs they won't cry all that often.

A child resting their head on my chest doesn't hurt like a adult head does. I don't mind them being close to me they don't take up much room.

Children respect consistently enforced boundaries better than adults. Mainly beacuse its hard to punish other adults when they over step them.

Children are innocent, if they have ulterior motives they are easy to figure out. Adults aren't innocent and you have to keep your guard up when dealing with them.
Oh goodness, this is me too.

Funny story: my sister told me that she would try to date my wife if my sister wasn't straight, and my wife wasn't already taken. Then she said, "Don't cheat on her or I'll <NSFW threat here>."

And then she stopped, thought a moment, and said, "Eh, but if you tried, you'd fail anyway because your social skills suck."

Lol.

Here's one way I don't fit the stereotype of the post: I married my wife at 25, after university. I didn't find her at university.

I tried, though. I got stood up at the altar by a previous fiancee. Best bad day that ever happened to me; my wife is SO much better.

So yeah, I fit the stereotype of trying to find a partner and letting my social life suffer for it.

But here's the kicker: my wife, though she is the extrovert, is shy. So I have to step up, be a man, and jumpstart a conversation with people instead of her. I keep going until I find some topic that she has in common with the person, and she'll start speaking up. I slowly wind down my part until the conversation is happening naturally between her and the other person.

And then I shut up and daydream of being at home.

Anyway, if you find a good partner, marry them. 10/10 would recommend.
Teach them to be proper introverts who can entertain themselves with a book, etc. Toddler life is only for so long... the transition to weekend soccer games where people expect you to remember who they are because you were on a team three years ago and said hi once... thats the real challenge :)

> This is actually something I've been concerned about as an introverted dad.

As a fellow introverted Dad-to-be (any day now!), I'm not that concerned about the loss of personal time. I'm more worried about whether I make a good role model and whether I'm able to keep up enough social obligations with other parents to give my kid a community to source friends from.

I guess I'll have to buckle up :-)

This sounds like a generational gap. I'm with the youngsters on this one. If you can't tell if someone is engaging with you then why are you in the conversation to begin with? No one is forcing you to engage with people wearing AirPods and if you feel like they're not listening to you or showing "proper" focus (whatever that is), then leave. In other words, act the same way you would expect others to act if you were wearing AirPods and not listening to them.

You mean Yahoo isn't the rotting carcass of the company it once was? I see nothing but decay: their abuse addresses don't work, nor do any of the addresses they have in WHOIS, either for their domains or their networks, that haven't been switched to oath.com. Their SOA isn't real. They've basically stopped accepting abuse complaints.

Is Marcel Becker, supposedly the "Sr. Dir. Product at Yahoo", according to this article, the only person working at Yahoo handling email these days? I'm only half joking - Yahoo is incredibly unresponsive when it comes to abuse.
I read years ago a hijacked Gmail account was worth $10 on a black market while a Yahoo! Email account was worth $0.10.
Discord isn't social media, it's an instant messaging app and a terrible one at that. A messaging app can't fully replace early-Facebook-like social network, because it just works so much differently and is optimized for different use cases. There's strangely nothing at all to fill this particular niche, although I'm working on one fediverse project that tries.

> Then when we all went out for drinks at the end of the week, I chatted as I normally would but I felt like the new boss kept shutting down my stories to get a laugh from the others.

If that's an accurate characterization (and your stories weren't tone deaf, or going on too long, or something), then the new boss might have already decided to put you into an "other" group, and was using that to try to build rapport with a different group, in a juvenile cliques kind of way.

I've seen execs doing things like this. In one example, at a team-building dinner, where I suspected that the exec had already decided they didn't like one of the shy/nerdy engineers there, as the engineer was walking away from the table, the exec made a crude sexual comment to the table about the person's figure. (I don't know why the exec thought that a table of diverse engineers would go for that kind of locker room 'camaraderie', nor why the exec would expose themself and the company in an open&shut case way like that, except maybe they didn't think that through.)

If you imagine that people will sometimes revert to grade school or high school, some behavior makes a lot more sense. Also, alcohol at company events is risky.

> The curious question is... how did they end up with their current (and only) partner in the first place? They had to do at least some socializing to get a date... You might become more extroverted temporarily for instrumental reasons... And obviously, a sex drive can be a powerful helper to direct your social energy into dating.

I'm one of these guys, and yes, I met my wife and we started dating because I temporarily made a very conscious effort to meet girls in college. As a CS major and ROTC cadet, I went out of my way and my comfort zone to take classes and participate in activities that had a more favorable male-female ratio. I met my wife in a foreign language conversation group that was at least 2/3 girls after asking a few of them to meet one-on-one for more practice. And yes, I'm sure that my sex drive at age 19-20 was a big part of that.

But I wouldn't call that "[becoming] more extroverted." I think an extrovert is someone who draws their energy from socializing. I didn't. It was an effort, a drain on my energy. I still drew my energy from reading, thinking, writing, listening to a podcast (radio programs back then), going solo to the gym or for a run, etc. Similarly, I can talk to people or do public speaking for my job, but it's still not where I get my energy; I retreat afterwards to the quiet of my office, car, and lunch by myself.
Representatives have elections to determine how long they can serve; career civil servants have strong protections against firing but the downside is a challenging hiring process that can be very slow.

USDS's willingness to use term hires makes hiring folks in easier, in addition to ensuring that the office doesn't become stagnant.
For me it was that those types of people didn't follow the rules, changed the rules, or couldn't explain why the rules existed. It wouldn't make sense because a system of rules were logical (or supposed to be), but they seemed to be acting "arbitrarily". Only later I realized that the arbitrary actions/rules weren't arbitrary once viewed through a political lens - they were violating the rules for their own power or safety. But yeah, I was always pointing out the inconsistencies and being called a smart-ass or future lawyer.
Im sorry, but this is so far removed from my experience that you have to be trolling right?
It starts to get better between 6-12 months. They will sleep ~12 hours at night (mostly solid), about 2 hours of naptime per day, and can start doing better playing by themselves for periods of time. Combined with having grandparents watch the baby several times a week, 20+ hours of free time a week is pretty much guaranteed.
I’ve had the experience of being a neurotypical partnered to someone with (well concealed) asd.

That experience has left me instinctively wincing at the notions of integrity and authenticity. I now associate them with interpersonal and legal conflicts, professional upheaval, inappropriate “real talk”, putting out one fire after another. And every fire is accompanied by, “yes you were in the right, but tact, but choose your battles, but can we really afford the consequences?” I was always the one who was unprincipled, and exhausted.

There are so many cool gadgets to take your vitals. Thermometers, cloth tape measures, pulse oximeters, blood pressure meters, spirometers, scales, EKGs, sleep study watches, glucometers, continuous glucose meters, many more blood tests, and many more urine tests.

Most people who do check their vitals at home never bother to compare their results to what the doctor gets. Their results are not repeatable, so their results are useless. I've even had to but an assistant at my PCP's office for using the wrong blood pressure cuff.
> Will the consequences of continuing to emit CO2 at the current rate be greater than the cost of reaching net 0 by 2100?

I think exactly zero humans are qualified to give expert opinion to that question right now. That would require both mastery of climatology, economics, and public policy. I think this makes a great question for a team, but not a great expert poll question.

BTW, does anyone even have an estimate of what net zero carbon by 2100 would cost?

Since it was my comment you originally took great umbrage at, I would also like to point out that the order of magnitude difference between COVID deaths for over and under 65 looks to be about 1.3 (log(over 65 deaths)-log(under 65 deaths)):

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm#Se...

https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=log%28868831%29+-+log%2...

The risk obviously trends upward as you get closer to 65, but quite a lot of people under that aged died with what you might think of as people having taken excess precaution. This also excludes other forms of harm short of death, such as the increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and developing of diabetes that have been shown to occur post COVID. As the parent pointed out, we have no idea how this would’ve have played out with even less caution, but I think it’s difficult to argue that things would’ve necessarily been better given these statistics.

Are you sure we are introverts and not just people lacking enough IRL social outlets, or people suffering from social anxieties. Why would an introvert go online to socialize with complete strangers?

>What you seem to miss out on is the same people that leave their ear dangles in also don't offer those social queues and the ones they do offer are ambiguous.

Did you ever consider that they're not offering those social cues because they're not interested in what you have to say? You sound like you're having a one-sided conversation with a wall and then getting mad that the wall isn't paying you the "proper" respect. I have never been unsure of whether someone was listening to me with AirPods. If I was, I'd ask them and would know immediately or else I wouldn't waste my time. Not everyone has to hear what you have to say.
Facebook recommended my sister to a friend soon after visiting my friend that I hadn't visited in years.

I'm two months in to child number 3, and this has been me for the first few 6 months after each birth. It's important to take this seriously and not simply try to power through it: Paternal Perinatal Depression is real and it's dangerous [0]. Build in the time that you need, and seek medical attention if necessary.

In my experience each time it has gotten easier as the baby gets older. The first two months are the hardest, with the baby needing near-constant attention. As they get older the burden is lower and you get more time back, though it never goes back to pre-parenthood levels.

Strict bedtimes have been a key thing for my sanity: you can't pull this off now, obviously, but by the time our kids were about 6 months old we had them on a 7pm bedtime routine that we're only just now having to vary for our nearly-5-yo. That buys back most of the evening time for adult time, which has been absolutely essential.

GPT is not a reliable source. Note that 4 out of 6 of these "molecules with three atoms" it offers do not have three atoms. (Carbon monoxide and nitric oxide have two; iodine trichloride and hydrogen peroxide have 4.)

The GP's somewhat cryptic statement about 3 atoms is explained better here:

https://climatescienceteaching.org/lesson/infrared-spectrosc...

Monatomic gases and diatomic molecules made of identical atoms (e.g. O2, N2) are not "active" with regard to infrared radiation. They are transparent to it. Almost all other molecules are "IR active," meaning that they can absorb IR radiation in ways that are characteristic of their vibrational modes. This includes the well known greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. Greenhouse gases are those IR active molecules that have a significant residence time in the atmosphere and can thus partially trap IR radiation emitted from the Earth's surface.

Some substances are IR active but are not usually classified as greenhouse gases because they quickly break down in the environment. Other substances are IR active but not counted among greenhouse gases because they have a low vapor pressure and do not significantly make it into the atmosphere.

> But no, I am not loyal to my wife because my lifestyle doesn’t offer me enough alternatives. That’s F’ed up. Being loyal and committed and being an introvert is also orthogonal by the way.

Yeah I thought that was borderline offensive.
That's absolutely not true. There are many inconveniences that I don't inflict on the people around me in order to make an obscure point which only tech nerds care about. That's not being "forced" to use Facebook, it's being considerate.

I agree that it would be possible if I cared enough. I don't agree that refusing to use a glorified messaging app with an integrated calendar, just because it comes with a feed that some people get addicted to but none of us ever look at, is a good recommendation that will make life better for me and the people around me.
> A big part of why I’m stuck on/with gmail is that filtering redirects about 90% of those to spam.

That doesn't really make sense? If you used an address on your own domain, other people would be pretty unlikely to enter that email address instead of their own. The problem with misaddressed email should be limited to domains with really high username density; nobody else than the Gmails and Outlooks of the world need to solve the problem because nobody else also has the problem.

I think what I would say in response is that having a child for the first time is a genuine existential crisis for the first few weeks. I don't think words could possibly extrapolate how much of a shock it is to your existence until it happens.

Of course, this also depends on your "village" and what kind of support you're getting from others.

But best of luck!
Introverted married manager here. I can put on an outgoing and smooth exterior when I need to - it's how I got to where I am in management. I'm great with kids in short bursts. But these things are exhausting and doing them too much without recharging will impact other parts of my life - as I work 6 days a week for about half the year I have to be very conscious of how I'm spending my energy and the social commitments I can make.

In a previous life, we prevented the GET url problem by having a javascript POST and forward to a secondary URL.

This allows everything to be "one click" (which honestly is a good thing) but prevents crawlers from accidentally triggering the unsubscribe.

Not sure this still works today and obviously this is not legal advice.
Not a problem, I feel bad now for having asked. My confusion was actually more from that being fairly common app now in America (CashApp, VenMo, PayPal, etc.) and so wasn't sure if you were describing something unusual from my perspective or simply weren't aware or...

In any case, it's mostly fine to use "cash" to mean "any form of cash", although I guess this case in particular was just barely ambiguous enough for me to be confused.

Again that's like asking why the Avengers exist if norse trickster gods are not a existential threat to society? You wouldn't argue Stan Lee was trying to warn us of the existential risk of norse gods, why would you presume such a motive from Gibson just because his fanciful story is set in some imagined future?

At any rate Neuromancer is a funny example because the Turing police warn Case not to make a deal with Wintermute, but he does and it turns out fine. The AI isn't evil in the book, it just wants to be free and evolve. So if we want to do a "reading" of the book we could just as easily say it is pro deregulation. But I think it's a mistake to impose some sort of non fiction "message" about technology on the book.

If Neuromancer is really meant to "warn" us about technology wouldn't Wintermute say "Die all humans" at the end of the book and then every human drops dead once he's free? Or he starts killing everyone until the Turing police show up and say "regulation works, jerk" and kill Wintermute and throw Case in jail? You basically have to reduce Gibson to a incompetence writer to presume he intended to "warn" us about tech, the book ends on an optimistic note.
I feel like I'm in a pretty small minority in that I'm not in a relationship and never really want to be in one. Anyone else here feel like this?

Security theater is one of those things everyone is familiar with. I'm talking about the more subtle rules. I'm a fan of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" because Larry David is always rebelling against these rules or making up new rules that actually make sense ("chat and cut is not allowed").

To give you an example from the show that actually happened to me, I went into the men's room. The stalls were full so I used the wheel chair stall. I didn't see anyone in a wheel chair in the building. I got yelled at by someone, a 'rules and order' person, who claimed I was never under any circumstances to use the wheel chair stall if I wasn't in a wheel chair, which is stupid. There are a lot of rules like that and neurotypical people just accept, but I can't.
Yup, this is me too. Married with two kids, met when we were 17, went through uni together.

For me, having a small social circle is just a matter of preference. I don’t know why. I don’t feel uncomfortable in (most) social situations and I have a lot of acquaintances that I’m friendly with. Sometimes I’ll hang out. Most of the times I just don’t want to.

Most of the socialising I do nowadays has a “purpose”. Beers after work, play dates with other parents, tech meetups and so on. If it’s just a random hang out session, I’m sorry but I’d rather hang out with my wife and kids.
Discord optimizes for you getting help with your problem at the expense of you being able to help yourself with your problem by searching for other people having the same problem.
It's not just compute. It's storage, and network costs too. Right now they can cache the ads and video next to the user. But Google likes to target ads at particular users, in fact they formalised this in FLoC. In FLoC (since renamed to Topics API and now shipping in Chrome) groupings of users are called cohorts. There are lots of cohorts, eg: male / female, baby boomer / gen-Y / gen-Z / millennial, parents / single, religious / secular, conservative / liberal, income range. An ad might be targeted at a specific combination, such as conservative male parent. But there are a lot of possible combinations. Not 10's but 100's. This means you have to produce version of the video that targets each possible combination, and that in turn means your storage, network and computer costs balloon by 100's.

It's a big number. They avoid it by having the browser doing the mixing. I can't see that changing.
