- Comment on if you've had or have anger issues, how did you become a better human? 2 weeks ago:
Sometimes it helps to feel bad for someone instead of being angry at them. I think of Gandalf’s quote from LOTR:
“Frodo: ‘It’s a pity Bilbo didn’t kill Gollum when he had the chance.’
Gandalf: 'Pity? It’s pity that stayed Bilbo’s hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment.” - Comment on We got several more inches of snow last night after getting over seven a few days ago. I went to my local newspaper's website to find out if there was anything I should know. This was their top story. 2 weeks ago:

- Comment on What administrative powers exist among workspaces in the software industry and why? 3 weeks ago:
From an enterprise security perspective you want to operate with a least privilege model. For developers who need admin access this is typically granted through some just-in-time temporary elevation process, but many developers who are writing code and pushing builds through a devops CICD pipeline may not need admin to do their jobs.
- Comment on what works for you to let go? 4 weeks ago:
Sometimes it helps to feel bad for the person rather than get angry. As Gandalf said in the LOTR:
“Frodo: ‘It’s a pity Bilbo didn’t kill Gollum when he had the chance.’
Gandalf: 'Pity? It’s pity that stayed Bilbo’s hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment.”Remember that plumber earns his livelihood on his professional reputation. If he cannot keep an appointment, he is failing at his career.

In the complex plane each of these vectors have magnitude 1 and the distance between them is square root of two as you would expect. In the real plane the imaginary part has a magnitude of zero and this is not a triangle but a line. No laws are broken here.
- Comment on Has anyone ever come up with what a Palestinian State would look like without wiping Israel of the map? If so have both sides ever been presented the offer? If not why? 2 months ago:
It is exactly what happened with the settlement of native american lands in the US. Settlers move into land given by treaty to the Indians, when trouble occurs the military is sent in and the Indians are inevitably ejected from their lands.

You should be continually contributing over time allowing you to benefit from the dips by buying low. This offsets the losses and is called dollar cost averaging,

The trick here is to use incognito mode while logged out to avoid being put in a filter bubble.
