  I think this is well intentioned but generally bad advice when stated so definitively. Brush your teeth. Don’t let perfection be the enemy of good though and do what you need to do to brush your teeth. Know that it may be better to do it a while after eating but don’t let timing prevent you from doing it.

  I say this as someone who was told this and the overall result was bad.

  If you don’t care enough about the topic to take a few seconds to proofread and format your questions why would I care to decipher them? 12 year olds learn that taking the time to write a first and second draft will improve the final product.

  Definitely some acceptable variation between informal chats and emails being sent to whole teams so know your audience.

  Yeah, no game has done to my heartrate what pubg did. Absolutely the most intense game I’ve ever played. Wish I could play that again for the first time.

  Super Mario World - just a fun game. Lots of little secrets and fun to speed run.

  Titanfall - I played an absurd amount of this one and really wished there was a 3rd one. 1-2 remind me of the pattern seen in trilogys where 1 sets the stage, 2 deviaties pretty far and polarizes fans and then 3 uses the best of both while trying to feel more like 1. (Mario 1-3, Halo 1-3). My favorites in this pattern tend to be 3 so I’m disappointed I never got Titanfall 3.

  Pubg - when it was new. Lost me years ago now but that first 6 months to a year was awesome. So many crazy games and absurd fun.

  The annular one over north America? Because it was annular. While a cool event it is really a specific kind of partial eclipse. Totality is incomparable to even a 99% partial eclipse. I heard it described as the difference between mostly dead VS dead and recently I’ve seen the xkcd comic that does a decent job conveying the difference too.

  Profit/number of employees…

• I don't think Seska had anything to do with ending of Worst Case scenario (Voyager S3E25).
