instead of rebooting the xmen into the mcu with yet another series of big budget ensemble cast movies that wont be able to give each character the needed focus, why not a game of thrones style tv series instead?

O5 X-Men, except instead of Bobby Drake, we get Elsa Arindelle. The rest of the X-Men timeline proceeds the same way, including Elsa/Icewoman realizing she’s gay

Very humbling that as i was dropping out of #MTGSeattle, Kai Budde, who’s about the same age as me and started playing #MTG around the same time, made top 4 of the Mythic Championship, after having been semiretired for almost a decade!

It’s okay to mess up. Don’t dwell on it, learn what you can, and move on

Sigh. Dropped out of the #mtgseattle main event at 1-3. D: Deck didnt even want to play this time gave me 15 lands drawn in one game. Sad face

Damn it I forgot my own rules!

Posted on r/Seattle: A couple of tourist questions
Hi,
I’ll be visiting Seattle for a few days later this month, a couple of questions, possibly noobish:
- I want to visit the museum of pop culture, but due to logistics and scheduling, I can only do this during a time when I need to be bringing around a small piece of luggage (on wheels), in addition to my backpack. Will they let me into the museum with the luggage? Or is it not a good idea to try this?
- my flight out of SeaTac is Southwest at 5am on a Tuesday. I plan to be at the airport maybe 9pm-10pm the night before, will they let me check in my luggage that early so that I can just hang out/sleep near the gate? (I guess this isn’t really a Seattle-specific question, but more of I’m not sure if a US airport will let me do this. Where I’m from they typically won’t let me check baggage more than 3 hours before my flight)
Thanks!

Unfortunately I’m staying at an Airbnb, and the host has said they will be unable to store my luggage for me outside of my stay

I’m going to spoil it for you because it’s so damn important.
Microsoft did a scientific study - based on MS Vista code and found that the best predictor of bugs was:
ORGANIZATIONAL COMPLEXITY
More people = worse code
More departments = worse code
Higher turnover = worse code

one of the nicest things you can do for someone, i think, is let them get unapologetically excited about something they’re passionate about, ask them engaging questions, show them that you’re listening, and let them go on for as long as they want

We had a NES, my parents bought it when my mom’s work sponsored a US trip for them. IDK what the price was. Problematic lang was that NES games were harder and more expensive to buy locally, and all your friends had Famicoms so mahirap ang gamesharing. Yung mga bootleg collections pati na “1000 in 1” etc available only as Famicom cartridges. Luckily, nagkaron ng binebenta na “Honeybee” adapter that let you use Famicom cartridges in a NES. I played a lot of the NES classics, all the legit Marios (there some random BS bootleg “Super Mario 4” that sometimes appeared), Castlevanias, Legend of Zelda (I had to borrow a NES original for this one, mahirap maghanap ng original Famicom cartridge kasi the cart needed its own battery for saving), Contra 1 and 2, Adventure Island etc etc. Kahit yung mga small games na nasa mga 16-in-1/100-in-1/etc like Popeye, Baseball, etc naging expert din ako lol. Pag bata ka madami kang time e

I envy people who, lying in bed at 3am, are able to avoid thinking about a work problem that they had all day. i need that level of compartmentalization apparently, my brain can only be satisfied by me getting up and typing out my thoughts and sending them out lol

Repost from fulhack:
I have two methods for estimating project size:
(a) break things down into subprojects, estimate them, add it up
(b) gut feeling estimate based on how nervous i feel about unexpected risks
So far (b) is vastly more accurate for any project more than a few weeks

Ugh. Google requires Android apps to have 64 bit variants by Aug 1, but I’m out of the country for 5 weeks between then and now and a React Native app requires upgrading to RN 0.59 to do this, wc is nontrivial. Mobile app devt is so annoying
