Might be getting wooshed but Slurms was voiced by David Herman

Smurfing is when a player has a secondary account so they can play against/with lower ranked players. Imagine a chess grand master putting on a disguise and going to a beginners chess tournament

I really loved the reveal at the end. I was waiting for some big issue to be revealed or something but nope, he was just trying to figure out how to organize his books

Have you considered that you may be turning into a vampire?

Nah it's so you can see if your enemies are hiding anything

I mean I remember taking biology that went over reproductive anatomy in 6th grade. I feel like gender identity isn't any more mature of a topic than penises and vaginas. Maybe my school was an outlier though? Either way I think letting kids who might not feel comfortable with their gender know that their feelings are valid is important enough to warrant mentioning in elementary school

I mean, you can add their user agent to the robots file but the crawler could just change their user agent or even ignore the robots file if the server isn't filtering requests by user agent

So just to be clear, WHEN HE WAS PRESIDENT, he held rallies all over the country and then hasn't paid for the expenses the cities incurred due to staffing etc?? I wonder if he or his campaign will even respond to this. It's not like these are allegations, the cities LITERALLY have a bill and have tried to get it paid multiple times

That one's hard for me to read and I'm not even dyslexic!

I blame the rise of frameworks, libraries, and IDEs. It’s easier for someone who knows nothing to throw some software together and ship it.

I very much disagree with this. Yes to an extent you don't need to know as much as you might have in the past but if we had to constantly reinvent the wheel, I don't think we would have nearly as many people entering/remaining in this field. Additionally well written frameworks and libraries can actually make your code safer since you don't have to reinvent the wheel and discover the pitfalls all over again. IDEs are also a net positive IMO. Errors next to the line of code that caused them, breakpoints, interactive debugging. These are all things I personally would find hard to live without. Necessities? Technically no. But good god do I not want to have to read build output unless necessary.
