His entire OG staff is evaporating and he’s letting them rip pieces off the boat they helped him build to do so. I honestly wish I could never see this dude’s face or hear his voice again, but his slop is so ubiquitous it’s impossible to escape. But Zip Tie Tech is a fun channel that’s come from the ashes of LTTs reputation.

A person who posted after you is using 14B and got the correct answer.

You’ve moved my opinion on this definitely, I have never been inside that world, but I engage with it all the time because of my work. Rather than being something strange and wrong, it’s just a thing that works, and that’s why you guys adopt it. Like rubber duck programming.

Oh no, I’m the first person who told you this behavior is weird huh. I’m sorry.

Sure, I might even give those people some grace over the people who use it cause they want to be Jared Leto, or one of Jared Leto’s sex cult friends in the book. It’s actually still a red flag, unfortunately. The only people why use Grok have terrible understanding other people, like the dude in this article. That’s part of the problem. Either you’re jumping off the same bridge as your weirdo colleagues, you identify with the nudist-cult Martian, or you have such trouble being understood, or understanding neurotypical people, you think you need a new word. It’s like people who is Na’vi, you can make up anything and say it’s anything and people who have trouble with reality will identify themselves by using that nonsense in normal conversation. You’re never gonna make fetch happen, it’s just tedious.

There is no problem with having read the book, there’s no problem with liking it. I did both, the first time i read it I thought it was cool. I’m more taking about people who made the nude sex cult book part of their personality enough to use the word grok unironically.

People using the word “grok” has always been a red flag. The people who read stranger in a strange land and identified with it so much they started using the word are fucking weirdos. The book is about a child adopted by Martians who inherited their reality-bending mind powers, comes back to earth as an adult and creates a nudist sex cult. Basically Jared Leto. I’m not joking, that’s the book. It was always elder developers who didn’t wear shoes and had trouble with personal space.

Anxiety, gerd or heartburn in general (it’s literally called heartburn, this is more common than you’d think), and like a million other things. I would get it with anxiety all the time before I was medicated, my doctor told me after my 3rd EKG that the pain from a heart attack really happens when you work it HARD. That might not be much for some people, but the Doc asked me if this happens often after physical activity at all. My answer was no, and I hike, walk, go up stairs, do all that stuff and have no issue or pain with my heart. YMMV, and as I age I still take heart stuff seriously, but that reduced my anxiety around it significantly.
