I'm honestly not sure, but I'm fairly certain it's intentional obfuscation done for the production build. Why they think it's so important to hide class names, I'll never know.

Yeah that's a complete myth and not based on actual science.

In modern chess, engines have gotten good enough that we generally do know the top moves and humans can't beat them. We can even numerically assess someone's chess play with a computer, which we call "accuracy". Obviously they can always be improved further, and there are a handful of situations where they might misevaluate, but it's still pretty incredible.

Engines have only made chess more exciting as they have shattered a lot of old theory and helped people find a lot of new and innovative ideas. They are an incredible aid in analysis and tournament prep.

Just gonna drop this here: http://visidata.org/

Blows excel out of the water, at least for tabular data (which, frankly, is what all financial data should be... Cell-based formulas are a mistake).

Hmm that makes me wonder, is this his first time saying please publicly since 2016?

It's perfectly reasonable to not want to sleep over at your parents' house after only a month of dating. To be honest, it's reasonable to not ever want to do that. It's weird sleeping in someone else's house period.

But especially after just a month of dating, your parents may as well be strangers to him. He likely doesn't have any sense for any cultural differences between how he was raised and your family, like what behaviors are considered faux pas to your parents, etc.

To be honest I think you're really getting ahead of yourself. Take your time with the relationship and build trust and the foundations of a great relationship. It always takes time and patience. You guys are still just starting to learn about each other.

Massive red flags all around. At this point it sounds like he's fully "in the hole", so to speak.

You could try to address the issue, but to be honest I don't see it doing anything productive. He sounds pretty toxic and you can't force people to become better... They have to want it themselves.

If you do try to address the issue with him, the important thing is to not allow yourself to get bogged down with misogynistic, manipulative bullshit. If he is dismissive of your concerns and won't engage in a constructive conversation with you, then there's not a lot you can do and you should move on.

My son doesn't watch it and we have no intention of starting.

Yeah.. I do hear it a lot.

I met my wife on a dating app in 2019 on Bumble (28 at the time). It can work, but you have to be willing to sift through a lot of bullshit and be patient. You also need to be able to handle rejection and mistreatment (like getting stood up/ghosted). It's ultimately a numbers game and it takes time to find someone that is actually right for you.

I expect it's probably also not nearly as bad for older age groups. At your age, I think people are going to be a lot more likely to be direct and know what they want.

My advice is to try it out. Worst case, you decide it's not for you and try something else.

That's what I'm saying.

That's a really poor metric, because that encompasses many salaried jobs.

But yes, it's ultimately just about whether or not you are selling your time for money, or if you have acquired enough money to exploit the labor of others to make yourself more money without doing anything yourself.
