@CicmilJovan My issue with all these “no code” and other similar containers allowing the inexperienced to take advantage of powerful technology… is that it’s NOT no code. You’re just not the one doing the code.

@Talk_To_The_Hat All but “Catcher in the Rye.” I also don’t believe that these are the “most banned” books. Half of them were required reading in school. And how the hell does “Slaughterhouse Five” end up on a banned list? People got issues with Kilgore Trout or something?

Be honest. Is it possible for me to be a full stack dev with no sense of aesthetic and no artistic ability? I’ve got enough technical know-how and I’m getting better, but my design skills are trash, and haven’t gotten any better since 1997.

@wordwestpress Fiction, especially, needs to be historically accurate. And even if by omission, a lie is a lie. A proper book should just be every historical event that happened between the start of the book and the end.

@TheHealerDM After Biden took office and got PSLF back on track (denied twice during previous administration costing me several thousand dollars) I got most of the remainder of my loans forgiven, which put my DTI under the magic number to refinance our home, and wound up saving $1500/month.

@DeanSloan12 @DarkEden21 “Cis” as a prefix is literally the opposite of “trans.” Cisgender literally means “not transgender.” It’s a technical term. I am unable to fathom how that could possibly be offensive to someone. Inaccurate maybe, but offensive, no.
