You sound like you need a sabbatical.


Given that we introverts are a minority, I'm not sure how you've managed not to notice those people who hate silence and solitude.

Perhaps you've spent too much time alone?


If these men were good at the managerial jobs, why was the company ailing in the first place?

Maybe firing them all was the right move, but it was too late to repair the damage.


I'm waiting for a G Suite/G Spot/G Men/G String joke.


Having a publisher decline to publish your unsolicited article isn't censorship. It's business.

Why do people not understand that their right to free speech does not obligate (oblige?) others to give them a soap box or even listen?


Indeed, it's someone else's right to free speech that allows them to dictate what speech occurs within their jurisdiction.


Yeah, I had to stop reading after "But we have to let all voices be heard. The right to free speech is protected by The First Amendment of the United States Constitution."

Nothing in the first amendment says you are guaranteed an audience, government or not. If you can't make that simple distinction maybe you're not getting picked up and published because you're just writing drivel.


I'm happily coding at 51.


Me at 59:-)


We old developers _are_ better.

I, for one, have a lush neck beard and am seriously contemplating going with the sandals with socks look.


I delight my coworkers with dad jokes.

This is the book I wish I had 25 years ago.


Especially when our previous Prime Minister started his career working in a mail room.


I think you may have misinterpreted the license. There's no pay-per-view.

From the description:

"It is also available in web font formats for self hosted websites (up to 10K monthly pageviews on average)."

You buy a license for your website. Large websites (with more than 10k monthly pageviews) need to contact them for a license.


How do you know what the average page views will be when you buy it? How do you measure a page view?

For a blog or newspaper it may be obvious, for web applications it can be very hard to determine.


You might not know up front, for sure. I know when I load our website, I see a "transferring data from hello.myfonts.net" in the status bar, which I guess some sort of phone-home mechanism. If we go over the limit, I assume they'll notify us.


It's rather a simple algorithm:

1. Do I average more than 10k page views a month right now?

No: Buy license good up to 10k page views per month. Yes: Contact them about a bigger license.

You're not asking how to measure your own page views, are you?
