It is hard as an artist seeing your friends who started out in the same circles as you, doing effortlessly well with the parental support that they have. You can't resent them for it because why would you, if your parents were able, they'd do the same.
But you thought you were equals, starving as martyrs for your respective passions.... but, they had a parachute and you didn't.

Oof, I'd hate to live in a hexagon house with hexagon rooms. Can you just imagine what the corridoors would be like?
Either you accept that the corridors are constantly bending in and out, or you shove a rectangle through there for normalcy and disrupt all the other rooms

Log data, current status of a run, timestamp of an error, you name it.
These are oneshots. Of course you could use a proper workflow system with data provenance and lineage tracking baked in, but during the dev cycle of something new you usually want to play around and gather metrics first without worrying first about the architecture.
Please don't X/Y me.

I love how physics and chemistry are like "this does this and this, except with extremely high energy this other thing can happen"
But with biology it's just "generally... this happens... but also this... and that.... and that one we dont have a name for yet...."
If it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck, eh... we're not quite sure. Could be a distant kangaroo...

Anyone who voluntarily votes themselves into an absolute monarchy the second their, uh, prince, throws a hissy fit, is not someone I want to get to know

2003 Liechtenstein constitutional referendum - Wikipedia
Prince Hans-Adam II had threatened to leave the country and live in exile in Vienna, Austria if the voters had chosen to restrict his powers.
After the votes were counted, the prince told a local radio station: "It's an excellent result. We can be very pleased with it."
87% voter turnout
I have never met anyone from Liechtenstein, nor do I wish to

it's such a weird strawman too. Imagine I said something like:
I have a far clear understanding of the fast food industry than some of today's "influencers"
Some might call that an unhinged statement

We can pretend he's the main influence, whilst ignoring the fact that most people prefer square even walls for aesthetic, functional, and - most of all - cost purposes.
I do agree we could do better w.r.t to colour, and millenial grey needs to go. But don't knock the rectangle. Rectangle is good. Rectangle is steady. You can plan on rectangle.
