If I’m giving off the wrong vibe, I’d like to know so I can correct it.

Even if you're not ghosted, you're very unlikely to get this information. Usually it's just that they're not interested and not the why behind it. And begging for the why is typically not productive. The only thing not ghosting gets you is knowing it's a deliberate choice and not that they, like, broke their phone for weeks or fell into a coma or something else unlikely that prevented them talking to you.

I can't imagine doing it as a parent. My kids drowning is a pretty big, realistic fear. Maybe for a teenager? Even then though...

Marketing isn't a fan yet. Give it a year, and then we can sell it as efficency.

That's not who you voted for but that you voted in the election.

I think I just misunderstood what you were referencing with the podcast. It just seemed like a general puff piece from before the drama based on the description and what I listened to of the clip.

Mullenweg just took over AFC so that everyone who installed the non-pro version will now have his version instead. It's part of this whole crazy drama in the WordPress ecosystem right now. It's just funny to see anyone saying anything else about Mullenweg/ WordPress at the moment.

This is the WordPress drama you're focusing on right now?

It's crazy how different people are. The idea of sitting through a video to do something like this is so painful to me. Like I find it useful for physical things where seeing the motion can be helpful, but I still generally find doing things that way awful. Please, please, please just give me written instructions for things. Especially if I'm going to need to refer back to it a few times (e.g. there are multiple steps that take a bit of time).

Do VPNs make that feature kind of pointless? We can't access most things from home without going through a VPN. Every where I've worked (and gone to school) was like that.

Does your RSVP have options for remote vs in person? My options are "accept", "decline", and "tentative." If I want to tell someone I'm remote that day, it needs to be a separate message.

Caffeine is physically addictive. You get withdrawals if you're addicted and stop cold turkey. It does vary person to person. But most people get a splitting headache.
