Like why some apartments allow no tenants with pets. Living in an apartment building, some tenants around me absolutely fucking suck with owning pets. Allowing them to bark, wrestle and play loudly, letting them take dumps everywhere and not picking it up. People actually running with their pets with no leashes when leashes are required.

Yeah I side more with apartment offices that have balls to say no pets. Nobody wants the noise.

People always talk about how much wiser you get with age. I didn't really understand this until I hit my 30s. I can't quite explain it, but it's definitely true. I don't feel smarter, I just have all this life experience that has taught me all sorts of things and made me loads more confident. I feel this will continue to get stronger the older I get with the unfortunate side effect of slowing down a bit mentally.

It does, but the other issue is you see the young making the mistakes and you try to warn them using your wisdom, and they either don't understand or don't attempt to and go on with their mistake. With further time, you just let it go and don't mention it at all.

I didn't understand economy before, but now I realize it's because it's basically the world's biggest Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy, for a lack of a better way to say it.

When I was a kid, my mom would tell me stories about some rich/famous people who ended their own lives, and she asked me what I thought about it, I said it was stupid since they're rich and could just enjoy life

Now I have depression. I totally get it. (I mean I'm not rich, but still, I get it.)

Being rich doesn't change having assholes in your family that make you feel like you don't belong.

The code stack at my company. At one time, I was confident that I could affect change, add modern features, and make the process form streamlined and user friendly. Now I get to explain our tech debt to our new not yet soulless new hires.

Now I get to explain our tech debt to our new not yet soulless new hires.

To explain the tech debt in the code stack you must first explain what the Perl language its written is to the young new hires.
