Relating to other people can be challenging if it is not something that comes to you naturally.

Let’s say this happened to you personally. Maybe you saved the last of your money to take a chance and make something you wanted to be proud of, maybe Linus was someone you looked up to, maybe you worked countless days to design and redesign to get it perfect. How would Linus’s initial response make you feel?

Let’s say you give him the benefit of the doubt on the initial review. You wait, and try to work with him to get things set right, and you don’t get a resolution. And then this happens. And you see his response where he still does not apologize or regret how he handled it.

How would you feel now? You put a lot of effort into all of this, to be shamed and belittled and have negative things said about your product and efforts for everyone to see.

If none of that would make you sad or upset, then you are able to shrug off a lot more than most people. Empathy is going to have to be something that you recognize you don’t have, but still have to be able to show sympathy, because you don’t want to invalidate the feelings of others. Try to understand their perspective if possible.

If you play on a lower difficulty you may be able to do that depending on what you play. Though I’m unsure how well that will work unless you do hit and run tactics with a Rogue.

This is really the only answer. You will always be afraid to use something you are unfamiliar with or don’t trust. Command line is very useful and quick once you learn it.

I would be careful with this advice. If you are asking AI for an explanation of code, you may not have the experience to differentiate when it is correct and confidently incorrect.

Personally, I would say to pick a specific implementation instance and debug it.

Let me use a button as an example.

If you have a button, say, Subscribe, attach your debugger where execution will go immediately upon click. Follow the path by stepping into (not over) the base implementation(s). Stop along the way if there are any calls that you do not understand what it is doing or why.

I most scenarios, there is common functionality that all objects would need. All buttons need to do x, y, z. All forms need to validate a, b, c, and forms of this specific type also need to validate d.

Usually the tradeoff in complexity upon first learning the code base is offset by the ease of extensibility once you are familiar with it.

Excellent looking pho. Beautiful photo.

For me, balance issues are never the party vs. the monsters. I can tweak the monsters to make the encounters more challenging. Players want to feel powerful! Give them the tools over time to build the character they want to build.

It’s power disparity within the group that has always been the biggest problem. If you have players that are very knowledgeable about the game and know how to build optimally, other players may feel like their character isn’t good at anything because the more purposefully built characters will seem to be able to do so much more.

I usually have to balance that with custom feats or items to even things out. Disallowing multiclassing in 5e in my new campaign also helped. Too much front loading that encourage dips for the sake of dipping.
