Infinite scroll is a blessing and a curse, combined with algorithms, they can become quite addictive.

That is the whole point of developing a project right, for people to actually use it, and the most possible?

I know, there are detriments to encouraging excessive use, but we shouldn't ignore the fact that algorithms and infinite scroll are here to stay.

The question with @loops is, how we can encourage the most healthy use?

steve ,

@dansup @loops Just don't have links in the page's footer that infinite scroll makes it impossible to get to. I've seen this too many times.

Just finished my 35th lap around Sol

I don't feel 35 though 😎

steve ,

@dansup That's how they get you. You never feel it until it's too late! Speaking as a 35-year-old with 12 years more experience than you.

How the hell have I been Canadian for fifty-ass years and I've never heard of Crad Kilodney

@pluralistic

You should mention him in everything you write, like Penn Jillette used to do with Uma Thurman.

steve ,

@jpaskaruk @pluralistic I'm with you. This is literally the first time I have heard that name. Canadian for my entire life of 47 years.

Good news everyone, I have officially won our staff challenge at work! Thanks to all of your support, we have raised over $650 to help protect children from trafficking. I have also earned an extra vacation day, which is very much appreciated.

If anyone still wants to donate to PACT just for the sake of giving to a good cause (a crazy idea, I know) you can do so! As always, please write "Connor" in the why you donated section so my bosses have one less reason to fire me.

@lowqualityfacts Congratulations, but this seems like a high-quality fact. Unsubscribing.
