I think it’s more for anyone out on the streets, trying to get to shelter

I am sorry this was your experience, it’s an awesome and tasty spread, I would have loved to have been invited and would have eaten a lot of it haha

That said, I think some times disappointments like this happen because there’s some mismatch in people’s expectations of an event

I find that sometimes it also helps to let people know in advance that there will be food so they don’t eat beforehand. Sorry if you already mentioned this in the thread somewhere. I hope you make some more friends, but no need to officially break things off with anyone from this event. Just cool it with them for awhile I guess

I keep half my life in my car, I can’t imagine switching it to another car everyday…unless I just keep an equal amount of stuff in the other car…

I don’t think that’s a fair assessment, everything people have built up to now relies on a significantly greater amount of complexity. There is a lot which works well and is held together by hardworking, unsung normal everyday folks, but you don’t make the national news for getting shit done or keeping stuff functional.

That said, yeah the bean counters have fucking ruined engineering firms, and it’s a story which repeats itself over and over. There’s also the issue of nepo babies or “I know this person” incest in a lot of places where qualified people are passed over for someone “you know”. The nepotism and cronyism phenomenon is a huge problem for many institutions, not just engineering firms. Nepotism and cronyism is not just an American issue, it’s something you see everywhere.

Regarding unqualified people, I do think maybe standards should be raised for entry into some college programs. But the only way raising standards would make sense if we significantly invest in public education. In short, a lot of “breaking” of America is the direct result of short sighted Republican policies.

Lmao what a legend. How would DMCA even apply in this case though? Parodies are free speech

It’s not just the big tech, some startups are the same because they’re vying for VC cash and that’s the best way to do it

Amazing, now we just need charger infra to be more ubiquitous

Eh, all polls do is try to assume that trends remain the same. I remember when Hilary was favored so heavily to win

Voter apathy and turnout is the main issue, get people to the polls to vote.

If they think it’s already done or there’s already a winner, then that’s just giving into propaganda.

Tbh, we don’t know if the polls could be cooked, there are a lot of shenanigans happening everywhere this election season

But that’s the nature of memes, isn’t it? I also try to attribute as best as possible

Eh I’ll wear what I feel like, fuck trends

If the email did find them in a well, they’ll ask for help and that’ll just be a whole thing. Better not to send the email in the first place

There’s nothing inherently wrong with doing quality assurance work, but I think the workers are being fooled into thinking it’s less valuable work than their old job. In fact, based on QA in other industries, I’d say these workers should be getting paid more. This is why unions are important, otherwise people just get fooled or bullied into accepting bad deals

People who value privacy and want to support small vendors and businesses also carry cash, nothing to do with being a Boomer

Nations needing mystique is old guard thinking. As a whole, cultures everywhere need to recalibrate outside of primitive modes of thinking based on resource limitation and killing those they don’t like or disagree with. Removing religious people from positions of power and authority will help with that. We need more progressives in congress.

So many people means no one’s unique

If you do it right after you pee, the bowl will be sterile

/s

I think a regimen of heavy drinking and exercising to stay relatively fit can take that kind of a toll on a person

I missed it too, apparently

Wooow I didn’t even know that https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2008/07/where-does-the-terrorist-fist-jab-come-from.html

Fucking republicans

I was thinking maybe there could be different SoCs or machine learning oriented hardware, and if there are multiple designs then they could be put together somewhere else. Some research labs are specializing in different types of semiconductor devices, which I think might be interesting to explore on a microcontroller
