If only there was some way to know whether people without degrees were also getting jobs. Guess it’ll always be a mystery 🤷

Well not in tech, no.

You don’t need a degree to work in tech. You need a degree to work in mechanical engineering, biotech, etc.

IT is not a good use of college IMO

Humans are relatively defenseless but specialize in child rearing.

This gives us an advantage in taking pets. If you’re gonna form a bond with an animal it’s better if that animal is a predator because they can fight more effectively.

It makes more sense to give scritchy-witchies to a grizzly-wizzly than to a bunny-wun.

Dude your mom’s fine

The ten minutes is to get a lower reading not a higher one. The longer the same water sits in those pipes the more shit it absorbs from the pipes.

If you never work, everything is hard

A what??

Meta did not end fact checking.

Meta switched to a system of community notes, which is superior at fact checking than a centralized team of fact checkers.

Yes I’ve tried the obvious path. It doesn’t sort them.

It’s not as hard as most other jobs I’ve done, but I certainly do work that many hours.

Well ideally you’d only be trying to re-use the upper stage portions that serve their purpose in a launch. The payload should definitely stay in orbit or beyond.

Having a life plan that works, that realistically and with some degree of certainty is taking me to somewhere that I want to go, and in the context of which waking up is an instrumental action furthering my progress along that path.

Without a good reason to wake up, waking up sucks. A good reason to wake up is a complex thing. A good plan for life is hard to make, but worth it.

I say this from the perspective of a history of massive depression.

A good reason to open one’s mouth is that there’s delicious food in front of you. A good reason to wake up is that there’s a plan for the day that brings you closer to the things you want in life.

If you have a hard time getting up, resolving that starts with making sure whatever thing you’re getting up for actually serves you.

I think the term “social” here refers to one’s peers. It’s the same idea behind the term “YouTube”. It’s a play on the term “boob tube” which refers to the television. So instead of showing you boobs, YouTube is supposed to be “TV about you”.

It’s the same idea as the brand name FUBU, which stands for “For Us, By Us”.

“Social” here is the same concept as in the word “socialism”. In this context, the word means “of the people”. Same as in the phrase “social causes” as a term for charity.

credulous

Yes.

No you can’t do that

How far we have fallen

Fuck that
