With any luck I'll have this summer to hang out on the porch of my cheap trasheap of a house in the woods and just fuck off for a good majority of it XD. Lots of projects and some gardening to do but all that can be done on my own time 😁

COVID/2020 sent me the opposite direction. Things just picked up and got worse over time. Been spending the last three years digging out of that hole.

Arguably people don't like the USE of AI regardless of whether the user thinks it's trustworthy.

Just a few weeks left for me. I haven't really had any more than 2 of these in a decade...

Fucking dream. Could take or leave the kratom but i respect it.

It's so huge not only for rest but creativity and mental housekeeping.

They also returned from the war to a much stronger welfare system.

If you care that much about your paint job or surface finish and own a tesla you can afford a car wash. Or, you know, wax it idk.

Car's probably not owned though, probably on lease. In which case this would fall under normal wear and tear. So it still doesn't really matter.

Ah then any safe space for her in which you can get to know eachother but gives her an easy exit if she wants.

"Hey i think you're really cool! Want to go [grab a coffee] with me?"

[Any low stakes public social activity]

Bonus points if you tailor it to shared interests.

Lol pretty much. My HS US history teacher was a Vietnam vet. He kept a running total of Iraq civilian death and total death toll on the whiteboard. Told us stories from Vietnam of calling in bunk artillery coordinates cause he was tired of seeing dead civs, and how he wish he was a bomber crewmember cause then he wouldn't have seen it. He updated the Iraq numbers at the start of every class.

Only teacher I've seen hit a kid. Kid was being a severe and petty little shit and directly insulted the trauma of servicemen. That teacher wouldn't have given a fuck if you shit talked the military or the wars but insulting the suffering of his comrades in that specific way sent him. I think everyone kind of just mutually decided it didn't happen.

I think you could get the same info from opinions on movies.

Interest in coding doesn't necessarily imply an interest in science fiction either.

The ladder climbing type are easy to route out, just ask them if/how they engage in synergy outside of work.

You wouldn't even notice seams. Line the width of human hair if you're using similar to Egyptian pyramid blocks

I like to use SyncThing for my keepass vault. Imo it's about as simple and elegant as it can get without involving third party services.

I know you're asking for an integrated sync but this has been flawless for me and only rarely notice a delay between machines including android, linux, and windows (less that 30s in any case)

Totally healthy! I started that when my friends died in Iraq or came back without limbs and sustaining life long trauma. But newbies always welcome 😁

Fuckin news!

Ah but the executive gets to be the judge of who gets to be a judge and it is judged by those judges it judged to be judges that it will be judged positively.

Especially if you're older and know that everything you've worked for is at risk. Especially if you're middle aged and your hope of a comfortable old age is being destroyed. Especially if you have family, and know your children's future depends on it.

I know you mean well but fuck ageism, the youth always fight. They don't need a pep talk, older people do.

People capable of Einstein's genious are born daily. There's two major reasons we don't her about them.

First, (your suggestion) we have to live under capitalism. Opportunity is distributed poorly and depends directly on circumstance and luck. So most people who could be another Einstein end up working at a service job to survive.

Second, the sciences have grown so much that these works are now the leaves in the canopy of a dense forest. Sure, you can see the trees, you can see the leaves, but every single tree is a different subject, every branch a new revelation, every ring built upon the previous, every leaf subdivided into thousands of little bits, and even the cells with component parts. Once you start learning about a subject you start to see just how complex something as simple as the tree really is. So just like you don't see every individual leaf, you don't hear about these people.

Bonus: science isn't the only place for genius, there's tons of absolute geniuses working as artists, and that's a good thing.

... Carries just enough water to sound plausible.
