You know what? You’re absolutely right.
People: please leave flying 737s to trained experts with the know-how, FAA licensure, and medical clearance. They know better than you even if you think you can do it from a meme.
It’s very important that you not touch ANY of the buttons and dials on a 737. People could get hurt or even die if you do.

Well they are in the category of bad MLK statues but yeah I agree oral sex is not very similar to a stern expression
- Comment on Oppa oppa 3 weeks ago:
Same sentiment, though.
“We don’t even see his feet. He is embedded in the rock like something not yet fully born, suited and stern, rising from its roughly chiseled surface. His face is uncompromising, determined, his eyes fixed in the distance, not far from where Jefferson stands across the water. But kitsch here strains at the limits of resemblance: Is this the Dr. King of the “I Have a Dream” speech? Or the writer of the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech?”

These comments are almost there.
You’ll end up working with passive aggressive geeks that are somehow defensive of their shitty code.
They’ll be great at understanding the domain though

Man, games used to be fun and include just simple joys written by a small cadre of competent developers. I think Mario 64 was written by devs that had never written a game before? Maybe that was Goldeneye

Exactly, my coworkers at nearly every job have done this just by their disinterest in reading code and not caring about their craft.
It’s far more effective. Once you have a bad architecture and you keep adding to it over the years in haphazard ways, it becomes increasingly difficult to make any changes.

This is the winning response I think.

I get this is a battery but the units don’t make sense unless it’s going at 100% all the time
- Comment on Milliamp-hours per hour 2 months ago:
So this is 510 mA per hour, I guess

Hazing is the reason I decided not to become a doctor or an academic. Well, that and bad grades.

This is not a generational thing if you live in Bakersfield or Visalia or Fresno. Most of the time I’d agree.

I have been volunteering feeding homeless for a number of years and I was never happier than when I was tasked with throwing away compromised food. The sadism of it mixed with the altruism, sweet Jesus.

Depression is not this. It is far more complex.

Many petty tyrants who couldn’t hang in a normal job. I dealt with these guys in a tech support role. Many are genuinely nice. Some have oppositional defiant disorder

I liked this meme until I thought, wouldn’t it be cooler if it were a complex and reversible operation? 3/10 doesn’t deceive enough

- Comment on Is 33 cents a small amount of money? 7 months ago:
Specifically, the phrasing “you were/you are” is not totally accurate. You were in many tax brackets. You are now paying a fraction of your income in a higher tax bracket. It’s tantamount to begging the question.
- Comment on Is 33 cents a small amount of money? 7 months ago:
That’s a loaded question. Poor methodology.
