I find it hard to believe that someone who entered a PhD program wasn’t given a heads up immediately about the competition for professor positions.

They are!
UI overhauls are NOT security updates.
- Comment on Do you read analog clocks to the exact minute? How do you do this quickly? 4 hours ago:
I grew up when even digital clocks were off by a couple minutes or more because they weren’t centrally connected to something that kept them accurate. Heck, my phone and computer clocks aren’t always exactly in sync down to the second.
I prefer analogue clocks most of the time because it lets me know roughly how much time is left until something at a glance instead of needing to calculate it in my head.

Hire from outside the company like they have been doing for decades.
Surely some other company will be the one to spend money on training!

At least it tells you what stupid shit it is doing. There is apparently another ‘security update’ for android and I’m assuming it is actually another complete UI overhaul called a security update again.

Yeah, it should be off by default with the option to turn it on.

- Comment on [[TheGamer]] Forza Horizon 6 Setting Potentially Leaked By Australian Car Company 1 day ago:
While it doesn’t outright confirm anything, there would be very little reason for the developers of the next Forza Horizon game to scan Kei cars if it were to take place outside of Japan.
I don’t think the game cares about where cars are from or whether they are even street legal.

Pretty sure coating the whole thing with black ink to make it look ‘manly’ makes recycling more difficult.

‘Seven legged turbo spider’ just seemed pretentious.

To put it another way, the game’s like jumping into a MeatCanyon video about ASMR.
Well I’m sold!

It’s a bad practice that should be banned for everything except medical issues such as phimosis.
That’s what I said, but apparently not in enough words.

Wouldn’t allowed be if it was illegal…
- Comment on [deleted] 2 days ago:
It should be limited to medical professionals who do it for medical reasons, not for religious reasons.
Also I’m circumcised and it happened to work out well so I have no regrets, but it was done by a doctor and not as some backwards religious ceremony.

I’m not sure of the numbers, but it was a net positive for the public’s health even if the difference is fairly small.

I love Fleetwood Mac but this line always grinds my gears.
Oh, thunder only happens when it’s raining
No, it thunders without raining fairly frequently! It usually goes together, but not always.

That is more of an action vibe than a horror vibe though.

This is a structure even more common than just one author. It needs a name like the hero’s journey has. Heck, your summary works for Alien Ressurection!
I nominate “Science goes wrong”
