Hmm. I’m seeing the person in the wheelchair giving two handjobs to people on the seats. I think they used to call this skiing.

This is like the Christian camps that try to make your gay cat heterosexual. Or they try to make your cat a dog if he prays hard enough.

- Comment on On Venus. 2 days ago:
This has some tankie level vibes. It’s referencing the Cold War era. Though I seem to remember as a kid in the 80s learning about Russia’s Venus crafts. This is like reverse propaganda.

Doing matrix operations in C++ is super annoying and difficult coompared to writing SQL queries wrapped in Java jdbc, or creating some REST APIs in python/ruby for some js react UI. Another comment response acknowledges this.
But I get that probably most people want to write games. Having the skills to do 3D graphics programming is another thing. (I remember this kid in my undergrad linear algebra class, who was complaining he failed the class like three times, and that he was going to go to the department head and get the professor fired lol. I think that guy wanted to do game programming. I’m betting he’s writing unit tests now.)

That’s interesting. Because writing code for 3D graphics is way more complicated than writing an SQL query or some input form UI. I assumed those devs are super skilled and hence paid accordingly.

Part of the problem is, back in the day you had company towns. And everyone knew where the boss lived. In the big ass house just outside of that shit hole town. So it was pretty convenient to go grab your pitchforks and rifles and walk half a mile while your rage built up.
Today you probably don’t know where your boss lives. Say you managed to find out. Supposing he doesn’t live in a different state, you get your guns and pitchforks and start marching. The cops will stop you before you get to that nice neighborhood.

It’s when your manager drives behind you with an automatic rifle while you run for your life and makes you explain in excruciating detail every last bit of minutiae you are working on.
Or is that a gundown?

It’s weird, I’ve met people who are actually happy with their timeshare. And are talking about buying another one! I don’t get it. But maybe it depends on how you vacation I guess.

In this day and age, where newspapers will publish any bullshit dictated by their corporate / billionaire owners, and any idiot can publish a book, how do we know the sources themselves are even valid? Like just because it’s physically printed doesn’t make it any more true.
