nah back in the 90s, it was a pretty good gig. not rich rich. Ross wasn’t rich rich either. but you made more money than your average Joe and society was way cheaper back then, even in new york. there were also way less phds, so there was higher demand and cost of education was way less. I dropped out of my program in the late 80s for a private sector job, but my friends that continued lived pretty decently.

Ross wasn’t a grad student though. he was a PhD researcher + professor. back in the 90s, that would’ve been a decent gig.

in a multi lane highway, nobody expects you to be blazing when you’re on the outside lane. people only get pissed when you’re driving limit on the inside lane. if u wanna drive comfortably, just use the right lanes so people can pass you if they want. if it’s a single lane highway, don’t give a shit about others as long as you’re not way under the limit. there are almost always overtake sections of those highways where you see the “slower traffic use right lane”.
plus, there are roads with limits higher than 65 all over the place and there are recreational things you might want to do with your car.
is it really that bad compared to other things on the market? I did some Salesforce and some hubspot stuff and I wanted to off myself with those too lmao
LeroyJenkinsto The Onion@midwest.social•Cousin Wearing MAGA Hat and Fake ICE Jacket Doesn’t Want to Talk About Politics At Memorial Day BBQEnglish3·19 days agothat’s not how it works tho unfortunately. you’re allowed to dress up like an officer. it’s about whether you impersonate one in other words, make people believe you are one. if simply dressing like a cop is illegal, the male stripper industry would collapse.
most IDEs are pretty decent at it if you configure them correctly. I used intelliJ and it knows the difference. use the refactor feature and it’ll crawl references, not just rename all instances.
LeroyJenkinsto Technology•Duolingo CEO tries to walk back AI-first comments, failsEnglish371·19 days agocrazy how fast they ruined the reputation of this company. just a couple months ago, duo mascot and Duolingo streaks were cool and fun. they had a good thing going. but now it’s just another shit tech company again. they lost all the good will in like a month.
LeroyJenkinsto Technology•Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this yearEnglish11·19 days agoyou’re quoting yourself but you never said that. you said maybe Gabe could be entering his villain phase, as if he’s not there yet. thus implying you meant he’s not a villain, so we shouldn’t assume the worse. I get what you say now, but you did not say what you meant in your original comment.
LeroyJenkinsto Technology•Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this yearEnglish22·20 days agonah. you need to be pretty fucking terrible to build a business where your share of it is worth a billion dollars. you do so by cheating your customers, employees, and competition. valve is no exception.
there are plenty of companies out there that pay their employees decently, make good products, and compete fairly. those companies usually aren’t worth that much and their leaders aren’t making a billion dollars from it. you’re right that the tax policies are shit, but it’s not like you ever accidentally become a billionaire. you do so by cheating the tax system too and screwing the general public.
and nobody said anything about killing people.
LeroyJenkinsto Technology•Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this yearEnglish22·20 days agoI’m not. your post is literally saying we should be nicer to him because he’s not Elon. you’re saying we should be easy on him because he might be doing some good. I’m saying we shouldn’t.
LeroyJenkinsto Technology•Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this yearEnglish2512·21 days agolet’s not circlejerk and have a soft spot for a billionaire just because you like video games. why give gaben the benefit of the doubt just because you think steam is a good product? if they’re a billionaire doing this, we can assume this is a money making venture.
if you’re a billionaire, you’re already way into your villain phase. he’s not musk, but he’s one of them. you don’t make a billion dollars. you take a billion dollars.
unfortunately a lot of people still use the bar of needing to be unable to live a functional life to entertain any sort of treatment. if you’ve grown up with a life and job, you’ll not be taken seriously a lot of the time.
it’s a double edged sword. ADHD meds have definitely been over prescribed to a certain degree the past decade or so and docs have been gatekeeping ADHD treatment a bit more these days.
this is what I hear from my wife who is a pediatrician.
nah, it’s usually hand moisture that causes this. if you do a lot of stuff that dries your hands out, you’ll get it too. climbing chalk can do that. I also said 95% is hydration. vitamins can also help.
I’m positive 95% of your results came just from drinking more water. when your hands look like the picture, it’s almost definitely because you’re chronically dehydrated.
LeroyJenkinsto Technology•Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised rangeEnglish11·1 month agothat’s been tech as an industry for the last decade. product releases, then all promised features come as a half baked update a year later… if at all. phones, games, cars, etc all use this strategy now unfortunately.

some do, most don’t.
agreed. not needed in most cases but absolutely needed in some. exactly what I meant in my original comment
nah there was a whole episode where people were banging next to where his dissertation was in the NYU library. he ends up banging a girl that was interested in his paper while policing the library next to his paper.
