At my Walmart there is roughly 10-15 self checkouts vs 3 cashiers where people with full carts are waiting in line. Self checkout is great if you have a few items. Also cashiers aren’t that fast considering they have to scan, bag (in some p

Worse than that is in my city they decided to add a forced stop to pedestrians crossing a round a bout so if you’re in the roundabout and a pedestrian wants to cross you have to stop before exiting the round about which defeats the purpose

The studies referenced are highlighted and spread throughout the video for each point he talks about. I’m not sure what penis pumps have to do with the quality of his research, they’re a legitimate medical device used in patients with erect

At least the failures were in software and not hardware. Nothing worse than having to take everything a part again after spending hours on an engine job because you forgot to plug something in or a seal wasn’t installed properly. Or you won

A lot of people like to pretend that smoking weed is harmless. I support legalization but from my personal experience, I’ve suffered psychosis twice after smoking weed, and that’s enough for me.

Very cool, I'm in automotive and in school we've got a few of these builds with some older engines to play around with.

Ah yes I know that exact problem. AoPS intro to algebra. That question was great for getting an intuitive sense of proportion, though I do remember one of the sub problems gave me some trouble.

Sure make it costly for the company that already pays the employee peanuts when some dickhead leaves a cart full of groceries to spite upper management. Sounds like a fantastic strategy…

Goodluck replicating and replacing a leyendecker or a Gibson or a Rockwell. Getting to that level of technical proficiency is more than just settling into a style.

I’d still venture to guess it was genetics, I played outside all the time, granted I used the computer a lot growing up too and I still needed glasses around 13 - 14 years of age.

Yes, I went from focusing on programming, to then switching to Math, dropping out to focus on art, and now I have a career in coffee and I couldn’t be happier as all the interests and skills I’ve acquired over the years of flip flopping hav

I did something similar though I never made it into tech, I dropped out of a bachelor's in math to pursue art, this was roughly 5 years ago and it's been a tough journey, I wish you the best of luck. Some resources that will help

^ this. I find the idea of being fed a story fascinating because a successful story feels more real than life itself and I'm not sure you can separate the two (life and the stories we tell ourselves). Once you can see it for what it is

As a huge fan of blackpink I highly recommend you check out the documentary they have on Netflix. It became obvious after watching it that the genius behind blackpink is Teddy Park, who was also behind another massively successful girl grou
