In the United States, most junior/community colleges have career centers that will do this. There are also economic development boards in essentially every town with a population over 1000; they can connect you to places to do mock int

No we think flat earthers are crazy because it's trivial to prove wrong, whereas religious belief is a matter of faith that can't really be proven one way or the other, regardless of how silly the belief is. They're just diff

Hurting the voters in this way is a win for Republicans though. They can use it as a wedge issue. Look, Republicans in Republican states, they're leaving you without jobs and giving your jobs to immigrants. See, slightly red but mostly

And why? That's the part that gets me. What's the reason? If we can develop renewables that brings the cost of energy down, how is that bad?

I have never experienced a faster checkout with self checkout. If it's super fast, it's just for a few items, and a cashier would've been just as fast. If it's for a lot of items, there's a decent chance I have to l

I'm not sure about that. A field is sort of a best case scenario for autonomous vehicles. There are only well established obstacles, no pedestrians, and straight lines for large distances. Source: autosteer on JD tractors let me get re

I tell my kids not to share shit with anyone now. It's hilarious to me that it was literally the first thing you did when I was their age. Simpler times, I guess?

100% accurate. Livestock feed is (like most agriculture) hyper optimized. If they could increase production by 60% with any additive at all, it would immediately see widespread use. People still have this weird view of farming that it'

All LMS's are trash. Blackboard, moodle, canvas, whatever other bullshit. They're all actively user hostile and add features admin think look nice but provide no real value for classes.
