I was away for Thanksgiving Not sure if you'll still find this relevant, but here's a source I had saved where you can see philosophy is in the highest third: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/07/w

Philosophy is actually one of the majors with highest career earnings out of college. Also anecdotally, I know several people who majored in philosophy (one with a CS minor) and they all do quite well. I'm in my mid 30s and the people

I think if I worked somewhere where the other employees (or worse,the higher ups) talked about me that way I'd produce shit code too. Doing more than the bare minimum is reserved for places where I'm respected, and I doubt I'

Just got a Venu 3, largely because my OG Venu battery life was down to two days after 4 years. I've had thing thing a week and haven't charged it yet. It's even a 3S (shorter battery life than the base model). I've had i

I've spent some time using it and experimenting with different prompts, but to be honest it's hard to be motivated to spend more time on it given the disappointing results so far. I need to see a glimmer of it being useful before

We must live in very different areas. Most of my friends are either from sports (soccer watching, ultimate frisbee playing, running club, hiking club, etc.) or board game groups, and none of the ones I've ever attended are segregated.

I have free access to copilot because I do some open source work. I haven't been impressed by what it can do and I wouldn't pay even $3/month to use it. The second question doesn't make sense to me. There are tons of thi

at my workplace it's done by having the same employees we had before, but working fewer hours each.

by that logic, bisexual people can't have any friends? I'm a lesbian, am I supposed to not be friends with men? Or with women? Also, idk about you, but I'm an adult. If my wife didn't allow me to do things, she wouldn&

I don't know, the problem there doesn't seem to be that you work remotely, it seems to be that your employer doesn't respect your time.

There's no debate about fish being part of the animal Kingdom. If you've never heard anyone refer to fish as animals, you probably never took biology in grade school. I mean no offense, but literal children with single-digit ages

I would also find that sentence weird, for what it's worth. I don't think it's pedantic to point out that fish are animals.
256.
by footy 3y ago
I made the initial comment and I was not mocking anyone, I just think it's different how so many people think of fish as separate from "animal meat". Even just "meat" by itself wouldn't have been interesting to

by footy 3y ago
This is a very interesting sentence, because fish are animals.

Yes, that's obviously what they mean. The pronoun "its" is modifying "America".

This is known as "paratransit" and it's fairly common, e.g. there's THE RIDE in Boston metro, Wheel-Trans in Toronto, TransHelp in Peel region in the GTA, HandyDART in Metro Vancouver... I believe in the US it's a r

It's not about temptation. It's about not wanting to see ads. I don't care to know about what the ad people want to show me, and I resent being shown ads at all. If I want a product I'll search for it. I don't wan

fwiw, I (not a member of the FIRE community) added my real life inputs and did not get a "you're screwed" result.

This is a privacy nightmare and I can't believe it's being built by neurodivergent people. I wonder if they know history, and how much. I'm out about being ND at work, but being out to people at a startup is not the same as

ADHD + APD. The quality of my work (and the ease with which I produce it) have both gone up by a ton since I started working remotely. Who knew controlling every aspect of my work environment would improve my work and also my life this much

by footy 3y ago
no, it's just someone who actually knows what ADHD is. That misnomer of a name has led to a lot of confusion on the part of ignorant (about ADHD) people who make assumptions based on it.

by footy 3y ago
eh, as someone with not-even-severe ADHD (it's fairly well-managed on a low dose of medication as long as I work out every day) those things seem normal to me---not good, and incredibly frustrating, but not uncommon. I didn't take

This is an incredibly cool concept and I would have loved to have this book when I was in undergrad (for Physics).

Good timing, I got rid of Windows yesterday. I don't even use Chrome but good fucking riddance to the worst OS I've ever used. WIndows 7 was nice though.
