I had a professor who graded extremely harshly based on the actual grammar and structure of your lab reports. “A large majority of engineering is writing and you all need to figure that out ASAP.” I’ve had a relatively short career, but he

I suggested to my wife that ChatGPT would help with her job and she has found ChatGPT4 to be the same or worse as ChatGPT3.5. It’s really interesting just how variable the quality can be given your particular line of work.

I’m told that greedy employees are to blame for 95% of inflation, so this is an interesting take on the subject. /s in case someone thought I was serious?

I feel like their response was a decent rebuttal. Give the product a chance in the wild before assuming it’s a steaming pile of garbage.

Because everyone and their brother seems to prefer PlayStation. You said it yourself, what consoles do my friends have? I have both the XSX and the PS5, but most of my friends and relatives only have a PS5. They have an extensive catalog of

Fanboys also annoy me. The other side of the coin is that there are people who worship companies no matter what they do. I personally prefer more of a “let’s judge each product on its own” sort of person. I love my iPhone and AirPods, but I

I don’t think anyone wants to outright ban farming in these drier states. I think most people are looking to reduce water consumption by eliminating the production of water hungry crops. Surely there are crops that can be grow in dry climat

There’s a huge subset of people who just desperately want to “prove” that the popular company is bad. Apple bad, Tesla bad, etc.

I like HackerNews because the conversations are mostly intelligent and polite. Not always, but it’s far better than my experience with Twitter and Reddit.

How prevalent is this though? I come from a small rural part of the country that voted about 98% for Trump in 2016 and 2020. I remember going to the community pool and no one doing or saying anything negative to the non-white swimmers. I wo

That’s true. I meant more so for those that purposeful have children. My brother had two children that were definitely unplanned.

Same with having children. “I don’t even want kids. They are needy, expensive, and tie you down.” All true, but having kids was never a choice for you given your financial situation so let’s not pretend you had a say in the matter.

I think they were talking about states trying to get more teenagers working to help with the “labor crisis.” I had a similar upbringing to what you described, but idk if that’s what they meant.

Fair enough. I do enjoy a daily dose of meme though and I’d prefer that that didn’t come from this website. It feels like this is the one place I can go to to find (usually) intelligent conversation about a wide range of topics.

I don’t want this to happen, but I have a theory about how this is all going to play out over the coming decades. We are going to continue to see yearly records be set. Bigger fires, more ice melting, worse droughts, etc. Eventually, the gl

While I feel like these companies could easily implement sensible daily spending limits to help combat this, parents could also do more to make sure their children aren’t charging their cards. I’m pretty sure Apple and Google both have syst

“But I’m a bad test taker!” I understand that everyone is different and that we should try to be accommodating overall, but it always cracked me up when select people could only thrive when they were at home with a take home test.

What a fun logical jump you made. At no point did they say anything remotely related to race. You choose to make it about that. If you take two people of the same race and one of them happens to have better genetics that lead to them being
