Yeah, getting the worlds top brainiancs and enticing them with a good education and having some of them build their lives here is one of our greatest imports.

Social Media is a tough nut to crack but meetup.com is a crock of crap. Something to replace that and make new friends would be interesting.

I see number of PRs as modern LOC, something that doesn't tell me anything about quality.

A lot of people work dead end jobs at walmart or trucking (which is another industry that has taken a big shit like manufacturing) Manufacturing and trucking jobs and the like paid 20-40% above what you could make at Walmart and other big c

I think it's because if you tour through the US, you'll come across hundreds of cities that are completly abandoned and rotting that all used to manufacture items. It's hard not to wonder what happened. Instead of working at

When we die off I guess lol. I've been using windows since I was 6 or 7. I currently work in a Mac environment and hate it. I worked in a linux one for 5 years. Nothing feels like the first language you learned I guess? My home compute

Agreed. It's unfortunate how litigious we are but it's the only language we speak apparently.

Yeah, I think it truly depends on whether you hit the send button or not. Since I was hacked, it wasn't me hitting the send button.

When I was "hacked" two years ago, their final hurrah before I finally got everything offline for a time, they sent zelles as much as they could and was able to recover it without any loss on my end.

They result in the same thing right? Huawei can't use windows after a certain time period.

I'm not a catholic but I decided to watch the new Conclave movie as well as a Tasting History by Max Miller to learn a little bit about it. Very interesting but I'd love a historical movie on some of the past conclaves when the po

I'd consider myself a pretty good rider but I've caught myself once or twice jamming on the brakes when a chaotic accident unfolds in front of me and the lizard brain takes over. I live in LA so lots of traffic and lots of acciden

I had a huge family, 100s, and all of us were pretty religious so if anyone was drinking, it was secretly and I never really experienced it. I mostly just experienced hard work, hunting, 4wheeling, and general redneck shit. People were anno

It really does seem as simple as that. I grew up dirt poor in rural appalachia but we were all poor so I didn't care. Really had a good life and it helped shaped my perspective on what matters even though I make good money now.

You gotta find those small communities. I'm into 4wheel drives and use facebook groups but I'm often on Ih8mud now. Just a better place to be imo. You got to find where your people are at

I used livescribe in college for its ability to record what the professor was saying exactly where a note was taken. It provided great context. I just searched my gmail and I bought a 2GB Pulse Smartpen by Livescribe in 2009 for $200. I als

That makes sense. It just didn't have the energy of an American company and I say that as one. I love booking.com
