Coming out of grad school in 2024, I had to submit ~300 applications to get 4 interviews and 2 offers for engineering roles. From what I hear, it's gotten even worse since then- companies are posting fake positions to look busy even in the middle of hiring freezes and ai bullshit has infected the recruiting process too.

In what way is asking for a place where they can pray imposing their religion on others? It's a reasonable accommodation in the same way that not working on the sabbath would be.

Fuck muslims with a necrotic pork penis.

Frankly, it sounds like you've got your own issues with bigotry to get over. Maybe look in the mirror before projecting your problems onto others.

For those who'd rather not engage with clickbait headlines:

In brief

  • Stanford researchers supported a study in Senegal showing rice-fish coculturing reduces disease-carrying snails while boosting rice yields by over 25 percent.
  • The intervention introduced native fish species into rice fields, offering potential income through fish sales and lowering schistosomiasis risk for farming families.
  • This approach could scale across disease-endemic regions, addressing health, food security, and poverty with one sustainable agricultural solution.

Ah, that's unfortunate. I did figure that if it were as easy as I proposed, it would probably already be implemented.

As someone who's had similar issues, I've previously wondered if it would be possible to 'simulate' a prescription lens and have the headset just add a distortion to the video feed that approximates what your lenses do.

I have two primary playlists, a metal playlist that spans a plurality of subgenres and an instrumental Mick Gordon Doom soundtrack-esque playlist, and then a bunch of different smaller ones (punk, rock, alt indie, norwegian space disco, etc.) for when I'm looking to change it up a bit.

I primarily listen through spotify (it's a family plan and I'm working on getting the person who manages it to switch, it's an uphill battle), which has halfway decent discovery through other people's public playlists and the new shuffle feature that weaves similar songs in.

Sirius XM is also a discovery and listening source for me, I like the hosts on channel 40 Liquid Metal and like how they promote new and small bands.

Yup, this is what did it for me as well. I was in high school at the time and Musk had done a decent job until that point of making himself out to be a real-life Tony Stark, so I thought he seemed pretty cool. That incident really exposed how he just wanted to be the most important person in the room and have the world fawn over his shitty ideas.

It amazes me when people claim they bought their car before he 'went crazy'. He has been obviously evil since at least 2018 when that happened, and the average length of car ownership in the US is around 6 years, so it's likely that the vehicle was purchased after he went mask off.

Wow, never knew that canvas was open source and self-hostable. My high school and undergrad both used canvas

I feel like they're a step above the conical water cooler cups you can't set down. These at least appear to have a resealable top.

If google decides to truly go full-on walled garden, I'm probably going to jump to apple. I have been an android diehard for over a decade because the platform was open for however I wanted to use it. If they're going to dictate what I can and cannot do, then I have minimal reason to continue choosing android, at which point I'd rather opt for the more polished experience.

If anything I've heard about Valve's culture is true, I'd bet this was just someone's pet project that they started because they wanted it as a feature too lol.

 

A screenshot of 2 posts to different 196 communities.

The first one is a screenshot from Tumblr that reads "if there was ever a GATE situation or whatever you'd not even be able to tell with this website. ppl would be like 'THEY SHOT A GOBLIN ON LIVE TV' and you'd just think it was some goncharov shit".

The second is also a screenshot from Tumblr and reads "THEY SHOT A GOBLIN ON LIVE TV".
