Thank you.

Any time I’ve thought about switching from web dev, being an electrician always looked the most appealing. I second this option.

Exist. The US education system failed me.

I am not “normal” I can’t read a chapter and pass a test. I need to be hands on. So the system gave me a C and moved me on to the next grade.

I was given the privilege to realize I can program, and by high school had already become pretty handy in C++. This is before high school.

I was a star in every tech class they had. Got Cs still of course cause i didn’t give a fuck, but it was very clear I was light-years ahead of even the teachers.

Not one teacher, staff or administrator asked me why I wasn’t going to college? Sat me down about my grades and got me aligned. No one gave 2 shits.

I got lucky. I got myself into the career without college. But man, those students who didn’t have the privileges I did, that just got dropped to the curb. Shame.

Here’s what it means… my household will remain free of Philips hue products.

You know those water balloon toys with the hose hook up? It fills about 20 small water balloons and you have to sorta jiggle the hose to get the balloons to slide off.

Well, it felt like the doctor was pulling a hose on a mini version if this inside my boys.

Was legit horrible experience.

Don’t let anyone fool you. Sooooo glad it’s done.

I did a few months back.

Because she’s a dinosaur and her age is very relevant to the situation.

I was just getting into Linux desktop development. I asked one question regarding getting the position of a mouse on some Ubuntu developer forum. The response drove me away from developing for Linux and I never returned.

Its a lame gimic IMO. Requiring replacement batteries should slow them down. I’ve no interest and would only get one if it was the only chooce. I want my headphone jack back.
