Oh no, think of all the be-smirched well-adjusted people! Otoh, succeeding in the entrepeneurial world generally takes a pretty high-degree of being “well-adjusted”, regardless of mental-health issues stemming from abuse or otherwise.
There are also plenty of other things that can put a chip on one’s shoulder or break a person besides childhood trauma.
Pretty much anywhere. Be nice if the AI could have obtained them a permit, in some jurisdictions, but failing that concern, I think I would enjoy finding out I was “duped” alongside thousands of others who share an interest of mine like so.
Bad fit for this community. He’s right. The entrepeneur world is full of the wrong sorts of people to be starting businesses, unless your only criteria for “success” is getting bought-out early for a ridiculous amount, letting all the employees go, and telling existing customers to go fuck themselves.
Those with a legitimate problem to solve tend to have the will and motivation to see that it, or more likely whatever small portion they’ve figured out, stays solved, at least for a good while.
Stop giving them excuses.
There are many days when I feel like this, and pretty muct every day for as long as I can remember, I’ve spent some time thinking about where I should go(outside the US) if fascism wins outright here.
Maybe, but starting with sanctified ground is planning to fail. I pity the necromancer whose army or love or whatever is burried here.
… or forced to take-on un-related work and afraid of discouraging newbies.
The lengths they’ll go to to refuse to admit those started as Pallets, as if anyone ever held that against them.
Virtual Classrooms were the first thing we tried and realized it wasn’t for us. We dropped it within a few weeks. I can’t imagine spending any significant amount of time stuck with such a finicky and un-reliable medium.
“Look at it wrong and it breaks” is very apt in that situation; All the while they are “taking attendance”, and none of the lessons were available for later viewing. Our kids learned more from going through stacks of worksheets* with our help, reading, and just spending time with us as we went about whatever errands.
*worksheets were over 95% of the Virtual Classroom work anyways. The rest was art and poorly thought-out “expiriments”, with the occassional form-letter/one-paragraph-a-week “essay”. Not even book reports or recommended reading!
Why do you think “many” come to you with all of these skills? Home-schooling is more common than ever. Most homeschoolers we met were also restricted to older or no tech… Even no tech seems to be better than consumption focused devices.
That’s how we handled it when we home-schooled the older three for a while. They ultimately asked to go back to regular school, but they had stayed ahead of their peers.
I almost clarified “in external form”, but you’ve really hit the nail on the head.
Joke’s on you; Almost all of the personalized links whatever app/sites generate for me to share are invalid until I delete massive chunks of them!
As a result, I anonymize all of them just so I can share stories about random bullshit.
Congrats on making me want to pull my youngest from public school for a year or so, so I can teach her typing, scripting, the command line, etc … (also, phonics) … Blows my mind that TYPING as a late-elementary-school glass is basically gone in our school district, nor is it a class that’s even available in middle or high-school.
I’m in this comment, and I don’t like it. I still fix “computers” for a living, but when I get home, most days, the last tech I want to interact with is anything more complex than my phone.
Social Credit is real, yo. Particularly, networking with people who have the discretionary funds to spend on expensive equipment.
Only problems I’ve ever had on TPB were not finding things that I could find on other sites. Then again, I don’t use Windows for either downloading or media consumption, I check torrent file lists as I’m downloading to make sure I’m not downloading anything suspect, and I’ve so far managed to catch wind of things like certain trusted uploaders getting hacked, spoofed, or just plain trying to cash-in, in-time to avoid getting worked over.
Those same users post to most of the other public sites as well, so I’m not getting where TPB is somehow particularly un-trustworthy. IME, other public sites seem to have MANY more torrents for a given search, often by orders of magnitude, so which one is really less moderated?
The REAL encouraged/discouraged is Private vs Public sites and trackers, and I’m not pretending that for all my caveats I haven’t been just plain lucky. If you download regularly at all, Private is the way to go.
Anyone who takes Dueling Banjos to mean anything has never given Sunny Came Home a good listen.
If I were forced to choose … yes, it would be the ones that build dams just to keep everyone else away from their homes.
I mean, in general, or in captivity? There is probably a huge difference.
