Yeah I thought it was just “evil”.

Does it have its own battery then? What does the fingerprint reader use to draw power?

I feel like we shouldn’t be doing that regardless of their intellect. I eat meat btw. I believe in free roaming meat of all kinds.

She got a sister? Can I get a number?

Does that come with a backup generator in case they cut off electricity?

Saw an article recently about this 10 year old who shot his dad in the head while the dad slept next to the mother. Kid found the key to the gun storage when searching for the Nintendo Switch his dad took away from him, and he was angry at the dad, found the gun… Now he has no dad. Mom woke up to a loud bang and the sound of liquid pouring on the floor.

Devastating read. Really tragic.

I thank you for your service

This is my hope. I got kids, man. This has to be the outcome.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing!

Depends on the car probably, and volume.

You know your shit, don’t you. Well spotted.

Also interesting, but, if true, not much better than cars. 😬

Currently reading it. Pretty good so far.

Oh wow, I haven’t thought about Yeh for a long time. Welp. Time to go another ten years without thinking about him. Hopefully. 🤞

I feel like the only interesting bits are the yellow places that aren’t big cities (with their subways or whatever), and that aren’t places separated by water, where it makes sense that they travel across by ferry e.g. The few places where you’d expect cars to be the vast majority, but isn’t. Those seem interesting to look closer into.

It’s just that the system freezes for me when I used to run out of memory when I had only 32 GB of memory. Then I couldn’t do anything and had to hard reset the computer with its reset button. Then it would be nice to have a little bit of swap to kill some stuff before literally everything just stops working.

Man, 5 sick days wouldn’t begin to cover it for me with two kids in preschool. They get sick so often.

We get unlimited sick days as long as it’s not more than a week of consecutive illness, in which case you just need a doctor’s note I believe. Maybe there are more restrictions, but in case it’s just regular illnesses like colds and stomach flus and stuff like that, it’s fine, as those are common when you have kids.

As an example, I worked about 25 days from the beginning of October until middle of January, all due to me having colds and my kids having various spouts of illnesses, plus holiday vacation. 😅

Dang. Not moving to Canada then. I thought Canada was almost kind of like the EU with working laws but I guess it’s closer to the US in that regard.

That’s a terrible system though. It almost forces you to stay with a company once you’ve started. Gives unbalanced power to the employers over the workers.

In my country in Europe, I’ve never seen anything less than 5 weeks paid leave, but I believe 4 weeks is minimum required by law. Oh, plus holidays. In fact, you get paid extra during vacation as a sentiment to actually take that rest and recover some strength. Burnout is a big issue in today’s society so the vacation is a national investment.

2 weeks vacation for the whole year isn’t enough. Not nearly. 😔
