I’m just shocked that’s a cinema and media studies professor. I’d’ve expected human factors engineering or psychology, especially at such a psych school

I’m too high to go on a rant about the feminist theory relating to bdsm, but I know plenty of militantly feminist male doms that prefer submissive women as partners. It’s when a guy associates his masculinity and his dom identity that you start seeing a lot of misogyny.

To preface, one of the initial things that attracted me to my wife was her antifascist beliefs. But also, like, I don’t want people to tell me how hot it is that I vote unless we’re already flirting. This is just me having been raised right.

I spent years gaming on 8gb. Sure I could barely open bg3 but do I really need my 32 now?

Exactly. Lying is easy, especially when compared to finding or spinning truth or even admitting a disadvantageous truth. But I can’t speak for everyone but I know that many children, including me, have phases of frequent lying that end because peers and adults see through the lies and punish them. You are taught not to lie and one of the realizations is that it doesn’t work as well as honesty. Trump seems to have never had that experience. His lies have always been rewarded.

Ethics were never impressed upon him. Why would he have them? Sure some insightful folks will have a Siddhartha Gautama like realization of the personal value of an ethical life, but his soul lacks that. He is as a cancer, only sated by more no matter the cost.

I agree with the shirt. If an election wasn’t stolen 24 years ago we’d be in a much better position environmentally, socially, and politically

Damn that hits hard

Some of them are Catholics and Catholics don’t subscribe to sola fide, well, it’s against their stated religion, I’ve met plenty who do

Nah more like the dive bar down the street from the brothel that’s open at 6am

I hate their refusal to use standardized symbols

Not really. You have to be the sort of person who understands that investment works and not how it works or why it works and most importantly why you aren’t going to hit the jackpot on it even though some people do. They’re the standard marks for an investment con. So yeah they’re stupid and self selected, but the mechanism of action is important because it shows us how to help people avoid falling for it not just letting us feel superior to those who do.

They can spend millions trying to reduce everyone’s carbon footprints. Like literally they can lobby for trains and shit. But no they won’t.

Also you need to provide evidence it’s better than training. I imagine there would be a ton of engineering labor involved in making programs to make it work and that’s not cheap

Industrial engineer here, it depends on the factory work. The positions described in the article involve stuff I wouldn’t be ok with my workers doing. But also yeah OSHA is weak but sometimes ergonomics are bad enough to get them involved. It’s an important thing that my generation of engineers were taught to take seriously.

Also AR headsets are very much something we want to implement more in factory settings but the Vision Pro isn’t safe for that. Too heavy and no visual pass through when unpowered. Additionally there are some hygiene issues with wearable tech that have become known concerns when it’s used in industrial environments.

Also beyond that it’ll need a decent value proposition. A factory making small run complex products like trucks or airplanes has great use for it, but a place doing something like injection molding or large scale food manufacturing doesn’t

Ok but neither of you should be experiencing workplace injuries. If wireless is unacceptable sterilized wired headsets should be accessible. I don’t want doctors getting RSI

Also if that’s the case they shouldn’t be able to automatically renew at the end of a contract

I would do that, but a lot of standup comedians have taken to ranting against people like me for daring to be offended when they insult us. I miss when I could just throw on any random standup comedy and have a good time without having to check if there’s a transphobic rant in it

This conversation is enlightening to me. See I just always assumed business people understood how engineering works, but were being obtuse to keep us on track or were just looking at the financial spreadsheets. But no it seems some people genuinely don’t understand that sometimes you spend a lot of time on things whether or not it goes anywhere because if you don’t you don’t develop any products or solutions.

If I owned a multimillion dollar company, probably yeah. There’s a limit but for a groundbreaking company the RCA labs are more a warning of “but they actually have to complete projects at some point and have direction” than a “everything needs to be rigidly directed”.

“Hey I have an idea for something I’d like to exist” is quite possibly one of the best things a business owner can hear out of an R&D engineer’s mouth. You provide oversight in accordance with the risk factors established by your financials, business plan, and how good of an idea it is. But if a bunch of them like it as a product that’s a good sign.
