  • They’re very supportive when you need it because that’s their job. They’re being nice to you so the boss doesn’t have to be. Imagine instead of an entire department dedicated to preventing you from taking your boss to court, there was no such department. The world boss actually has to treat his employees with respect, for a change. HR are not your friends, police are not your friends. Anyone who’s job it is to hold you back is not your friend.





  • Robotics can be dangerous, don’t jump into the deep end of robotics without learning how to use electronics first. Definitely start with electronics and move up to robotics once you have a lot of electronic failures under your belt. I would suggest that you keep robotics in mind as you learn.

    Many people provided you with great places to start with electronics. Start there, because robotics are electronics with motion and that’s more dangerous. Motion can hurt someone or start a fire. Especially for as a hobby I’d be most concerned about accidentally starting a fire because of bad code and poor failure planning.

    If you pick this up and get some experience with electronics, you’ll begin to understand a lot of the things that can go wrong with robotics before they start a fire. Also this can get very expensive, you will destroy components. It’s inevitable. I may be speaking from experience.







  • I recently had the realization that I’ve just been putting up with Windows bullshit forever recently when a friend asked me for help with their work PC. They’re a Mac user, but they just started working from home and have been provided a Windows laptop. They sent me a bunch of rushed texts when their headset stopped working. They changed the default audio device after they launched the program. Which never works on a Windows PC. I never have that problem because I have just learned to live with it, I don’t even think about it anymore.

    Now I’m really starting to notice all the little things I put up with from Windows on my machine. To be fair my Linux machine is just as janky but at least I can say I made it that way. I keep telling myself to ‘tidy’ my Linux machine up but I never do, it still plays games just fine. Usually. If I didn’t fuck with it.






  • We are horrified by our ancestors actions because we’re different than them, we don’t understand them. We have the benefit of hindsight and can see the results of their actions. We put ourselves into their world and view it with our standards of today, because we don’t want to think we could do the same now that we know better. I can be horrified by the actions of someone in the past but also know that the further back into the pastI look the less I understand of history people.


  • As I have gotten older, I have learned to realize that there are people who can not forgive and can not forget. They are the most negative-nellies, and will judge you and most likely themselves bad for just being human. I still listen to them, that’s basic human respect. I don’t let their words tear me down, that’s basic self respect.
