Death By The Blues posted:again it will be very funny if this minor/major civil unrest explodes in America because of Canada. I also think its good/cool that thousands of them are dying or getting disabled a day, less of them to deal with whenever collapse happens lol. The Canada thing is pretty openly a trial run so I fully expect it to come to the US soon since it's working.

Yea that bridge shutting down stunt is a signal that it works and its funny that they came to Toronto and got run out of town. Toronto can be a deeply unpleasant and cold place, people here are uh rude to put it in one word, so its not shocking.

not_superiority posted:i got some basic python with my gis certification, it shouldn't be too hard to pick back up and expand on. then build a portfolio i guess? The usual trick is to try and think of some sort of thing to build, even if it's stupid, and put it on github so people can judge your ability to write code. I've never been a manager or hired anyone, though, and it's been over a decade since I was a newbie so things have likely changed.

In addition to these, if you are reasonably proficient with C#.net you will never lack for job opportunities. VS Community is free. Day 1 install VS and do a C#.net Hello World. Day 2 write a tic-tac-toe program. Day 3 profit.

Number wouldn't be happy so no go. what I’ve done is have oatmeal and fresh fruit for lunch and omit the added salt for the oatmeal effectively removing about 1000mg of sodium from what garbage I used to eat for lunch at work all the time, this has allowed me to more or less not worry too much about how much sodium is in my breakfast or dinner.

Summer of 2020 it was the left's turn to riot, 2022 is going to be the right's turn to riot. Fortunately, the police appear to have learned all about 'hands off, community policing' in that time and are going to be respecting their first amendment rights.

Oh also, re: programming chat, a good IDE will help you out so, so much. I recommend the JetBrains IDEs in particular. They're free for personal use and variants exist for Python, C#, and most other languages. Most of the time I write code, I'm less generating original thoughts and solving problems myself as I am making all the red squiggles go away.

The cashier made a stupid "can't tell your gender" joke and all I could do was laugh and say that I was expecting to get a comment or two but she defied all expectations. People like mine, I'm getting genuinely curious questions and a few "oh poo poo now that's a mask!" Some people seem put off but strangers have never been nicer to me. Someone got those printable cards about where to get elastomeric masks handy?

Shiroc posted:Earlier in the week I was out on a walk and looked into a window of a restaurant. Someone was sitting happily maskless waiting for their food with an Aura carefully folded on the table next to them. Restaurants will say poo poo like “our vent hoods move 15,000 cubic feet per minute, that means the air is changed every few minutes!” But if that were true, they never would have gotten rid of smoking sections because the air would have been changed every few minutes...

NeonPunk posted:Don't think it'll be easy like that. They've been conditioned for violence and impulsive aggressive actions while everyone else hasn't really mentally prepared to retaliate or defend themselves. I was thinking about that too, because first of all, here’s where they set up in Ottawa and secondly, people who are accustomed to real violence aren’t impulsive or aggressive because they know the stakes. I hate violence, it makes me really sad, but, I mean, I’m more familiar with it than trucking company workers or whatever. Literally the two nicest guys I know were in JTF-2 and I’ve seen them go out of their way to be nice and talk down people who got in their faces. They’re extraordinarily sweet guys, I can’t really explain it, which would make them “pussies” by chud standards right? I don’t know, I’ve never been in a fight outside of work and I wouldn’t want to, I’ve never yelled at anyone off the clock, and that’s true for a lot of the guys I worked with especially as you start looking at Surveillance and Target Acquisition, Close Protection, CSOR JTF-X/2. The angry impulsive guys nearly always wash out on their courses and the final step for all of these is when the guys already serving decide if you’re likeable and easy to work with. It’s entirely possible that my view of all of this is skewed, but I can’t help but feel that there’s a difference between violence as these chuds imagine it, and real violence as a profession that you have to deal with on your conscience. I realize that for whatever reason even American special operations guys are loud, aggressive, swaggering and impulsive, so maybe that’s a cultural thing, or maybe the culture rewards them by making them visible so we only know about Chris Kyle, Eddie Gallagher, Black Rifle Coffee Company guys. If I remember both Alvin York and Audie Murphy were nice, quiet guys who hated violence, so it’s possible this is a new thing too.

I'm sure this is true. There's absolutely an aesthetic to the elastomeric masks. I'm just amused that the first person I talked to was like "hurr hurr are you a boy or a girl?" Speedrunning bigotry any%

No one will ever believe this because even the most liberal governors almost immediately adopted messaging that was essentially "this sucks so much, but you just have to do it for a little while longer I promise!" No one in a position to actually drive messaging ever tried to normalize masks or take the approach that wearing them isn't a big deal.
