I don't remember if this applies to you but look up a program called Per Scholas and they do free IT job training for low income people. Otherwise look into getting an A+ as a decent foot-in-the-door certification to start, google a guy called Professor Messer that has free videos covering everything. Good luck, SH/SC has good threads that helped me double my pay and quarter my work.

One of my older pals is a Law\Theology double major guy that was barely a tech guy and he's now doing AWS\Azure stuff from such training as extra work to support his kids in Florida, so I can confirm its effectiveness.

Good Tech Won't Save Us last week on tech and car culture, but I'm not sure about the host saying "ate rear end" every 90 seconds I assume he was saying ADAS or whatever.

I didn’t notice that. however I do notice I wish I spoke with the clarity and measure of Paris Marx, if not the accent.

How on earth is “getting footage from war zones” a job in the future? Everyone will have been born with a 400k camera phone in their hand. Especially if the economy is in tatters but you can get money for good footage, half the drat population will understand the basics of good filming.

There's a lot of worthwhile stuff they could be doing in science. My job is related to bioinformatics, and that field seems to heavily rely on a small number of people who basically just write bioinformatics software out of personal passion. The way academia works doesn't really reward anyone for writing software, despite it being vitally important (especially for something like genetics).

And then you also have "worthless private sector science" stuff, like 23andme. I know of at least two people who were basically poached by 23andme who previously contributed worthwhile things.

Semper Shitpost Ubique

That DALL-E thing from the latest Chapo is so strange. Stalin and Mao are banned by the word filter, so are a lot of Communist themes, but it allows other things. The compositions are often pretty weird, as others have said hands and faces too, it doesn't seem to really "get" symbolism. On the other hand, some of it's not bad.

Please no psychoanalyzing, or aesthetic shaming

according to this weird website he went to carol college https://www.influencewatch.org/person/matt-christman/

the website feels weird, like it’s doxing someone, but it’s all sourced from articles and episodes. of course it’s intended for the right wing to obsess and harass over. the information you seek might be somewhere deeper in there.

this is what came up right before I added “education” to the query btw

but probably american history
