Shame Boy posted:Sure the water table in Florida is like 2 feet underground at all times, and all the rock and soil is highly permeable all the way down to bedrock (which is like miles down), but I'm sure smart genius tonystark elonmusk has thought of that having the tunnels submerged in water is a pretty good solution to the question of "what happens if a tesla bursts into flames in the middle of the tunnel?" once again, you're showing how stupid you are

That was the library of Alexandria IIRC the sack of Constantinople was where a bunch of western European states paid Venetians to sail them to Palestine for the fourth crusade. Venice was mad at the Byzantine Empire for whatever reason so they dumped the crusaders off in their capitol instead

Shame Boy posted:Like gently caress, humanity's had tens of thousands of years to engage with the fundamentals of our existence and look what we did in that time. Hook me up to the hedonism pod and gimme that button to mash, let another species have its chance to become ascended beings and/or ruin everything. ive been listening to a lot of ancient history stuff (creation of the celts, the aztecs, roman culture, etc) and it really does feel like every once in a while, some cultures do figure it out. thing is, they're massacred by the warrior culture as soon as the two meet. its the "we need to murder and subjugate everyone that isn't us" cultures that spread, mostly because they murder and subjugate everyone that has different ideas

And evidence of "faking it" can be stuff like "went outside and looked happy" My brother is in labor law and he heard from a colleague that if you sue your employer for giving you covid, they'll scrounge your social media Any recent photo of you in public in the state of Florida is grounds for immediate dismissal. If you go there, the lawyer can argue you don't give a poo poo about getting covid

Shame Boy posted:Like I think I mentioned it but I receive random crazy spam from a few people in my city every time the city council talks about funding light rail or anything besides roads, where they go on and on about how OUT OF TOUCH city hall is because OBVIOUSLY the ONE THING citizens want transportation funding to go to is MORE AND BETTER ROADS!!! How can we POSSIBLY think about funding some DUMB THING NOBODY WOULD USE when I SAW A POTHOLE JUST THE OTHER DAY!!! To add another layer on top of this: this intense navel gazing is actively rewarded by literally every aspect of our culture & political system because it makes people more pliant consumers The problems that can't be ignored, pushed back to be the next administrations problem, shot, or shouted down at a city council meeting (ex. COVID) have an added bonus of making everyone slowly even more insane

shrike82 posted:there's a cottage industry of resume fixers (there's one here on SA who posted banner ads for a while) 1) polishing bullet points actually does help. it shows that you're smart enough to do the dance and that you have soft skills that don't show up in a resume otherwise 2) i liken interviewing to dating and both have multi-billion dollar industries centered around "please be normal". saying "make your resume normal and you'll get a job" is a degree or two away from "make a bunch of money by investing well" without someone to tell you exactly what "normal" is

indigi posted:how do you show on a resume, do you mean including animated gifs It depends but a good example would be instead of saying "I'm good at my job" on your resume, you should say "I exceeded X Y & Z metrics". The latter tells me you were good at your job without you explicitly saying it Same with the attention to detail thing. Don't tell me you have it, show it by having a really slick resume that you cared enough to run through spellcheck
