He found that Napoleon is 23 standard deviations above the mean. 1 in a trillion is something like 7 standard deviations. He found out that Napoleon was a 1 in a billion trillion commander and this didn't cause him to reevaluate his methodology at all.

yup. nobody really understands the human body. even the so-called doctors with 10 years. all they learn is how to inject you and look at you for miscolorations and touch you all under your shirt and other places. but when you come in and you say doc. I got a pain here here and it only happens when I do this this they don't know anything , completely clueless. I'm sorry but modern medicine is a joke and we might as well go back to stuff that really works like acupuncture or psychedelics. that's the truth nobody wants you to know though..

I had a pinched nerve on my back from benching and I looked up posts online and people were like " I've been living with this for 10 years, what do I do "and you know what I did? I just went back on the bench and just did the motion again. Bing bong nerve unpinched feeling great. that's reality but no doctor will ever tell you that . not if they want to keep their license

heres something cool about school:

as you may know FAFSA is all messed up this year. the website is all jacked up and something about the backend bureaucracy is jacked up too, lots of forms not submitting or getting lost or being delayed and all sorts of this.

my school serves low income students. most of them rely on fafsa

due to this enrollment is down, a percent nearly 1:1 with the fafsa shortfalls

due to this the admin is cutting classes which screws over both lecturers and students. if you cant get the classes you need you simply stop going to school. this further reduces enrollment.

at an old job i had, i had possibly the stupidest boss ever. this was a fortune 100 company and his hurricane "business continuity plan" for our team was that we would all go down to his local VFW hall... which was located 30 miles south of the city closer to the coast than our actual office was. thankfully we never had to put that into effect and he got fired for being stupid.

also he and his wife were swingers and he would hit on people at the office lol.

easy promotions here... or a quick termination. dangerous gambit but could be worth it

Dear Wired,

I never thought it'd happen to me, not living in the bay area and such - but it did, I can't believe it. My friend's tech-adjacent (design) company folded and has delivered unto me an unimaginable bounty of contraptions and gizmos; not to mention the famed "Aeron Chair" !

I wish I had more space, so that I could take more things, but this chair, some hard drives, and some esoteric video processing boxes will have to suffice.

To the readers out there, stay strong. Your dreams are just a day away from coming true.
