Strange guardians of the galaxy vibes from the 3 in the front. Drax, starlord, and rocket.

Eh it’s not that bad but I’m not ready to start a new user yet.

Aha I will modify my last in that case. No harm no foul, but it’s got a little more background in it than necessary if you weren’t doubling down lol.

I ran a research lab in a university for 15+ years. I guarantee there’s no money in it.

Companies pay pennies on the dollar to research groups to solve problems with undergrads, grad students, and a bit of project manager time and to stay afloat, you have to over-buy projects as favors and to get publications. It is not unusual to run 7 or 8 projects at a time all on shoestring budgets in the lab. With a PhD I never broke 100k.

Maybe there’s some money in the business school, but nobody is getting rich quick for no work in academia.

Edit: reducing the wall of text

I think you’ve got your adjectives pretty crazily backward about academia.

All of this. It should also be said that if you don’t understand something in the manual that’s ok too, but at least do a quick search to see if you can solve it. You ask when you bottom out, not to skip effort.

Sometimes you may find that there are 2 or 3 things you could try and you want some help before investing too much more time (as long as you invested some). That’s also totally fine to reach out for.

I think that depends a lot on how available public transit is where you are.

I’d happily ride a bus for an hour except the bus lines near me would require 15 to 30 mins of driving, pay for parking, then wait for the line I want which only runs 2 or 3 times a day. OR I could drive direct.

Planes are the only time a lot of us can reasonably interface with public transit.

My FIL wanted to go eco for our last trip to visit my BIL and to get from Wilmington to Chicago there was literally ONE train per day that takes over 24 hours to arrive and it left at like 545am? It’s totally obnoxious.

Idk, Gary, IN isn’t that nice tbf.

Bout tree fiddy.

In murican that sounds odd.

Vim is life. And use good variable names.

Alligators.

I’ve already added caveman to my list as well

Watch the core. It’s great. Extra entertaining if your background is in science or engineering.

The tone of the movie is serious, but it’s basically its own parody which is great.

Shawshank, good will hunting, the martian, and bonus: the core lol.

Does that one show a bunch of Italy? I didn’t mind that.

The first one is… Fine. The other two are a fuckin slog.

It insists upon itself.

Weird trilogy already.

I played more perfect dark, but yes.
