I have a family who lack the arrogance required to believe their singular field of expertise makes them an expert on everything simply because a piece of paper says they are an expert in one field

oh so like... common sense

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

Granted my grandfathers library encompassed tens of thousands of books but thats neither here nor there

He would go to auctions and just buy boxes of books and read them by the hundreds for his entire life

Goals tbh

cs major, (again no disrespect) why are you drivint a truck and not working a job in your field making 100k+?

Same reason I'm an EDM Major and not leading a Disaster Response Agency

You can't always get a job in the field

Because I don't have my degree

Trucking is a means to an end

Especially with Computer Science since many of those jobs are given to Pajeet and Ahmed

Oof, meant to say last night that Bernie gave the ol' "We Need Doctahs, Phahmahcists, and other bright peopul from othah Cuhntrees"

"Especially with Computer Science"

Especially with coding based jobs you mean? @Omar_The_OMAP

Either one

Because they will work for less money

Making them an appealing hire to Corporates because they get to keep money instead of paying someone domestic 100k

is the bizarre Ameri-phobic Scandian back?

Yup

Does this confirm that Warren is the favorite? <:thunk:462282216467333140> <:thunk:462282216467333140> <:thunk:462282216467333140>

tulsi did awful

Tulsi dismantles Harris, that's fine. Tulsi takes aim at Warren, red fucking alert

Lol @Tiberius Comment on Engineers making problems for themselves to solve.

Can confirm as an Engineer that's almost 90% true

she had many opportunities to school these retards on the issue with the kurds

@nimble_newt ever play factorio? <3

@Mooncrest I used to play it a lot during undergrad.
Haven't touched it in a while. It's a great game. Kind of a time sink though and destroyer of GPAs everywhere lol

A true engineer can't resist the allure of factorio

inb4 5000 hours

@UnScottable the problem is screwing people on the Kurds means agreeing with trump

In the Democratic primary agreeing with trump is an instant game over

ye tru... we cant have that

@Tiberius Since you come from such a formally educated family did you find yourself reading a lot of your grandparents books coming up?
We have a growing library in our house and I'm always open to recommendations.

@nimble_newt Meditations by emporer Marcus Aurelius

Not to interject, but if I could only recommend one book, it would be that

<@411687472829956098> I'll check our book catalog and see if we have it already.
Roman stuff is definitely up my alley. I have tons of it that I haven't read yet. My backlog is insane.

I came from the opposite of a formaly educated family. I'm the first person on either side of the family to go to college. Wew laddd

I've been deep diving into medical ethics for a while.

Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power by Daron Acemoglu is great @nimble_newt
