UnderpantsWeevil, to linuxmemes in Nvidia...

Hey, listen, y’all. Nividia is barely scraping by so of course they’ve got to cut a few corners somewhere.

Also almost certainly doesn’t work as the headline describes.

“Teenagers cures cancer” is shameless click bait.

Insane that a company will pay you a 20% premium to hire someone that they’ll spend 6-months training just to watch said person fly off to another firm.

Contracting is even worse. Bring someone on to do menial piecework at 2x-5x the median company salary, then kick them out so you can bring on another person who has no idea how your company operates to do the same entry-level jobs. All so you don’t have to tell investors how many people are actually on your payroll.

No wonder the business failure rate is so fucking high.

At 14 that’s incredible

It’s incredible to have the opportunity to mentor with a senior research analyst at 3M.

Wish more kids were given this kind of opportunity without going six figures into debt

Selective enforcement is the name of the game. Ken Paxton won’t be using this rule to take over a school district in Bastrop.

I’ve seen people lose their shit over babies with pierced ears and young children getting tattoos. There’s all sorts of dental work you go through as a kid that you have functionally no control over.

Even had someone chew me out because a foster kid I was taking care of got a haircut (three years old and she’d literally never had one before).

At some point, it is the parent’s duty to take care of the child, and that extends to medical decisions with profound long-term consequences. I get wanting to change the culture, but the degree to which people exaggerate the harm of circumcision struggles to eclipse the degree to which it is defended.

Cutting off your legs also makes them easier to clean.

There is some substantive utility to legs that doesn’t extend to the bit of flesh around the tip of your dick.

I remember idiots on reddit swearing it lowered my sensitivity by a lot but if that were true…

Certainly possible, but also not even necessarily a bad thing.

I should note that there’s another big knock on benefit.

Circumcised men compared with uncircumcised men have also been shown in clinical trials to be less likely to acquire new infections with syphilis (by 42%), genital ulcer disease (by 48%), genital herpes (by 28% to 45%), and high-risk strains of human papillomavirus associated with cancer (by 24% to 47% percent)

Which, particularly back in the 60s-90s period, was a bfd given the stigma around contraception and other genital protection measures. Significantly less so now when condoms are so readily available. But even then…

It’s a non-issue but people have to be mad for something I guess (because there’s no other big reasons to be mad/s).

It does feel like people are looking for something to fixate on as a rabble-rousing issue that’s a-political-ish. But the loudest anti-circumcision advocates tend to have truly awful surrounding politics. It feels like a… trojan issue.

Huge difference between raw intellectual capacity and exercised utility.

You can have a 10 gallon bucket, but it’ll only carry that much water if you fill it.

The one she sites the most is sexism though there isn’t actually a lot of evidence of this outside of her own testimony.

Sexism is so rampant on Reddit that saying “I’m a woman” and getting bombarded by creeps and freaks is trivial. Less a commentary on her, specifically, and more on the degenerate nature of the community.

She’s made multiple comics about how her critics don’t read her comics and just dislike them due to woman.

She’s producing liberal political comics, and she’s a woman, so the chuds will be out in full force screaming at her.

At a certain point, though, its just…

She’s fine.

She’s very clearly low effort. The art is flat, the comedy is mid, the political edginess is ten years out of date.

I wonder if Netflix will be signing her any time soon.

There are few things sweeter than sleeping in on a Saturday and waking up to a clean, quiet house.

Waking up early, making pancakes for a couple of gleeful little munchkins, and then going out to the park to run around and have fun is one of those things you forget you used to love doing when you were younger.

Now, if a principal or administrator had some balls

You don’t become a public school middle manager in Texas by showing balls. You’d get weeded out before you even got through the substitute program for teaching gym class.
