nah there was a whole episode where people were banging next to where his dissertation was in the NYU library. he ends up banging a girl that was interested in his paper while policing the library next to his paper.

nah back in the 90s, it was a pretty good gig. not rich rich. Ross wasn't rich rich either. but you made more money than your average Joe and society was way cheaper back then, even in new york. there were also way less phds, so there was higher demand and cost of education was way less. I dropped out of my program in the late 80s for a private sector job, but my friends that continued lived pretty decently.

Ross wasn't a grad student though. he was a PhD researcher + professor. back in the 90s, that would've been a decent gig.

in a multi lane highway, nobody expects you to be blazing when you're on the outside lane. people only get pissed when you're driving limit on the inside lane. if u wanna drive comfortably, just use the right lanes so people can pass you if they want. if it's a single lane highway, don't give a shit about others as long as you're not way under the limit. there are almost always overtake sections of those highways where you see the "slower traffic use right lane".

plus, there are roads with limits higher than 65 all over the place and there are recreational things you might want to do with your car.

is it really that bad compared to other things on the market? I did some Salesforce and some hubspot stuff and I wanted to off myself with those too lmao

that's not how it works tho unfortunately. you're allowed to dress up like an officer. it's about whether you impersonate one in other words, make people believe you are one. if simply dressing like a cop is illegal, the male stripper industry would collapse.

most IDEs are pretty decent at it if you configure them correctly. I used intelliJ and it knows the difference. use the refactor feature and it'll crawl references, not just rename all instances.

crazy how fast they ruined the reputation of this company. just a couple months ago, duo mascot and Duolingo streaks were cool and fun. they had a good thing going. but now it's just another shit tech company again. they lost all the good will in like a month.

you're quoting yourself but you never said that. you said maybe Gabe could be entering his villain phase, as if he's not there yet. thus implying you meant he's not a villain, so we shouldn't assume the worse. I get what you say now, but you did not say what you meant in your original comment.

nah. you need to be pretty fucking terrible to build a business where your share of it is worth a billion dollars. you do so by cheating your customers, employees, and competition. valve is no exception.

there are plenty of companies out there that pay their employees decently, make good products, and compete fairly. those companies usually aren't worth that much and their leaders aren't making a billion dollars from it. you're right that the tax policies are shit, but it's not like you ever accidentally become a billionaire. you do so by cheating the tax system too and screwing the general public.

and nobody said anything about killing people.

I'm not. your post is literally saying we should be nicer to him because he's not Elon. you're saying we should be easy on him because he might be doing some good. I'm saying we shouldn't.
