  • Also, after getting a job how do you learn new things. Since your job will be taking a huge chunk of your time. Education is a scam and I am a removed.

    A question I’m still struggling with, but essentially the paths are self-directed learning or post-education training. Depending on your situation some employers will pay for that stuff, but uhhh good luck on that one.

    I have no other interests except linux, scripting and web scraping and that’s a big problem. I really have no idea what I should learn or make.

    There are a few subfields that fall under that umbrella. Linux skills are a great fit for embedded development, which is a great field if you can break in, but is very challenging. For this you’ll want to learn tools like Yocto, as well as rounding out your low level knowledge of hardware protocols and alternate embedded operating systems. Another available path would be doing back end work with databases and hosting. I’m not as familiar in this area, but you’ll want to learn docker, kubernetes, or other containerization tools.

    Separately, a possible field to go for is something called “Sales engineering.” Skills for this are a bit harder to nail-down, but you should focus on tools that let you build applications quickly for demonstration purposes. Python and other interpreted languages are common. The idea for sales engineers are to be versatile and able to communicate effectively about products you are building.








  • Well I can say with some certainty that no matter what your idea is, something stupider has made it to print in Marvel or DC probably both.

    On top of that, I’ve found that people tend to be more critical of things they perceive as amateur efforts, even if the quality is the same. If you watched a movie scene by an incompetent director and catch a mistake you’ll probably be derisive, but put the same mistake in a movie by a renowned director you’ll probably wonder if it isn’t intentional and serves some artistic purpose and might not react as negatively even if it is genuinely a mistake.

    For your issue what I would say is that you should consider what you want people to find compelling in your story and then ask yourself if this detail serves that vision. Its possible your friend is reacting to something undercutting the draw of your work, but it is just as possible they just aren’t getting it. Seek more opinions if you want to understand how others are reading it, but ultimately you have to trust your vision.






  • This whole affair is sad as fuck and didn’t need to happen. This man’s family was annihilated last week because world leaders are a bunch of corrupt ghouls who can’t get hard without blood and conquest. He went on to try and commit violence against a group at most tangentially related to the ones who killed his family.

    If anyone in Washington for the past 10 years had done their best to avoid war with Iran we wouldn’t be here. If Netanyahu didn’t want to escape justice for his corruption we wouldn’t be here. If this man felt like he had any avenues but violence we wouldn’t be here. Its so fucking miserable
