Had an assistant professor who taught my required MATLAB course freshman year. She barely spoke English. She would start speaking in her native language when a student who was from her country asked a question. The week’s projects were due Monday nights. Insane stuff. Calc III was hard enough, but the prof who taught it at my school was legitimately a genius and it seemed like he thought teaching was a waste. If you could grasp the concepts from the text you were fine. I remember the final was four problems. A full half of the class flipped through it, got up and left without so much as putting pen(cil) to paper. It was probably the only final I ever spent all the allotted time on.

Nobody is carping about the O-1 or whatever. The H-1B is a complete scam and serves only to squeeze Americans. There are H-1Bs working in paid internships. Why do they need to do an internship if they're "skilled?"

The “tech right” basically pivoting to “replacement, but legally” is not terribly unpredictable but still disheartening. From Vivek it can be expected: everyone is tribal about some group, it might as well be your own. From Elon it’s incredibly disappointing but at the end of the day he at least has allowed himself to get ratio’d on his own platform for his take. The average IQ on the subcontinent is 76. This means the number of “geniuses” coming from the 1.4 billion people in India has a hard cap somewhere in the range of 1,400 (and that’s with a pretty loose definition of “genius.”)

Marcivicci Barnette murdered his ex-girlfriend and then another man when he jacked his car. Maier Brown stabbed a postal worker to death. Len Davis was a police officer convicted of murder-for-hire of a witness to his misconduct in an internal affairs investigation. Brandon Basham and Chadrick Fulks escaped from prison, kidnapped, raped, and murdered Alice Donovan and Samantha Burns. Samantha Burns' remains have yet to be found. Now they never will be because the government no longer can hold the needle over her killers' heads. Thomas Sanders killed a 12 year old girl in the course of a kidnapping. Kaboni Savage conspired to firebomb a house where a federal witness lived and as a result murdered six people (four of them children). Overall he was convicted of killing 12 people as RICO predicates. Obviously not exhaustive.

The AfD isn’t nearly as far right as they should be, and that’s only because the commies (similar to you) that run Germany made it illegal to tell the truth there.

Leftists crying about a billionaire exerting influence over politicians is hilariously rich. AfD is headed by a lesbian whose partner is a Sri Lankan immigrant lmao

The problem isn't the guns.

This mustache would like a word

Twice. Both were for actual spambots.

The only work Christmas parties I ever went to were the ones my unit in children's services had. Eight of us, plus any spouses that wanted to subject themselves to the particular brand of humor CPS investigators tend to exhibit among themselves when inebriated. Supervisor paid for everything. I drank a lot more back then so any chance at free booze I jumped at. We pooled our money and bought the supervisor scratchers for Christmas and we'd make a game of trying to pay the tab with them. 2/3 years he was successful in covering the whole tab - typically low four figures - with the scratch-off winnings.

If it’s true that he committed a fatal OPSEC error because he wanted to flirt with some chick, it would be the least surprising thing to happen to an Italian since Andrew Cuomo’s downfall.

lol the number of "RW-adjacent" people bolstering the "who cares it was a CEO" communist narrative is almost as sad as it is not surprising. You either have a society in which people are moved towards retributive justice when witnessing a premeditated murder on camera or you don't have a functioning society. It's that simple.

I know of a surefire way to win money at 3 card monte. Pic unrelated

It’s a pro job. Makes 3 the least likely scenario. With some insider trading rumors floating around that could add another scenario.

From what I understand blaming the opposition citing their supposed North Korean sympathies is rather popular among S Korean politicians.

No, the balled fist of the music industry.

He must have found out she's about to turn 40.

Yeah, must have been the economy. Nothing else. Nope. Can’t think of anything.

That's really the rub here. Mexico is incredibly corrupt and mendacious, which is unbecoming of its true status as a client state of the USA. Its entire ruling class, including Sheinbaum (interesting name for a Mexican), is parasitic and enriches themselves off cartel bribes or siphoning funds provided by the United States, like the example in the quote above. As a result, Mexico is teetering on failed state status and in some areas within its borders almost certainly has no governing power.

I was listening to one of the post-mortem interviews and a couple of the former Kamala staffers indicated that they knew that they needed to move to center on several issues, particularly social ones, but thought it wouldn't be credible given how far left her actual policy commitments had been. In particular, they spent hours attempting to strategize a way to respond to the "they/them" ad but ultimately couldn't come up with anything that stuck. Also while the media was saying how terrible team Trump's strategy to get out the vote was apparently the Kamala campaign staffers were completely clueless as to how to slow it down.

My first drum set blew everything else away. I was 9.

Congrats on the house closing, Roundy. Keep coming here but delete your reddit account and never go back. There is help for terminal reddit brain.

There's an article this week, I think in The Athletic, that essentially asks the question "aside from reputation, what's the actual difference between the Jets and the Giants since Tom Coughlin left?" What, indeed.

"Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses. The release of that song was basically 9/11 for me as a retail worker during November/December.
