When I go to Amazon and search for a hammer and it bombards me advertisements of how I need an Echo Dot and need to watch some stupid movie about getting a sex change.
I never worried about other people and things. I think it'd be great to be 25 years younger, there are so many possibilities now that did not exist when I graduated from college.
I graduated with about $3k due mostly to taking a research job that had great experience, but paid poorly for a year,but worked up to three jobs the rest of my college stay. It also took me an extra two years to graduate, but when I did I had four years or hard experience and had a lot of industry connections.
I had a good friend, same major who graduated with $55k of debt.That was a lot if money back in the 90's pre dotboom.
The best first start is getting your first job. After that, it's all you and there's nothing you can learn at MIT that isn't freely available on the web.
Hollywood has already lost to amateur content for the vast majority of content. And there is a very finite number of times Jeb can jump out of a helicopter.
The only time I'm ever logged into gmail and watching videos is when I start up moon landing/flat earth/hollow earth/contrail videos. I don't watch them, I just like to mess with whatever google is tracking me for:)
I've done 2 coast to coast road trips in the past year and don't recall a single highway mileage sign. I think they could get rid of all of them and very few people would notice. Why no do that instead? And what about all the cities being laid out on 1 mile grids?

Almost everyone for the last 4.5 billion years has had an almost non-existent voice.

We're all going to die soon.

Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
Nobody left here is an engineer. Just comic book nerds.
that would be nice
Or not as planes started falling out of the sky like in The Andromeda Strain.
Hollywood has already lost to amateur content for the vast majority of content. And there is a very finite number of times Jeb can jump out of a helicopter.
And still almost no content
System engineers don't write application software. They certainly don't use any.
I thought that was Willie Wonka.
it would look like crap

I've ordered beer in England and I don't care
Cost. Besides, everybody does use metric where appropriate.
That's decimal, not metric.

You do realize that typing any of those directly to google is faster and easier. Too bad most people don't have smartphones.
It's required by law in the US also.
Information that 14,000/7,7000,000,000, 1.8182e-5% of people know, use or care.
Celsius is just a bad unit. Nobody uses that in science, everything is in kelvin.
" Less so for things not often needed." Unless you are a chemist or in school, how often does someone need to know that?
Cyberspace is more promising anyway. No pesky c limits and such. Actual vulcans and a reset switch when the battle with the empire goes bad.
