Like the US. But it only applies to old school TV, not streaming services, and doesn’t even seem to be enforced well where it does apply

Yea I only have a bachelor’s in physics, can’t explain the black magic fuckery that is electromagnetism. Go find someone with a PhD, I bailed to be an engineer

An actual textbook cover. I mean… An ancient grimoire of the dark arts

Edit: I almost forgot about the sequel

I mean, yea. The people designing the AC to DC power supplies often don’t care what you use them for, why would they bother putting schematics for a real load on their diagram?

This needs an edit to “what if I see a billionaire” after that bee that took a dive down the dude’s throat.

Too soon?

So. Funny story. Back when I was incredibly new to Linux, I was trying to move everything from my downloads folder to somewhere else. So I navigated into the downloads directory on the command line and sent something like

“sudo mv /* ~/misc”

when I meant to type

“sudo mv ./* ~/misc”

Yea… That was a fun learning experience and hilarious way to utterly fuck everything on that machine. Luckily it was just an old laptop I’d installed Linux on to mess around and learn, no real damage done

I mean, I agree with you, I’d never pay for a Matlab license for myself if I ever decide to go the private engineering consultant route. Just sharing my experience that yes, it’s used in the professional world.

I’ve had more than one job where Matlab was used extensively, guess my coworkers and I aren’t real engineers.

I’d rather use something else, but if it’s what the group already uses, fine, I’ll do it

Also, I don’t do a ton of true programming on it. It’s a fancy calculator, and occasionally I make a GUI app with it

I am in fact an engineer and a nerd. Or as many of us like to call it, an enginerd

Edit: I wouldn’t call Matlab my favorite though… But yes I use it. I mean, I’m on Lemmy… Like loads of users here, I like FOSS. So I’d say python is probably my favorite

I’ve literally never heard anyone call it A.P.P. (and I mean that literally literally, not figuratively literally)

Is this a specific cultural thing? A generational thing? Geography based slang? Why would anyone do this.

I just got back from a doc visit for a shoulder injury. They told me “yea sometimes muscular guys like you fool us and we miss a tear because their delts are overcompensating”

All I heard was “you’re muscular”, going to be riding that high for a bit. Luckily no rotator cuff tear, probably just a bad sprain, will be back to bench press soon enough
