    I mean spotting it in only 3 days feels like a pretty big feat in of itself, unless this kid had access to a database on one particular star’s brightening and dimming or it’s potential weeble wobbling about, he did in 3 days what usually takes weeks at a minimum if it’s a planet the size of jupiter or bigger.

    That feels like the biggest scumbag move tbch

    Like it’s statistically impossible that your client’s ex that you helped them divorce was the only person you’d ever love.

    Also, it exposes you to accusations of improperly representing your client’s best interests since we now know you could have been incentivized to pickme dance over how you stopped the divorcing spouse from taking everything they could have.

    DungeonCast School vs Gygax School.

    One comes from the influence of tabletop streams that focus on narrative building because it’s got a broader audience appeal and they’re usually close friends with the players at the table and want to hype up their characters.

    The other comes from the generational trauma Gary Gygax inflicted on nerdom by insisting that the DM wins by killing all the PCs.

    Tyson IMO went service industry worker crazy without the usual pressure of getting fired for talking back or snarking at the customers.

    Because being tapped to be the new Science Communicator Supreme sounds like a huge honor until you realize you’re now cursed to constantly be dealing with having to rehash the same bullshit you’ve long since lost interest in because of repetition over and over again on morning news shows, when you’re not instead dealing with Stephen Colbert trying to Checkmate Atheists you over your own field of study.

    Software Engineering, and it was more intended as a build project than as an academic venture. We would basically have been setting out to strip out all the addiction features Social Media is built with and see what can be built with what’s left and what new ideas can make it a good experience for the user without queuing them for ranked rage fest matches against whoever else is in the comment section they clicked on in the rage bait article.

    I actually had an offer from my advisor to study for a PhD under him by basically taking on a major coding project to develop a non toxic format of social media, or at least to get as close to that as possible. I also remember it involving some non crypto uses of blockchain software potentially but my prof was more interested in the complex web development aspects of it and actually got my web design professor in on pitching the potential for it to me.

    We had me enroll in a master’s level web design class to trial run it, and it turned out I wasn’t the webcode wunderkind they thought I might be given my good web design work for my courses so far. I’m creative but not a savant basically. We all agreed that my PhD potential was best sought after more design experience got under my belt.
