Throwing all that shit in a box and spending half an hour digging through it is half the fun. Your organization systems distress me.

This post inspired me to go through my box of cables and I actually found a full HTC Vive headset with controllers in there buried several layers deep that I had completely forgotten about. I think it ended up there because it came with about a dozen cables so the cable box seemed like the natural place to dump it all.

Now I need to go through that box in detail to see what else might be lurking.


I made a couple thousand dollars off it squeezing in tasks here and there between meetings. Amazon Payments were challenging to redeem as I recall. I did more or less write the bulk of someone’s doctoral thesis. Kept giving me a dollar to summarize the findings of various psychology papers. The most memorable was the one where people were put in a room and someone sprayed “liquid ass” on the wall. The subjects given no explanation experienced higher levels of anxiety than those that were told there was a sewage leak being repaired. One of the strangest dollars I ever made. My PS4 and game collection was spectacular.


I’ll believe it when I hear farmers telling me it’s true


I missed the replacement window by three weeks and they offered to “repair” them for $180. Was not impressed. Judging by resale prices on eBay, it’s always the right ear bud that goes bad on gen1 pros


I also missed the window, Apple didn't send any communication about it. I saw it mentioned in a comment online and when I contacted support they told me to pound sand.


Bhattacharya is an unlicensed MD and completely unfit to lead NIH


> Bhattacharya is an unlicensed MD

Doesn’t this just mean not practicing? Broadly speaking, that per se seems fine.


You could have simply searched this versus posting, but he never completed a residency. To go into US medical school debt and not complete your training is strongly indicative of deep rooted problems.


Huh, are there credible suspicions around what went wrong?


It doesn't matter what went wrong- he is not a credible leader. If you are going to lead doctors, you should be a doctor. It doesn't matter why you didn't become a doctor.


There’s a BOY in the girls bathroom!!!


I visited the UBC cyclotron. Instead of fixing or replacing the $250,009 chair, they were flying your citizens to UCSF for treatment. Pathetic.


Remember when the director of NIH, an unlicensed MD, lied to congress two months ago and swore the award letters were coming? I do.


For now.


“Weeabo crap” was also my take on the article.
