Man, Mao's policies got so many people killed that "only" 3-4m people died of famine.

He's got an incredible kill count.

This is making my brain hurt

Counter counter point: a great number of dicks have touched a vagina

I'm pretty certain most of my work inevitably ends up being related to a time issue

Ah, well, blessing in disguise then. For a good chunk of time software engineers were in demand. For whatever reason, I can't remember if it was embedded or application level though.

That's one thing I appreciate about Lemmy. Without a doubt you are all people of logic.

One of the things that wasn't too high up on my complaints but I have the opportunity to complain now about: I had a serious plan ready to apply to immigrate to Canada. I'm in Software, I was learning French, financially sound and healthier.

Then my ex wife fucks a dude I don't know and of course we already have a kid. No more going to Canadia.

Hahaha, like the Ventricular Assist Devices.

They bore a one-inch diameter hole in the heart, suture a BLDC impeller motor (VAD) on, then cut into the aorta or whatever, suture fancy material stuff to a tube that then redirects the blood flow through the motor. And a fancy cable that exits your abdomen and connects to the electronics.

It was the single most disturbing thing I've ever had the displeasure of working with. I really wish I didn't know how it worked.

You know, I sort of guessed where you were going when you mentioned NDAs, and I was still caught off guard.

"Pay you without having to use PTO?'

Ha.

Look, when I found out that Europeans get a thing called "holiday " that isn't two or three days in a row, I was almost ready to riot.

For a moment, I thought "hmm. What if we all said 'No, I shot Brian Thompson'" sort of like what happened in Spartacus, but then I remembered that all 6000 slaves or whatnot were executed
