  • True true yeah don’t expect to see everything. I guess narrowing my interests:

    • technical museums
    • history
    • food
    • above all socializing, I have a hope that unlike the suburban life in my state there are still dens of humanity where people talk to each other and have spirited debates in the public square so perhaps bars? But not the loud sports kind.

    And thanks! Was considering listing interests but was worried about missing out on things I didn’t yet know I had an interest in.










  • All depends on the climate your in, and the insulation of your house. You can build houses which don’t need AC even in hot places by going underground or making earth ships. Yet with traditional construction and insulation in many places AC is almost required. Pretty efficient anyway, just a heat pump.



  • I think you guys are fighting about different things; you need to have a unified definition of grammar.

    One is saying that without some rules on how the words relate to one another we couldn’t convey our meaning.

    The other is saying that grammar, I think perhaps “proper grammar” is made up by humans, and so doesn’t have any intrinsic worth compared with something else made up by humans.

    Both are correct, the important thing is that whichever grammar we collectively decide on. Intrinsically worthless or not, we need to have some unified definition, codified or not, so that we have the necessary degree of specificity for a given situation to transfer information between parties.



  • In the US so hopes are up but certainly wont rest on any hypothetical laurels until I show up for the first day— I think that’s the crutch is being sincere without showing how much I desperately want the job— in the interviews I made some good jokes and think I showed my interested were aligned— thank you for the advice!
