This is like a CIA Pulitzer. Nintendo could not have made a better endorsement of Yuzu's performance.

Only two types of people will still be a teacher with current pay expectations:

• those with a genuine passion for education, and get joy out of helping kids
• those with some other ulterior motive for having authority over children.

The amount of absurd power-tripping I suffered under in school makes me think there's way too much of the second group. We're definitely getting what we pay for here.

didnt work

I would hardly call that self-employed.

Dead smile of someone who had too many pictures taken of them as a child. I like to think I preserved my authenticity by being a little monster during pictures as a child.

Sitting is boring, emails are boring, not owning capital is boring. Religion is not, plants are not, sunlight is not. Building things is cool when they're yours or your friends'. Kids are fun.

I feel like some guys tend to be wired to really enjoy the grind, but you have to get regular little indications towards progress, and kinda let yourself get 'addicted'.

Well that's a fairly consistent pov. "God of the Gaps" is what it's called. Ostensibly, that sort of person accepts new evidence for things, so it's probably not one of the worst ways to think

This is the nerdiest way to lift weights. I'm gonna be so obsessed with it, I can already tell.

I'm gonna compete so hard now

Top tier comment, artfully put.

Trick is to go southern with it. Merge the last two vowel sounds into almost-one. Dub-ee-eh

That's actually kinda amazing..

This whole post is just so dang creative

I've been looking for something like this for years, cool.

Dopamine used to be considered the generic pleasure chemical, but I think it's not anymore. Has more to do with reward pathways and learning, maybe?

Yup. Imagine a portable hype beast that loves all the same stuff you do.

It's such a natural human function. In our super advanced society, it really ought to take as much sacrifice as daily bathroom breaks do.

What? First of all, Amtrak is often more comparable to air travel as far as alternatives go.
Second, those Amtrak delays are genuinely upwards of 5 hours. I had a trip leaving at 9 pm, and they had me waiting at that seedy train stop until 1am.
Not their fault though, it was Union Pacific's fault.

Nobody does wildlife conservation better than hunters and fisherfolk. Midwesterners will install hundreds of trail cams and kill invasive species on their property for free, in collaboration with local agencies. Controlled burns, population tracking+management, etc, all for free, out of love for the land and the wild creatures. And to make it easier to catch the stuff they want.

African wildlife preserves that are funded by hunting licenses, just like US land, are more successful because everyone involved hates poachers for their own reasons.

It's actually my main travel computer. I bring it to work with a Bluetooth keyboard and a little nreal glasses display if I need it. I find that the form factor reduces back and neck strain by allowing me to use different muscle groups. I changed the desktopofe controls to map to a bunch of keyboard shortcuts to make it so that I rarely need the keyboard. I mostly do coding and research on it.

At home, I continue my work on my hammock.
