  • Ya know, I wouldn’t mind ads,

    If google would just FUCKING LISTEN TO MY CURATING DECISIONS!!

    No, I’m never going to buy a car based off an ad. Block em all.

    No, I’m never switching insurance companies based on an ad.

    No, I’m not interested in mobile games. Ever.

    And yet when I tell google, block this content, not interested, I don’t want to see this particular topic.

    It just doesn’t fucking listen.

    You’d think this would be an absolute GOLD MINE of information that google would want, to better focus their ads,.

    But they just ignore it,

    It’s not about linking people to stuff they are interested in and taking a percentage… it’s about wasting everyone’s fucking time, and then they wonder why people run ad blockers.


  • Depends, What kind of programming are you interested in and what do you want to do with it?

    • Low level microcontrollers (PLC’s, Robotics, Control systems, ROS, Automation, etc)

    • Higher level systems (Software Engineering, Enterprise Software, Networking, etc)

    • UX programming (Graphical User interfaces, human-machine interfacing, websites, etc)

    • Video Game Programming

    • AI Programming, Machine Learning, Prompt Engineering, maybe Data Processing, Vision systems, Simulations, etc

    All depends on what you want to do with your programming. You’ll need to narrow down and focus on what you hope to do with it.






  • It’s a safety issue.

    Crazy inexplicable things can happen when modern cars have electrical control access to brakes/steering/throttle.

    Firmware doesn’t take right, download message emulates by accident another message, random bit flipping that even CRC checks miss.

    There’s no reason to risk any of that. Just shut the engine off.
