    I wasn't talking to you. Clearly, you missed where the person that I addressed used those words

    Americans right to protect themselves

    So you can't name another tool that can be used from 200 yards or whether a gun can actually be used as a tool, instead of a weapon? Bows and spears are also weapons, my friend. Intent is surely important, but the singular flaw in your conclusion is intent is not always relevant when it comes...

    Americans right to protect themselves

    Do you really believe that? Tools usually multiply an input force for some specific function. On the other hand, weapons kill, maim or harm. Name another tool that you would use from a distance of 200 yards. Or for that matter, when would you ever use a gun as a tool, to blow off the top of a...

    Boss shuts me out

    I would posit that you have two options: 1) Leave, or 2) Wait out the director and hope this person leaves first Don't make any unnecessary waves, like e-mailing a kajillion paragraphs and attachments to a board member--they won't read it and likely will forward it to your boss and ask what...

    Career change at 27 - Engineering to Psychology

    Kamill what course of action did you end up taking? Could I suggest leveraging your professional knowledge in an adjacent field? For example, I think teaching engineering or math would add a lot of value to society. Here in the US, there is a critical need for STEM (Science Technology...

    gifted kids

    Gifted - yes, at grade 4. I was kicked out of the program around 10th grade due to falling grades. I did homework, but rarely studied until college. I had no study skills by then, because in grade school I would do my work quickly and then fuck around. I was distracted a lot, because I was...

    I want the last 10 seconds of my life back

    I have a dream

    Nice one! Based on this dream, I would totally agree that you are an introvert (ie when not in the presence of others, you shine). Feel free to share more dreams if you have them.

    The 2008 Recession Was Caused by Kindness

    The United States is not run by world-class leaders. Policy decisions in this country always have gaping loopholes big enough to drive a truck through. If it's there, someone will use it. Greed was the cause, pure and simple.

    How to change your type

    Being an Fe can be hard work. How would one go about "shutting off" the Fe and becoming an Se instead? For that matter, how would one permanently change any of their preferences?

    I have a dream

    Thanks for the advice. You're an extravert, right? Why would you be so pressed to go home? What was your interpretation of the dream's meanings?

    Tech talk

    Thanks for the feedback. My goal is to ensure the HDs aren't a major bottleneck. Unfortunately, thanks to the recent floods in Thailand, prices are still higher than normal. For the HDs you select, how are you factoring in price, performance (ie 5400 rpm, 7200 rpm, 15k rpm, SSD, cache, 3Gbps...

    Tech talk

    Best of luck with implementation. Should be a sweet setup if I read that site correctly. I need tech advice regarding RAID, as it happens. Currently, I have a RAID 0 with 2x 7200rpm HDDs. I am very satisfied with the performance. Thinking of building a new system with SSD HDs. Anyone know...
