Easy to see why Robin Williams took matters into his own hands.

Terrible. They should be out out of their misery the moment they no longer have cognitive abilities and are basically goldfish… what a nightmare.

What becomes of these people? They just live in a vegetative state for 60 years? I think it should be legal to euthanize people in advanced states given consent by families. I know I’d never want to live that nightmare and put my loved ones through that.

That’s what I hate about all of this. Tech worker !== SWE with experience… you start looking at those numbers and it’s not even news worthy most of the time. Companies are trimming useless positions that aren’t necessarily required like recruiters.

Reply to How do you guys read books? by HalboAngel

I read really slowly too. I read at a really fast talking pace. Like it’s still possible to read out loud but would be impossible to keep up. I noticed how slow I was while I was in school and had to read 6 novels a term and it took an ungodly amount of time outside of class. People say reading more makes you faster, but I think they’re full of shit because I was an English major and read a metric shit ton during and after schooling. If I actively try to read faster my speeds improve but it gets exhausting and I find it way less enjoyable. The problem is, I also find reading a 600 page book in 30 hours or something really unenjoyable too. Like, I want to read faster, but my comprehension drops and I lose the writer’s voice.
