Having watched from the outside as other people make this transition, it never looks fun. At least in large organizations, it just looks like a ton of added responsibility without enough additional authority to make meaningful change.
I remember having a period of time like this when I was enlisted - I was held responsible for the completion of tasks but not given authority to reward or correct the behavior of those in my charge. I would absolutely loathe being in that position again in the civilian world.
I don't think that's quite accurate.
The "understand it well enough to explain it to a professor" clause is carrying a lot of weight here - if that part is fulfilled, then yeah, you're actually learning something.
Unless of course, all of the professors are awful at their jobs too. Most of mine were pretty good at asking very pointed questions to figure out what you actually know, and could easily unmask a bullshit artist with a short conversation.
Materials that are actually bulletproof to anything more than 22LR and birdshot don't dent like this.
I thought it was widely known
It is, except by those that it applies to.
I like the combination of the absurdly-new tech and a nearly 70 year old front sight post design. Not even a red dot.
FSP gang represent, no other AR sight is better, fight me.
Ready to fly...
latest pew
Heh. Pew go pew pew.
The chunky, thundering sound of the ID logo smashing into the screen when starting up Quake 3 Arena. So many LAN parties...
Sure, sometimes people leave ads open after the item is no longer available. But only asking if it's available is still an obnoxious waste of time. The first message from a potential buyer should have something useful in it. Further contact info, meetup availability, clarifying questions, an offer if the price isn't firm, etc.
Maybe lead with, "If this is still available, blah blah blah" if it makes the buyer feel better. The buyer probably has all that in mind when they decide to contact the seller anyway, so they can take 30 seconds to include it in the first message and actually get the process moving instead of holding it up for a one-word reply from the seller.
If you buy enough items that stale ads are actually taking up a meaningful amount of your time, then copy-paste as needed.
Imma get real pedantic here - "thermite" is just a composition, like C4, TNT, or PETN. Those drones show just one of many specific delivery methods, spraying or dropping pre-ignited thermite as they moves To say that "[thermite] sprays flammable liquid everywhere" isn't correct, but burning thermite can be spread like those drones do.
My heart smiles at the thought of the first crew to actually command this thing in a war zone pulling security on some unknown pile of rubble and being awoken at 0347 by their tank unexpectedly dumping its entire payload on an "enemy" that it hallucinated.
Granted, dumb privates do this too, but it's funnier to think about the tank doing it all by itself.
I was presented with this captcha before completing an online purchase this morning on my phone. The window is too small to see all of the images or the "Verify" button.
I did eventually realize that I can swipe upwards to scroll down a bit and see the rest, but there's no visual indicator to do so. It took me a bit to figure it out.
One of these is not like the others.
