One of the things that wasn't too high up on my complaints but I have the opportunity to complain now about: I had a serious plan ready to apply to immigrate to Canada. I'm in Software, I was learning French, financially sound and healthier.
Then my ex wife fucks a dude I don't know and of course we already have a kid. No more going to Canadia.
Hahaha, like the Ventricular Assist Devices.
They bore a one-inch diameter hole in the heart, suture a BLDC impeller motor (VAD) on, then cut into the aorta or whatever, suture fancy material stuff to a tube that then redirects the blood flow through the motor. And a fancy cable that exits your abdomen and connects to the electronics.
It was the single most disturbing thing I've ever had the displeasure of working with. I really wish I didn't know how it worked.
You know, I sort of guessed where you were going when you mentioned NDAs, and I was still caught off guard.
"Pay you without having to use PTO?'
Ha.
Look, when I found out that Europeans get a thing called "holiday " that isn't two or three days in a row, I was almost ready to riot.
For a moment, I thought "hmm. What if we all said 'No, I shot Brian Thompson'" sort of like what happened in Spartacus, but then I remembered that all 6000 slaves or whatnot were executed
The act must be committed with the intent to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion
No, see, that's clearly false. The civilian population did not get intimidated or coerced by fuck and all, and the government wasn't threatened.
So, nope. Not guilty.
I believe the test was done off the East Coast of Africa. It was actually recorded on the nuclear detonation detection satellite. It may also have been a joint operation between South Africa and Israel.
Cyberpunk dystopia, but without the cool ass shit, just a lot of ways to die horribly.
The types I have worked with and personally been:
IIRC it was disabilities that resulted in institutionalizing. I mean, sure, your depression could be so bad it makes you suicidal - but the Nazis didn't exactly have a problem with you killing yourself.
It was people with intellectual disabilities, physical disabilities, and disruptive mental disorders. Down Syndrome, Fragile x, quadriplegics, cystic fibrosis, schizophrenia, severe ASD, etc. Almost always things that have obvious changes to "normal" behavior, intellect, and appearance.
However, I will say the modern day list of disability has grown, and I would strongly suspect that if the Nazis of Germany could get their hands on modner medical records and purge far more things, they would not have hesitated to do so.
Coincidentally there are 6 down votes on this post as of now lol
Ah, well, blessing in disguise then. For a good chunk of time software engineers were in demand. For whatever reason, I can't remember if it was embedded or application level though.
