for people wandering why are they talking about 6G when 5G isn't even widely available, 3G standardisation started around 2000, 4G started around 2008, and 5G started around 2015. each generation's standards and documents get finalised in steps and it takes a few years after an standard is released for companies to make products, and it takes time for these to be sold, manufactured and shipped and it'll take more years to build out the infrastructure necessary to be able to support these products.

the trend for a while has been a new generation every decade, but honestly i don't see how anything beyond 6G is practical. people just don't produce and consume that much data even in a complete IoT takeover.

it's the temperature your room's at, shitass /j

it's in the range of 20-25 °C, no clue what's that in burger units. to be honest 30 degrees isn't even that hot anymore, with summers getting longer and longer and also hotter, it might genuinely become the default room temperature someday.

However, when these upgrades were initially added to the game, they could only be purchased with hard cash, costing between $9.60 and $42 depending on which set you bought.

wait so people finally got sick over a 10 dollar upgrade? what about the fucking pay to win thousand dollar ships? do Goomer brains really think "yeah it might cost one grand but since it's available in the game for 10 morbillion credits it's not pay to win." ??!?

it's Persian. technically it transliterates to butt unwasher the translation would be "someone that doesn't wash their butt".

EDIT: sry i misunderstood it's koon nashoor or kun nashur.

you can do as my parents said "well you can become an engineer and continue humanities on the side"

joking aside i know it's a recipe for burnout but stick to your software engineering career. junior positions absolutely suck and maybe if you ride it out you'll start to like it better, or develop strategies to at least deal with it in a healthy way.

unfortunately there is no comparable pay in humanities and although job security is meaningless these days, your position will be extra precarious in humanities as half of your time will be spent justifying your existence to some shithead and you have to absolutely suck off people to keep your job whereas in SWE it's at least desirable for the company to keep you around if they are not doing layoffs.

and what if you risk it and as it turns out you don't like a job in humanities after all? or that the field is interesting but all the things surrounding it is a total shit show? this happens a lot and academia is full of passionate people chewed out and checked out by the suffocating admin surrounding it.

all im saying that it's a huge gamble and personally i wouldn't (and didn't) take the risk. sometimes life is not about what's rational but about what you are feeling so ultimately it's your call.
