The problem is people don’t want a focused community. They want a broad community so when they have a question they can ask and find an expert - but not so broad that the noise means they can’t follow anything. We do focused communities because the world (or even internet) has too many people and so the noise of all the discussions is too much. However that isn’t what we want.

1% of females as well, but few know that even though there must be a lot out there.

I was in college when my mom brought the books home one weekend. As she suspected my sister was also colorblind. Mom gets three wrong and you need more than three to be colorblind - but latter she was working in a clothing store and a customer ask for a discount for some stain she couldn’t see but the manager saw it from 10 feet away and gave the discount.

I can tell the difference between the red and green light - but if a left turn turn light comes on while the red remains (that is only left turns no going straight) I’ll probably miss it because the green is so faint and red obvious

Retail will take anyone and train them which is why it is so easy.

Every other job needs someone with special skills and so they are selective and hard to get in. Even though most people don’t work retails, there is much more competition for these jobs, and a lot less job in any given specialty. The better the job the less competition there is - but there still is plenty of competition.

Which means you need to not ask for “a job”, but select the specific job and then set yourself up to be good at that on your own time. The more specialized you get, the better a chance you have a job in that specialty - but the worse chance you get at any other job! Which means choosing the right specialty is critically important. Good luck (usually it too bad though as most things have enough demand).

The worst part: once you get a job they start teaching you the skill for that. It is really hard to change latter because you go from an expert to beginner.

Remember what others have said though: who you know is more important that what you know! So figure out who you know! Figure out what they can maybe get you into, and apply the above in consideration of that. Sometimes people will tell you what they can help you with, sometimes they won’t know but you can guess.

don’t blame capitalism. People are that shortsighted about everything. In your own niche you are not but I don’t have to know anything about you to state with 100% confidence that you have already been shortsited about something in your life.

On the other hand you can’t do everything correctly - you don’t have enough time. You have to make hard choices about where you place the redundancey. Aften people focus an the last crisis and so they over invest in fire protection in the next house after a house burns - but the odds of a house fire are still low and they are likely putting less into the real next problem - whatever it will be.

don’t label with panel slot - too often you need to move things and so those are incorrect anyway

the box needs to be accessable. The drop ceilling counts but something perminant ceiling would not.

The printing press is a very new invention in our universe. Before then books were for the rich. Often too history is written by the victors and so it missing a lot of important details that might or might not matter.

Come to think of it intelligent life such as could write books seems to be new. (but we have no ability to detect life elsewhere if it exists so who knows)

In the 1970s some car makers advertised that there would be no damage to the bumper/car at all at 5mph.

At what speed? At 5mph - walking speeds - I’ll take the 1970s car with the 5mph bumper any day. However at more realistic speeds the 1970s car will still need expensive repairs - it will be a lot cheaper repairs than a modern car, but it still will need significant work. Meanwhile the modern car means I’m much less likely to need major repairs which often cannot be done at any price.

it uses the Hebrew calendar which is completely different from modern systems. It is always exactly the same day every year. That Catholics and orthodox sometimes use different days is historically correct usage of the Hebrew calendar. First full moon after the spring equinox is an easy simplification (and likely what the ancients were trying for desbite not having modern astronomy) - but it isn’t correct.

Reserection is tied to passover, which in turn is tied to the spring equinox. Bunnies and many of the other things done then have pagan roots, but the date has a real meaning anyway.

Which sects? Some of them are very combined. Some of them are not. The puritans refused to celebrate Christmas because of the paganism influences.

That is illegal, and the rail roads have had enough problems that they monitor for it. When they detect you the train will stop with the car you are in at the crossing the sherif is waiting at.

good luck.

Coach is plenty good seats. A sleeper would be nice but that is luxury class, coach seats are fine for sleeping in. That gets the price cheaper than flying in most cases.

Properly distilled wine makes a great fuel for cars. You need a slightly different tuning in the computer (and sometimes bigger injectors), but it works just fine in an engine. If you are willing to forever give up the ability to mix with gas you can save a lot of energy over ethanol fuel by not removing all the water.

Geography is your best answer. If you pick a time that plays half their games close to you that means you can go watch games in person once in a while. It means you and strangers on the street likely have in common seeing the same games and so can talk about them. Nothing wrong with a distance team, but you miss out the major advantages of a spectator sport by not choosing the local team.

When I was in Germany nobody tried to talk Spanish to me. When I was in sweden they didn’t either. nor did they in India. If you are to be well traveled you quickly learn to find English speakes everywhere - because that is the language of travel it is enough. A second language is only useful if you limit your travels to the area they speak it.

many kids in foreign countries take years of english but they can’t speak is. Those who thy speak it well and they stick in groups thus not knowing how bad the rest of the class really is.

I haven’t triee others extensively enough to comment.
