My Uber driver tonight doesn't really know the roads very well Opted to take a busy highway and some streets rather than a major throughfare My ride went from being like thirty-two minutes to like forty-five It's not a big deal but I would rather spend as little time in a stranger's cars possible Plus I want to nap
come to think of it, uber is always a bit of rng what kinda driver you have tho that is taxi and other car services, but I have a feeling that cab drivers are more knowledgeable of their area
Anno
The RNG gets even more drastic when you realize/learn that a lot of former taxi drivers take up Uber-ing So sometimes you get a legitimately good driver who has decades of experience in this job Those are often some of the more enjoyable rides I've had, unsurprisingly
Anno
While it's definitely going to suck going from a 25 - 35 minute Uber ride to an hour long transit ride to get to or from work once they discontinue the Uber program, I am definitely looking forward to never having to listen to a Pop 40 radio station ever again once I'm taking public transit again
>>955557 Sure, I guess Plus the radio does fill the silence and probably means they're less likely to try and talk to me I don't think there's anything I'd find worth wanting to listen to anyway
!C0.PerkELE
too polite to ask them to switch channel or no radio?
I do enjoy talking to taxi drivers, since talkative finns are really good at talking and interesting people but then again, if that was every day and not like 4 times a year yeah no
luckily enough "earpods/headpones equipped" is a solid "don't talk to me" here
Anno
My thermostat panel has gone blank again It ends up like this every four or five days it feels like I can't use it at all when it gets like this and I'm not even sure it actually activates anything more than just the standard ventilation fan Though also I'm a little annoyed that I can't seem to get my unit to warm up naturally. I'm like five storeys up, the day temps are around 25c, but my unit never seems to peak above 23c and spends plenty of time beneath that I've taken to wearing a long sleeved shirt at home because my acclimated temperature finds this kind of chilly I need it to be warmer!

Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
the patricia trie has a nice property that i could do merkle tree stuff to check the validity of the whole tree/use cryptographic hashing git-style which is kinda an interesting check for my use case which is just a secured key value store idk it's probably over kill i could just hash the entire b tree instead and worry about scaling with merkle patricia keys later down the line

yeah for day to day programming linked lists are pretty rare so much extra overhead per item bad cache coherency, just bad performance in general on modern computers idk why the linux kernel uses them so much, but they have different constraints to work with, and of course the code is 30 years old

Fucking Uber driver rolls up in a Dodge Grand Caravan minivan but the middle row of seats has been taken out for a wheelchair mount I know these kinds of cars are invaluable for people who use a wheelchair but I don't! And these kinds of minivans are rickety things that rattle on every pothole or streetcar rail they drive on/over. It's a really uncomfortable ride Plus I can't remember the last time I was in a minivan that didn't have a stuffy, stagnant, slightly nauseating smell to it

Yeah, the other job is gone. This is the job that was my side gig.I I'm only working like 5 hours a week. I worked 5 hours last week and about the same this week. So I'm kind of still on break? I might get a few more hours next week, I dunno. I can just work 5-10 hours for the next few months since I have some savings but I'll probably start taking some more clients soon since it kind of sucks being home all day every day.
Yeah, I was the only therapist. They kept saying they couldn't hire anymore. Around the time I left, they did hire one more, but it was way too late. Also my boss that I liked got fired and replaced with this narcissistic piece of shit that put my life in danger several times, bought clients drugs, and some other unethical stuff. And when I told them I was promised a raise in January and still didn't have it in May, they said "Well, I can't offer you more money but I can offer you more work" even though I told them I was burned out.
Honestly, since I left that place, I've felt amazing almost every day.
>>955758 My current boss almost got shot by a cop once because he got out of his car at a traffic stop because he wanted to go to the cop car and tell the cop that he needed to stop at his house around the corner to grab something for his daughter and the cop pulled his gun on him lol

>>955757 I'm glad you are free of that job! And American police are so terrified to me, like the fear of getting killed by the police is really legitimate. The only last time I remember police getting spooked and armed here was someone having a lara croft lifesize cardboard cutout at a window and they had hours long stand off with the cardboard cutout.
Cops are like hybrids between rapid dogs and pigs. They'll eat anything and wallow around in their own filth, but they also smell fear and they'll get pumped up if they smell it. As long as you're white and respond to them confidently and without fear, they won't do anything to you. Keep your hands on the steering wheel, ask for permission to reach over to the glove box, etc. One time I got pulled over, and the cop was trying to scare me by saying it was a no-tolerance zone and that I was doing 20 over the speed limit. But I really didn't care, so I just said "okay" to whatever scary stuff he was trying to say. Even though it was a no-tolerance zone, he came back and said he wasn't going to give me a ticket for speeding. www

>>955764 I remember watching a recorded encounter where a black army guy got stopped and they really wanted to get him, really threatening him and when fucked up they threatened that it wouldn't be good for him if he reported it. cops are actually scary. I am glad my couple of months in the US I didn't see a single cop but I was also in the middle of nowhere most of the time.
I used to do a lot of work with the cops so I know how they work They really aren't that scary once you get the hang of dealing with them but it's definitely best to just avoid cops altogether if you can
Definately one of my biggest fears when I go to America is having an interaction with the cops since I'm hard of hearing. that and trying go star watching and hearing snake noises . I got spooked by a bush in dark. like it was proper dark since there was no artificial life for miles.
tbf she was already like this before i ever met her also their pronouns are they but i keep slippin up think the girl part would also be incorrect anyway (sorry for that) i don't know how to help them anymore

my life would be over one day i would go into work and id have an adolescent client and theyd say hey your the old guy from that video and id ask what video and theyd show me a video on instagram of me saying something embarrassing because im old and the client will start laughing at me and say your a therapist bro? lol thats sus sdfhskdfgs and some slang i dont even know and ill start crying and theyll video it and put it on insta too #oldguycries
And then one day a kid will call me dad and I'll try to direct everyone's mocking ire onto them but instead everyone will say haha it's because your old like a dad old old old old and ill have to start wearing heelies like the young people so i can fit in but my knees are no good so ill collapse and say ahh my knees!! and theyll all laugh and laugh and laugh as i lie on the ground in tears the ambulance will come to pick me up and they'll offer me the senior discount my life is already over the wheels are turning /moe/ the wheels are turning
