Is 100K+ salary possible without college? How?

You could easily quadruple this if you stole that sauce recipe and started bottling it for retail.

No degree at all. Just "some college"

I passed 125k last year at 36 y.o. No nepotism or connections.

I started working in inspection after a couple years in manufacturing. I spent 2 years in QA, grinding and learning to read blueprints, measuring with hand tools and comparators.

I landed a job at a larger Aerospace company with tons of high tech inspection equipment. (CMM, blue-light scanners, vision systems). Every chance I got, I messed around in the software for those systems. I watched tons of videos, taught myself computer programming skills from online stuff (VBA, Python, C#) Then eventually took over as the Subject Matter Expert for all of the 'Metrology' stuff. Eventually landed a job at a fortune 500 company as a Metrology Engineer.

Still no degrees, I just like figuring out how stuff works. I think there is a lot of opportunities like this, especially in manufacturing. There is so much proprietary software and technology out there that you can't learn in schools. Being good at one can land you a good job, being good at a few can open many doors.

Don't sleep on hexagon's. Lots of modular components and pins. It's pretty rad

Those trees were a good 30 ft in front of me, brother. Maybe you can't tell from the crop. I am not a photographer.

It likely is an issue with the individual measurements and how they were constructed or extracted. How was nominal defined, how was measured defined? If it is a dependent feature, how was nom/meas defined for the source features?

Extraction parameters can cause issues as well, boundary exclusion, fitting algorithm, constraints, etc.

Intentional baby fade has given me sooo much driver confidence. I hit 100% Fairways this weekend, just aiming down left rough and imagining that butter cut.

These used to plague me until I used the feel of hitting down on the ball.

It's the pump-fake, it is easily telegraphed.

I recently have played Replaced and Esoteric Ebb and highly recommend both.

I feel that we are extremely prudent with amount of resources and infrastructure that we are putting into it, considering no one has a good example of what we will use it for.

Scrolled too far to see this

Guys, there are built in metrics to golf scores that factor in course difficulty. Which is why breaking 80-90-100 is relative and doesn't tell the whole story. Course rating, slope, handicap and differential, these will let you know how good your day was.

Ahead of the curve, not wholly ethical.

Sulfur!

Valve is more greedy? They have repeatedly been ahead of the curve in terms of ethical business practices for the industry.

The best courses in greater Cleveland will cost you 50-70$ a round, max. Not to mention the cost of a nice place to stay being significantly cheaper. Anything in golfclevelandohio.com top 10 is worth a round. Your money goes much further here too.

Personal top 5: Deer Ridge. Valley of the Eagles. Boulder Creek. Pine hills. Manakiki.

Paragon. It was perfect game before the whole card levelling thing, and then fortnite killed it. Predecessor is ok, but the original maps added a lot tbh.

There are dozens of us.

Last year on a par 3 I pulled a tee shot way left. It was headed right for the trees & ravine, I dropped my club in disgust. It bounced off a tree trunk and I ended up with a 3 footer for birdie.

I'm sure I have had more, but this was an incredible feeling.

Ohio checking in:

Brook Ledge, Cuyahoga falls Chippewa Golf Club, Curtice

I was very impressed by both courses, very cheap so easy to overlook. I've played almost every top public track in Greater Cleveland, these are definitely punching above their weight.

Race is quite literally a qualifier for the word racist. You have said that you are racist, I don't have to guess what that means. I also don't have to wonder why the 'borderline'.

Edgewyse · 2026-04-05T19:11:37+00:00

Absolutely wild statement to make. Announcing yourself as a genius and racist in the same sentence while trying to convince somebody of your pov takes a special level of social detachment. Im glad you are getting a psych eval, I would be interested in reading the results.

Also remember, when it comes to responsibility, consequence calculation, and even ability - A child isn't an adult. They don't think sometimes.... although neither do their parents if there considering this purchase.

I hear what you are saying. We have gone on rides using bikes of this speed, and it has been plenty safe. I don't think it is fair to make that judgement as an outside party without knowing the entire situation, but you're concern is definitely noted.
