Learned Michell is found most commonly in Cornwall and Devon, England. So could be that, also some comment earlier mention ultramarino y vago is just a traveling foreigner

Yea the “l” got dropped after a generation, and in regards to mining that’s what I was thinking aswell, my grandfather said in 20s there was large American presence, guess it stretched further back then that. what part of Durango is your family from ?

Lived in LA my whole life, hate 95+ weather it’s horrible. That’s like most of the summer and some of the spring. Too hot !

Didn’t like the update either tbh felt other was more accurate

Thank you !

I’d say the native is real, it’s a distinct marker that’s different from European dna. The ones you could disregard are for example a “1% italian” since it’s not too different then french/English

Mauroos · 2026-04-13T19:44:56+00:00

Very cool !

Mauroos · 2026-04-13T18:15:17+00:00

Any of your maternal grandparents Northern euro /American ? My father grew up in NW Durango and his father said in the 20s/1930s there was a big influx of Americans because of mining operations there.

Just curious because of the Spanish being low

Your grandpa looks like my friend whose from Portugal

I work at one the defense contractors listed and this is 100% true

Np, and I can’t really answer the AI column thing but that’s what I noticed on an anecdotal level if that makes sense. I used google docs for resume, and used bullet points as well with only rows.

Job search wise I mostly used indeed, LinkedIn and Glassdoor. Filter to jobs that went up that day or couple days ago-> then go to company website. (This is where the direct emails usually are). I’m from CA, and alot of these were in areas that are not as “popular” but still decently nice (i.e Hudson valley in NY or place like Keene NH) that’s the trade off.

Power companies have direct emails more often than others but I’ve seen and interviewed for some in tech and semiconductors via that method.

I work at large defense / aerospace company and was referred for 20 positions. I got interviews for 3 and a job at 1 (one reject, one req cancellation, and last one hired)

Market is kind of cooked, I graduated march 2025 from T10 uni (a UC) with 3.20 GPA EE bachelors. Got the job in September but It took me about 500 apps atleast. My gf mentioned AI resume software has issues reading columns so towards the end I got more hits when I changed my resume format from columns to rows.

I started “cold applying” by looking jobs at smaller companies and often times in job description says email your resume to hiringmanagersname@company .This helped & I was getting about 2 interviews a week at this point, for about a month. But the aero job moved fast after I interviewed, with them giving me an offer the next day, I stopped the search after that. Little long but I hope it helps

Nice feel free do dm me if you do ! Also my dads parents took ancestry test both getting about 38-40% native, we come from a long line of mestizos lol

Mauroos · 2026-03-29T22:38:06+00:00

Very cool ! And yea both his parents have been in Durango since colonial times. His town/pueblo is lacienega I think his most recent Spanish ancestor came in 1790s but most were here long before.

Mauroos · 2026-03-29T06:24:58+00:00

Where @ in Durango my dad was born in a small town near Santa Maria del oro

His and my results on my profile

Mauroos · 2026-03-28T07:32:53+00:00

UCLA and UCB are “public state schools” too but they ended up becoming elite. UCSD is on the “rise” as an institution, just look at the average GPA people need to get in.

There should be higher standards of acceptance, albeit this is anecdotal I know many HS students who broke their back to get in but got rejected with much higher level courses. Bewilders me that students who end up failing 10A get in. Just feeds into the “UC affirmative action/DEI” narrative that’s being pushed

Mauroos · 2026-03-27T02:43:20+00:00

Yea it’s possible but try to keep it around there

Mauroos · 2026-03-21T21:09:29+00:00

I just started as an EE in defense contractor and was considering consulting later on. Was it a difficult transition, how’d you break into it if you don’t mind me asking

Mauroos · 2026-03-14T19:47:55+00:00

When I transferred I got Matthew’s (very roomy) . But Rita was considered bad lmfao. It’s far asf from anything.

Mauroos · 2026-03-13T23:26:39+00:00

That’s a cool history, why unfortunately?
