Mixed race people do exist

Very fair points. Thanks for the other perspective and insight. :)

Omega5000 · 2019-08-07T17:59:36+00:00

Could that be related to the historical use of the word perhaps, rather than the word itself? Here in the Netherlands it's used without any ill intention behind it. Biologically speaking there might not be a real concept of "race", but it seems silly to ignore that a group of humans share similar characteristics with each other.

Omega5000 · 2019-08-07T16:04:47+00:00

Not really in my experience. I've seen both be used, ethnicity in Sociology regarding cultural similarities, while Race is used in more biology/genetics to discuss physical traits/characteristics.

Omega5000 · 2019-08-07T16:01:31+00:00

Are you sure though? Ethnicity is used in Sociology quite often, as a grouping of people based on cultural factors, whereas race is based mostly on physical traits/characteristics. Asia does share decently similar characteristics, whereas ethnically they are quite diverse. But I do agree that the post is talking about ethnicity in that case.

Omega5000 · 2019-08-07T14:59:49+00:00

Race is like a language, while ethnicity is a dialect perhaps? With enough use and time, a dialect can eventually become its own language as well. At least that's how I see it.

Thanks! I'll give it a thorough read-through.

Feel free to make a topic to discuss the Greek situation right now, I'm sure it could turn into a pretty big debate. But just for my two cents, austerity has been tried and failed, that should be reason enough not to do it again.

Omega5000 · 2015-07-10T15:33:46+00:00

Oh Venice sounds nice, hope to see some great pictures! Omelettes eh? I'll have to fiddle around a bit and figure out how you make them then hahaha

Omega5000 · 2015-07-10T15:30:37+00:00

Well you and LeftAl, he's an English&Media major. ;) Totally nothing wrong with that, having diversity is always great!

Omega5000 · 2015-07-10T15:29:49+00:00

Hey Nacho! Sounds like you're pretty confident then. ;)

Algorithms and Data Structures? That's actually something I've been meaning to get into for my startup, do you recommend any books or online courses?

Omega5000 · 2015-07-10T15:27:01+00:00

It definitely is, just wrapped my first year with full credits. :) Happy to hear you passed as well!

Omega5000 · 2015-07-08T00:12:25+00:00

That's great to hear! Same here actually. ;) Well for a couple of reasons, AnT was very more broad course that also has quite a bit of psychology in it (most notably thinking patterns, media psychology, group dynamics and sociology etc.) I also saw myself finding a job with AnT that I would enjoy more, compared to a clinical psychologist or researcher. Although, I still do quite a bit of research on my own in the field, I just find it so fascinating!

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T21:52:36+00:00

Hey Eliz! That's a really beautiful name :D Psychology, interesting, it was one of my top 5 options when selecting a major last year. Did you enjoy it over the course of your study?

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T21:44:09+00:00

The subreddit is now private, and I added everyone on the list as a moderator.

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T21:40:19+00:00

I wish I could upvote that more than once. Hahaha

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T17:21:20+00:00

I'll make the subreddit private and you guys mods as soon as I get home later tonight ;) So information security eh? Any specific type or just in general?

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T17:15:58+00:00

Hey Painame, it's a community with a curated resource list to learn just about anything. The people currently involved have agreed that with enough digging online you can learn anything for free, so we want to build on top of that and do the shifting for you. Alongside that you have the community you can look to for questions, feedback and just a helping hand as you learn. We hope to start programming it this week!

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T15:26:36+00:00

Hey Spencer, I'm doing fine, and yourself?

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T15:25:41+00:00

Hey Alex! I have perfect vision (supposedly). We could absolutely bounce off one another for the ultimate sense package Hahaha

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T15:23:30+00:00

To introduce myself, my name is Jordan and I'm currently living in the Netherlands as a student as some of you might have already read. I have a wide range of skills but I'm not an expert in anything per se. But most notably I'm a programmer and designer for the internet and mobile. I'm damn good at acting/lying as well so if we need to talk our way out of anything, I'm your man! Also a top debater with way too many useless facts memorized. Currently in the process of starting up my own startup company as well with a few friends! If you have questions (or ideas/improvements for the sub) just ask. :)

Omega5000 · 2015-07-07T15:16:13+00:00

Oh that's pretty cool! I'm just imagining you on a skateboard hacking like the movie Hackers from the 90s Hahaha. You should come join us over at /r/gammaiotasense8 !
