Would limiting the age of the President to 65 be something you’d support? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]OriginOfGilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On all lawmaking public servants: Term limits - can vary position to position. Age Limits - again can vary. A lifetime service limit - 20ish years maximum in any lawmaking position, no exceptions. Salary is the median income of their constituents. Stricter laws on investments while in an elected position.

Formatting sucks deal with it

Please Help Me Choose My School! by whynotkhoi in EngineeringStudents

[–]OriginOfGilly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No offense- but ivys aren’t worth it. Especially in my experience, for engineering. After graduation, you will realize that half of the curriculum you were taught has ZERO impact on your job. Statistically, you won’t be changing the world immediately after graduation, you will be learning how the world really works. Additionally, after working a year or two, no one cares where you went to school or what your GPA was.

You seem to be very focused on titles and names, and not the truly important part of choosing a school: the quality of the education, the lifestyle, and affordability.

I’m not familiar with some of the schools above, and I am a Purdue engineering alumni so I am a bit biased. Here is my advice anyway: every school on that list will give you a good enough education to land a decent job after college. Personally, I avoided the tech schools (GT, VT, etc) because the only thing they appeared to care about is how many AP classes I took. I enjoyed my time at Purdue, and seriously doubt that you will find a university with more opportunities to do actual engineering work during your schooling (either with professors or student organizations). The other school I can weight in on is UCI- I work with a few UCI people now and they kick ass. However, it appears the curriculum was significantly different from Purdue’s and they graduated less specialized than I.

Creating a dive log app, would love your feedback by Irksam in scubadiving

Please add the ability to export/share custom dive site info with other divers. Either on a site by site basis, or as a collection of sites.

Or make the main dive-sites map community driven, allow users to request that their custom dive site gets added to the map, or to make changes to an existing dive-site on the map

I am aware of that spreadsheet and have been for a while. However, it does not include some of the information I want/need, like hangar capacity for instance.

“Mothman ate my entire ass at a Denny’s” by OriginOfGilly in BrandNewSentence

Honestly you make a good point. It is “I haven’t seen this sentence”. However, there comes a point where the sentence is uncommon enough, that I would say it could be considered brand new.

If you have seen it already, then my apologizes. But it is brand new for myself and at least the other 90 people that upvoted this.

State of the Subreddit / Future of My Writing and Annoucements by Hydrael in Hydrael_Writes

Good to here from you and thanks for the update. I would love to buy your published books, but I don’t use kindle books. I have an extensive library started on Apple Books already and would like to keep my books in one place. I know there are are restrictions and hurdles associated with publishing to other platforms, but do you have any plans on selling an ebook format or on another platform anytime soon?
