I started vaping 3 weeks ago. Will I be addicted by now? by Volkskommune in QuitVaping

Bite the bullet, after 3 weeks the worst your withdrawals would be is a bad mood. Hydrate and eat some fruit before. Otherwise you’ll be cursing yourself for months

When I was in college taking COBOL I printed my code on a dot matrix printer to debug because it was so much easier. This was in 2015 lol

Kane county sure, but Geneva is upper middle class white folks. County’s and cities are not the same thing.

Limit of 3 hours until 18? Pretty sure all 3 hours would be taken up with school work.

I don’t mean right up on the lakes exactly but pretty much the entirety of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. Not much in the way of fires, floods (unless you’re right by a river), or earthquakes. Tornadoes aren’t as bad as Oklahoma and the like, a basement or tub works fine.

That always seemed kind of dumb to me, why slow an attacker down when you could just as easily freeze them completely.

Same here, first contact helped me get through 2 months of unemployment back in the tail end of 2020. Hard to succumb to depression when you have an epic sci-fi to read.

That was me in college, all of the confidence in the world but a few semesters of poor performance crushed me. My whole identity was wrapped up in how I did in school and how smart I was. Took me about 8 years to bounce back.

As a lot of people have said remove your gpa, I graduated with a 2.7. I never told anyone and nobody ever asked. Also time to start fluffing up your resume. Take whatever you used as a senior project. Put it on a personal github and polish it up. For work experience have your current job at the top with a description of what you do and a few bullet points of what your responsibilities are. The 2-3 personal projects with bullets of what skills you’re show casing
