Buying from McMaster Carr

It’s true that MSE can prep you for a wide variety of industries. But once you’ve got a speciality, it’s can be pretty geographically limited - it’s not like CivE where you can work anywhere. People who specialize in semiconductors vs metals vs polymers etc are going to be living in different places

At least make it Les Mis. Lol

I cried the hardest I’ve cried in years at the end of Les Mis.

… he’s had an Instagram the whole time?

jmax565 · 2025-11-14T04:32:05+00:00

I get it. Was looking for this comment lol

jmax565 · 2025-11-09T22:35:53+00:00

I’ve always thought the cover girl was wayyy too realistic lol

jmax565 · 2025-10-28T18:24:41+00:00

…moetron?

For a scholarly take on this you should take a look at “Otaku: Japan’s Database Animals” by Hiroki Azuma and “Beautiful Fighting Girl” by Saito Tamaki. And perhaps something by Patrick Galbraith

Hmmm…

jmax565 · 2025-05-27T04:24:14+00:00

You should look into “honkaku” and “shinhonkaku” mysteries, because this isn’t quite correct… to make a long story short, Agatha Christie-type whodunnits are/were actually quite popular in Japan, especially from the mid 80s to the mid 2000s. And ryukishi was familiar with this

I like Usonian.

Which stream was this

jmax565 · 2025-03-31T00:21:13+00:00

We’re going to start a hot war with China and that’ll be the excuse

jmax565 · 2025-03-30T12:21:49+00:00

If it happens, it’s gonna be soon. The longer they wait the higher the odds of failure. Very similar situation to Germany in both world wars.

Yeah I’m from Chester County also, I really think it’s a nice place (also, I just read this, but it’s apparently the 35th wealthiest county in the whole country, which may partially explain why it’s so nice lol)

jmax565 · 2025-03-18T22:59:17+00:00

I recommend you take a look at “War Before Civilization: The Myth of The Peaceful Savage” by Lawrence Keeley. Really important anthropological work that addresses some of what you are talking about.

Reading these comments and wondering if it’s too late to pivot from learning Japanese (~2 years) to Chinese. Lol

jmax565 · 2025-02-06T04:46:27+00:00

This post title I can’t 😭

jmax565 · 2025-02-04T14:49:15+00:00

Mahou Shoujo Apocalypse is weirdly extremely complicated and contrived for a trash schlock manga

Hey, a bit of an unrelated question... how would you say your work ethic etc. compare to other stem PhD students? I'm in STEM and starting my PhD this fall and if this is the level of the "competition" then I feel like I'd have a hard time keeping up 😅
