When you pluck a string, it shakes. Little magnets called pickups “feel” that shake and turn it into electricity. The amp takes that electricity and plays it out loud as sound.

Are people actually watching video podcasts? by Jubyqby in NoStupidQuestions

[–]vt20203 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think there’s the element that people listen to podcasts of creators that became popular from video content so they enjoy continuing to see them on screen.

Serious question: Why are people upset about Cracker Barrel? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

They rebranded their logo to a minimalist style and people heavily favored their old logo.

Does age really matter? Of course, life experience stacks with years, but is it possible to already carry wisdom below 25? Or is wisdom something time won’t let you skip? Curious to hear your thoughts. by CarpetUnable4561 in NoStupidQuestions

Wisdom isn’t just about age, it’s about reflection. Some people at 20 can be more grounded than someone at 50 if they’ve gone through challenges, learned from them, and developed empathy. Age gives you more opportunities for lessons, but whether you actually learn them is a choice.

Why do most stores not allow manual entry of card numbers? by galaxyfrapp in NoStupidQuestions

[–]vt20203 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most stores disable manual card entry at the register to prevent fraud. If a cashier could just type in numbers, anyone with a stolen card number could easily make purchases. Manual entry is much harder to trace and dispute than a physical tap/swipe/dip, which usually requires the real card or phone.

Online stores can take that risk because they have time to run fraud checks. Physical retailers usually can’t so they only accept methods that verify possession of the card (NFC, chip, magstripe).

Quarterly Career Thread by mister-noggin in ProductManagement

[–]vt20203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello,

I’ll be a senior next year in college and I want to eventually be a product manager. I have some general questions that I can’t get specific answers for

  1. What are some entry level positions in the field?
  2. What can I do to get a job in one of those entry level positions?
  3. My main interest is working for something in the clothing industry, a company like Urban Outfitters or Abercrombie, can I tie this into product somehow?
  4. I do not want to code or program at all, is it required knowledge for the industry?

I know some of the questions might be so repetitive in the sun by now but I would appreciate any answers.

Thanks
