Why don't zoomers care about computers??

>Shouldn't it be the opposite though? Am I taking crazy pills?
Yes and no; Let us remember than computers as we know them are a pretty recent development compared to other technological fields.

With this in mind we could actually evaluate what's the percentage of say.... mechanical/naval engineers compared to the total population, or if you prefer a better metric, the labor population and then extrapolate the result across time.

My guess is that, while the number of engineers increased nominally, the percentage of them is constant due to demand.

Now unto Comp. Sci. the amount of technological works and development in such a small time is staggering across all fields (Networking,Storage,Virtualization,IA,Computing,Hardware design,etc,etc)

One could hardly justify the effort to learn how whole compilers/libraries work let alone learning a poorly documented closed source O.S. that will be deprecated in a couple of years at best.

That said; there is no "true and tried" learning path for computer science so of course people have a hard time grasping the necessary basic knowledge.

this has to do with demographics, if your lineage is from northern europe or east asia, you are less likely to have curly hair. demographic shift is substantial in north america and europe, 90% of people were of european descent in the united states in the 80s, and most european countries were 95%+ . now its more like 60-70% , with some regions dipping below 40%.

What do we think about the Magic Keyboard?
I can't get into high profile mechanical keebs because my wrists are too small.
So I need a nice low profile board.

Is this a good option or are there alternatives?

if it is an auto generated music upload, it was sourced from lossless just like on any other music streaming service

>>102460278
That's why I said official uploads are fine. This isn't necessarily what you're getting from YouTube though. The more obscure you get, the less likely the upload is auto generated

>>102460649
Not to mention some bands don't bother to auto generate songs already uploaded to their old ass channel so some music video uploaded in 2011 that sounds like dogshit is their upload of the song. This is happening less and less though, even when it appears to be this way you can usually poke around and find a clean auto generated upload but still it's something I occasionally come across.

I am reading the books, it was with a heavy heart that I learned that the only way I would have my robowaifu within this life time and perhaps within the end of the following decade, that the bulk of the work would have to fall upon my own hands. If there is a way there is a how. if you came into tech, CS/IT/whatever, and you're a normie then there is no incentive to read these books, the average desk job requires no more than whatever slop your degree mill put you through, but if you hope to refute the vitalist hypothesis, to create synthetic life, then we must study careful the texts written long before us and those after.

I feel like I make a decent amount of money currently for my position. However, level 1 has started to become mind numbing with how repetitive it is and hearing employees bitch about "THIS IS A PRIORITY, I CANT DO MY WORK" (99% of the time it's not) and other day to day absolute retardations. Bosses are alright and benefits are great so I have that going, but I'm starting to perform somewhat worse as I'm getting tired. I still somehow seem to perform better than most of my coworkers without trying so that's cool, but I feel stuck and lost. Losing the promotion also really sucked as I feel I was genuinely qualified for it, just didn't perform well in the interview. Any advice? Sorry for the rambling, just kinda putting thoughts in.

Why stay in tech support? Why not go to sysadmin or specialize in another field?

If you're making 60k, and can bump it to 100k in 2 years, why not?

Fuck Cisco, just do the Network+ unless you're looking to work with cisco gear.
Ditto for Juniper/JNCIA.

Learn Windows Sysadmin (you probably already have a little bit), learn how to take proper notes and documentation, markdown + git = success.

Starting from 0, I would go A+ -> Network+ -> Security+ -> Specialize in a specific field/aread through doing personal time projects if my current position does not allow for developing those skills on the clock

shit's fucking hard

i have a bachelors, 8 """certifications""", and work experience and I'm getting blank stares in interviews from HR roasties.

my favorite interview so far was being asked to do leetcode problems for a linux sysadmin position by some woman who has no idea what she's doing, and when I said no she just ended the call without saying anything and ghosted me.

my second favorite interview was applying for a windows sysadmin and getting told slowly that it's actually a javascript developer position, with zero windows administration involved. When I was asked if I knew any javascript I said no, but I could learn it easily- then I was cut off by saying how I would be unable to learn javascript by the HR recruiter doing the interview.

TL;DR how do I navigate sociopath women in positions of powers so I can feed myself?
