I believe so. I guess a more appropriate one would be Textron since they still make helicopters?

One of the guys I went to college with is an amazing programmer and had such a great understanding of C that hes why i got as far into CS as i did, couldn't get a job after grad because 1) Covid and more importantly 2) he's insufferable.

He got a job making $100k a year for I wanna say Lockheed because he quote "Wrote good looking code". That's all they needed because Tue DoD already told them that the project he was hired for was not going to be adopted, but they were still contracted for minimum 2 more years of development and Lockheed would be in breach of contract if they weren't making progress even though it was already Dead.

The Military industrial complex is JUST a grift to put tax dollars in private hands.

Noooooo 😭

It's not the kind of validation I do tho 🤓😉

Yes, violence is literally all of capitalism.

Sadly, a matching 401k became the standard corporate retirement package over a pension.

However, you do still have a choice of what to invest in, even with a 401k.

what are engineers, if not machine doctors?

💀

Also if you have any disabilities, like if you have depression. Oh your parents are gonna be so cruel to you. You are a "useless eater".

What the fuck is this life. Why?

I wasn't even supposed to be born. Why the fuck am I here. This fucking suffering.

I'm from mainland China (currently residing in the US), profile pic is because I hate the 5-Star Red Flag and the politics it represents.

Probably something with Asian cultures's obsession with the idea of "success". Like... my parents literally wouldn't care if I became some corrupt government official as long as I don't get caught. Success is worshipped, failure is shamed. I talk shit about trump, and like my mom said "at least he became president, can you do that?"

I'm like: "naturalized citizens can't be president"

omg immediately less than 1 second later, mom goes: "but Gary Locke became Governor" (Gary Locke is a Chinese American)

And like you know Mamdani won, immedialy after, she told me "an immigrant managed to become Mayor, you are an immigrant just like him, why can't you do the same?" bruh... maybe I could if I didn't get so much emotional damage, mom.

Like they worship success, regardless of if they are "good" or "bad" people.

If you try to be a good person and you "fail" in life, you are considered worse than the bad person in power making a lot of money.

I'm like just so close to killing myself, even though I really wanna live, this is too painful, depression is too painful.

My parents are slowly killing my ethics and empathy, like one day I might just not care.

Either you die young with your morals intact, or you seek success and survival, and you corrupt your soul...

This world is cruel. The world wants you to be cruel to be able to even live a comfortable life.
