I think its less hammer more nail vs screw. Both can hold wood to a wall and will be part of the building when you are done. For example a nail can splinter the wood which can cause a break down the line while a screw wouldn't encounter such an issue.
I remember back when the earthquake hit we were in the engineering lab at university and we were gathered around one of the workstations watching YouTube video's of the even half way around the world. We were shocked but we were fairly confident that their government had a handle on the situation. They are an earthquake prone country after all, they surely planned for this. My roommate was a transfer studying English and had a few friends from South Korea and Japan. They were going to a pub and I came along for the ride. I will never forget that night.
1. One of his friends got a phone call telling him his best friend was missing. He left and I never saw the guy again, I don't know what happened to his friend. This made the situation really feel real to me. Not just something just happening on TV.
2. While talking to a Japanese guy there (who I knew well and had a history of being BRUTALLY honest about his own country) said straight up: "This is worse than the government is admitting". Even before problems with Fukushima were announced he said this. I was dumbstruck by how the people could truly not believe their own government in any of the slightest and how despite this the Government perpetually wants to pretend everything is fine to keep the populous calm. As time has gone on I only further believe him on this fact. And I believe that it is still worse than they are currently admitting.
I bought some EM radiation blocking cloth from LessEMF and stitched it to the inside pocket of my jacket which I rarely use. If I'm feeling paranoid (or if I'm not arsed to turn on airplane mode to save battery) I just put it in that pocket instead of the normal one and zero communications can get in (especially my mother)
It's not useful because nobody has one. Google have yet to "do" it. Their self driving car is as useful to anyone reading this as human teleportation right now. They're great idea's but until they are accessible in some form to the public, it is still just an idea that needs work not an innovation.
I look forward to the day I can say I do have one though.
Definition of lynch
verb
[with object]
(of a group of people) kill (someone) for an alleged offence without a legal trial, especially by hanging
While I do realize that there are certain connotations in America as it being aimed towards African Americans, as a non American my understanding of it has always been that it is not an act aimed at a specific race. Rather a group enacting their own law without trial usually because standard legal proceedings would be viewed as a forgone failure due to lack of evidence etc. which the group would not find satisfying.
I currently make a living by essentially applying these rules to other peoples code and handing it off.
My second programming lecturer ever, refused to correct my assignments if these rules were not followed. He never told us said rules though. This was before I learned what an array was! Got 0% on my first two assignments with him but eventually he corrected the next ones with a good life lesson.
Frankly its the only thing I remember from that asshole but was probably one of the most important lessons in my opinion!
