The problem with Intel is itself. No amount of laying people off has helped them in the past. Nothing suggests that it will this time either. Pumping money into this thing without major changes will lead to more money hemorrhaging with no significant benefit.

The place is a classic definition of toxic work environment.

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I do get a feeling that you mean walking for pleasure. Although that’s important, it’s much more important doing chores and going to work. That means that your destination is predetermined and your ability to avoid unpleasant and dangerous sections is limited.

Funnily enough I’ve lived in all 3 categories of these places.

Rural: no sidewalks and large distances. Walking is usually impractical because of distances and lack of sidewalks. Your house is most likely right on the side of the local road. To get anywhere your real option is biking, but cars go fast on these road. You better not be caught at night or on heavy rain, because some grandma is going to take you out. Many times people were shouting at me from cars passing by, one time threw an empty can, couple times some wrappers and stuff.

Suburban: walking most likely is an option as is biking. If you are lucky, there are sidewalks, but I’m my case there were large portions of the road without sidewalks. Even worse sometimes short route takes you through intersections that aren’t easily navigable by pedestrians. No lights, slip lanes etc. it’s very uncomfortable walking or biking on such roads for long time. Your best option is to try to find circuitous route through neighborhoods and only cross major roads when needed. That increases travel time by a lot at expense of higher safety and keeping your hearing. Fewer shouts from the car, but they happen still.

Urban: that’s the most walkable setup. The only one I really recommend. I’ve lived in what considered a very bad part of town and managed to walk to store and gym with no problem. But I’m a guy and was young then, so your milage might vary.

Lol what? Actually it just so happens that I am walking/biking a lot, but only because I currently have safe routes available to me. I’ve chosen my location very carefully with this requirement in mind. Until recently though I have lived in your average American town where you wouldn’t catch me walking unless there’s was no other option. Insults out of the cars alone would deter most people, but being in constant danger of being run over is where I draw the line.

It’s not about how long it is. It’s about how unpleasant and dangerous it is to walk around 90% of America.

Hello diabetus

OpenSuse does all of this or almost all of this.

So kind of off topic. Like 15 years ago emacs vs vim split in engineering was like 50-50. Now I see more like like 90-10 with vim winning. What happened? I always assumed they are equivalent more or less.

Useless advice from naive individual. What is there to discuss.

I already have a job. I don’t need the second one. If I did, I would run for office myself.

Wtf? Government is my job when I vote for it based on their declared policies. Demand services in writing? What are you talking about? What country are you from?

Not well. I don’t know if you mean to imply something, but I live in Portland and our government is very liberal. And yes I voted for them. And yes they have solved absolutely nothing.

People like me? You know nothing about me. Like for starters that I already live in the neighborhood with high number of public housing units. I have nothing against them whatsoever. I encourage them to build more. Yeah like having outreach and all that other bullshit solved the issue. Did you catch that I live in Portland? I see with my own eyes that these policy are not working even though bleeding hearts keep on talking about them like they are Jesuses incarnate.

What law? Nobody cares about any international “laws” unless they can benefit from them and enforce them in some way.

Somebody would manage to take offense. No doubt in my mind.

No housed person has harassed or attacked me since middle school.

I don’t want to see them because they are dangerous. Reasons don’t matter. I’ve been harassed and my wife was attacked by homeless people in Portland. She has pretty severe PTSD right now because of that.

I’m not Christian and I don’t want to see them. Also I didn’t consider housing them to be my job. That’s why we have government that we elect and pay taxes to in order to fund it. This is just bs sign that simply virtue signaling instead of asking hard questions.

Not just that. It’s bad for teeth to. Not to mention she’ll be honey in an hour.

Raised by wolves. I just want to know how it ends.
