Does anyone on pnut have experience in either having a product manufactured (e.g. plastic enclosure/electronics for consumer product) or working with computing setups designed for public places (e.g. kiosk)? If so, please DM me, I'd love to chat
I'm seeing people on the internet use "folk" as a direct replacement for "folks" or "people". Is it because they're all reading Shakespeare? Is everyone going to name their kids Caliban in 2023?
@33MHz Plus the incentives are skewed. I feel pressure to impress certain people, so it's front-stage behavior forced to masquerade as back-stage behavior; whereas on slack/zoom I only have one layer--direct front-stage behavior--to worry about
@33MHz yes, it's so weird to drink/dance/chat informally with people who might seem like potential friends, but with a barrier of professional detachment holding back one's true self (at least for me)
About 200 people from the startup I'm interning at met up in Austin for a celebration. Within a few hours we had people drinking from their shoes, and a lot of people tried to pressure me to drop out of college (which I will not do)
@Wife@33mhz I suspected it was you two, since you're the ones who typically reply to my posts (thanks btw). I meant that maybe biotech could get big enough that it makes everything else look small, kind of like tech/computers in the past few decades
