Define private

They strip all the tracking from the emails. I'll unsubscribe from ads, or turn off compromised addresses, but them not scanning my emails is a plus.

How is it not private?

Please expound on your thoughts. I happen to be a paid subscriber, cause I want to support them and I appriciate the extra features I get. So the issues with the free accounts arent a problem for me, but my friends who use the free account don't seem to have any complaints.

Look in to switching to a privacy respecting email. It's not for everyone, but i am very happy with the Proton suite of apps.

I've switched from jerboa to eternity and am liking it better.

And, setting up an entire culling operation, which would have to include transporting the birds, and contaminating another facility and several semi trailers, and staff, not to mention other wildlife is a huge risk. Shutting the windows and turning up the heat is probably the safest and quickest way to do things in this situation

US.

Average starting salary at my school is $68k, my department is $74k average, and I have friends who have started at $110k and had their MS degree paid for on top of that, with a pay bump after their degree.

I turned down $80k starting in a really low CoL area cause they didnt have a big enough moving allowance, and I have a few other options I'm pursuing that are more appealing to me.

That's not terribly awful actually.

If they are wanting to attract programers with experience and not have them sniped.

Fresh out of school in that field with no experience, one can hit $75k-$120k fairly easily.

Signal needs people who are familiar with encryption and cyber security, and are basically inventing new ways to did things in order to mantain user privacy. That is a very specific niche that takes a lot of skill and experience to do.

You can backup your messages with signal... I do it whenever I switch to a new phone.

I think this is important. Being disconnected allows for a more wasteful consumer mindset.

When milk goes bad in the fridge, ehh, spend $3 and get another jug. But, when that jar of goats milk goes bad, or the cheese doesn't work out from the goat in our backyard, it's a little more upsetting, that took a lot of work....

My view, and several friends and family members is that if you are unwilling to personally kill an animal to eat it, you shouldn't be eating meat. Some of these individuals are vegetarians, and others (myself included) are producing our own meat for our families as much as possible.

Even in civil/archE, most of 'em don't have their PE.
