    Presidential Elections

    sigh...come on IHO; those who destroyed things and attacked police got what they deserve. But the failure of Capitol Police crowd control was the reason for the spectacle that unfolded, not Trumps' speech or exhortation to March Peacefully and Patriotically, and if you're being intellectually...

    Tesla Cybertruck

    Plaid and 911 are close in price though useless options drive up the 911. I have an M3P which speed and handling-wise beats a 911, even on the track (track mode is so rad!) and for $60K - a stupid value that smart people have gravitated to. I've used this anecdote before - when I moved to SV in...

    You must never have taken AP American Lit in high school or you'd be familiar with F. Scott Fitzgerald and his famous quote "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function". TDS is the definition...

    Tesla Cybertruck

    duh - it's the intentional usage of the 911, a car that used to be the natural choice when you got to the point in your life when you could afford a really cool car but now competes with multiple Tesla models

    Tesla Cybertruck

    Did anyone catch the livestream? He just took a bite out of Porsche's brand value by showing the CT beating a 911 while hauling a 911. 0-60 in 2.6! And a true 17' clearance with no differential hanging down means it's also the premier offroader, and dent resitant from ultra hard SS.

    Presidential Elections

    The one downside to Trump from a pocketbook perspective is higher taxes. He'll eliminate all SALT deductions to screw blue states and on his way out as a lame duck he'll sign legislation to eliminate the SS income cap and means test for SS/MC.

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    One of the hottest girls I dated before meeting my wife was Flip. So hot. Short with waist length hair and a huge rack. Looked half but was full Pinoy. She was a Tri Delt.

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    In the course of my education I attended 3 schools starting and ending with USC. Getting socially connected, even within the Greek system, was an order of magnitude more challenging at USC than the other 2 universities if you weren't from Newport or PV. You learn EQ real quick if you want to...

    What is your background - sociology? I play golf with a sociology professor from SJSU and you reminded me of him telling me about the Indigenous People's celebration he attended last Thursday calling it the anti-Thanksgiving. I'm very curious given your humorous mix of self aggrandizement, vile...

    Presidential Elections

    You still can't engage in a policy debate, not surprising given the state of education in high schools and universities these days. The Socratic method is a foreign language to Gen Z. You're also very ignorant of history. Jews were reviled in Germany going back to it's creation in 1871 and...

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    My algos prof was Leonard Adelman - the A in RSA. Freshman chemistry was taught by Dr. Olah who won a Nobel. Great undergrad teaching at USC.

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    I suspected you were anti-semitic so thanks for illuminating that clearly. Getting in is one thing but graduating from undergrad Wharton is another. And have you seen the women at MIT/Caltech/HM? No thanks.

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    USC Viterbi in the top engineering school in SoCal today and even when I was there the engineering career fairs were wall to wall recruiters. USC does the best job of preapring students for the professional world due to the agressive social atmoshpere one must compete in. Check the CS rankings...

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    Sounds like you're a struggling idealistic Gen Z'er. I was offered a scholarship to Oxy in a 3/2 program with Caltech but having taken classes at Caltech all through jr high and high school summers as I grew up in Pasadena that was the last place I would ever want to go as I wanted to make...

    LA Times: Post-affirmative action, Asian American families are more stressed than ever about college admissions

    My degree is from one of the top engineering schools in the country and I went straight into sales where my academic pedigree has been a differentiator. People go to Santa Clara because there is a straight pipeline from the Bay area Catholic schools and the hiring network in Silicon Valley is...
