Yes, quite enjoyable.

ostensibly it's so they have the "freedom" of making their own choices in brand and style of tool, and so they can take it with them if they move to a different company but it's still ludicrous

I wasn't shocked because I've known a few mechanics and knew about the whole needing to stock their own mega toolbox thing, but it's definitely a shock when you first come across it

Imagine if we were told we needed to rock up to the lab with our own stock of RBFs, stirring apparatuses, and HPLCs

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

I need some wise sage (or the cliche career aptitude test from the television) to just tell me what (fully remote) jobs I could do and enjoy based on what I've already done

Theranos 2.0?

REVERSE QUENCHING MENTIONED

are you sure you're not a process chemist?

Dumb take

Pitch clock and three-batter minimums my beloveds

we take all the small wins we can get

(should add...not the BS "train our AI" jobs the boards are littered with)

Thanks :)

DAAAAAAAAA
JANKEES LOSE

Anyone on #chemsky have thoughts or insights into fully remote jobs that still live in the process development chemistry realm? May potentially need to transition to a remote position next year and trying to plan ahead

Tobias Funke needed this class

Pitch clock and 3 batter minimum are amazing additions.

@borderlands.2k.com Will Borderlands 4 eventually add support for being able to buy a copy on PC and be able to play the same saves/characters from an Xbox or other console?

much like drugs it's unfortunately only a temporary fix

Please add a setting to remove skipping over filled in squares when typing answers. Thanks!

i love Maggie's stuff lol

If the troops were sent to march through MacArthur Park to film propaganda videos, I hope the new "they got Capone for his taxes" becomes "they got the fascists for not having film permits"

Secretary Kennedy @SecKennedy “@Hersheys just pledged to eliminate synthetic dyes from its candy by the end of 2027. I call on all other companies to follow their lead and help Make America Healthy Again.” Bloomberg Hershey to Remove Synthetic Dyes From its Snacks by End of 2027 June 30, 2025 | Kristina Peterson

Tens of thousands of Americans will have died (literally) from Medicaid cuts by the time Hersheys removes nontoxic synthetic dyes from their high-calorie, low-nutrition candies

"Was it really this dumb in 2003" guys they renamed french fries

Anyone have insights on translating an organic chem PhD and 7+ years of process dev chem experience into a remote job field? Staring down the potential of moving to an area (for 4 yr) where the closest process dev joint will be pretty much out of commute range.

SO YOU'RE TELLING ME THEY WERE MISLEADING WHEN THIS KERFUFFLE ORIGINALLY CAME OUT AND THEY SAID "DON'T WORRY GUYS WE'RE WORKING ON IT NOTHING TO SEE HERE, PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN" ?? ? ?

Can it be assumed this is petty bullshit because of Pritzker

Active noise canceling in newer buds goes crazy haywire near sonicators. It sounds like the old AOL boot up sounds inside your brain. It's annoying because it never happened with my previous noise canceling buds, but does with the new

I have a PhD in chemistry and I do productive work with my hands all day. I use a pallet jack like once a week. I haul around dewars of liquid nitrogen and gas cylinders. I was emailing someone about a gantry on Monday.
