If a professor at engineering school assigned this book, would it create a paradox?
According to my experience, the left one does not amount to much.
Yeah, books can’t teach you nepotism
No chapter about Late Sumerian?
They yanked the chapter about selling copper because it got bad reviews
Instruction unclear. Did the chapter get bad reviews or the copper?
The bronze age copper industry was very unforgiving. You deliver reduced purity copper ingots once and suddenly there’s tablets all over the place telling everyone about it. Not that it affected sales; demand for copper was always high. But every single customer makes a comment about the purity.
I curse them all to be wiped out by mysterious alien invaders from across the sea!
Except what they teach you in engineering school, apparently.
i stayed awake for at least 20% of lecture time, so there is that
I hear the chapter called “your girlfriend is studying abroad with stinky Frenchmen, and other pick-me scenarios to ruin your 20s” is particularly riveting.
All that math you learned? Forget it. You’re in spreadsheet land now.
That being said, it’s important to know how to sanity-check the math, especially in the era of Copilot in Excel. We just found that our company’s configuration enables it by default on new workbooks, as we found when it was just…making up numbers when asked to do simple addition.
Year 2194:
“Well, it’s like my ol’ papy copilot always used to say… 2 + 2 = null.”
Stawberries
Did you like those fancy tools they gave you in school? You can cling to your memories of them as you attempt to recreate their functionality in excel without your boss noticing that you’re wasting time on this
I had a programmer giving up on a task today and had to resort to VBA in Excel.
Excel is a shit program and Visual Basic is a shit language, but if you combine them, you can do things that are impossible in any other way.
Someone once said that you can make Excel do anything except coffee. I disagree. It can probably make coffee too.
could be a cook book
It might be nothing but gardening tips
It’s probably a concise history of Italian opera.
It’s the basics of the Klingon language, including pronunciation, syntax, and vocabulary.
nah, it’s usually bomb recipes.
Guess I’m a whole day late on a simalar joke…
- Buy Factorio
- Start playing Factorio
- ???
- THE FACTORY MUST GROW
I love factorio. I’ve owned it before they even had building rockets in the game. Played the shit out of it.
I dont know if its cause the game got more expansive and complicated, or if I just got old and stupid… but I just cant play it anymore. I can get a base started… but after an hour or 3 I just start struggling and give up.
I miss factorio.
Bro don’t exaggerate, Factorio came out in early access in 2016. That’s only… 10… Years ago… 💀💀💀💀💀💀
between that and an actual engineering school book, you’d have access to all the knowledge in the known universe
Yeah seriously that book he’s holding in his hand seems quite small for all the information it claims to contain.
Chapter 1: The Social Sciences
You know what they call an engineer who finished last in their class?
A public servant? Lol jk
Egninear?
The answer is an engineer.
Stubborn?
An asshole who was notably dead weight in every project?
Patent examiner
Not engineer. It takes a few more years in industry and some more exams to get your P. Eng.
We often go into adjacent fields.
Godspeed, I recently dropped out of engineering to go back into art, shits hard, you’re smart
Good call.
Turn it off and turn it back on?
I so wish this is a book about Humanities
That picture does not show the really important information. Is it a brochure, or is it a foot-thick book?
In before the book is all about cooking tips and tricks
How to interact with other humans.
