Still recovering, are getting sick, ejaculated alot recently, was distracted, slight shift in form, etc. There are lots of reasons for changes in strength from week to week it's not a purely uphill trajectory.

Keep your form good and work with where you are, and you will eventually get to where you want to be. Build up to the higher numbers as rushing to where you think you should/want to be will get you injured.

You won't find TV and music very helpful as it's made for native speakers and will be quite fast for you and full of slang. Not saying that you won't get anything out of it but it's not the same as speaking with people face to face who understand that you are trying and are speaking a bit slower and easier.

Definitely read up on the grammar and look for opportunities to use it as that's the best way to improve.

The reason for not punching people in the face (which seems counterintuitive as you REALLY want to in the moment) is that your knuckle bones are so much smaller and more fragile than the cranial bones that protect the brain. And catching their teeth can tear up your skin pretty bad too.

Now that I'm thinking about it I'm glad I'm an adult and don't fight anymore. Winning always felt good but damn did it suck to get your ass kicked for messing with the wrong guy and/or not realizing how many friends he had with him.

But I still like watching the pros go at it. Go Canelo next month!!! You show that Uzbeki monster what North America can do!!!

Mike Pence, like Biden before him, has an unearned reputation simply because he doesn't currently hold any real power.

I didn't read that article but Biden earned his rep by writing the Omnibus crime bill as well as the Patriot Act. And Pence was one of Cheney's go-to guys and the evangelical with the highest office ever. They are much more powerful and dangerous than most people realize.

OT Trump will most likely be removed after the 2018 elections so that Pence or Ryan, who are true believers, can get back to the business of really ****ing us over. And most people will celebrate this as Trump is so disliked (with reason) and it will be seen as a 'responsible adult' who can be bipartisan with the tax cuts, austerity, wars, and social security cuts.

Since you plan on playing coop check out Wildlands or the Division.

The Division is probably hella cheap by now but is fun to play with friends until you get to the level cap, afterwards you can easily see the sides of the Skinner Box, But its totally worth playing if you can get it cheap.

I didn't play Wildlands but its supposed to be about tactics and strategy (which is why I skipped it) but may be what you are looking for. That just came out this year so probably isn't as cheap as the Division but its worth looking into.

I also prefer TPS but Far Cry 4 lets you play it coop but is FPS so maybe look into that too.

Doubt it since we're technically still at war with them as we never signed a peace treaty after the armistice two generations ago.

Plus its really doubtful it'll happen as they don't have oil, China will not just let us Libya their neighbor, and this is mostly to justify the military budgets and distract away from how things are going for us in Syria.

Not that its impossible and it wouldn't really be a stupider start to a world war that the assassination of an archduke was a century ago...

as stuff gets automated, it'll get cheaper and cheaper. which means we will need just a small income in order to maintain our standard of living.

That is definitely one way that this can go and would be the better one for at least 85% of the human race.

Although automation will eliminate some jobs, it will also significantly lower the skill floor on other jobs, allowing people to perform at the level of today's trained experts with far less training and experience.


I'm more inclined to think people will do more like people babysitting or gig jobs because automation will make stuff cheaper, freeing up money for that kind of thing to be viable

Granted gubmint regulations will interfere with that

You two are only thinking about people that will still have employment and wages and not the effects of more of humanity being completely superfluous to the system and without value to it besides the private prisons and similar sectors.

Stuff will only be cheaper until human staffed sweatshops have been mostly put out of business, try thinking a little longer term to see why many don't like where this process will probably take humanity in out current profits-are-everything system where wealth and power are continually concentrating into fewer and fewer hands.

Medicine isn't only about diagnosing conditions, it includes treatment, long term management catered to an individual patient, which a machine can't do. And I call bullshit on that watson article.

I'm not sure why you think that they won't be able to do things that professionally trained humans are often so-so at doing. Do you also work in healthcare and are worried about your long term job stability?

I work in OR support and know that my job will be done by machines someday unless human society collapses before that time, thats the way we are currently going. The hospital I work at is part of a big medical corporation that will totally ditch doctors/nurses/techs of all kinds when it is economical to do so for the huge boost in profits that it will bring. Business is business and in this country healthcare is a business.

medical assistants don't do work that is overtly complex. it's easy to automate, and places like Japan already have tremendous progress in this area.

surgeons and doctors are so highly paid and hard to train that there's huge profit incentive for their roles to be automated. and technology is finally getting to the point where it's technically possible to automate those roles. so we'll see autonomous surgery and autonomous doctors much sooner than we all realize.

much like how self-driving cars are just a couple of years away even though people think they're really far away.

of course i'd fully expect the government to interfere with progress and try to "save da jerbs!!!" like India's government is doing

Yeah surgeon and cath lab jobs are not safe over the mid term as are many doctor jobs.

And that graph just says truck drivers but its every link in the global shipping chain that will be replaced with automation sooner than most people realize. From loading/unloading cargo containers and trucks to ship and truck navigation to end line delivery of goods those are also prime targets for automation.

And the US government won't be getting in the way of this as it'll be very large companies with deep pockets doing it and we'll be pushing for our tech companies to lead the way whenever possible. Union participation and actual political power in this nation are both low enough to not make much of a difference in the mid and long term of this process.

More news coverage

Which is part of it. Also its to keep us all separated from each other as money and power continually concentrate into fewer and fewer hands and so many of us of all colors become superfluous to the system. Many of the traditional wedge issues still work to keep us apart but distrust and dislike of the system itself is increasing. Trump and Bernie were hacks using anti-system rhetoric to get attention, but the fact that they got a lot of attention for it shows that more and more people are starting to wise up a bit as to how we are getting ****ed by the ruling class.

Racism and nativism is increasingly being pushed on and against whites right now to keep them from stopping to think 'wait a second, if things suck for most of us white people then who IS doing well nowadays?' That would not be good for the system at all so they need to be focused on 'others' to prevent solidarity.

Divide and rule has always been a part of this nation as we learned it from Britain who spawned us just as they learned it from Rome who spawned them. To quote Carl Rove during Bush's reelection campaign in 2004: "I don't actually care what people think about god, guns, and gays I just want them to think about god, guns, and gays as opposed to thinking about where their jobs went."
