    Had a brief chat with an engineering lecturer at a university today, he was feeling rather depressed by his students aiming for defence careers.

        Argh, shit, I had a copy of Pedagogy of the Oppressed nearby that I coulda given him. I’m clearly off my “giving people books on a flimsy excuse” game.

        Not that I want to say people should work for the mic, but at this point, are there any other jobs left?

          Right, but I’m pointing towards the fact that’s not an accident. the whole S.T.E.M. push was funded via DARPA and the worst companies around. Go back and look at like MAKER Space Tour type vids from Adam Savage (who is a reasonably decent guy) and they were all funded by Chevron and what have you. gramsci-heh

      You have to admit, it’s kind of weird how whitey only goes to the moon when they’re scared shitless of falling behind on missile technology, and need to pump up aerospace engineering enrollment numbers.
