What do you think about the new Marvel comics characters Safespace, Snowflake, Trailblazer, B Negative and Screentime from “The New Warriors?” | I get a whole lotta meh off it. “POC only metahuman group.” I have no idea who they’re supposed to be opposing. What are they supposed to be doing. Is this generic ‘fight crime’ BS? What’s the goal of these people? I have no idea.
So here’s what I would do.
These kids are all test subjects for a company trying to develop reliable metahuman powers. The company owns a charter school and is very carefully monitoring everything they’re doing. Everything is organized and orchestrated to try to pressure the kids into developing reliable powers due to chemicals in their free lunches. So the bullying? It’s scripted, targeted, and deliberately ignored.
Trailblazer… she’s fine in design but lose the backpack and give her spacial manipulation powers. She can make spaces larger inside than outside. She’s not even aware of this power as she shoves more and more stuff into it before she realizes she’s put half a bookcase in and then she dumps it all out. She’s also a fairly insecure person. She doesn’t like her size and weight, and is constantly torn between people who tell her ‘accept who you are’ and people who pressure her to meet the beauty ideal. She also can’t be sassy. She tries. She wants to have that snap and confidence but often she also just wants to get away from everything. Also, rename her Pandora. Thanks.
Screen time… more or less okay. Lose the ‘internet gas’ please. I could see him getting his powers after being constantly cut off from the net, and he closes his eyes and just imagines his facebook page… and imagines putting up posts… and when he get’s his internet back, he sees the post he imagined. He actually learns of the academy’s manipulation, and becomes more and more the moral leader of the group as he sees more and more problems. However, this starts to gnaw on him as he’s taken in by internet scams, by viruses, and by the fact that there is sick shit out there… and he can’t STOP seeing it. Eventually his friends are just trying to keep him sane and cut back on his powers so he’s not trolling the most depraved reaches of the dark web and getting constantly traumatized by it. “Why don’t I stop looking, Pan? Why can’t I stop looking at this shit?!”
Snowflake. No. Scrap. This is a terrible idea. Make her a white teenaged girl that cares about EVERYTHING and who has an opinion on EVERYTHING and who voices her opinion on EVERYTHING and is offended by EVERYTHING. Worse, the more offended she is, the stronger and more unpredictable her powers become. She wants to be the leader. Not because she’s white, but because she CARES the most. And she constantly is telling Pandora her body size is fine and she’s annoyed by Screen Time fact checking some of her more outlandish claims. The fact is she’s not the leader, and eventually gets called on it, which really makes her sulk, which really makes Pandora explain that they don’t think she’s bad, but she’s not really leading anything. She just tells people stuff, and she doesn’t listen. Maybe she relaxes a little. Maybe she confessess that she just feels guilty all the time and wants to DO something to not feel like shit.
Safezone. Okay, so now that we’ve ditched the psychic twins, starting Safezone out as a big black guy is fine. Now let’s make him a transperson. He’s big and black and has never been comfortable with being big and black. He doesn’t like how everyone expects him to be big and black and athletic. His mental image of Pandora is 100 pounds skinnier and way more beautiful than Pandora thinks of herself. And of course he’s targeted for grief. He doesn’t want to fight people. He just wants to be happy. One of his bullies can become a metahuman C grade villain that likes using Safezone as a punching bag. Safezone tries to ignore Snowflake, tries to protect Safeword, and tries to listen to everyone else. Also Pandora tries to hide the annoyance that even at 6′2″, Safe looks better in a dress than she does.
B-Negative: Burn in a fucking fire. Are goths even still a thing? No. Replace utterly with Nyah. Nyah is an anime cat girl that used to be a pretty average white guy way into manga and anime. When his power activated, they transformed into an anime cat girl. Powers are pretty limited. Claws, reflexes, cute, mallet space, immortal (or rather, 9 lives)… also cat girl so most people either think she’s cosplaying or a freak. But as the ‘fun’ wears off, he realizes he’s basically dead to his folks, who are so estranged that he can’t even prove that he’s their son. His powers are generic. And really, he doesn’t want to be a girl anymore. He’s also trans, but trans human as well as trans sexual. He’s not even sure he wants to be a hero as the tolls start adding up. And no one takes him seriously because, well, he’s a cat girl. Like on the scale of heroes, he’s a joke. It’s like he won the lottery, spent it on 400000 tons of ice cream, and watched it all melt. What kind of powers might he have had if he wanted to be a brain surgeon? He spirals into depression and almost kills himself.
Wallbreaker: What?! A sixth hero!? Of course. Wallbreaker is Joseph Rodrigo-Ortiz, a Latino guy who likes to portray himself as a cool and laid back guy, who was brought into the country illegally when he was three. Don’t cause trouble, Joseph. He’s a devout catholic… but he can’t hide the fact that he’s pissed off at the world, and especially pissed off at migrants getting arrested at the border. One of his first ‘missions’ he gets the team to do is break people out of an ICE facility who are facing deportation. It goes horribly and one of the migrants is shot in the chaos. His powers are also relatively basic. He can increase his density, and thus increase his strength and resistance to damage. When he’s in place, he can get hit by a bus and not be harmed… but of course he’s find himself embedded in the steel. He’s got super strength with no super leverage and has to be careful not to break things simply by being there. Snowflake pisses him off with her ‘It’s terrible, but-’ lines. He’s creeped out by Safezone, but wants to protect Screentime. Nyah just desperately wants to have a friend to hang out with, and he can recognize that. He thinks Pandora should stop eating so much.
Eventually the team realizes that they’re scheduled for ‘genetic degradation and analysis’ and they break out of the academy and go on the run. After all, going back to their families just makes them targets.

What are some first date tips? | If you’re a man dating a woman, I’d highly recommend you shit test her right from the get-go.
Make her wait for around 30 min. without reacting to calls or messages. If she really wants you, she’ll wait forever, women just are built like that. If she’s in for a free meal just out of boredom ‘see what happens’ then she’ll be gone after 10 min tops.
Another thing you should do is to test how easy she is with her own money on the date or how open minded to changes of plan.
That will give you a pretty good idea of where you stand with her.
Basically if she wants you she’ll wait and stick around forever (at least an hour)+pay for shit on her own+be very open to whatever changes to the planned date schedule you make.
Another point is to not misinterpret things and treat them accordingly. “I don’t kiss on the first date” or “I don’t have sex on the first date” means nothing but that she doesn’t kiss or have sex with YOU on the first date. Don’t mistaken this for a general statement, even if she disguises it as one!
And don’t be a nice guy. If you like her then you push for a kiss and you push for sex after the date, WHILE RESPECTING BOUNDARIES. Women do actually like that, because it makes you masculine, they are not dumb, they know you want sex and they see right through your passive aggressive nice guy pedestalizing her as an angel with a thought process of “she is so nice and beautiful, she would never want to have sex so quickly”, because yes SHE WOULD if you’re actually THE GUY.
Yeah, I know this will get a lot of hate from the usual suspects, but we men don’t have time to waste a life either. Dating market is so cringe at the moment, no point in doing it otherwise.

What exact race are Assyrians? | My dad was Assyrian, so I guess I’m half.
This pic you can see (I am on the right) I look quite middle-eastern, I’ve got an aquiline nose too which is common in Semites. My old lady is English.
My dad
My great grandpa
So as you can see we have Armenoid features, we are evidently caucasian but ‘swarthy’. I’ve been called a Jew before, I’ve been asked if I was Turkish, someone thought I looked Italian…I personally think I look Iberian…Skin colour variability can also change the look of someone.

Are online classes and coaching worth the cost? | My experience of joining online course months ago
1 . Quick skills learning
At work or school, professionals and students usually refrain from interacting with coaches/teachers for a variety of factors – peer pressure may be one – but at home, there are no such distractions. You can easily learn and grow your competency at your pace. That allows you to get skills that can easily put you into a great MBA school, or the dream job you always wanted.
2 . Learn while you work from home
Working from home has given us a unique advantage to develop and enhance our skills as we work. Get ahead of the competition while you can – when the world opens up, the race is only going to get even more hectic.
3 . Real-time performance tracking
Online, every assignment, every project you undertake can be tracked based on a number of parameters. These detailed reports give a clear understanding of what’s going wrong, if anything, and helps to improve.
4 . Engaging & interactive
With the kind of tools and technology at our disposal, online classes are more engaging and interactive than regular ones. Surveys, polls, instant quizzes – these are available across all smart devices. Makes it easier for everyone to learn!
5 . No distractions allowed
The pressure of someone behind your back as you work/learn. All gone. It’s just you, the tutor, and your lesson. And with the kind of technology at our disposal, it’s easier to learn one-on-one with visual cues and online tools.

As an American, do you agree that "statistics" that show the US way down low at #37 for quality of healthcare is far-left propaganda that folks in Europe, Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand love to repeat, when in reality the US is always #1? | No, the US being way down low at #37 for quality of healthcare isn't far-left propaganda. It's fact.
Of course, Britain, the rest of Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and all the others in the top 36 cheat. They provide healthcare for all their citizens.

When should you not use serverless? | Three general categories:
High-performance codeVery high request throughput ($$$)Data processing / ETL
High-performance code: The point of serverless is, well, that you don’t think about the server. While this is great most of the time, it breaks down when you need tight integration with the underlying hardware, ex:
Disk management — serverless platforms don’t make it easy to interact with a fast persistent disk. Generally you’ll get fast temp space and slow persistent disk. But if you need both persistent and fast disk writes, you may be out of luckData / network locality — similar to above, “standard” serverless offerings don’t offer you much control over where the code runs. External resources are always a network hop away.OS optimization / tuning — now, this is breaking down with the rise of Fargate, GKE, Knative, and other serverless + container combos. But answering with respect to “pure” serverless platforms like Lambda: you don’t get control over the operating system, so the low-level fiddly optimizations you can do on a Linux VM (buffer / cache tuning, etc) aren’t available.
Very high request throughput ($$$): Lambda and Cloud Functions charge along two main vectors (with caveats around reserved capacity, etc):
Price per ms * CPUPrice per request
The first sounds fine at first (the raw CPU price isn’t wildly uncompetitive with a VM) — except that requests round up to the nearest 100ms. If you’re running a microservice which responds within 5ms, you’re paying 20x the nominal resource cost!
Add the request price on top of that, and the fully-managed serverless solutions can get very expensive if used unwisely. If you’re running services which process thousands of requests a second, you’ll likely want to manage the infrastructure yourself (even if you end up running your own “serverless” infrastructure)
Data processing / ETL: There’s an interpretation here where “serverless” includes “cloud native data processing” (I mean, I’ve never personally seen a BigQuery server), but by the common definition, most ETL jobs aren’t suited for serverless processing.
Related to the first point — if your application’s job is to pipe data from one socket into another socket, with some in-memory buffering, slicing, and dicing, serverless isn’t a great place for it.
This answer is only valid through Q2 2020. Don’t throw it in my face in 2022 when AWS releases Lambda Extract Native Pipes for low-cost, high-performance data-local ETL. Or whatever.

Is it true that Vlad the Impaler is a national hero in Romania and, if so, why is that the case? | If you ask this question, you certainly do not know who he was. In few words, he was one of the three or four Christian Princes of the 15-th century, the century of most dangerous expansion of the Turks, in which they took Constantinople, who had some success in fighting against them, winning some battles and herewith contributing to curb their expansion. THIS is what you should know about him, the rest you can forget.

Will there be a gender de-transitioning epidemic in the coming years? | Absolutely
Timeline of a female detransitioner.
Right now, we're seeing a transitioning epidemic, where millions of people who aren't actually suffering from gender dysphoria decide to transition. Most of these people who are unnecessarily transitioning belong to three groups, all of which have significant overlap with each other:
The transtrendersTransition for attention
The teenagersMany confused, often autistic, teenagers who transition in the hopes of belonging to something.
The confusedThink they have gender dysphoria, while not actually having it.
Autistic children especially are vulnerable, as they, being isolated from the rest of society, often seek something to belong to.
[LINKED_TEXT: [1]] [URL: #TGgDl][LINKED_TEXT: [2]] [URL: #NuhVX] Even the youngest members of society aren't safe anymore:
Does anyone else notice how defeated the father looks?
[LINKED_TEXT: [3]] [URL: #Riqau] These confused individuals are usually put on hormone therapy, often undergo surgeries, not to help them, but to make big pharma and surgeons rich.
Obviously, living a lie is very hard, thus it's only a matter of time before it all falls apart, as hundeds of thousands, possibly millions, of people will detransition, often after having caused irreversible damage to their bodies, including a deformed bone structure, permanent infertility and possible having removed their testes/overies and thus nearly all their testosterone/estrogen production.
[LINKED_TEXT: [4]] [URL: #hpIvv][LINKED_TEXT: [5]] [URL: #JDjHS] We're already seeing the first signs of this happening.

So the answer to your question is yes. We will see many detransitioners in the coming few years.

What do British conservatives think about such things as gun rights, ending abortion, ending gay marriage, and restoring the death penalty? | British Conservatives are nothing like American Conservatives. They are civilised and have some empathy with their fellow human beings. American Conservatives who believe in the list of things you mention in your question sound more like neo Nazi storm troopers on mission.

If you quit Quora, do you think anyone would miss you? | My mum was busy in household work
Me: Maa aaj Nani ke barsi ba (Mummy today is death anniversary of grandmother)
Maa: Aaj maai ke marla 5 saal ho gya (Today it's five years since my mother died)
Me: Dekhkle Maa koi kehu ke yaad na kare la to hamni ke chinta chor or jindagi jee
( See mumma no one remembers anyone so stop wasting your time in us live your life.)
So it was a short conversation with me and my mum
She lost her mum five years ago
You can imagine this pain
But she is lost now, we do remember her someday as today our teary eyes made us remember her we are busy in our lives and happiness that we hardly remember her
Remember that song
सुख के सब साथी, दुख में ना कोई ।।
Let's leave that ‘sukh' we all are chased and fucked by 'dukh' that we have no time to remember anyone.
Now coming on Quora it's a virtual platform where people interact via virtual media
I'm not famous here I hardly talk with 7–10 people 10–20 people upvote my answer around 1k people who without seeing my name read my answer.
So to whom I should expect that they'll miss me :
The one who talk to me: They'll miss me for one week, let's say month then what, I'll go unname because no one gets that much attached on chats 😒The one who upvote my answer: There are better options than me available in this ocean of writers.The one who read my answer: .

Seriously you were expecting something 😒
Let's suppose I was popular here with 1k followers than
I would get remembered when there someone will ask to gain few bucks from QPP with lame questions like
'Where has Kalank gone?’
‘Where is Indian Nobita?’
And this would go for few months and then unname
Reason is

What was the viewership of "Squid Game" in its first 28 days on Netflix? | As an AI language model, my responses are based on information available up until September 2021, and I don't have real-time data or access to viewership statistics for specific shows or time periods. Therefore, I cannot provide the exact viewership numbers for "Squid Game" in its first 28 days on Netflix.
However, it is worth noting that "Squid Game" gained significant popularity and became a global phenomenon shortly after its release on Netflix. It achieved widespread acclaim and garnered a large viewership both in South Korea and internationally.
Netflix usually guards its viewership numbers and does not release detailed viewership data for specific shows or timeframes. Therefore, to obtain the specific viewership figures for "Squid Game" in its first 28 days, it would be best to refer to official statements or reports from Netflix or reliable industry sources that may have access to that information.

Have you ever been judged for your appearance? | I am a huge basketball fan and I do my best to play as often as possible. There is a group of guys I like to play with on Sunday nights who are very competitive and always play at a high level.
With all of that being said, I am a white male. The guys I play with are all black males. Being these are pickup basketball games, new guys come out every week and bring their friends. It never fails, every week, one of these new guys will start picking up players for his team and I find myself being picked last or not being picked at all.
There is no doubt in my mind that the color of my skin is the main contributing factor in my not getting picked. In fact, I have had guys tell me later, after having played a few games, that they misjudged my skill level.
I in no way want this to seem like I am calling these guys racist or prejudice. These guys are some of my best friends. But I am definitely being misjudged for my appearance. It is fun to prove them wrong I must say.

Who really runs the world? | The question of who "really" runs the world is complex and subject to different interpretations depending on one's perspective and beliefs. There is no single entity or group that universally holds complete control over the entire world. Instead, global affairs are influenced by a complex web of political, economic, social, and technological forces involving various actors, organizations, and governments.
Some of the key players and entities that have significant influence on a global scale include:
Governments: The governments of powerful nations, particularly those with significant military and economic capabilities, play a crucial role in shaping global policies and geopolitical dynamics.International Organizations: Entities such as the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Trade Organization (WTO), and other international organizations play roles in addressing global issues and coordinating multilateral efforts.Corporations: Multinational corporations, particularly those in the tech, finance, and energy sectors, exert considerable influence on the global economy, trade, and technological advancement.Financial Institutions: Central banks and major financial institutions significantly impact global monetary policy, financial stability, and economic development.Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs): NGOs and civil society organizations advocate for various social, environmental, and humanitarian causes and can influence public opinion and government policies.Media: Mass media, including news outlets and social media platforms, shape public discourse and have the power to influence public opinion and political outcomes.Technological Giants: Tech companies with global reach have a profound impact on information dissemination, innovation, and societal dynamics.
It's important to note that power and influence are often distributed unequally across the world, and some regions and populations may experience more marginalization or limited agency in global affairs.
It's crucial to approach discussions about global power structures with a critical and nuanced perspective, considering multiple viewpoints and recognizing that the distribution of power is constantly evolving and subject to change. The dynamics of global influence are interconnected and influenced by a complex interplay of various factors and interests.

What is the best onboarding software for SaaS? I'm looking for a program that will allow me to overlay a walk through. I can take people step by step through the setup, so that they can get started working immediately. | User onboarding is a tricky business. Most business applications, although they have a new user onboarding system in place (emails, product tours, user manuals, etc.), still haven’t figured out the key to actually getting users to engage effectively with a new product. This leads to poor user onboarding.
Poor user onboarding mean:
Sporadic user engagementLoss of productivity, efficiencyLow ROI for the application
Any business that has invested millions of dollars on a business application would definitely not appreciate what we’ve mentioned above.
The best onboarding software would be one that effectively guides users across the functionalities of a product and help them reach what we call - the ‘AHA’ moment quickly.
Essentially, you need to convert your users to happy customers.
One of the best onboarding software that does this is Whatfix.
Quick intro - [LINKED_TEXT: Whatfix] [URL: https://whatfix.com/?utm_source=quora&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=quora_answers&utm_term=qid_n1] is a digital adoption platform that uses a unique technology called interactive walkthroughs to guide or handhold users across multiple touchpoints of a web application.
[LINKED_TEXT: (Pstt…want to know more about digital adoption platforms?)] [URL: https://academy.whatfix.com/digital-adoption-what-it-is-and-why-you-need-it/?utm_source=quora&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=quora_answers&utm_term=qid_n1]
Let me explain what happens.
When a new user lands on the web application, he/she is most likely to find it complex and a little tricky to use, considering its quite different from what he was using previously.
For instance, a salesperson who has been using Excel sheets for a long time will naturally find it hard to use an application like Salesforce despite its obvious advantages. Naturally, since the user is more accustomed and habitual in using Excel sheets while he’s brand new to Salesforce.
So the key is to get your user to acquaint themselves with the application and build a habit out of using it. This means you need to constantly guide and support the users.
[LINKED_TEXT: Interactive walkthroughs] [URL: https://whatfix.com/resources/ebook/interactive-walkthroughs-guide/?utm_source=quora&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=quora_answers&utm_term=qid_n1] do exactly this through a series of balloon tips or tooltips that guide the users across a product. And this happens in real-time!
Here is a snippet of how [LINKED_TEXT: Whatfix onboards new users across Salesforce] [URL: https://whatfix.com/salesforce-adoption/?utm_source=quora&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=quora_answers&utm_term=qid_n1]
In addition to an interactive onboarding experience, Whatfix has several other advantages, so to speak.
Enables quick and easy creation of walkthroughs with zero coding efforts.Intelligent segmentation that shows content based on the role and location of the user within the application.Enables you to repurpose walkthroughs into smart URLs, PDFs, videos, slides to suit the learning needs of different users.Enables the creation of walkthroughs in over 50 languages allowing you to cater to a wide variety of audiences24/7 contextual, interactive guidanceMonitor user behavior with the help of in-depth analytics.

I know most IDF soldiers are good, and harming anyone is against the IDF code of ethics, but why are they many videos of (bad apples) IDF soldiers who harm Palestinians and what is being done to stop them? | There’s a certain level of confirmation bias at work.
A visual demonstration of how the media can distort the truth. Although I wonder why soldiers are simultaneously giving a man water and holding a gun to his head.
First of all, harming people is not against the Israeli Defense Force code of ethics. They’re soldiers, harming people is part of the job description. The IDF exists to protect Israel, and while their main role is to serve as a deterrent, they have taken part in numerous wars over the years. That being said the IDF do try to minimize civilian casualties when they use force.
IDF soldier pictured with Palestinian woman.
The IDF are a constant presence in Palestine. As such most interactions between the IDF and Palestinians are peaceful, if not exactly friendly. But these interactions don’t make the news because they’re not newsworthy. If 99 IDF soldiers go about their day and 1 shoots someone, it’s the shooter you see on video.
Then there’s the issue of context. Take this infamous photo of Vietnamese Brigadier General Nguyen Ngoc Loan shooting a bound prisoner. It’s one of the most iconic images of the Vietnam War, and really brought to light just how brutal the fighting had gotten, that “our side” was executing unarmed men in the streets.
What most people don’t know is that Eddie Adams, the photographer, apologized to the Brigadier after the photo was published. You see, the man being shot, one Nguyen Van Lem (no relation), was a terrorist. Shortly before the photo was taken he murdered Lt. Col. Nguyen Tuan (also no relation), his wife, his 6 children, and his 80 year old mother.
The photo is a lie of omission. It accurately depicts an event which actually happened, an unarmed and bound man being executed by one of the “good guys”. But it doesn’t show the events leading up to the execution. Events which might not justify the action, but at least explain it.
And that’s often the case with videos of IDF soldiers committing acts of violence. You don’t necessarily know what happened before that.
[LINKED_TEXT: FACT CHECK: Does This Photograph Show a Palestinian Boy Shot by Israeli Soldiers?] [URL: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/palestinian-boy-shot-photo/]
And then there’s the fact that you can rarely trust the things you see online. The above photo, which was found circulating online, is from the 2012 film Mamlakat al-Naml, Rather obvious in hindsight, people usually look this photogenic after being shot.
And it’s not the only one. I’ve seen photo edits being passed off as authentic. I’ve seen pictures of foreign warzones labelled as pictures of Palestine. Once I ever saw a photo of IDF soldiers protecting an Israeli boy mistaken for a photo of them attacking a Palestinian boy, Israelis and Palestinians look very similar.
For the sake of fairness here is a video about a Palestinian special effects artist, Mariam Salah, which is being used as “proof” that Palestinians aren’t being killed by the IDF.
[LINKED_TEXT: Does This Video Show Injuries Created with Makeup to Fool the Public About Atrocities?] [URL: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/makeup-artists-atrocities/]
The conflict between Israel and Palestine is long, complex, and deeply personal for many people. It can be hard to find an unbiased source of information, and often times misinformation spreads because people usually don’t fact check stories they agree with. Add in the news’ habit of focusing on the negative, and it’s easy to imagine the IDF is made up exclusively of bloodthirsty monsters chomping at the bit to kill Palestinians.
They’re not, they’re just soldiers defending their nation.
But in the process of defending their nation people die. Sometimes even civilians. That isn’t going to change until the conflict ends. And it’s been going on for 70+ years with the best minds in the world failing to come up with a peace deal that pleases everyone.
So I’m afraid I don’t have a solution here.

Is Bangladesh more powerful and prosperous than Pakistan? | Bangladesh will very shortly overtake and will continue to remain ahead of pakistan for a long time to come.
the “THE BHOOKA BANGALEE AND POOR TAKA’ are exacting revenge by their actions.
there is less gender discrimination and people wish to work hard. In fact the economic development of bangladsh is mainly due to its womenfolk;
it has a progressive govt which is investing heavily on its people and not in a defence race against its large neighbour.
pakistans national income is all going to debt servicing and defence and there is no money to invest on people. the terorism keeps away FDI.
so long BANGLADESH does not follow Pakistan its future is bright

Should I choose electrical and electronics engineering in BITS Pilani or would an MSc in economics be better? I'm mediocre in studies as I got only 240 in the BITSAT 2023. | Choosing between Electrical and Electronics Engineering in BITS Pilani and pursuing an MSc in Economics depends on your interests, career goals, and aptitude. Here are some points to consider:
Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) in BITS Pilani:
1. Interest and Aptitude: Evaluate if you have a genuine interest in engineering, particularly in the field of electrical and electronics. Consider your aptitude for subjects like mathematics, physics, and problem-solving. EEE requires a strong foundation in technical concepts and analytical thinking.
2. Career Opportunities: EEE offers a wide range of career opportunities in various industries, including power systems, telecommunications, electronics, robotics, and automation. The demand for electrical and electronics engineers is generally high, and there are opportunities for research and development as well.
3. BITS Pilani Reputation: BITS Pilani is a highly reputed institution known for its quality education and strong industry connections. The brand value of the institute can positively impact placements and career prospects. However, note that academic performance and skills are crucial for securing good placements irrespective of the institute.
MSc in Economics:
1. Interest in Economics: Evaluate your interest in economics as a subject. If you have a passion for understanding economic systems, policy analysis, research, and data analysis, pursuing an MSc in Economics could be a suitable choice.
2. Career Opportunities: An MSc in Economics can lead to diverse career paths, including roles in finance, consulting, data analysis, research, government agencies, think tanks, and academia. Economic skills and understanding are valuable in decision-making and policy formulation across sectors.
3. Academic Performance: While you mention being mediocre in studies, it's important to consider if you have a genuine interest and the potential to excel in economics. Academic performance in the chosen field, research experience, internships, and networking will play a significant role in securing opportunities.
Ultimately, the decision should align with your interests, strengths, and long-term career goals. If you have a genuine interest in electrical and electronics engineering, are willing to put in the effort to improve academically, and see potential in the field, pursuing EEE at BITS Pilani can offer good prospects. On the other hand, if you have a strong passion for economics, excel in the subject, and can envision a career in related fields, an MSc in Economics may be a better choice.
Consider researching further, speaking with professionals in both fields, and seeking guidance from mentors or academic counselors to make an informed decision based on your unique circumstances.

What facts about Mumbai would people not believe unless they come to Mumbai? | All your dreams don't get fulfilled even if it is called the city of dreams.
Mumbai is surely an inviting place to live in but the way people live here is just impossible anywhere else, people won't believe if you tell them a 1bhk apartment rent would cost around 60k or even more.As many big buildings, as many slums. The starking difference can only be seen here.The rich get richer and the poor get poorer (almost literally in Mumbai)Eventually everyone gets a job and finds something to do. (no matter how many people are there, no matter how much the demand is, people eventually find something to do)It is safe, compared to other cities in the country, being a girl I have never been intimated by any guy. I feel Mumbai is the safest place I have been compared to all the other cities I have lived.No one is going to believe when you tell them people can live on just vada pav and chai.You are seriously going to get looks from people when you tell them that.. You can just live your day including eating outside in just 100rs.
No matter what anyone will ever say, Mumbai is a place where once you come, there is no going back. The city makes you a Mumbaikar no matter where you are from or what you do!

How long would it take the shuttle to travel to Neptune? | I would concur with the other answers. Even assuming the dry mass of the shuttle as the final mass, and using the total payload capacity of the shuttle to Low Earth orbit for fuel for the SSME’s, the shuttle can’t reach Neptune. From what I can calculate, by using the payload capacity for additional fuel, you can get an additional 1.3 km/s of dV added on top of the normal operational budget that the shuttle could achieve normally. Unfortunately, this won’t even allow the shuttle to break Earth’s gravity well, let alone achieve a transfer orbit to Neptune. However, if a shuttle could somehow achieve this orbit, it would take roughly 25 years to reach Neptune.

Why do people vape? | I got to know the world of vapes in 2015. Prior to that, I used to smoke more than 20 cigarettes every day, but I felt that it could harm my health so I decided to quit it as soon as I could.
I had tried other methods trying to quit smoking common cigarettes, but none of them succeeded. Even so, I started vaping and stayed dual for some time, reducing nicotine dosages over time.
Thankfully, I managed to stop smoking ordinary cigarettes and today I like vaping for habit only. I don't use any [LINKED_TEXT: juice] [URL: https://dampfabriek.com/] added with nicotine, since today I only like vape to relax and enjoy the flavors.

Was there any specific reason why all of the Mars rovers use wheels rather than tank tracks? It would seem like tank tracks should be good options for Mars. | I know it was tested early on - like, back in the 70’s… I think the main issue was, you can’t *fold* a tank tread. If you look at the rovers we put on Mars (with the exception of Sojourner, which was about the size of a toaster oven), they use wheels and struts that have to be unfolded from the body - a tread wouldn’t allow that.

I found a red room on the deep web, how can I report it without getting myself in trouble? | There is an FBI site on the darknet for reporting sites, but as others have said red rooms are a myth designed to steal your bitcoin. I wouldn't worry about it because streaming murders over the darknet with today's technology would be near impossible…. Just try to use the onion network to watch a YouTube video and you'll see why.

Is false surrendering a war crime? Has this tactic ever been used in war? | The Japanese in WWII would ‘surrender’ but have a grenade or other explosives hidden under their clothing and attempt to get close enough to the Americans before detonating it to try and take some of the enemy with them.
|
in any way? | Yes. Self-confidence can help a person in far more ways than is readily apparent, much like the fact that 90% of human communication is non-verbal. First, it can help someone have the courage to face the unknown, always a scary proposition for human beings, as far back as we go. Being able to rely on oneself to handle anything is key in facing the unknown. It can help one to face their fears. It is my own personal experience that if you allow your fears to rule you, so that you flee from them, they will grow without limit, and seem unconquerable the entire time, however, the moment you turn and face your fear, no matter how large it may seem to be, it will shrink to less than a yapping dog that has no teeth. When I first began studying the martial arts, I was beset with many fears, and had for years had a recurring nightmare in which I was beaten and shot, and no matter how hard I tried to fight back, I was always in slow motion, it felt like I was coated in molasses, but when I reached advanced blue belt, halfway through the American Karate belt system, and about a third of the way to Black Belt, I began to win in my dreams, for the first time in my life. Less than a month later, I was undefeated and have remained so ever since. In life, I was afraid to get in the ring, I'm not even sure why, it seems more like I was afraid of losing or looking foolish or inept than I was of getting hurt. But I made myself compete, and much to my surprise, I was good at it, I had some natural ability, and I won several times. After the first 2 or 3 tournaments, I never felt fear of the ring again, or of any physical confrontation. I am aware and confident of my ability to protect myself and more. I have however, felt pre competition jitters, and anxiety in my desire to win, but not fear. What's really strange is, at one point in my life I was a scratch golfer and attempting to get as good as I was able and see if that was good enough to compete at any professional level. But no matter how adept at the game I managed to become, in any competition, no matter how trivial, standing over that little white ball, I would get overwhelmed with anxiety and lose almost all of my confidence to hit it the way I wanted to, despite the fact that I knew I could, especially on the first tee. I was able to conquer this fear enough to help my partner and I win a major at my country club, the two man match play. I sunk a forty foot birdie putt on the 19th hole(1st play-off hole) for the win. It helped that my partner was about eight feet or so, and our opponents had about 12 and 20 footers respectively, but even so, nevermind that had I missed the ball prolly would have gone off the green, lol, I didn't, and I will remember that moment all my life. Even so, the jitters never left me in golf, although I did manage to play through them. I could not have done that without confidence in my ability, despite having the shakes. Back to the topic, confidence is apparent in one's over all bearing, when you apply for a job, the prospective employer can easily see if you are sure of yourself, or arrogant, or unsure, regardless of your demeanor. There is something obvious about a person with self-confidence, it isn't blatant nor belligerent, it's actually rather comforting to those that see it in you. When someone who is confident takes on a challenge or task, they are better able to successfully complete it, because all of their resources are being used to solve the issue, instead of being fragmented with worry or insecurity. When one is confident in themselves, they lend that feeling to those around them, and thus they pass it on, in some measure. There are other ways confidence can help a person, but rather than list them all, I would prefer to challege you, dear reader, how many other ways can you think of that confidence might be an asset?

A 500 ft. train travelling 500 ft per minute must travel through a 500 ft long tunnel. How long will it take the train to travel through the tunnel? | Speed of the train = 500 ft/ min
Length of the train (L1) = 500 ft
Length of the tunnel (L2) = 500 ft
Time taken by the train to travel through the tunnel is
T= (L1+ L2) /speed
T= (500+500) /500
T = 2 min
|
Why did the army get rid of digital camo? | If you mean the US Army then that's easy. The pattern design they chose didn't match the colour scheme and basically that meant the US Govt was helping terrorists murder their troops.
Apparently (according to other quora posts) the design was sound but supposed to work with other colours, and something about night. Anyway, apparently the right colours didn't look cool, so, a compromise was found but in the classic 2+2= 9, US troops ended up with OCP and some were dead.
I like to think of OCP as being the American Sa80. Great on paper, OK on base but terrible in the field.
As lots of other countries have continued to use digicam with success (and the USMC), the problem with the can sits squarely with the Pentagon.

What are some cool, lesser known facts about the Indian Railways? | Indian Railway 's doing marvellous engineering work from Ramban to Pamban. :)
Read carefully, read full to understand the tag line I gave just above, long answer but very very interesting.
The JUSBRL project now known as Udhampur Srinagar Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL, after well functioning Jammu - Udhampur rail line) is one of the greatest example of engineering in the world.
(Pic - Srinagar Railway Stn, self clicked, 2013)
This rail line majorly divided into three sections Leg 1: Udhampur - Katra (25 kms) Leg 2: Karta - Qazigund (129 kms) Leg 3: Qazigund - Baramulla (119 kms)
Leg 3 completed in 2009, Leg 1 completed in 2014. The most difficult and challenging job is leg 2. (Estimated date Dec 2022).
Lets focus on Just Leg 2.
129 kms of which Banihal to Qazigund 18 kms was thrown open for public in 2013. This 18 kms includes the longest (currently) train tunnel of India, PirPanjal Tunnel (T-80) length 11.2 kms.
The remaining 111 kms of leg 2 is most difficult and hence most interesting too.
Highlights of Leg 2.
1. Has longest train tunnel in India T-49 length 12.75 kms
2. Has second longest train tunnel T-80 length 11.2 kms
3. Has highest railway bridge in the world over river Chenab 359 meters.
4. 1st cable-stayed bridge of Indian railways.
Now, coming back to remaining section (i.e., 111 kms of leg 2)
I'll say one thing about the it. It has 163 kms of tunnel length! And 7 kms of bridges! Combined length both. YES.
That because every tunnel length more than 2.5 kms requires a parallel escape tunnel too. That's 97 kms of main tunnel and 66 kms of escape tunnel.
OVERALL, leg 2 contains
29 tunnels - 108.2 kms combined length
81 bridges - 7.3 kms combined length
Remaining land ~ 10%
I remind you this is all happening in seismic zone 5, & landslide prone area.
Not only that
Leg 2 route is virgin land, so before the construction even starts or before the track alignment done, the first task was to make connecting roads for the supply.
Leg 3
Now when your mind is full of tunnels we enter Kashmir now and see the Leg 3. The most interesting thing of this section is again number of tunnels. Which is ZERO. But can you make a guess on number of bridges?
I'll give you few more seconds to make a guess.
119 kms of leg 3 contains 811 bridges of combined length of just 4.2 kms !! One of the most beautiful bridge in this section is near Pampore Rly Stn.
(Pic credit - Sajjad Rafeeq, this pic was cover pic of NatGeo Traveler India)
(Same location - Self clicked 2014)
(Same location in Winter, credits - Shahid Mushtaq)
Now, the last section Leg 1
This helped people to reach Katra specially. This section has 10 tunnels of combined length 11 kms and 38 bridges of combined length 1.4 kms.
The one of the major highlight of this section is this Jajjhar bridge, which is the heightest steel guarded bridge in Indian Railway (not the longest after Bogibeel in Asaam).
Over and all. I would like to say, these all are engineering marvels. Special thanks to Northern Railway, Konkan Railway & IRCON corp to work on these highly challenging projects.
Indian Railways is really an example of world's best engineering. From North to South. From Ramban to Pamban :) [LINKED_TEXT: Ministry of Railways, India] [URL: https://www.quora.com/topic/Ministry-of-Railways-India]
thanks for reading. (Typed on mobile, apologies for the mistakes, space etc)

What will happen to the twin flame runner if he does not do the inner healing work? | I don’t think it’s as simple as that. Nothing will happen to anyone, they’ll just continue living their life. But like in any dynamic where you are not truly being authentic to yourself, you will eventually be forced to face yourself. How you are forced to face yourself is another question entirely- some people, whether they’re on this tfj or not are forced to face themselves in a way that completely disrupts their life, everything has to go, while others may go through and experience a smoother ride, with some emotional upheaval but otherwise relatively balanced etc. it all depends on how much shit you have accumulated over your life (or lives…who’s to know). Being on the tfj does seem to accelerate this process and the experience can be incredibly intense for both counterparts . Source comes in and forces you to look at your life. The mirror is severe, scrutinising and leaves no stone unturned. For both twins (if they on this journey together, for some seem to be more solitary journeys, where one of the pair acts more as a catalyst and nothing more), the ‘work’ is forced upon them. And like most people in life, the twins seek balance within this connection. There is no way to deal with the heartbreak and longing other than to see yourself clearly and your connection to Source. You are forced to remember and re-experience yourself as a Spiritual being at the behest of God and your higher self.

How do I get my son to stop making music? | Sorry, but why would you want to. Mine lot have always loved music and wanted to follow in the career arena. I always insisted that if that was their chosen profession I would support their efforts, with one big BUT, that they must also qualify in something that would support them financially, as it’s had to get a break in music. They did, photographer, estate agent, IT, and teaching. only one has had music published, and within a year lost her voice, nowawaiting surgery. My point being , encourage them, but ensure they are realistic about life in general and give them a back up plan. Many kids love music , whether playing or just listening, it’s good for them, in so many ways. Plus you can get great earplugs nowadays, lol

Are Durga, Parvati and Radha Rani the same? | I don’t think so they are all same,as mentioned on para. 800, verses 41 to 47,and also on para. 804, verses 48 to 70 on [LINKED_TEXT: The Ninth Book: Chapter 1] [URL: http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/db/bk09ch01.htm] of Devi Bhagwatam, where Narayana described about the Fifth S’akti, Devî Râdhikâ to Nârada.Narayana said “Radha Herself is the Life of all; dearer than life even to S’rî Krisna; and she is highly more beautiful and superior to all the other Prakriti Devîs.She dwells in everything; She is very proud of Her good fortune (Saubhâgyam) ; Her glory is infinite; and She is the wife, the left body, as it were, of S’rî Krisna and She is not in any way inferior to Him, either in quality or in the Tejas (Fiery Spirit) or in any other thing. She is higher than the Highest; the Essence of all, infinitely superior, the First of all, Eternal, of the nature of the Highest Bliss, fortunate, highly respected, and worshipped by all. She is, the Presiding Devî of the Râsa Lîlâ of S’rî Krisna. From Her has sprung the Râsa mandalam and She is the Grace and the Ornament of the Râsa mandalam (the dance in a circle in Râsa).
She is the Lady of the Râsa Lîlâ, the Foremost of the Jovial, humourous (witty) persons and dwells always in Râsa. Her abode is in Goloka and from Her have come out all the Gopîkâs. Râsa – the circular dance of Krisna and the cow-herdesses of Vrindâvana. Her nature is the Highest Bliss, the Highest Contentment, and Excessive Joy; She transcends the three Sattva, Rajo and Tamo Gunas and is Nirâkâra (without any particular form); but She dwells everywhere but unconnected with any. She is the soul of all. She is without any effort to do anything and void of Ahamkâra. She assumes forms only to show Her favour to Her Bhaktas. The intelligent learned men (Pundits) read Her Mahimâ (glories) in meditating on Her according to Vedas. The chief of the Devas and the Munis could never see Her; Her clothings are fire-proof and She is decorated with many ornaments all over Her body. Her body looks as if the crores of moons have risen all at once; She is the Giver of Bhakti (devotion) towards Krisna, services towards Krisna; and She bestows all wealth and prosperity.She incarnated Herself as the daughter of one Gopa (cow-herd), named Vrisabhânu. And Earth was blessed by the touch of Her feet. She is such as god Brahmâ and the other Devas could never perceive Her by any of their senses, yet everyone at Vrindâvan saw Her very easily. She is the Gem amongst women. And when She is seen on the breast of Krisna, it seems that lightnings flash in the blue mass of clouds in the sky. In days gone by, god Brahmâ practised several austerities for sixty thousand years to purify Himself by seeing the nails of Her toe; but far from seeing that, He could not have that even in his dreams. At last He succeeded in seeing Her at Vrindâvana and became blessed. O Child Nârada! This is the fifth Prakriti and She is denominated as Râdhâ. Every female in every Universe is sprung from a part of S’rî Râdhâ or part of a part. O Nârada! Thus I have described to you the five Highest Prakritis, राधा लक्ष्मीः दुर्गा सरस्वती च सावत्री ॥

What are some arguments I can make to fight a fire hydrant ticket? The hydrant was blue and I thought it was a paranoid homeowner who installed a private fire hydrant for his own use. There were no red lines or signs saying no parking. | I think you have taken enough of an ass-whipping from the other respondents, so I’ll only pile on a little bit more. But before answering the question with an actual strategy, let me consider a problem with the question, itself.
You write, “…installed a private Fire Hydrant for his own use.”
If for the owner’s use, one must wonder, how would the homeowner actually use it? Maybe they have a storage shed with some 4″ hose lines and nozzles, nearby. Do ya think? More likely, even if installed by the homeowner, it is for the use of the fire department. Which of course means they have to actually get to the hydrant to use it. Which, of course, your car makes very difficult.
Perhaps as troubling is your evident agenda to escape responsibility for your your action. You come before strangers and ask for a “hack.” And I’ll actually give you one.
Meanwhile, if your parents are hip to your Quora post, they probably don’t experience much solace over a kid who not only doesn’t -or can’t- think, but who also want a pass for failing to do so. Mom and Dad, if you are reading this, you might want to consider the idea that your kid just isn’t ready to be released into the wild. God knows what will happen if he or she encounters a STOP sign that’s not red.
So, here’s your hack: you print out all these replies AND YOUR QUESTION, and take them to court. Show them to the judge, and plead to the court that the responses you have received should be considered as part of your punishment, and that you now realize how very stupid and selfish you really were. Ask for a reduced fine or lesser offense. Maybe you’ll catch a break.
But I hope not.

What are the qualities of a successful leader? | "Great leaders know they aren't the smartest person in the room."
As a leader, you shouldn't strive to be the smartest in the room. On the contrary, you hire the best talent you can find. You don't micromanage them. You see them as assets to move the organization forward and not as a threat to your position. In fact, you actively develop the next generation of leaders. You provide training and resources for them to succeed.
True leaders are confident in their skill set and promote those around them.
You can't be a good leader until you start creating more leaders. Read that again.
And you can't create more leaders until you learn to empower others.You can't help someone who thinks they know it all.
Innovation requires curiosity and an environment of psychological safety.
Curiosity requires accepting that we don't have all the answers.
Creating a culture of psychological safety requires that you allow others the space to "not know" as well as make mistakes in order to learn and grow.

Does Uber charge more for two people riding together? | On a pool ride each passenger pays. On the rest of them they charge one rider buy the platform it rides on . and that platform is based on model car. So a xl can hold six people for the cost of one. Suv. Hold 7. But charge for the ride. Not for the 7. Even if a customer is solo.

Why were they fighting, acquiring and annexing kingdom after kingdom?

Shows how poorly this lady is informed and has made some home work despite being a student of JNU.

Do owners of racing cars (Lamborghini, Audi, Ferrari, Porsche etc) drive them around every day like when going for shopping or when going at work? Do they always have to watch their cars when parked in public to not get scratched/damaged by someone? | I drove a Porsche 944 Turbo for three years as my only car. That includes Toronto winters. Not just commuting to work and taking my son to school, but trips to Home Depot as well. It was a glorious car, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. I put over 100,000 kms on the car. Just look at this… one of the best looking cars ever made:
I also owned an Audi S4. Looks completely innocent, but it was faster than my 944 Turbo and would carry 5 adults comfortably. I drove this car for 12 years, and although I did own a few other cars during the time I owned it (beater Chevy 3500 pickup, BMW 323, Porsche 911 Turbo, Golf Diesel) I put almost 200,000 kms on the Audi:
Yes, I was reasonably careful when I parked, but when you come down to it a car is an appliance, not a piece of art. They are meant to be driven, and drive them I did.

What was your reason for leaving a tremendous tip at a restaurant? | I was working out of state for a year and I like to eat out every Sunday morning for breakfast. So I was going to out to a little ma and pop place every Sunday that specialized in home cooked breakfast, plus it was just across the street from my apartment. There was this young waitress that I saw almost every week that was nice, friendly and helpful. Since I always brought a book to read, she tried to find me a quite corner where I would not be bothered too much. She also made sure I was not forgotten there as sometime happens.
Anyway I was in one morning when she was talking to some friends and family that showed up. It seems it was her last day of work and they wanted to wish her well as she was moving out of state to go to college, from the little I overheard. Not that I was trying to listen in, they were making a somewhat big show of it and it would have been hard to not notice.
While I generally leave her a large tip for what is usually a $10 meal. That time I left her a $20 tip and a congratulation note about her going to college and a thanks for her good service she had provided.

No other nation even compares, perhaps except NAZI Germany another superpower in existence.
Russia refuses to acknowledge the two other major superpowers - Imperialist Japan and China.
Russia-centered world is behind an Iron curtain. USA, UK and rest of the world is not visible, though India seems very friendly, lots of people.
Russians make the best cars. Russians have the best healthcare, best environment.

Russian leaders serve their people selflessly. The infrastructure in Russia is second to none.
Russian universities attract the best students from world over.
Everyone wants to migrate to Russia.
Russian have the finest human rights. They are fair to their elderly, their poor and their women.
Russians are very collaborative. They work well with everyone.
USA, UK, France and Germany are little bugs as compared to the military might of Russia.
Central Asia, Ukraine, Baltic, Balkans, Poland are all treated most fairly by their big brother, Russia.
Russia makes the most optimal use of its immense natural wealth to improve the lives of its people.
Russians spread finest values and knowledge wherever they go.
No Russian wants to leave Russia ever. All parts of Russia are simply paradise. Finest meadows, orchards, cleanest rivers. Beautiful, lush cities with open roads and high living standards.
Russia seeks peace and prosperity for all.
If Russia is not the major superpower, finest of the lot, the supreme leader of the world bar none, I cannot imagine who ever is.
More power to Russia. Let Putin and Prigozhin and K-gremlins live long.
They are the future of the world. Only Russia under Putin can heal and restore the world.
USA doesn’t even compare to a tiny Oblast in Russia.

All that their decision changed about abortion rights was which government agency has jurisdiction. The decision gave that power to each of the states rather than the federal government. It had nothing to do with privacy.
