10 months agoThis - wanted to add that it’s generally not a good idea to have radioactive elements not under under lock and key as they have a nasty habit of ending up in scrap yards and the like. Most nuclear accidents are from radiotherapy and x-ray machine sources not getting disposed of correctly and getting picked up by enterprising scrappers due to the high lead content of their housing.
Feeling this for the last year or so. Graduated into a recession completely broke and unable to get a dev job, ended up doing admin with a side of dev work (as they found out I was “technically minded” - obviously without any extra pay) for the last 8 years to make ends meet. Quit my job in November of last year to do a coding bootcamp to update my knowledge and try again - learnt more in 4 months then I did in 3 years at university. Graduated into another recession and historic tech sector layoffs. Feels bad.
