Are you making the claim that every wrongful termination ends in lawsuits and bad press?

Dubious.

You're making the assumption that although you're being harassed the best outcome for you and the company are aligned. This is definitely not always the case, if you are being harassed and it happens to be in the best interest for the company to get rid of you, for whatever reason, guess what happens next?

Yes of course and Euclid's parallel postulate is a matter of fact in your opinion too?

We use abstractions friend, some are useful often and others are not often used.

Respectfully, it is my opinion that arresting anyone who says something, in real life, on a blog or whispering to themselves, that is not a direct threat or inciting physical violence is wrong.

Thanks for the resources Jon, although unfortunately I am in the UK. I will however investigate if there is something similar over here.

If anyone else has information pertaining to how to begin working on small projects that would be great. Even just a list from the top of your head of things to learn in some chronological order.

from the ask-hn dept.

Hi,FYI: Second year maths degree, work in Python and SQL, entry level knowledge of C and CPP.I was inspired by the fluid movement displayed in the litter picker sort of arm one of the Boston Dynamic robots has and I would like to learn how to go about creating such a robot as a side project (just the arm). I want to know what resources I should look at to get started? I have no real experience...
