Isn't that just a solar panel with extra steps?

Solving percents. I use this to predict gross and net of my paychecks when I do my budget.
Net X
------ = ------
Gross 100
(GrossX) = (Net × 100)
GrossX ÷ (Net × 100) = X
Example;
200 X
------ = -------
250 100
Step A
200 × 100 = 20000
Now 250X = 20000
Step B
20000÷250=80
Therefore X=80
Also expressed as 80% of 250 = 200.
It's also kinda handy when figuring out sales and stuff at the store, sometimes.
The statistical inclusion of fascists in the mention of voluntary military recruits absolutely is reality, having spoken with the family I have who are currently serving, who are seeing and speaking with the new recruits coming in to the armed forces. It's a topic of discussion at family functions. You trying to discredit my point of view by attacking my motivation is a poor but recognized debate tactic. My personal view of the military is not a factor in my original statement anyway. Do try to stay on the point, even of you fail to properly read and understand the statement. I have great respect for the people who serve the country through inclusion in the armed forces, and their willingness to put themselves in the way of harm to provide a better life for the people that are not.
As for your second argument, the word nazi is not some slur I'm using against a group I don't like, it's a very real state of political view that absolutely survives and arguably thrives in many places in the U.S. I may not use the term 'Neo-Nazi' to discriminate between past and present, but that doesn’t lessen the justification for the application of that label to those who espouse the same beliefs as historical Nazism. I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, being loose in my use of the word Nazi. I am refusing to allow apologists to discourage the use of a term that rightfully brings to mind the full impact of the beliefs held by those to whom the term Nazi applies to. I was taught by my grandfather what a Nazi is and why men of character cannot accept such views to become enshrined in the hearts or heads of those around him.
I didn't call a soldier a nazi, I said that Nazis wanted to play soldier and do Nazi shit. The reality is that recruitment is up, and part of that is going to be white fascist leaning boys who want to have a gun and be told to use it.
I have family in every branch of the military, and have heard the stories from them directly of meeting up with far too many of these kinds of people.
I also had family who fought the nazis, we visited his grave this past memorial day at a national cemetery.
I know exactly what I said, and what kind of people are currently in power in the USA.
You mean Nazis who want to do government sanctioned Nazi shit? No surprise there
Turns out Vegemite is destroying gut flora. /s
Friend, your guild idea already exists. It's just called a Union in the current day. Many trades already operate this way, from the Carpenters Union to the Iron Workers Union. There's even a Teamsters Union. The different name doesn't change the work they do. White- collar hand much less representation with collective solidarity, but that can be fixed by starting a Union at your local work place. I won't tell anyone it's easy, but it's worth putting in the work. A great example is the Starbucks unions that have popped up in the last few years. The reason you don't see more unions is because employers are terrified of them, and want to continue to freely exploit the workforce through fear.
While I agree with getting rid of at-will policies, I disagree with one part of your idea. Why would I ever want to indenture myself to 5 years with the same employer? How would unions be handled? How about strikes? What about health insurance benefits?
Frankly, unions already solve alot of the problems with at-will employment, and should be protected by law rather then systemically stripped away.
Check out 'Monster Eater', that's the premise of the MC's story.
Yup. It was designed as a troll to get sword geeks to comment about the inconsistency and then call them out on it.
The saddest part of this was to see that this person is of the age to have been in my school classes, albeit in another country. Madness can strike at any age, it seems.
Back in the same ol' place again. Let's see how we do with the second go 'round.

This is why no one in IT tells their family. Home ends up becoming work.
