So yes, they are old and are being phased out in favor of the superior in nearly every way technology of mirrorless.
As a junior, you gotta lower your standards and get into the field. This isn’t like 10 or even 5 years ago. Junior developers are abundant. Boot camps are pumping out “qualified” (I don’t mean this to be rude, but many boot camps are not qualifying people to do real enterprise work. There is a gap, you have to find a company willing to bridge that.) candidates en masse. Do something that sets you apart. Make contacts.
> Did not America threaten to use nuclear warheads in Afghanistan? It literally went into Iraq after the made-up threat of nuclear weapons in Iraq.
No, America never threatened to nuke Afghanistan.
Also, I never said America doesn’t have the capability. But one country is using it as their lifeline to make sure they aren’t ripped apart by the rest of the world and one doesn’t even bring it up. Be anti-American or whatever all you want, but what’s the point in lying on the internet where information is so easy to simply Google?
What I think you don’t realize is that most normal Americans aren’t interested in providing military protection to countries that don’t want it. I’d suspect whatever country you’re in realizes that, and is willing to accept whatever pressure from the Americans in exchange for the support of the world’s largest military.
People have always been anti-war. War is rarely a universally accepted option, even if it seems like it is.
If you’re saying there isn’t anything different about the Ukrainian war, I’d assert you’re wrong. Russia, and more specifically Putin, has proven they are willing to be an existential threat to humanity via their nuclear weapons. The US waged a war in Iraq, and despite anyone’s opinions, right or wrong, they never once even hinted at the use of tactical nuclear warfare. Russia is the only country that does this and actually had the capabilities.
Because of this, the threat is far different than wars fought this past century. Russia is one of a handful of counties that possess this power. I don’t think it’s “one-sided bias” to accept this truth and understand the meaning of it in a larger context.
Amazon as a logistics company is also a joke. Their customer service is now bottom of the barrel, which is a real shame because it used to be decent. As a paying Prime customer, my items are late or lost probably 1/3 of the time.
Once a real competitor comes around that can compete on price and some level of good selection without being a horrendous experience, Amazon will be put on notice.
