First Hand Account Of A Lynching In Texas, 1916
February 19, 2020 | No Comments » | Topics: Morbid |
In Waco Texas, 1916, 10,000 people watched the lynching of Jesse Washington (castrated, burned, and mutilated for 2+ hours) A photographer sold postcards of the event. Prominent citizens eventually persuaded photographer to stop selling them fearing the images would come to characterize the town. Here is a first hand account of that lynching:
“A big fellow in the back of the court room yelled, ‘Get the Nigger!’ Barney Goldberg, one of the deputy sheriffs, told me that he did not know that Fleming had dropped orders to let them get the Negro, and pulled his revolver. Afterwards he got his friends to swear to an affidavit that he was not present. Fleming said he had sworn in fifty deputies. I asked him where they were. He asked, ‘Would you want to protect the nigger?’ The judge made no effort to stop the mob, although he had firearms in his desk.”

What’s It Like To Work At Google?
February 19, 2020 | No Comments » | Topics: Life Experiences |
I have never worked anywhere apart from Google, so I cannot draw a comparison but here is what I think.
Pros :
- I get to work with a set of people who always make me feel shit about myself and make me realize that I know very little. When I joined Google, I suffered from Imposter’s syndrome. I am always out of my comfort zone here. I always know how I can improve. It helps me grow and learn faster.

Brain Teaser Of The Day

There is a lightbulb inside a closet. The door is closed, and you cannot see if the light is on or off through the door. However, you know the light is off to start. Outside of the closet, there are three light switches. One of the switches controls the lightbulb in the closet. You can flip the switches however you want, but once you open the door, you can no longer touch the switches.
How do you figure out without a doubt which switch controls the light?

The Most Sinister Boxing Match Of All Time
Undefeated Billy Collins Jr. (14-0, 11 KO) was a junior middleweight (154 lb.) prospect on his way up. Luis Resto (20-8-2, 8 KO) was a light-punching journeyman.
Resto beat Collins’ eyes shut and his skin purple and blue. Collins suffered a torn iris and his vision was forever blurred. Collins could no longer fight. Collins’ father and trainer Collins Sr. went up to shake Resto’s hand out of sportsmanship, only to be overcome with rage at how thin Resto’s glove was. He demanded the gloves be impounded. Resto’s padding had been removed, and Resto himself admitted years later that his handwraps had been soaked in plaster of Paris, a substance that hardens into plaster casts.
Collins began drinking and became violent without boxing in his life. He would later drive his car into a cement wall in 1984, ending his life at age 22. Resto and his trainer, Panama Lewis, were banned for life from the sport. Resto served 2 1/2 years in prison for assault, while boxing suffered a tragedy that shows just how dangerous cheating can be in this sport.

So my son was being bullied pretty badly at school. People would make fun of his accent, use racial slurs towards him, throw open milk cartons at him at lunch, start rumors about him, they put his book bag in the toilet once, and a bunch of fucked shit kids do to each other.
My son had told on the main perpetrator to me and his mother and I went to the school and told them about my concerns and the school gave him a stern talking to which only stopped him for a few weeks and then he continued to bully my son.

Shure SE846-CL Sound Isolating Earphones
"These are the greatest headphones I have ever listened to in my entire life, Hands down, no close second." This is a completely different listening experience to anything that I’ve heard before. The dynamics are insane, the isolation, as far as these eartips, the ones that were pre-installed. They just shut off the rest of the world beyond even what active noise cancellation can do so you can really appreciate every little nuance in the music
