Very big stretch between “dancer in a cult is in a Toyota ad” to “Toyota may have gotten involved with a cult.”

Hot take. Nothing. All controls that aren’t directly related to driving should be on touch screen and locked when in motion. You should set your AC, radio, naivgation, etc before you start moving. You shouldn’t be making phone calls or fiddling with anything when driving.

Internships are the key (and I think that’s not just applicable to engineers or automotive OEMs, but anyone and any company). I was able to get a job as an engineer at a major automotive manufacturer by getting experience through internships/co-op programs. If you can’t get one in the company you want, branch out to…

Or, the species ages differently, and doesn't have a linear correlation with human aging...

Coming from industry, you are sorely lacking knowledge of vehicle emissions technologies. EGR is far from a pipe, and you would hardly burn it for any reason whatsoever. It’s essentially a valve.

This is what I don’t get. You have 8 personal email accounts? 70% of your 300-400 emails are from facebook, twitter, etc? That just sounds like unnecessary work you are heaping on yourself.

I can definitely understand if it’s part of your job that you communicate through email to that many people in a day. Especially as you climb the ladder and have more people underneath you.

I just never understood the issue with getting to inbox 0. Who are you people who get 100s of emails a day and have 1000s of unread messages? How is your job/life so crazy that you can’t read all your messages? Do you just let physical mail pile up without opening it or throwing it away? Do you never have time to…
