I got my vaccine while in the weird period after getting a new job where you don't have your health insurance info yet.

I paid $200 for it.

I'd do it again - got covid a few weeks ago and it was pretty light, likely a result of the vaccine - but damn, that's a hard ask for a huge portion of the population.

Yup. My boss is an engineer by training and I would not take his job, even if it got me the extra $50k per year he makes

Hell, even project managers who used to be engineers have trouble figuring out what they need. The reason engineers/general technical folk are valuable is because their job is to pick through the guesswork laid by management and formulate an actual working thing, regardless of whether it's a physical object or a button on a website.

Current language learning model AI has no chance if you can't actually formulate what you really need.

I can make AI write code for me, but actually knowing what I need it to write is more than half the battle

As I understand it, one Lehi leader (Yitzhak Shamir) went on to become Israel's PM for two terms. He also approved the assassination of Folke Bernadotte, a Swedish diplomat working to negotiate peace in the region.

It's clear they had influence in post-WW2 Israel.
