Copy - pasted the result and got a confirmation of opt-out quite fast. I wonder how many people will go through this.
I can definitely see where someone wouldn't want that though
The scariest one was in Switzerland, called Mürren where there's a 30m horizontal section with a 400m vertical drop with nothing to hold on to other than the steel cable and some metal inserts in the wall, see https://www.sac-cas.ch/processed/sa2020assetsprod/9/0/csm_15... .
Twitter was on fire about it, so I don’t think it was just me.
Besides that, I've worked full time on Linux administration at a large scale and in the last years on cloud architecture. When starting university, my colleagues were all envious of me because I was working on interesting stuff and because I had a steady income, but I don't know if the sacrifice of not having a life during high-school was worth it.
Some advice to my younger self: - enjoy your young, no-care-in-the-world years and experiment as much as possible outside work and jobs; this will come in handy later on because you will end up working with people - try finding a bachelor and master that can deepen your knowledge on the subject; for various reasons I've picked telecom and now I regret not picking CS for my current day-to-day job. I made the right choice by picking a networking master's - if in or near Europe and if you like traveling, search for Erasmus+ exchanges during high-school and university years - there are lots of certifications that can give you insight on the industry you're on. For example, I've only learned about Cisco certifications years after working in the networking field. Why? One constraint was budget and I initially implemented everything using Linux and cheap switches. - don't get hired full-time early (this I'm glad I didn't do), because there will be plenty of time to climb corporate ladders. A few of the university colleagues are now on a higher corporate level than me, but should I care?
TL;DR enjoy your young years and don't sweat it too much by working during university; you're way ahead of everyone else and will easily land a job when the time will come.
Generally speaking, you walk through metal detectors to get on planes, not to enter countries.
I don't believe I've ever walked through a metal detector upon my arrival in a destination country in my life.
It's not all Schengen and no controls out there..
As to why, probably to find hidden contraband or hidden CPUs :).
Yours is a good example of what can be done by keeping it simple and not getting wrapped around the axle with complicated frameworks.
It makes me regret all the time I've spent trying to figure out the absolute best tech stack to use rather than just working on finishing the damn thing.
I have been writing in block letters because my writing is tidier this way and have self-taught myself to do it.
Maybe this way less entitled peoples will have a better chance at making it, a sort of culling of the weak and unwilling.
