Shadow Likely is aware of your claim to have read the entire
"nun"-fiction contents of three libraries.

I have read thousands of books. Was my main indoor hobby
before medicine took up all my time. Most books in a library are very boring and practically useless. I'd never attempt to read them all.
I have also forgotten what I read in thousands of books :)
I write in Portuguese/English.

I had the understanding that Shadow was Argentinian. Even you, as stupid as you are know that the national language of Brazil is Portuguese. And strange that Shadow spoke of readubg thousands of books which would have been several libraries and you weren'
t smart enough to notice that.

Oh, I did not it, and it isn't uncommon for a medical professional to
have read thousands of books over their career.

But this explains things a bit, Tommy has only visited very very tiny libraries. Lets check how many books the San Leandro library has....

https://librarytechnology.org/library/1751
"The collection of the library contains 315,651 volumes."

My city smaller city?
https://librarytechnology.org/library/3594
"The collection of the library contains 160,965 volumes."

No, tommy, a few thousand books are not a library, that's a small
collection.

Let me guess, you're definition of "library" is the stack of magazines
on the back of your toilet, right?

You don't know a thing that you're talking about, as usual. That is a total number of books in the San Leandro main and all of its susidiary libraries meaning that there are duplicates at each library.

Also, in the last 75 years a gret many books have been published. Once upon a time they did not write books about DNA from the bones of thouands-of-years dead Dire Wolves and using dogs as serogets to bring back a species that was killed off by homo
sapians to pretect themselves. They didn't write books about the philosophy of the Nepolianic wars. You want to pretend that books like that have always been around and that they bore some value in my teens. Little dwarves like you should learn to read
so that you know something about it. This is clearly why noone at your company expects you to work and you make no effort to.

You must have very small libraries in America.
Most used-book stores here have over 1000 titles....

Exsactly how do you suppose I became a self taught engineer? By reading a thousand books? Most books are fiction, but tens of thousands are non-fiction. I asked you your profession beforfe and you didn't answer, now you imply without saying that you are
an MD. Or are you a nurse?

Which doesn't mean he was teaching literacy, as you wrote.

Poor l.ittle dwarf has nothing to say so picks on spelling errors. Gee, don't you have something to do at that really important job?

A doctor, not a nurse. 8 years University (6 to be a GP, 2
post-grad for Infectology).
Worked > 10 years in emergency medicine, not because it pays
well, but because it's probably the most interesting area. Also worked
for ages as a family doctor, and a couple of years as a psychiatrist (covering for a colleague with family problems). Psychiatry is boring.
Spent most of my shifts at the crazy place studying real medicine or programming.
38 years registered as an employee. Lots of years I was not
registered. Bosses pocketed my social security. That's common in
Brazil.

How long are you going to take to forget that?
PS Brazil = Portuguese. President is Lula, not that madman
Millei. That's Argentina.

Thanks for that information. I designed and programmed many medical instruments and that gave me a respect for doctors which the recent pandemic reversed for doctors here. Did Brazil forbid the use of Ivermectin against Covid-19, as they did here? There
were several medication that were forbidden here because in order to give emergency ahthorization to develope vaccines without all of the strings attached, there cannot be any effective present treatments.

You were not an engineer.

You are a liar. I still have business cards issued to me by large companies assigning me the title of EE and/or Senior Software Engineer. You are the one that was not an engineer. Like Liebermann, a degree does not make you a real engineer. You could not
engineer in the real world and so fell back to the fake world of teaching where you assign work from textbooks written by someone else. It must be very painful for you not to be able to affordc a real road bike.
