As someone who has played a few hundred hours of the base civ6 game, I agree with the combat needing to be improved. The biggest flaw imo, is the AI makes terrible decisions. To overcome this, the harder difficulties give the AI a huge reso

The article you link did not mention the employees saying running the editorial made them "feel unsafe". Neither the word safe nor unsafe appears in the article. It says the article "reportedly elicited strong objections&quot

Silence is not the opposite of violence. Peace is the opposite of violence. I interpret the quote "silence is violence" to mean by not speaking out against violence, you implicitly support or contribute to it. People may disagree

Coming from the east coast US, I didn't find the people snooty. They seemed friendlier than where I am from, I made way more friends here than I did back home. Back home you would get arrested for drinking beer in public, in sf you can

Agreed. Facing layoffs at my current employer, have found it tough to land a new job. There is no "skills shortage", just a desire for cheap labor.

Simple problem to solve. Give them their 1000€ a month daily at 33€ a day. If they blow it all, they are hungry that day but eat the next. With a debit card it shouldn't be too hard.

I interviewed with one of the companies on that list a few years back (noredink). They gave a timed hackerrank style coding question as round one (so I guess technically not a whiteboard). I passed that, then I had an interview with an actu

Maybe I am just extremely dumb, but the "hard" questions are actually very hard for me. The medium questions sure.

I got a letter from my representative "thanks for allowing me to represent you...". Along with the letter came a package of seeds.

As has been pointed out here, the shortage is because of the AMA, not because of the visa situation.

The problem is there isn't always 2 sides to a story. Sometimes there is one, sometimes there are multiple. If one side says it is raining, one side says it is not, the journalist should stick their hand out the window, not report the

Software engineers don't rally to defend their coworker pedophiles. There is no thin binary line.

Another way to look at this... not every natzi personally committed crimes. I would suspect that far less than 50% personally murdered anyone. But they were part of an organization that murdered millions, and did nothing to stop it. That ma

I have tried virtually every ssri. They all make me extremely tired, too tired to function. But still would encourage people with anxiety to try them as there are very few other good options.

If you say water freezes a 0 degrees celcius and I say it freezes at 100 degrees, that doesn't mean it freezes at 50 degrees.

As someone with bad anxiety and who gets panic attacks in roughly one third of panels, it does feel fairly discriminatory. The best interview I had was when they asked me a whiteboarding question, gave me a pencil and paper, and left the ro

I have seen so many videos of cops beating up a person and then charging that person with assault. These statistics are meaningless.

You make a good point. I should have clarified that college in the US is scammy. In other countries with reasonable tuition it is quite a good deal.

Going to university requires more privilege than learning from a book.

College is a huge scam imo. Paying thousands of dollars for a class on calculus that has 100 plus people in it is robbery. You can easily get that knowledge online for free. The only reason to go is for the piece of paper.

I don't believe you are asking in good faith. I am not going to engage with you on this. I am just responding so that other people actually watch the video rather than listen to your spin on it.

There have been several posts in the thread advocating violence. Is that allowed here?

Just watched the first video. "protester stepped into the horse's way without looking in that direction, nobody's fault". This is clearly not true.

What nonsense is this? Falsely accusing someone of being a white supremacist does not turn them into a white supremacist.

I bet they do. "Home Office Associate" means office worker or manager. A programmer falls under this. It isn't a minimum wage "store associate". Of course they won't refer to themselves as store associate when

Not me, I like both modes. Often I will have one text editor in dark mode and another in light mode.
