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 ov…

I have had a similar experience.

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 articl…

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…

I believe Jeff Bezos has more power than AOC.

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 …

My good friend got a math degree and works retail.

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 har…

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 whit…

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 …

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…

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 go…

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 whitebo…

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 on…

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 yo…

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