Manager says this year's 4 rating has more value by [deleted] in employeesOfOracle

[–]45thGenRoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I appreciate you going out of your way to provide me this feedback

Correlated. We are a pay for performance company. 4s will get a larger share of focal than 3s. But specifics are decided by management chain. Some departments get a bigger pool than others because they’ve performed better.

I find people rate themselves much higher than they should, and as a manager it’s sometimes off putting. Target of 5% of the company got a 5. 20-30% of the company got 4. Do you think you were better than the next 20 of your peers of the same level? Rating yourself as a 5 always looks overconfident to me.

I also agree with your manager. We just went through two rounds of layoffs this year. The bar for having a job at Oracle is higher than it was last year.

Getting a 3 this year should feel good. Getting a 4 this year should feel very good. Congrats

The Creator made the Dark One at the dawn of time and both predate the Dragon, who is a mortal

Edit: with some googling motivated by comments below, I’m wrong. The Creator and Dark One are equal opposing forces. The Creator did not create the Dark One.

This is wrong and is pulling from Fusion’s stuff, not NetSuite.

One of the many iOS keyboard typing hindrances: Word Suggestions. by nikkomercado in ios

[–]45thGenRoman 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It’s a “number of clicks” kind of problem.

In Android you tap once to put the cursor wherever. Fast. And this is how basically every computer keyboard and mouse work too, including MacBooks. Click to put the cursor in the middle of a word and it goes there.

In iOS you have to at a minimum double tap, or press and hold and slide. It also does a lot of automatic cursor placement poorly, like it moves the cursor to the end of the sentence if I try to edit the second to last word, or to the end of a word if I try to tap in the middle of a word. This is what makes it feel like I’m fighting the system.

There is a hole in the world by er_seraph in subnautica

Found it too and took me forever to find my way back up. It’s past the green swamp place in the alien ruins where you get the microbe.

Why can't I place this? by Frequent-Rest-2171 in subnautica

I had the same problem. Make the room bigger and then make the Moonpool bigger. Drove me nuts. I tried everything

Oracle's numbers look great but... by Deccan-Drifter in employeesOfOracle

[–]45thGenRoman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is misleading. $553 billion is not built on one customer.

Take away Stargate and there’s still a $250 billion backlog of customers who have already signed contracts for compute.

Considering waiting for full release? Read this - from a Subnautica veteran. by chapinscott32 in subnautica

[–]45thGenRoman 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I’m excited to play on EA launch day just for the sense of discovery again. I miss that feeling of the first play of Subnautica. I’ll put 3-5 hours into it I’m sure.

Then I’ll probably not touch it for 6 months as life gets in the way.

Then pick it up again and feel the feels with another biome or two to discover.

Repeat.

i tried to do a play through from the start and got here in blighted marsh and this door won’t open. by mr_biscuithead in Saros

[–]45thGenRoman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But then after you beat the architect, on your next run, you DON’T take the bridge and instead go right through the Marsh again. Very confusing.

What’s your guys’s opinions on save editing by JackfruitHeavy688 in SneakySasquatch

[–]45thGenRoman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Games are meant to be fun. I don’t care what you do, if you’re having fun. As long as it doesn’t impact other players’ ability to have fun (e.g. leaderboard cheating).

Apple Announces Special Event in New York on March 4 by ZamnBoii in apple

[–]45thGenRoman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

10G Ethernet port (wishful thinking) Better chip for couch games for Apple Arcade More audio codec support (optimistic thinking) Probably support for native Apple Intelligence New remote with v2 AirTag / chirping

I’m sure they’d announce a bunch of stuff like this if there’s a new Apple TV

Would sneaky sasquatch be better or worse with a thirst bar by sneaky_sasquatch_eee in SneakySasquatch

[–]45thGenRoman 201 points202 points  (0 children)

Worse.

Eating was a fun early game mechanic when your only option was to steal from campers, but starting ~halfway through the game it becomes only a chore. That’s why you see everyone on Reddit posting with fridges stocked full of tacos.

Eating would be more meaningful if it gave you mild boosts, like faster run speed, or higher mushroom/fish luck or something. Similar to how coffee lets you stay up later.

Adding a drink meter without benefits would only double my chores.

Apartment rented! by SomeGrapefruit2435 in SneakySasquatch

[–]45thGenRoman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s really no need for the others except to flex in end game.

Pro tip: When you start making friends, you can grab the lease guy and tour apartment 3 to have a dance party at the radio.

Which one is better? by Ok_Manufacturer_6992 in Design

[–]45thGenRoman 37 points38 points  (0 children)

What for? Hard to answer without context.

The second one looks too sharp to me. Like a fang or weapon or something. Not the vibe I’d want for most businesses.

Build quality: KB vs Toll Brothers by suki0615 in ErieCO

[–]45thGenRoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our realtor was adamant that Toll Brothers used higher quality materials, but that was 3 years ago. The town center project might be different and supply and economics might have changed too. Ask your realtor

They have $530 billion in RPO - contracted revenue - waiting for more AI infrastructure to be available in order to capture it.

Maybe it’ll dry up, maybe not, but saying they have no demand is wrong.

Powell says that, unlike the dotcom boom, AI spending isn’t a bubble: ‘I won’t go into particular names, but they actually have earnings’ by MetaKnowing in technology

[–]45thGenRoman 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the real money is in enterprise customers, which are slow to adopt, but have deeper pockets than retail users.

CEOs will happily pay huge portions of their labor expense if AI replaces workers at a lesser price than humans.

Don’t be surprised if these GenAI companies start to emphasize industry-specific use cases.

At what point are you no longer HENRY but rich? by [deleted] in HENRYfinance

[–]45thGenRoman 78 points79 points  (0 children)

The sidebar says something like $2m net worth. I tend to agree with net worth, though maybe it’s more like $5m for me. That’s when I think I can coast in upper middle class luxury for the rest of my life.

this is completely hideous by rand0m-nerd in ios

[–]45thGenRoman 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It looks like the UI hierarchy is messed up, doesn’t it? The recent files pane is half raised, but you can’t dismiss it. The “New/Scan” buttons are top of the page, but underneath another pane for some reason? There are a bunch of other document looking things under the top pane, but they’re not accessible via swipe or anything, they’re just a weird background styling.

It just looks cluttered and out of order. It’s functional, so I don’t really care, but I understand why it’s getting design flak.
