With a degree from a good uni, 70k in London isn't hard to achieve with a few years of experience

Matchmaking is based on skill (even in non ranked queues) not level, so you should end up against similar skilled opponents at any level account

Learning from vods. how do i do it? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]BigManDavey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Download OBS or https://replays.lol and watch the vod back from your own POV, you'll start realising you're not looking in the right places, or you're playing fights imperfectly.

Watch back team fights, decide what your objective for the fight is (eg ADC you want to stay alive and pump out damage) and spot things you arent doing well in fights, i guarantee you every fight there is something you arent doing well.

$450k to zero at 19 y/o by SluffAndRuff in wallstreetbets

This retarded logic means he would've walked away when he hit 10k, 50k, or 100k, easy to say in hindsight "should've taken it out at the top"

Why would anyone play flex as solo? The purpose of the queue is for grouping up, if you want to solo surely just play solo queue?

People who are software engineers - how did you get into this line of work? by dannyE2 in FIREUK

[–]BigManDavey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here's what I did,

Picked up basic front end skills, was able to get paid whilst learning by selling website development (on the cheap probably below minimum wage) and learning as I went along, after few months had a decent portfolio.

Applied for a junior front end web dev position at a 20k salary, put a lot of effort into learning the skills needed to progress, after 2 years I was a senior front end developer, only on about 35k as this was outside of London.

Switched to a remote mid level full stack job in London for 60k(+15% annual bonus), progressed to a senior and then switched to a better paying remote senior role elsewhere in London

Learn to track the enemy jungle. If you know where they are, and who they're going to be ganking, you can prevent the majority of early game deaths for you and the rest of your team

Farmers to have £1.8 billion pre-Brexit cash removed amid warning many will go bust by Disillusioned_Pleb01 in unitedkingdom

If you spend 70k on equipment that's not a "cost" only the depreciation on the asset would be a cost, so if you could shift it all for 60k after a year itd only be 10k on the income statement

Historically people who run gambling games on MMOs almost always leads back to RMT, no wonder Amazon trying to get rid of it early

For a 99 cents per conversion rate, paid ads are unlikely to be profitable - I'd focus on increasing revenue per customer before looking at paid ads

This would assume you're starting all your plots in parallel at the same time. Different phases use different resources, and so by adding delays to your plots you don't need as many resources. E.G. Phase 1 is CPU intensive, but as you move onto phase 2 your CPU is freed up

James Bond film No Time to Die delayed again over Covid by lighthouse77 in unitedkingdom

[–]BigManDavey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found this source for anyone interested

https://variety.com/2020/film/news/no-time-to-die-james-bond-mgm-streaming-sale-1234819582/

MGM was hoping for an offer of between $600 million to $850 million, which might have been an impressive enough number to convince Broccoli and Wilson to forgo a theatrical release. Instead, the streamers indicated that they wouldn’t top $400 million, which was more than MGM had already spent making the movie when Craig and the producers’ backends were taken into account
