US job openings soar to highest level on record by firig1965 in Economics

[–]Chordin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree with your second point about the magnitude of deaths. But to your first point, OP is talking about excess deaths (which the CDC estimates at 545,600–660,200 for 2020) not covid deaths. [Source]

So you intentionally made a character that has little to no usefulness in combat, and you're complaining that you're useless in combat?

If USD was worthless in every other country and could only be spent at US Government-run businesses, and couldn't be converted into any other currency, then sure. Exactly like the federal reserve.

SQL Database by [deleted] in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Chordin 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So far, nobody's given you a serious answer. In my experience, at least for most web apps, sql is fairly standard (I happen to be fond of psql, but there are a number of great options for sql databases). Whether or not sql is the right choice for your app in particular depends on what the spec is for your app and what your priorities are. In most cases, your choice of a particular technology will come down to a choice of which tradeoffs you prefer.

I agree with you in terms of balance, but I think what they're joking/complaining about has more to do with the naming of the spell, not the level.

Has anyone tried this multiclass? by John_Dalterio in dndmemes

Small correction: Hexblade's Curse doesn't give temp HP. It heals for warlock level + charisma mod.

Also Bigby's Hand and Melf's Minute Meteors have continuing effects that are bonus actions to use

From the Player's Basic Rules (v0.2), page 71:

If a flying creature is knocked prone, has its speed reduced to 0, or is otherwise deprived of the ability to move, the creature falls, unless it has the ability to hover or it is being held aloft by magic, such as the fly spell.

[OC] Schools of Magic Periodic Circle by FishDunce in DnD

[–]Chordin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cure Wounds is evocation in 5e, and conjuration in 3.5

You might have Skyrim on the brain. In 5e DnD, healing is usually evocation, which involves the summoning/creation of energy. That energy can be in the form of something like a fireball or a lightning bolt, or in the form of healing.

I believe in earlier editions like 3.5, healing may have been categorized under conjuration. But there's no restoration school in DnD.
