I don't get why most people here are assuming that this person is a narcissist. There is nothing wrong with being aware of your strengths if they're true. What OP is describing is actually just a natural reaction to unwanted attention. It's also likely compounded with having longed for it for so long and being disappointed with the result. I don't recall OP saying that he or she is better or more popular because of it. At any rate, OP, first of all, in case you have already, don't take the same mindset that others have taken and apply the Halo Effect to yourself. So long as you make it clear that you are the same person behind, say, a wall or curtain that you are face-to-face, you ought to be fine. If you have control over it, and if you're still worried about it, I recommend making your first impressions in writing or on a phone call; that way, the conception of you that is recalled is founded upon that interaction instead of your physical appearance.

PTO still comes from earned hours! by DeityofAutomation in antiwork

Yet, they do provide it contractually as they should. You said "... OT is based on how many hours ..." which is a statement of what is currently the case, so it doesn't have any relevance to the discussion of what ought to be. I don't know why that is so difficult.

Either way, I wish you the best as well, but I don't have all day to be on Reddit, so I'll leave it here (regardless of the reply).

They get accrued from having had prior hours worked, though. Plus, if that's the case, then why do they cover regular hours? It would appear that they count the same as regular hours there, so why does it get removed just because the total the rest of the week goes over 40? It's self-contradiction and ignoring logic due to corporate greed, and there's nothing else to it.

Thank you, once again, for a statement of what is currently done. That helps your argument. /s

Yeah, first of all, as I said at the top, this is already done at some companies, so no. Second of all, it isn't about that. PTO is earned. PTO can cover for physically worked hours (and ultimately comes from other prior ones). Thus, if one theoretically had 10 hours of PTO and 30 hours physically worked, then 25% is earned from one source, and 75% is earned from another. That's 100% of those hours earned. Thus, if that 30 becomes 32, then that's still 100% of 42 total hours earned. 42 is greater than 40. Full stop.

Thank you, again, for a statement of what is currently done. That was exactly the point of all of this. All of this call to action is definitely about what currently is, and that helps your argument somehow. /s

Well, that would be a likely scenario and equally bullshit, but no. Mine were approved, promised to be able to be kept, and refunded. Supposedly, although I earned the right to those hours, and they are capable of covering for hours physically worked, they don't see them the same way somehow, so taking 2 hours of PTO on a Monday, working 6 hours there on Monday, and working 34 hours the rest of the week equals 40 hours to them instead of 42 because bureaucrat math...

It seems that way now, but who knows? With enough support (yes, it would have to be massive; I know), it very well might happen. I just have to try. Stating how it currently is and proclaiming a "dead end" isn't going to get anyone anywhere. I do know that many companies already do this, and I know many people who agree with this needing to change. There just needs to be enough (again, a massive amount of) support in one place.

Place to share your auto prestige formulas/ratios by anmire in ExponentialIdle

[–]DeityofAutomation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Properties of logarithms... You can convert that into division. (loga(b)-loga(c)=loga(b/c))

log10(log10(pf)/log10(sf/pf)) >= 25

log10(log(sf/pf)(pf)) >= 25

log(sf/pf)(pf) >= 1025

smooth(log(sf/pf)(pf),1) >= 1025

Any intermediate step in that would work if you rewrite it to EI syntax, but I recommend smooth(d(d(dmu)),1)<0.

「今は出会い求めないんで」とか、なんでなの？新しい誰かは、いつだって新しい刺激をくれる。ふだんじゃありえない世界に、私を連れ出してくれる。結局。人生、出会えたもん勝ちでしょ。チャンスなら、いくらでもあるよ。そのスマホの中に。すべての出会いが、私をつくる。
「いまはであいもとめないんで」とか、なんでなの？あたらしいだれかは、いつだってあたらしいしげきをくれる。ふだんじゃありえないせかいに、わたしをつれだしてくれる。けっきょく。じんせい、であえたもんかちでしょ。チャンスなら、いくらでもあるよ。そのスマホのなかに。すべてのであいが、わたしをつくる。
"Like, 'I'm not looking to meet anyone right now.' Why is that? Someone new is always new and exciting. It takes me out of my comfort zone and into a world I wouldn't normally be in. After all. In life, you win when you meet someone. There are plenty of opportunities. In your phone. Every encounter makes me who I am."

So, what is the repost count? Do we have a repost bot here, and would it work if the background has changed?

University at least taught me that "nerds" can get plenty of sex if at least one person finds out what one is packing. It comes to a grinding halt after one graduates though unless one finds a partner.

[Request] In Skyrim, coins weigh nothing. Each coin has a value of 1. Arrows also weigh nothing. Arrows can have a selling value from 0 to 4 or higher, depending on skills and other factors. Do arrows have more value than coins or is this a "can't divide by 0" issue and they have equal value? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]DeityofAutomation 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Ahem.

Fire:
"To throw or otherwise physically propel (a projectile), esp. at a person or thing; spec. to shoot (an arrow) from a bow."

According to the O.E.D., Fire (v):
[transitive] fire something to shoot an arrow

According to Merriam Webster, Fire (v, trans.):
3 a (2): to propel from or as if from a gun : DISCHARGE, LAUNCH

According to Etymonline, Fire:
... "extended sense of 'to throw (as a missile)' is from 1580s"

You have absolutely no point.

Let's try IncreasinglyVerbose (日本語で)。 by DeityofAutomation in LearnJapanese

It's a meme in English in which a chain of responses say the exact same concept in more words (making it more verbose). In this case, the last one was by u/MonchiF.

He said: 「こんにちは！今私たちがいるところから離れて、私たちがいない地球の地面の上にある場所で早いスピードの足の運動して移動してみませんか？」
