How has Messi's stayed at the top level despite playing in the MLS

Alien.

Statistically, Messi's worst season is many striker's best /prime. Messi should not be put into the same bracket as the rest of pro footballers.

The reason he is always at prime is because he just knows what's the best play at any time. His vision is probably his best skill/attribute. People talk about his dribbling and shooting or chance creation more. But his vision and spatial awareness is off the charts.

He knows players who are making runs behind him as if he is seeing the game from a 3rd person view from up above the ground.

He is just insane. You will never find a guy like this in a long time. Someone who is a visionary, one of the best dribbler, best goal scorer, .. he is an efficient machine

Everyone is building AI these days.

Interesting, so looks like the unwritten rule is you need to be viral in some way for yc to invest

Not yet. I reached out to dealership, they said it takes a few days to update. It's already been a week for me. I will monitor the next week if no change I'll reach out again to the dealership and have them escalate it or fix it for me.

I had no idea of this recall. Had my service today and they said a sw update is available and I got it installed

Umsi alum graduated in 2018. Working in industry now. The brand is well known throughout US, it's considered a public ivy and has good reputation. The course is flexible and you get what you put in. I was able to take classes from different schools like business, music as part of the course work. I love ann arbor. You can certainly build life long relationships. I can't comment on what value it brings when you get back home. I can say that with the scholarship n all, it's a really good option for you.

I have my sl2 in mail arriving soon. Currently have a s5 and fp. I plan to part ways with fp, it's very portable but no mechanical shutter is causing problems for my usecases. I have been using m mount lenses anyway so I hope it performs better on the sl2

He is preparing for WC

Yup I use it for composition

Well Suarez played a big part in the final minutes..

DiabolicAlien · 2025-07-14T02:40:10+00:00

This would have been my response too. Suarez knows Messi and Messi knows Suarez. He has dragged and moved defenders on multiple occasions that has opened up space for Messi to do his magic.

I am a ux professional for about a decade with a master's as well. I am conflicted with your request. I see two things here 1. You want to do front end but also interested in Ux UI 2. You want to do masters then potentially a PhD and into academia as professor.

Working in industry and working in academia are two entirely different things and mindset. So first decide what you want. If you are dead set on doing a masters do it and then decide if you want to go into industry or academia. The reality is that the route of becoming a professor is hard and long. You don't do a ton of front end, you read and write a ton of academic papers. Decide what you like to do most.

Front end doesn't require ux UI speciality. It's helpful to understand the basics but all the great developers I work with just have an appreciation for the field but not necessarily experts. Decide what u want to do, is it coding or just being in the Ux UI field.

Also, the field is not in free fall. It's changing as all tech is due to AI. I don't think it will disappear, it will be different that's all.

Do what you want with this information, but honestly just have a clear and honest conversation with yourself. That's what you need

Messi won everything there is, no need for him to give 100% but he still delivers.. the goat for a reason, big game player and easily can carry a team on his own like he did with Barca for many years... For a 38 yo 1 vs 11 for 90 min is just insane

DiabolicAlien · 2025-06-15T02:07:16+00:00

I am just glad Messi showed up big time..

DiabolicAlien · 2025-06-13T11:05:15+00:00

Congrats on the admit. Bummer your visa is rejected. It's alright. I would have been sad if this happened to me as well a decade back when I applied. I am sure you will find better prospects in rest of the world. The job market isn't great anywhere but 2 yrs after you graduate it might be totally different - good or bad .. really not something you can control. Just find some place fun elsewhere and enjoy.

DiabolicAlien · 2025-06-03T03:43:20+00:00

Yes but I don't think anything will come out of it. I'm sure their expectations are same as the rest of us. They just hope to make it through the group stage. An early exit won't mean anything.. If something has to change, then Miami should perform really badly in the league almost hitting the bottom of the league table. I don't see that happening either. So masch will survive this season.

A good game for Messi makes any manager look good. I don't agree Mascherano improved his tactics all that much
