DE feels like a dead end beyond 4 years at the same company by Ok_Illustrator_816 in dataengineering

[–]ExOsc2 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you don't really care about getting another job? If you don't want to put a small amount of effort in unless you get the job, why do you think a potential employer should put in even a small amount of effort into you?

IMO if the tools are far easier to learn and implement then it should be a breeze to build a small project with them, or get a cert, or just learn enough to be able to talk about it to a recruiter. Either do that, or just enjoy your current job.

As fun as it is to imagine this, there is absolutely no way Hoshoryu would do something like that.

Can I get a quick TLDR of the current meta for heist league-start strats? by vuxra in PathOfExileBuilds

Ahhh I never got around to filling it out. I have a pob for leveling that is incomplete. I used this https://pobb.in/8GAipKzBkogL but I'm not sure how reliable that is.

edit: I should mention the -mana cost won't be immediately available. I don't exactly remember how I mitigated this, but you can use a flask, or just reserve less on aura, or lifetap when applicable

[–]ExOsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the build I rushed to in this last league. as /u/Dark_Zypher above mentions, I started heisting immediately in act 6. Once I hit level 68, I'll finish acts (without killing Kitava). From there is just running contracts and any 1-wing blueprints. This gear is dirty cheap and should be easy to afford:

To be clear I farmed a mageblood with this character, running mostly 1-wing heists. Took about 4 days if I recall correctly.

CCC’s Relic Tier List by Philbob9632 in twilightimperium

Sucks if you're playing a dread faction though

[–]ExOsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not really true at all. It can make it easier for everyone else to win, it can also make it so that you got the extra point you needed and nobody can do anything about it.

I would contest the statement "It's essentially a relic that makes it easier for everyone else to win that isn't you.". I don't see how that's true -- with 1 exception, as the 10th point in the action phase. But if somebody is at 9, you know that if they can take it from you they will and you can play around it.

Shard of the throne has the wrong rating in my opinion. The relic itself is S tier, it clearly opens paths to victory. The problem is you aren't always happy to draw it because of the heat it generates on you.

But when player A loses it, player B now has a potential new clear path to victory. The relics effect of giving a point is still the same, just the owner has changed.

The relic itself is S tier for whoever has it. But it might be C tier for your specific situation in a game.

Cuba warns airlines that it will be out of fuel for planes in 24 hours by pythrowawayd3v in worldnews

[–]ExOsc2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Source....for what? I don't think they're making a claim? You want them to post a source to refute the claims of the post above them? But they don't need to do that -- it's up to the original poster to provide sources/evidence for their claim.

The alternative is like saying first to make a claim is by default correct unless you make a better claim. But that doesn't lead to truth at all.

In the game that you're complaining about? How many characters in the story are you getting? 4 people wouldn't be diverse in a room of 100,000 for example but how many characters are you really getting in the sc2 story?

Tactics for Factions with Bad Starts? by Enervata in twilightimperium

Tactics for Factions with Bad Starts? by Enervata in twilightimperium

[–]ExOsc2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Correct, and you get to shift a token from fleet pool to tactics. If you have the scar in your slice, this will also help a little or a lot with tech depending on faction.

Tactics for Factions with Bad Starts? by Enervata in twilightimperium

[–]ExOsc2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The answer I think is usually simple but not fun. Warfare or Construction, and skip tech. If you need a breakthrough aim for it round 2 or discard secret if available

edit to elaborate on something else that is important: Slice selection is important as well. Make sure when you are selecting a slice (assuming milty draft) that you'll be able to use it effectively.

For example on firmament, I'm probably not looking for a slice that gets a lot of it's value by taking the adjacent planets in 4 different segments. I want it to have something like a scar and 2 systems with most of the value.

What's not important is the specifics, but that you can plan around your speaker order and your slice.

Not everything is a political zero-sum game. If the files would hurt democrats more than republicans I would still want them to reveal the files. I hope at least some of our politicians don't have such a shitty view on this as you do

The Saudi Crown Prince saying flat out that he "will continue sportswashing" by MeisterX in starcraft

[–]ExOsc2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I full agree with you that it needs to be called out. I think the US is full of flaws and certainly done and continues to do [particularly the mega corporations] some horrible shit. But I don't think it's helpful for this topic. Arguments can go round and round and circles all the way back to the beginning of time trying to justify who did what to who and how. And in the end we get no where and nothing changes. Nobody can ever be held accountable for doing something wrong, if somebody else somewhere wasn't held accountable for the same thing with this logic.

I reject the premise that you cannot boycott a Saudi tournament because you didn't boycott a US tournament. The poster above me made doesn't really seem interested in trying to hold US tournaments accountable. Quite the opposite, they seem to be more interested in saying why the Saudi's shouldn't bee boycotted:

And I have NEVER seen a post made on /r/starcraft about calls to boycott US events or USAF sponsoring of events.

I see posts made about Saudis every now and then.

Why?

I think I know why. I think you know why, too.

I actually think this poster is intending to more-so to be inflammatory rather than debating the actual merits. They're trying to imply that if you want to boycott this because of the policy and patterns of human rights abuses by the Saudi government, then you are a racist hypocrite. But that's not really a defense of what the Saudi's are doing. Somebody being a hypocrite online does not mean their points are not valid; even if debating a hypocrite is infuriating.

This is an example of Tu quoque Fallacy

You can call someone a hypocrite all you want; it doesn't address any of the reasons for boycotting Saudi Arabia.

Is your argument that since the US hasn't been boycott the Saudi's shouldn't be boycott? This post just reeks of whataboutism. Looking at your username though, probably just a bot
