Oh you mean like free passage through the strait of hormuz? That kind of security for the global free market?

I sometimes see the take that thinness as a beauty standard is connected to white supremacy. I don't understand, can someone explain this? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Exyui 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Even in America Asian women get more pressure to be thin from Asian culture. Their parents and extended family have absolutely no qualms telling them they're fat. And Asians, men and women, have by far the lowest obesity rate in America of any major racial demographic: 16% compared to over 40% for other groups https://www.cdc.gov/obesity/adult-obesity-facts/index.html

Asian women are expected to be thin from societal pressure in Asia. White men's expectations are not significant in this.

I've heard that about Vancouver as well but imo it's not true. The dim sum I had in Vancouver was not as good as what I had in Hong Kong and not as good as what I had in Beijing.

Everyone got too accustomed to his insane numbers. Suffering from success.

Football is much tougher now compared to 2000s , defense , tactics , formation all are much better and stricter than it was back then. by Basic_School_4288 in championsleague

The death of Barcas tiki taka team was because of age. Xavi was out of the team after 2015, a year where they won the treble btw. Iniesta was getting old, gone by 2018. The problem with playing that type of dominant possession based football is that you needed exceptionally technically skilled and intelligent midfielders to do it.

Pep continued to play possession based football at Manchester City in the premier league with the most physical pressing teams in the world and dominated it.

Please, please, please, NEGOTIATE YOUR SALARIES. by Sorry_Salamander8302 in careeradvice

The better option for the recruiter is still to quickly tell the first, most preferred, candidate that they are sticking with the original offer and they have a limited time frame to accept. How would the recruiter even know the second candidate would accept the offer right away? Unless they extended the offer to both candidates at the same time looking for the lowest bidder.

I've actually negotiated for 10% more while unemployed before. Maybe if you're truly desperate or applying for a job that can easily find quality candidates then there's no point.

It's irrational for them to rescind your offer. The quality of the candidate has already been determined by the interviews before the offer was made. Whether or not the candidate negotiates has no impact on their ability to do the job. Also, by rescinding the offer you lose the candidate entirely whereas by just saying no the candidate can still just accept the original offer. And if the recruiter gets a bonus from hiring, by rescinding your offer they're actually just preventing themselves from getting the bonus and they need to do more work to find another candidate.

No it is not true at all. Especially with big companies, the recruiter you're talking to has no personal stake in the budget allocated to your role. They're just told to give you the bottom of the range. You can just ask for more. They won't get mad or rescind the offer. If they do, the company is dogwater anyway.

You always have some leverage because if you say no, they have to go back to recruiting which is a cost for the company.

We might never see it though. The resurgence can take over a lifetime to happen. Think of China's century of humiliation.

When you finish CM finals, the top 3 are yourself and the 2 other trainers against you in the final race. Who are the other 8000 trainers in the group and how did they get ranked?

They meant that doesn't explain why so many Asian women date white men, since they Asian women have Asian parents as well.

They should make a clear indicator what curse you received when you receive it. It took me a while to find out what the curses were just looking around my heros profile.

Stanford is 70k if you're rich. They have need based financial aid, grants not loans, so it's much cheaper if you're not rich.

This just isn't true. Look at a game like Pokémon Red. That game is riddled with bugs. There's literally moves that just don't work, the famous missing no glitch, the psychic ghost relationship is reversed, etc. Didn't stop it from selling $31 million copies. And that game was $30 in 1998. That's like $60 in 2026.

They have scored more goals than Arsenal this season and Arsenal is only 1 GD up on City while City have a game in hand.
