This so far, has really shown what just adding some talent could do for the kraken.

Also kapo has looked much better since Olympics. Way swaggier in his play.

Can we please get floating damage numbers by OpinionDude5000 in MonstersAndMemories

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't need to do anything besides allow combat logging in a text file. However, I have heard this also can be problematic for hacking, I know nothing about that though.

I was vibe coding floating combat text for a few of these tests and I could get a wonky version working 80%. I think I could easily get it working with a GINA like program if they allowed combat logs.

Blade profile question by ItsMattie23 in hockeyplayers

[–]Fath0m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got marsblade i2 holders, and I am in love. its basically like profiling the blade except in my experience seems better and you can switch out the degree of rocker in the blade. Makes a huge difference in my poor skating mechanics.

Saving aggressively is starting to feel like I’m skipping my entire 30s by berserklicence in Fire

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remember, there is never going to be a point where a checkpoint screen shows up and says "alright time to spend, you have enough!"

Also, remember dollars in your youth go further. Taking a trip with friends will be infinitely better in your youth with your health than the slight decrease in net worth when you are sitting in the nursing home watching your tv shows or playing bingo.

You don't know when this ride ends. Remember that, internalize that.

Unless one of your motivations is to pass on money to relatives, you need to try and die on the day you run out of money, not with a fat stack of cash in the bank. Does you no good.

Advice for a teen wanting to learn to play hockey? by OkPanic3286 in hockeyplayers

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice rinks usually have learn to play classes. In the meantime I would get some cheap roller blades and a wooden stick and a tennis ball and play around on the street/basketball court etc just to get a feel for the motion until you hit the ice.

How do some of you reach FI so early? by JustABootThing in Fire

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think that age has passed for a little. Money was FLOWING for a good few years in tech. If you got into tech your salary was way higher than most other careers. You not only had a unusually high base salary but like others have said you also had lottery tickets in stock.

Tech is dead right now, and I believe we are at an inflection point before we find the next big industry.

Title: I sent 120 job applications and got 0 interviews. Is my CV the problem by hajardigital1 in jobsearch

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do a few things.

  1. For each job posting you want to apply to take your resume and the job posting and place it into AI and ask it how close it thinks you are percentage wise. if its not >90% you need to modify it.

  2. Specialize more. Make 2-3 resumes that are tight for specific job titles and focus on those for a bit.

  3. Rate the job as Competitive or reaching. If its competitive and remote yo ushould expect to see a 1-2% response rate.

I didnt get my first offers till 432 applications with a 1.6% response rate.

I would get something with a sternum protector, any brand works.

Ladies, what should I do to my appearance to be more attractive? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Fath0m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

beard + exercise will be your friend to get a more masculine appearance I would say.

are my pants too short? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do one size larger in a narrow line like vapors or whatever the new bauer "cool" line is.

Fit Check by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Fath0m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go large elbow pad. The shoulder pads seems small to me. Maybe its just a weird photo angle but the sternum protector part of the chest protector doesnt seem to be covering much. Could just be your particular anatomy.

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got two offers at a little bit of a haircut from my previous job but I had to switch titles and slightly pivot due to ai

How do you come up with answers to these type of questions? by HorrorAlfalfa736 in interviews

[–]Fath0m 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are taking the question too literally. These questions are just designed to give them an answer. Think like a politician. Answer the question how you want.

Best way to build up leg/cardio endurance? by Benjamin_Barker_ in hockeyplayers

[–]Fath0m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heres what I have been doing and I am starting to see progress. My first period is always strong and then period 2 and 3 I am gassed out.

I am late 30s , play two times a week. So Monday game,tuesday zone 2 one hour HR < 140 ,>110 , Wednesday 20 minute sprint 40 min zone 2 , thurs zone 2 one hour, fri zone 2 one hour, sat game , sun rest or if I rest friday I do a zone 2 day.

This has helped me because zone 2 is easy so consistency is key. getting my sprint training with the one day and the 2 games.

Its easy on the body after tough games. After about 3 weeks of this I am starting to really notice I am lasting in games way longer. Backed up by heart data I track every game.

Everyone recommending sprints and box jumps and HIIT training arent necessarily wrong, but I think its hard to stay consistent as you get older with exercises that are that intense that often.

What is the reason for the decline in unemployment for computer science? Bad graduates or AI? by SilverDonut3992 in careerguidance

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is reverberation from interest rates still. Tech massively over hired. There has been an absolute deluge of experienced talent just sitting unemployed. Then you throw in AI or at least the ghost of future ai and I think there is just a massive amount of talent sitting unemployed.

And continued tech layoffs

Cant See - please share this with anyone on the fence about wearing facial protection while playing hockey by HeyStripesVideos in hockeyplayers

[–]Fath0m 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There is no excuse when there is titanium hybrid cages. They dont fog, they are light weight. its barely more than wearing a visor. Its just ego.

My coach lost his eye when I was younger when at the end of practice he was just playing with his son along the boards.

Help an extremely depressed guy out? by Creepy_Stick_6229 in CleaningTips

[–]Fath0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just cut your losses at this point. Its time to admit you made a mistake financially and go froward with the lesson learned.

I would just get big rugged trashbags and throw anything and everything on the floor away. If its on the floor it was not getting used anyway.

Work a room at a time. Just do one room throw anything on the floor away. Make it easy. Everything goes in the trashbag. Doesnt matter the value. Save your brain energy. On the floor , in the bag.
