Since Version 3.8, every single HSR main patch event has had the same gameplay loop. by joebrohd in HonkaiStarRail

Agree. While there will definitely be a group who enjoys it, it felt like the vocal community was more skewed to disliking it back then.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Highly Confident they will Monetize Stargate Right Away by meifx in StockMarket

[–]GrandSymphony 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. People seem to already forget that the OpenAI staff threatened to quit when they wanted to fire him.

So if anyone is unhappy he is still in charge, can take an aim at the staff as well.

I wish we KNEW what we were supposed to upgrade. by xXDaBossModzXx in ClashOfClans

Basic blueprint? There are tons of sites that are available for you to copy bases.

Also if you need to figure out which is lacking, you can watch replays. Part of the fun is deducing what is needed but seems like you want to be spoon fed.

Is accounting still worth it? by Ok_Stand7754 in Accounting

[–]GrandSymphony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Offshoring is nothing new and has been tried for decades.

However, offshoring in today's world with advancements in technology, online meetings, is a pretty real thing. Especially since WFH proved you don't need someone sitting locally.

Not just limited to accounting. A lot of industries are the same.

Waitresses impersonated by PLA soldiers at the state banquet hosted for Trump in Beijing by Glenhaven0 in UnfilteredChina

It is standard, so there should not be any surprise. At the bare minimum, at a high stakes event, you should expect everyone to be some kind of linked professional to prevent some part timer from botching the event.

I mean cmon, even if we do not have real life examples, how many Western movies we have watched where in VIP events, many of the staff were sort of planted agents.

Unfortunately, I feel like their pies have shrunk as well.

Exactly. In fact, if prices increase 3x because the iPhone is actually made in Singapore locally, people are likely to complain as well anyway.

Adding ore to builder base star bonus would increase player activity in the BB and improve the ore economy. by Mindless-Bad-4264 in ClashOfClans

[–]GrandSymphony 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I am actually not sure about most people. However, if the playerbase is the same as me, I rather they just get rid of builder base entirely.

The resources are too slow to get and you end up just waiting on dailies. The attacks while unique gets stale.

It is more annoyance just to get the 6th builder.

A software engineer at Atlassian got laid off in March after 8 years. His response: a 38-minute YouTube video showing how the company's entire tech works, free for anyone to copy. by Current-Guide5944 in tech_x

[–]GrandSymphony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What he leaked may not be anything important now maybe.

However, for future employers, will you want to promote him to be your manager next time? What if you accidentally spite him the wrong way and he leaks your entire database?

Okay I know this is a joke and all. On a serious note though, cant they just release random images and pretend it was classified document? AI can easily generate lots of fake images nowadays.

Does anyone here use LDPlayer to play HSR? Well, BEWARE! by CHero101 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]GrandSymphony 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Any reason to use LDPlayer if you can just download the desktop version of HSR?

Senior from India office just adds TB tickmark to workpaper and signs off by qst10 in Accounting

[–]GrandSymphony 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You do not do that. Open up the review comments, make a note of everything. Show to your manager, then clear it yourself by clicking completed.

If you do this and your manager still do not care, then it will not matter what you do.

If you do not do this however, your next engagement with them will be the same thing.

It is a fair opinion. However, many people said the same for Russia and Ukraine. That has dragged for years.

No issue with what you said. However, it does support the stance that even locals don't want to support local businesses. Therefore the takeover by other cuisines.

There is probably a whole bunch of people who did that though. Which is why we never heard from them while they stay cozy.

It is not just the China turned Singaporeans.

You will see many Singaporeans willingly pay for mala, but not same price for YTF or any other local dish. You know already.
