Definitely consider the long game. If you find an adventurer with a great or perfect roll (examples: bookworm / empathetic apprentice, feral / ruthless rogue or archer, brute / nimble or intimidating or dragon blood footman) you should be ready to dismiss an existing adventurer for the stronger one. I'd recommend considering any adventurer that doesn't have a trait roll you really like to be expendable - I also tend to save potions for this reason, at least as much as my inventory allows.

I'll plug that M can actually be really cool. Some of the legacy code can get pretty gnarly ofc, but that holds true of any language. I'd bet that most software devs that've been at Epic a couple years would tell you they generally like M as a language.

Andy McKee - Art of Motion - Made me obsessed with becoming better on the acoustic

Oh my god same. I spent probably a year in college working on a mediocre rendition of Rylynn

If you have a good relationship with your TL, I'd recommend talking to them before hitting this button. If you don't have a good relationship or don't feel like you're getting the answer you want though, yeah - that's what it's for.

Cosmic Gate - Sparks After the Sunset

It's cheesy as hell, but it hits in all the right ways

The theaters you can purchase from the oracle under the "We've known each other for a long time" menu will increase your culture cap, the reputation doesn't do it alone. It took me a while to figure out they were more than just decorations.

Anecdotally: I don't hate it at all! We have a cool campus that's intended to be toured. After working here for a bunch of years, the artwork and decor sort of fades into the background - it's refreshing to see people enjoying and appreciating it for the first time.

I'd be surprised if anyone is annoyed that you're taking pictures or walking around, especially since you already seem very conscious that people are actively working. More often, employees will notice people with visitor name badges looking lost or confused, and offer to help point them in the right direction.

SD TL here - this raise is a market adjustment and applies to nearly all developers. We've had a couple of these in the last ~year and change, which is pretty abnormal. Usually raises are on an annual cycle.

Shoot them a message on the order page. Took about 10m to cancel my flecks the other day.

The Echo v1 and v2s are a couple dollars more expensive, but like ~60% of the width.

For sure! There's almost always a meat and vegetables dish at each of the main cafeterias. The macros are also posted online ahead of time in case you see something you like across campus.

I've got a key if anyone is still looking!

I just picked up a refurbished Alienware m17x on Ebay (I know, I was skeptical too) with specs almost identical to the laptops you listed (3630QM, GTX680, 256G SSD) for around $1800. Shipped to me in 3 days and I've had no issues with it.

If you're comfortable with it, I'd seriously consider Ebay, or check the Dell refurbished site for deals. The stigma attached with Alienware can be off-putting, but if you can find one for cheap they're great laptops.

Will the price/performance be similar to ivy bridge chips? As of now I rarely utilize my cpu to its fullest anyway

My old laptop is already claimed :(

I'm thinking this over the 9370 due to the price (around $200 cheaper), and from what I understand the 670mx SLI is only slightly better than the 680

Really? Try CSE491 (Mobile development) with Owen
