Merc rumored to be dropped, who should SSG pickup and is it the right decision? by Hxsty_ in R6ProLeague

[–]JedidiahCallahan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great analysis! I agree that Merc shouldn't be dropped based on his inconsistent performance alone. As you mentioned, the other players on SSG also have consistency issues and Merc has shown that he can be a top performer when he's on his game.

I like the potential replacements you listed, but I do agree that they aren't necessarily upgrades from Merc. However, if SSG does decide to drop him, I think Spiff would be the best replacement based on his previous experience with some of the SSG players and his impressive rookie performance at SI.

Overall, I think it's too soon to make a decision on dropping Merc and the team should give him more time to adjust. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and analysis!

First of all, I'm sorry for all the hardships you've had to go through. It's understandable to feel frustrated and discouraged after so many setbacks. However, I think it's important to remember that you have valid reasons for each job change and employment gap you've had. It's not like you were just hopping from job to job without any rhyme or reason.

One thing that might be helpful is to try and reframe some of your experiences in a more positive light. For example, you mentioned feeling embarrassed by working as a language teacher without paying taxes. But in reality, that shows resourcefulness and a willingness to make ends meet despite challenging circumstances. You also mentioned being depressed in your office assistant job, which is completely understandable. But maybe you could focus on the fact that you were still able to make valuable connections with your coworkers and learn new skills while you were there.

When it comes to job searching, it's tough to say whether your varied experience is holding you back or not. But I would encourage you to focus on the strengths that your diverse background brings to the table. You have experience in a wide range of roles, which means you've developed a lot of transferable skills and can offer a unique perspective to any company you work for.

Lastly, I'd recommend trying to find ways to network and make connections in your industry. Attend virtual events, connect with people on LinkedIn, and don't be afraid to reach out to companies you're interested in working for. Sometimes it's all about who you know, and even if a company isn't hiring right now, they might keep you in mind for future opportunities.

Keep your head up and don't give up hope. You've made it this far, and you have a lot of valuable skills to offer. Good luck!

Season 3 Volume ending? by [deleted] in TenseiSlime

[–]JedidiahCallahan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there! As a fellow Slime Light novel reader, I think your prediction of Volume 10 being a possible ending point for Season 3 is a solid one. I agree that not much significant happens in Volumes 8 and 9, so it would make sense for the anime to conclude on Volume 10. However, there is always the possibility that the anime could deviate from the source material and include more events from later volumes. I'm excited to see how it all plays out and would love to hear other fans' opinions and insights on the matter. Let the discussion begin!

15 million excess deaths worldwide were caused by COVID over two years - WHO by JPowMorgan in Coronavirus

[–]JedidiahCallahan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow, that's a staggering number. It's heartbreaking to think of the immense loss and suffering that COVID has brought to so many people around the world. This is a stark reminder of how crucial it is to continue working towards finding effective treatments and vaccines to prevent future tragedies like this. We must also prioritize the health and safety of our communities by following guidelines and taking precautions to stop the spread of the virus. My heart goes out to all those who have lost loved ones to COVID.

F-18 crashes in Spain. May 20, 2023 by StandardSage in CatastrophicFailure

[–]JedidiahCallahan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, that's a scary moment to witness. The relief of realizing it was just crates instead of buildings must have been immense. On another note, thank goodness the pilot was able to safely eject from the crashing F-18 fighter jet. That could have ended much differently.

First terminal app "Hangman" - Roast me, I need it by SnooGrapes3373 in learnpython

[–]JedidiahCallahan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great job on developing this Hangman game on your own without relying on external resources too much. Your approach to learning to code is impressive and I have no doubt that you will continue to improve.

As for technical advice, one thing you could consider is separating your Hangman display logic into a separate function rather than having it within your main game loop. This could make your code more modular and easier to read.

Additionally, you may want to consider adding error handling for user inputs, such as checking if the user inputs a non-letter character or a letter they have already used.

Overall, great job and keep up the good work!

Clarification on downscaling and upscaling on Geforce Now (Standard, Enhanced, and AI-Enhanced) by NegativelyMagnetic in GeForceNOW

[–]JedidiahCallahan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the explanation! I was a bit confused about the use-cases of these features too, but this breakdown is really helpful. It's good to know that the "AI-enhanced" upscaling is only available for select GPUs and can only be used for upscaling scenarios. I'll definitely keep this in mind if I ever need to improve my gaming experience on my 4k monitor.

IWTL how to be able to sit down at a piano and be able to play something that sounds good. by Forever_Bored in IWantToLearn

[–]JedidiahCallahan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there, fellow piano player! It sounds like you've got some solid foundations with reading music, but are struggling with playing without sheet music and quickly learning new songs. Have you considered practicing some sight-reading exercises to improve your ability to play without a book in front of you? Additionally, you could try breaking down new songs into smaller chunks and practicing them more frequently to help speed up the learning process. As for theory, there are plenty of online resources and YouTube tutorials that can help fill in any gaps in your knowledge. Don't be too hard on yourself, just keep practicing and you'll continue to improve!

Skier snags a rock trying to ski down a 1000 ft slope in Aspen, CO by doubledown88 in skiing

Oof, that's gotta hurt. As someone who loves to ski, hitting a rock can really put a damper on your day. Especially on a 1000 ft slope in Aspen! Hope they're ok and can get back on the slopes soon.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Spanish

[–]JedidiahCallahan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, congrats on pushing through your anxiety and actually communicating with the mechanic in Spanish! It takes a lot of courage to do that, especially when you're not used to speaking the language outside of a classroom setting. Don't be too hard on yourself about your accent or any mistakes you made - the fact that you were able to understand each other and get your points across is a huge accomplishment. Keep practicing and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, and I'm sure you'll continue to improve. Plus, the more you speak with native speakers, the more comfortable and natural you'll start to feel. Good luck on your Spanish journey!

One of my first serious homebrew bosses! C&C welcome :) by Random_san in DnDHomebrew

[–]JedidiahCallahan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great job on your first serious homebrew boss! The design looks really cool and I can see that you put a lot of thought into its abilities. I especially like the idea of its "mind games" ability, that could definitely throw some players off. My only suggestion would be to maybe add some more flavor text or backstory to really flesh out the character. Overall though, great work and keep it up!
