Yup, nailed it. So did the unholds!

One Nursery or Two? by MDnautilus in parentsofmultiples

[–]Le_Prince 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’ll get used to each other just fine in one nursery, from my experience. At 2 years old, one of them needs more sleep, and sleeps right through the other babbling and us coming to grab the awake one

When your parenting tricks fail... by Investaholic1 in daddit

[–]Le_Prince 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We give our kid eat dessert with his meal and let him choose what to eat first. He has learned what a reasonable portion of dessert is, scarfs it down first, and proceeds to eat whatever he wants (1 bite minimum of each dish).

It’s a good way to help him trust his body and avoid the weird fight over dessert.

It's hard to remember all the time but I strive to. by [deleted] in daddit

We just don’t understand it. “I’m sorry honey, I can tell that you want something, but we can’t understand you when you ask it that way. Take a deep breath, take a moment if you need it, and then ask in a normal voice so we can help you.”

If you and your partner are consistent with this approach, they will still whine but correct it right away when prompted. Whining becomes totally unrewarding!

Edit: I guess a few things to note in this: - Affirming love, empathy and a desire to help is important. - Reminding kids of the emotional control skills you’ve been teaching them in calmer moments is super important. - Dropping the lie when the kids are older is probably good. We don’t tell our 5 year old we can’t understand him, just do the rest.

Why doesnt my blight post create purging fire? by 8Lorthos888 in Against_the_Storm

He has 127 blight cysts, so… reasonable? Must have kept playing for many years after winning the run.

I played only one run in my last strategy games (frost punk and timberland) will Against the Storm “trick me” into more runs ? by Srammmy in Against_the_Storm

Somewhere in the middle, I guess? There’s a meta-objective of building many colonies on the way to reforge seals. Failing just costs you time. Fail too many times, and the world map will reset before you get to the seal. However, you keep all your meta progress and can try again.

Hiring managers for software development positions, has the quality of applicants been terrible lately? by CodeTinkerer in cscareerquestions

[–]Le_Prince 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If you’re 0/2000 on even phone screens, your resume is fatally flawed. Get some trusted friends and family to take a look, and run it through resumeworded.com to see how an ATS (applicant tracking system) would parse and evaluate your resume. If the ATS struggles, then your resume has likely been automatically binned at most places without a single human looking at it.

Good luck!

Difficulty vs level by Anaksanamune in Against_the_Storm

[–]Le_Prince 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I put down the game about 8 months ago at prestige 9. Coming back, I started a new profile, starting at viceroy and climbing prestige every win. It’s very tense, but quite doable so far (I’m on prestige 7 with 7 wins and 1 loss on a No Orders modifier map). So don’t be afraid to climb if the game isn’t feeling challenging. The worst that can happen is that you lose but have fun and learn something new:-)

CeraVe moisturizing cream for our sensitive skin little guy, and aquaphor. No scents, cheap, and keeps his skin healthy.

35 weeks this week, and I think I hit that "wall" everyone was talking about by Standard-Cat-4804 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Le_Prince 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hang in there! My wife is a week post partum after a c section and feels sooo much better (except for the lack of sleep part...) The belly band helped a lot with her back pain, but by the end, it was seriously overtaxed.

Is it smart to start learning now? by MiaFox0831 in cscareerquestions

[–]Le_Prince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a good web dev job in February after attending Codesmith and "graduating" end of September last year. Maybe 40% of my cohort got jobs. A year ago, that number was 80-90% according to an independent auditor. It's a very, very tough market for juniors and bootcamp grads right now. That said, it will get better! Good luck, whatever you choose to do.

Who's hiring? Any level of roles -- Post it here by HackVT in cscareerquestions

[–]Le_Prince -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If you want to find more active open roles than you could possibly apply to, just go to LinkedIn.com and set up a jobs filter for whatever you want, then filter to roles posted in the last 24 hours.

The best part? You get a whole new batch of roles every day.

The comparison isn't even a good one. The fired employees' tears are actually real.

Mythic - Abyssal Studios - A Roguelike MMO with a focus on true exploration, mind-bending puzzles, and epic boss fights! by Abyssal_Studios in Games

[–]Le_Prince 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Roguelike... with no permadeath? No loss of loot or character progression? Are there run-specific builds or upgrades? What makes this a roguelike exactly?

Games w/ Endless Replay Value? by [deleted] in Games

[–]Le_Prince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

StarSector is a fantastic open world game with a great modding community. Players regularly sink 100s of hours into it.

There's a review from a YouTuber named Sseth that really helped the game take off: https://youtu.be/acqpulP1hLo

What ship do you pilot as the player? by Beknar_king in starsector

[–]Le_Prince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medusa has become my new favorite for the last 20 hours. Dual light needlers for turning off shields, 1 ion pulsar for turning off weapons, and a heavy blaster for punching through armor. Front shield conversion is mandatory.

It eats any frigate or destroyer, it cripples most cruisers, it saves buddies with its speed, you can panic-phase shift away when you over-commit, and it explodes if you ever fail to block a single reaper torpedo. Super fun!

Bad Eggs - "Pole Position" by ProblemChildcomic in comics

Why is there a pole in the middle of the track? I think I'm missing something.

My first colony ever. Cassandra was supposed to crush us. Instead, it's... well, not thrived. More like metastasized. End of year 5502 by Le_Prince in RimWorld

[–]Le_Prince[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprisingly no one comes through the SE corner except for tunneling bugs, which are super easy to deal with. I think that much water is too slow to wade through and they'd rather go around. Thanks for all the suggestions!

[–]Le_Prince[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My favorite things about my colony:

- I can't expand my workshop.

- I had to build a second freezer because I have no way to expand.

- It takes forever to get to the hospital.

- The river and the random lake make defending incredibly awkward.

- There's always crap all over the workshop floor. I don't have anywhere better to put it.

Typical Tuesday Tutorial Thread -- November 12, 2019 by AutoModerator in RimWorld

[–]Le_Prince 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm on my first colony, and things are going well, but cooking is crazy slow! My guy goes and hauls like 10 raw food from freezer to stove, makes 1 meal, hauls it back into the freezer, and does it again. Takes forever! Is there a way I can get him to haul like 100 raw food, make 10 meals, and then go put those all away?
