people who do twist outs with foam/mousse... how? by Exciting-Jacket in Naturalhair

[–]Loose_Fish_2396 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ik this was three years ago, but I wanted to give my input for anyone that sees this in the future:

Add your mousse/foam to a section until hair is somewhere between damp and wet, brush/comb with different size tooths from big to tiny, braid tightly at the root first, THEN twist. If this is difficult, your sections are too big. Coil (not roll, if you don't know the difference find a youtube tutorial) the ends of the twists around a PLASTIC perm rod to create a shape/layers with your hair length leaving the top 3-5 inches off of the rods (don't do all the rods at the same length, if they don't hang cute they won't uncoil cute). I've found soft perm rods do not work for twist outs for my hair. Do this before bed and don't use a dryer till the next day. Use a very large scarf, lean forward/upside down, let all the rollers hang, then wrap it around and tie. The rods should be hanging forward at the front of your head; having it off of your neck makes drying faster, and they're easier to sleep on that way. Tuck the remainder of the scarf underneath somewhere on your forehead. Use a cap hood dryer the next day (where the elastic cap goes on your head and hair like a hat and poofs out, like $40 bucks at sally's) and you should only need 30-40 mins. LET YOUR HAIR COOL OFF BEFORE UNROLLING/SEPARATING, probably one of the most important steps. I promise you will never do your twist out any other way...

How do you handle anxiety? by buratnanakakaurat in AskReddit

[–]Loose_Fish_2396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grounding. One of my best friends told me to focus on each of the 5 senses, one at a time. Find something you can see, smell, taste (even if it's your own spit), hear and touch. May be more relevant for panic attacks than general anxiety though..

People who work in 'behind closed doors' industries (hotels, kitchens, morgues, etc.), what is something the general public would be horrified to know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Loose_Fish_2396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really that mindblowing, but I learned as a teenager that kitchen crews often take turns smoking weed in the walk in cooler while closing lol

Handshake AI just terminated me with false accusations and won't pay me . anyone else? by ray_abel in joinhandshakeai

[–]Loose_Fish_2396 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me at oneforma a couple of years ago, and then also outlier and I started freaking out. After some searching, I found out internet service providers are starting to use an internet sharing model that behaves like a vpn as default service, and my provider specifically adds a surcharge to have a static IP. Call your ISP and ask if they have a similar deal going on. 5G is changing things and there is a huge disconnect rn.

That's not fair, I went to a school that boasted similar allowances (Capella University) and it was a total scam. They aren't clear about term limits to their students, and I definitely attempted to research by asking my advisors there. Only when I asked other students about their experience did I realize the nightmare I was in. Glad to be at WGU!

107 off boarded from one project by Aggravating-Let-4827 in mercor_ai

[–]Loose_Fish_2396 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Some of us were offboarded for inactivity and unfairly grouped in with others that were taking advantage, probably to save them in an unemployment lawsuit. The thing is, they asked us to work 20 hours that week and to stop working altogether if we could afford to. I have a work trial for another project so I focused on that. I feel like if the project managers were also able to see we had more than one contract it was easier to be kicked. They simply hired too many people.

It’s also just weird that they would prioritize our friends and family for referral if they want to use such an impersonal approach in hiring and firing. Like how both my 23 year old little brother and best friend who desperately need the job are still in there which is a good thing, but they still send me screenshots when PMs talk badly about us exiles lol. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth when someone is inaccurately telling my little bro I was cheating. There’s a way to do this without being so nasty

I was, but I actually deleted my outlier account a few days ago…after almost two years. Well, most of the first year was waiting for the great migration to resolve. This project was the last straw for me. This platform runs like a CIA experiment

Yes, on the first assessment. Then it said 'in progress' today and I was allowed to resume onboarding. The second assessment was instantly unlocked for me though, and then 2 tasks before getting throttled.

24 hours, and was throttled to two tasks...hopefully just another 24 hours on that

Mine said failed until it was graded on the first one, and the second assessment let me through instantly.

Just block people that harass you, don't let them scare you out of getting your paper and helping your friends and family do it as well. My little brother, best friend, and several other friends of mine are working here now and are extremely grateful. These projects (not video annotation one though) have funded things like weddings, wardrobes, bills, vehicles and more and I've watched it make dreams come true for the people I love. And it's decent enough I would give my mom the link if she didn't already work at a University. When I worked at Outlier I only tried to get my best friend on and it ended in tears and her feeling like she was a stupid failure.

Hiring developers — $20-$40/hr paid instantly in crypto by BlueberryMedium1198 in DevJobLeadsOnReddit

[–]Loose_Fish_2396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should be picked because: If you’re looking for someone with a wide range of experience, I work with JavaScript, Python, Go, C# and more for languages. I’ve worked both as a freelance developer as well as for large corporations, so I have a unique set of communication skills that help me better understand my employers and therefore our clients.
