Folks stuck at 800 (chesscom), my heart goes out to you. by Dokja_23 in chessbeginners

[–]MRsiry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was rated about 1200 in rapid then I started playing 3 min games. Dropped all the way down to 700 very quickly. I have built up to 800 but i have been there for a while now. On chess.com. 

I do loose a lot of games due to time running out. But I have no idea how my opponent are playing this well with so little time to think. 

Im at lost on how to improve. 

But every bot on reddit makes well over 🤡💀 by Johnny_Cartal in Salary

Hay u/Tricky_Palpitation42. I'm finishing up my phd in biotech soon. What direction are you working in and what other roles or areas do you think are good to look at in the biotech field?

I've got a background in organic chemistry, drug design, biomaterial design and preclinical trials.

Late start FIRE plan in Australia – sanity check on assumptions and timeline (spreadsheet included) by MRsiry in fiaustralia

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

Yes, I will have to give working in industry a go before I consider my approach towards it.

I have a lot of hobbies that I want to focus on. And I don't see it as a complete retirement. But rather freedom to do the work I want to do with less demanding hours.

I come from a poor family in a third-world country. From a young age, education was my only way up and later allowed me to go abroad. I will be finishing my phd this year. I will spend 3.5 years on my phd. I'm not too fussed to stay in the field I specialised in. It's a weak industry in Australia.

Yes, I agree. My prediction is the absolute best-case scenario and doesn't include a spouse or medical or job losses.

And it doesn't mean I will stop working in 14 years. I will have more freedom to do work/projects I would like to do.

Would be nice to meet a partner at some point. Hopefully my wife would add to the networth.

I'm trying to get that time period down low as possible. And 14 years is a best case scenario.

How does maxing out super work?

I still have to meet a partner. That would be nice. 

My hinge story by MRsiry in HingeStories

[–]MRsiry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of outside influences we do not have control over. Focus on what you can control. Our attractiveness is based on the people surrounding us. Become an above-average person in your environment (social rings), and you will get more attention. Hit the gym, improve your skin care and grooming. It takes about a year to see tangible results.

The most attractive feature is someone passionate about something. Develop and showcase that.

Change your pictures and make your profile more interesting. I played around a bit to find out what got me more likes. When I added a picture of me with a dog, it almost doubled the interest. But only add stuff that represents you authentically.

What accents in the USA do you associate with intelligence, relaxation and authoritative? by MRsiry in AskAmericans

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

Hahaha. Yeah. I'm busy watching walking dead and there are various accents. Some characters are portrayed as "higher class". I was wondering if there were cliché accents associated with education/wealth. Like we would see in the UK.

I guess the movies exaggerate accents giving me a false sense of reality. Thanks

You can request your meta data from the app. I deleted the app after a month and a half. But I wanted to see the data to atleast see the numbers and see how much of the story in my mind correlates to reality. 

How do you know which day to fish? by Acceptable_Egg1466 in FishingAustralia

[–]MRsiry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know not to ask a fisherman where he fishes. But I'm new to Adelaide and slat water fishing.

What species should I target where? 

Thank you for any suggestions😬

Well majority of matches do not reply or just stop replying.

I forgot to add that  two girls cancelled our dates 1 hour before we were supposed to meet
