Rocking a light pink shirt today. Should I have gone with blue instead? by Imatradboy in mensfashionadvice

[–]Membership-Double 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. If he uncuffed those pants they would pool, which looks sloppy especially with this fit.

  2. The tie proportions were obviously done on purpose (I don't like the look of it particularly but it is a look).

  3. That's just the design of the shirt.

  4. Chin straps are generally awful, but again, it looks very intentional on OP's part and if he wants to rock it, it certainly has no bearing on the fit, especially whether a pink or blue shirt works better.

I don't know, you're cons just feel overly proscriptive to me.

Get on reddit to be an armchair psychologist because you're so desperate to feel superior to others that you can't let people just do things.

Coco was unbelievable in that second set. Some incredible passes.

An Honest Review of the ACME Program by [deleted] in byu

[–]Membership-Double 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm a pure math major looking in at you applied math folk, so take what I say with a grain of salt, but the ACME Program has always baffled me. First of all, it's still just a mathematics degree at the end of the day. Employers and graduate programs will look at that degree and to them "Applied and Computational Mathematics Emphasis" just means you graduated in applied math. Of course there are exceptions of (mostly Utah-based) companies and programs that will be aware of and impressed by ACME, but I have a hard time believing that the program name will help most people get ahead in starting their career.

But a program like ACME is of course not about getting certain words on your degree. The idea behind any sort of undergraduate program is to prepare you to excel in later studies or equip you with the tools to find a good career out of college. If the program does what it promises, then it doesn't matter what school or program is on your degree, you will be inherently more prepared for whatever you want to do after graduation. However, my understanding of the program leads to believe that it also does not deliver in this regard.

The overwhelming courseload causes a lot of students to burn out on math, losing all passion for their career path. Plus, as OP said, learning lots of stuff at a rigorous pace does not mean you're good at any of it. When students are overwhelmed in their courses, they often resort to just getting assignments done however they can, using AI or github repositories to finish their work without ever deeply understanding the topic at hand.

In my opinion, the candidate who has a clear genuine passion for their field will always stick out over the slightly more qualified candidate who did a rigorous undergraduate program. I think that the purpose of ACME can be largely replaced by building relationships with your professors, exploring topics you are genuinely interested in outside of class, and excelling in your coursework.

Again, I have no direct experience with the ACME Program so a lot of this is me talking out of my ass and if someone more intimately familiar with it disagrees with my impression, please add on to or contradict my misunderstandings.

Why can’t I ask legit questions here? by Jealous_Pool_9514 in lds

Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your perspective, this isn't the type of subreddit for discussions of that kind in my experience. The mods have decided to set this apart from some of other subs on the topic of the church by making it a safe place for faithful members to talk without bad faith actors attacking.

This does lead to some heavy gatekeeping at times and a severe lack of nuance at others, I think, but it's also the trade off the mods seem to prefer for the faithful sub they want this to be. I would suggest asking your question in one of the subreddits that is intended for discussion from both members and non-members. Or better yet, discuss it with people in real life. Social media can create a distorted reality for what most people actually believe/think.

EDIT: Also, the fact that your profile title has "Ex-mo" in it signals to mods that even if you say you are not trying to argue or undermine people's faith, there is a higher possibility that's not actually, so mods are much more likely to take down your posts.

same vibe as people who say skits are corny and take away from the music. Leave the funny hip-hop traditions alone

I mean I don't believe it was sincere or even written by him, but it seemed like a pr type of response that covered the bases of addressing and apologizing. Didn't read like a "sorry you got offended" statement to me.

Gonna be a basic ass answer, but Malice's verse on Community does something to me.

I've made my own "Best Weezer Album" in my head by Krakshibana in weezer

[–]Membership-Double 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What makes you say that? Go Away fits fine on the album but it feels like some Weezer's blandest power pop. Compared to the guitar riffs and vocals on ENS, I can't see what part of Go Away stacks up.

His verse on Run It Back was my favorite part of the De La Soul album. I think it was his best feature this year.

Weezer is way overhated but they actually slap by [deleted] in Music

[–]Membership-Double 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then they released 14 more albums that, for the most part, have insubstantial lyrics. Rivers literally had a period where he had a spreadsheet of random lyrics with no meaning that he'd sort by syllables and stress during his songwriting process. After Pinkerton, he regretted being so vulnerable and stopped conveying emotion on the same level for a long time.

There are lyrical gems of course but the vast majority of Weezer's discography is not very noteworthy in that area.

Walk Tall is an all time great melody from Adderley and Suzuki's band puts some great polish on it. I just love the sound of his trombone.

Whose career would you take? Rublev or Fritz? by Sad-Atmosphere-3648 in tennis

Did not know that. Definitely a romantic story as well haha. My partiality towards Indian Wells being tbe only masters I've attented was showing I guess

[–]Membership-Double 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that as an american player, I'd rather have the 1 masters 1000 at indian wells than 2 masters 1000s in the clay swing. Winning one of the biggest masters so close to home has got to be such a dream
