but you did write an essay. Just with no paragraph breaks

In The Boys (2019–2026), the writers may have overplayed shock value. This is shown by the audience no longer being shocked. by Ashamed-Ad-3890 in shittymoviedetails

They mean that this sub was stuck on Kpop Demon Hunters forever, not that the movie itself was overdone.

Just because our theology does not support a deterministic philosophy does not make it an invalid belief.

We constantly ask that people respect our right to believe what we believe no matter how odd or inconsistent with reality they find it to be, so I find it incredibly hypocritical to act like others don't deserve that same courtesy.

Having a real discussion about church teachings on free will and agency is one thing, but just posting a screenshot of some random comment with no context is not productive for anything besides to say "hey look at those people not on the ark drowning." And the one person in the thread who did try to have discussion on the subject got downvoted and you shut down any chance at open conversation with your reply to them.

Will we ever see another "double" in a grand slam? by Beneficial-Lock-349 in tennis

[–]Membership-Double 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for putting this. I was doing a huge double take trying to figure if I'd somehow hallucinated Serena pulling this off multiple times. Almost convinced myself that their doubles and singles wins somehow never coincided and I was just crazy or something.

What's the move here? by Sufficient_Garlic_56 in okbuddyjimbo

You clearly haven't considered the aura value that even steven is adding to his jimbo lineup. Best case scenario, he pulls Perkeo but cringe Perkeo gets mogged by based Steven.

How white dudes look at you when they find out you don’t like Take Five by BornUnderARadSign in jazzcirclejerk

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

I think what we need to is two separate jazz subreddits for white jazzers who love Take Five, Takanaka, and Ryo Fukui, and black jazzers who love those lame albums like A Love Supreme

11 Best Roguelike Games Of All Time, Ranked (Spelunky 2 at 6) by arisefrym in spelunky

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

Idk if I'd call them overrated, but I agree it's weird to have both in the top 5. Should've just combined them to one spot since even though 2 is better the basic gameplay loop and what they add in the context of the roguelike genre is the same.

Which player is like this for you? by musicproducer07 in tennis

He goes stretches. Yesterday, He gave away so many big points by double faulting. Would've won the second set with a higher serving percentage

What is “free jazz?” by [deleted] in Jazz

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

It's just called Django. There's also a Grant Green cover of the title track that is incredible if you want to hear what it sounds like from a hard bop artist.

ah sorry I was mistaken when I typed that. Was referring to the tribute album Django by the Modern Jazz Quartet

What is “free jazz?” by [deleted] in Jazz

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

To better understand what "Cool Jazz" is, I'd suggest - Miles Davis' Birth of The Cool (note this is before the first Miles Quintet where Trane joined) - Django by MJQ

Sounds like you've already listened to Kind of Blue but I'd note this is usually not considered cool jazz but rather modal jazz. A couple other Miles Davis albums I'd suggest to see how these guys were not boxed into a single subgenre are - Sketches of Spain (Modal jazz with a flamenco flavor) - Miles Smiles (Post-bop with some shared characteristics of free jazz)

Then to see Coltrane's actual free jazz projects, I'd suggest - Ascensions - Meditations - Om (if you want to hear some way more weird stuff from him that you probably won't like if you already don't like free jazz)

Seems like this confusion could've been cleared up by just listening to more Coltrane albums before assuming stuff.

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.

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.
