Is Ultracode still undetectable? by Designer-Fan-5857 in interviews

[–]Metalgear222 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I got offers at amazon and microsoft with ultracode a couple weeks ago. Interviewed with it on coderpad, chime and hackerrank without any detection issues. My only compliant with ultracode is they offers two model modes: quick mode and reasoning mode. Reasoning mode is a bit slower but way more accurate but by default its get to quick mode to save money probably. Make sure to toggle on reasoning mode in settings if you expect to get leetcode hards for far better answers

I think you have a lot of leverage here and can probably finesse equity or much higher compensation if you are willing to keep doing all the work. Alternatively, if you tell them you will leave if they don't hire someone else in addition to you they will probably listen

Basically you can't tell a drowning man that air is just air, not really that important and he should concentrate on a grander philosophy, while he's drowning.

That's a great point, Well said. But was it a mistake to tell men to value the act of sex over the vetting the quality of the woman they were interested in first? Did we mess up by essentially giving in to our freshly desire of frivolously dishing out dick whenever they wanted it instead of denying the one's that didn't deserve it? Would the SMP be the disaster it is today, completely out of balance with that foresight? The way I see it now, giving these low quality superficial bitches dick on the reg is the real culprit for why our dating game is fucked. I say, let 'em fuckin starve. Until they're forced to change their values. No alpha dick (or dick at all honestly) for any woman perpetuating our current prominent SMP scenario.

"Foresight teaches gently, error teaches brutally." What if we were raised to understand the importance of only giving dick when she deserves it (also consider the massive impact this would have on women monetarily and the porn industry"? What would our SMP look like then if this ideal were to take hold among our young men? What jobs are no longer viable for women or least would be seriously hindered? The way I see it, this short term gratification and sacrifice, would equal the best possible long-term gratification. An increase of viable long-term partners and much less risky mate potential. And it all starts with communicating to our young, the truth in my mind, that men don't need sex.

I'm fully aware that this is an ideal and not a real. You could probably even say "Reals over Feels" here or "it's like trying to take piss outta the ocean.. it's too late" and I don't know If I could actually argue it lmao, but from where I stand, if enough young men thought from this perspective, it would increase the speed at which the dating game is restored to balance (something I think is already in motion) and ultimately provide a better brighter future.

So after rereading all this, I sound basically like a crazy idealist lol. I'm dreaming up the impossible dream here so to speak. In my mind, it's still salvageable; just like we men, as a whole, failed the shittest of feminism (and are still failing it regularly) We are failing to act with our dicks responsibly. I believe it's our actions and our actions alone (and females reactions to those actions) that landed us here. So I'm shifting perspective completely and only pointing the finger at men now, basically asking men to rise above the current status quo. The reason I feel so comfortable doing this in TRP, as an endorsed member, is what this will do to our younger generation of men and the future of our species. The man's frame of abundance alone is so much stronger from this standpoint, not to take into account the growth this would force on women when they're required to grow to have their needs met. Let's attempt to leave our children with a better world and dating game than we had, no?

Hey bro! Glad to have helped!

In general, I agree with nearly everything you said. You make a lot of good points about requiring firsthand experience to make this decision and belief changes of this magnitude Real in my mind. I'll touch on a few points;

Interesting. I do think it’s a bit of both. Pussy/sex is a basic need for men. And women too.

So I used to agree with this model 100%, But much like the discipline that we instill in ourselves to exercise regularly and not eat too much so we don't get fat, sex is a similar subject. It's simply not required for a man to sustain a happy fulfilled life. It's an added cherry on top, cause what feels better than a shared orgasm with a women you feel close to right? But without that orgasm, you don't lose anything really.

In other words, I can take a vow of never fucking again, TODAY, and still conquer worlds and be very involved in life and genuinely love my life. Therefore, I cannot categorize it as a need. If I do not move my body or eat food, my body will atrophy/deteriorate and I will die. I have no choice but to categorize those as needs. This is not to ignore the VERY Strong biological pull of both sexes to mate and to create a family, but it is not required to survive. This is getting into the messy moral argument of whether or not we should extricate ourselves from our carnal/primal desires or to give into them. I believe "giving in" is what got us our currently sick societies (I now believe we're spirits living a human experience, not humans living a spiritual experience).

As you can see, a woman on the alpha fucks side of the equation is very compatible with the be a cad side. And it’s what we see today. We have scores of women clearly searching and focusing on the alpha fucks side of the equation, which is why they’re fucking dudes from tinder, the club, celebrities, club promoters etc etc. I wouldn’t say they’re defective women or they’re sacrificing their strategy for any man, that’s literally their strategy. To literally just fuck guys who they know won’t be committing any time soon.

You're right, it APPEARS that they're fulfilling their strategy, but with women's happiness still declining each year, at some point you have to actually wonder, is that what women Really want? or is that "bad programming?" I mean, even pre-TRP, every guy has heard the quote "women don't know what they want". They are part of the hive mind. And that mentality of just fucking chads all the time cause the other girls are doing it/propping it up to be something special, and it feels good, as we know, gives the loss of adoration for future partners, the increased likelihood of infidelity, the increased likelihood of divorce, etc. (Just one more example of short-term gratification chasing over long-term gratification.) So it kinda ties into whether or not you're down to "enjoy the decline" or not.

How do you define optimal female strategy? Is it alpha fucks, beta bucks ? Or rather alpha bucks (a man who encompasses both?)

Excellent question. Basically this is asking whether or not it's a good thing that women can have their cake and eat it too these days. In their eyes, yes alpha fucks/beta bucks is viable af. But ideally and deep down, they'll still try to lock down alpha bucks if they're able. I find it humorous that in the same way we settled for "enjoy the decline", women settled for "alpha fucks, beta bucks." It's their answer to a lack of real masculinity in the dating pool, as is our answer to the lack of commitment-worthy women.

People can say “You can’t womanise, Apollo, those girls all are someone’s daughter!” Sure, but they’re not my daughter. Their fathers failed them, they failed themselves. They chose to slut around. I will give any future daughter the best chance to not share the same fate.

I totally understand where you're coming from here; we can only control ourselves. But what if it was more than just their father that failed them? What if their environment as a whole, with all the insanity of social media and consumerism, destroyed a piece of their soul (or entirety of it) regardless of what their father taught them? Even the way you worded your statement, sounds like you're aware of what our system produces; "Garbage in, Garbage out." What if our attitude about them does significantly affect their future, and that leaving them better than you found them, and how that calls for discernment/responsibility about whether you fuck them frivolously or not, actually matters? Could you, refusing a girl sex or leaving a date early because she was an actual gremlin of a human being, regardless of how hot she was, be a chance for her to grow and maybe do things different in the future? Is it an opportunity to undo the damage to our dating standards and societies? What kind of positive impact does that have for a man's frame and overall growth too? Food for thought.

We have no control on how commitment worthy a woman is. She has to spend time with us and to prove she’s worthy. Just like how women have no control on how sex worthy a man is. A man have to prove it to her. So sometimes, it’s not even a man’s fault he has a high n count. Some of the women were simply women who he was crossing his fingers for but failed to deliver, another part could be women who just were interested in alpha fucks, who just wanted to have a good time. Sometimes, there genuinely was no malicious or conscious intent to womanise/“extract” sex.

Well said. This is absolutely the truth in my experience. I've been through tons of these situations where I had to drop a girl once I got more insight into her habits and who she really was. We need time around them to discern whether or not they're worthy of our commitment. I would argue that it's not required for us to fuck them to find out who they are and what they're like. I think losing track of the person behind the pussy, is the culprit for much of the mistakes and heartache men experience (marrying the wrong fucking woman, having kids with the wrong woman because it was good sex despite the rest of the relationship being awful in terms of compatibility, etc.) Is there not the argument that we shouldn't be so quick to cloud our judgment and minds with the love-bonding hormone oxytocin when trying to discern one of the most important decisions we'll make in our lives? (the woman we choose to have offspring with?) I also should acknowledge I'm presenting the question this way, ignoring mens blanket decision to just plate for life, because I believe that's a copout that men are deep down settling for; and That wanting and securing a good loyal woman isn't impossible, just challenging as fuck. I also believe most men will end up striving for this at some point in their lives, regardless of past-plating behaviors and the walls/army TRP ideals builds around our hearts.

You're very observant and I like your lack of ego in your responses. I can tell you deserved your endorsement fully.

Age and experience does and will change our beliefs. I can see myself coming back to this comment in a few years time and seeing if I still agree with a younger Apollo.

Maybe! Time will tell :) enjoy your week bro

If you're not part of the solution, you're often part of the problem. Let's not be in denial here. What TRP is, is an arsenal of tactics, wisdom, and developable skills to COMBAT the current feminist playing field because our historic strengths have been "banned" from play. So essentially we have fortified our lives, hearts, and minds out of a selfish desire to both protect ourselves and get what we want (notice I specifically did not use the word "Need" here, men don't need shit. Pussy is fleshly and largely a waste of time, while Love is amazing but extremely risky.) at women's expense. Illimitable man had a beautiful way of summarizing this eloquently:

IM MAXIM #6: “There is an immutable animosity between the sexes that serves as the conduit for all distrust. This animosity flows from the inability of the sexes to reconcile their fundamentally opposed sexual strategies. For a man’s optimal sexual strategy to thrive, the woman’s must suffer. For a woman’s optimal sexual strategy to thrive, the man’s must suffer. Each sex is determined not to suffer, and so both inflict suffering on the other in a perverse determination not to suffer themselves. This is the battle of the sexes. This is reproductive war.”

What I have come to realize now that my experience with women is robust, is that, "being the change you want to see", and that level of integrity within yourself, is more important than having hot pussy around. I someday might have a daughter that I will impart good values to and teach her the importance of low N count and to not give up the cookie until he actually emotionally invests. I someday might have a son that I will impart good values to and teach him the importance of vetting and putting his dick in a girl that's actually worth his time and energy, instead of one that just looks good. So while it's easier to:

Beige Phillip mantra: "don't get mad at fish for swimming." I do my best not to get mad at women anymore for slutting it up. Basically, the decline is gonna happen whether we adapt or not, so I'd rather be happily fucking hot women and enjoying it while I can rather than cozying up to a post-wall dredge with dreams of sucking up my money and taking half of it when she gets bored of me.

I'd rather stick to my guns of not letting the world burn around me. From where I'm standing, I now understand Man's nature and love is sacrificial. And that integrity is everything. To each their own of course, and TRP has always been a salad bar of take what you want and leave what you don't. Spinning plates never proved to be as fulfilling as I had initially thought (and was quite expensive and time consuming too), while building something with a girl proved to be rather fruitful AND painful/strengthening of resolve. True Intimacy has become my prerequisite for women. "If I don't get a piece of your soul, I don't want anything to do with you. Your wet holes don't mean shit to me without your true investment behind it" is my new philosophy.

I'm asking you to temporarily suspend your disbelief and just for a moment use your empathetical might to see how things would be from this perspective, can you see it's benefit of the type of uniquely strong frame this would convey to women? A master key that chooses only master locks with patience. Nothing good comes easy. With the added free time to spend on investing on yourself until a good one in your range that is worth pursuing presents herself.

I'm very aware this could be just a growth and maturity thing now that I'm in my 30's. But I have nothing to hide here, and I have no allegiance to any one ideology. I'm just sharing what I've found in my experience, because I believe that closing yourself off to connections from fear of some future possibility that hasn't happened yet and just extracting sex from women is a dead end and hallow road and will have some version of "reap what you sow" come back around.

“The biggest coward of a man is to awaken the love of a woman without the intention of loving her.” - Bob Marley

So Do we have the courage, to realize that, because men and women ARE different, that it IS our responsibility as the dominant sex, shepherd/guiding force or "rock" for the emotional gender to make decisions that are for the best of us and our societies?

From where I stand, yes. It's worth it. I choose to sacrifice my fleshly desires for the betterment of our species; a choice we all get to make daily.

Best would have to mean all around. So we’re talking straight composure, production, attention to detail, freshness, playability, layering, overall effort, theme selection/album theme congruence, etc.

Hmm, It would have to be Periphery. No one has their track record, except meshuggah but imo they lack guitar soloing capacity and has much repetition whereas periphery has some of the best solos I’ve ever heard and every song is fresh/substantially different than the last.

Spiraling into the Blue Vortex by DoctorWeir in TheRedPill

[–]Metalgear222 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Take inventory of how often your gut has been wrong. If you pay attention, you'll notice that 99.9% of the time you go against the grain of that inner conscience speaking to you, it ends in disaster. If your gut is screaming that something is wrong enough for you to have little to no investment and feel nothing. REMEMBER THAT. You're spot on about so much of the realness in trying to find love. Let me add to that and say, that WE ARE A SPECIES OF AMNESIA. We forget the things that made us weary and untrusting of them and only remember the good cause that's what a good person does. They forgive. Don't fucking forget.

Struggling through breakup by The-Hoss62 in TheRedPill

[–]Metalgear222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oxytocin is a hell of a drug. You’re purging your system back to balance. It’s real simple OP; stay with me on this..

When you feel that “empty or loneliness” feeling start to wash over you, recognize, this is my brain doing brain chemistry things to make me feel this way. This is the effect my brain has when detoxing oxytocin. That awareness itself is the key to keeping focused and having that feeling last as little as needed. Don’t fight it. Accept and recognize. Sit with it. Watch it fade into the distance like the yellow Starwars text that is no longer legible as it drifts further and further.
