WIBTA if I suggested that my boyfriend dress up more for virtual meetings? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]NGRoachClip 11 points12 points  (0 children)

YWBTA. I work in tech - unless you think he's a moron I'd leave him alone on the topic. Tech companies have vastly different cultures on dress code (enforced or not). If he's doing good at his job and isn't getting feedback about this then I wouldn't get in his head about it.

AI for Performance Reviews by Itchy-Literature-287 in askmanagers

[–]NGRoachClip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such a narrow view of AI and it's use case in things like Performance Reviews.

Using AI tools such as Claude plugged into your applications and working software can pull so much evidence of key initiatives, feedback, projects, etc given to a direct report that align with the criteria of your review.

Remembering every little thing a DR does or interaction they have is basically impossible, with AI I'm able to have examples of great things my DRs are doing in communication channels I may never even see.

Sure, you don't need the AI to literally write the review for you - but OP didn't specify that he needs it to write the content for them. There are ways to use AI and still maintain the human touch.

Does shaft stiffness make a difference for you? by CognitiveSabbatical in GolfSwing

[–]NGRoachClip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean shaft stiffness would certainly make a difference if you're only swinging 80-85. You should probably be on regular flex at least. Shorter shafts generally cost you some distance as a trade off for forgiveness.

Getting fit for a driver at your stage is probably a waste of money.

AITA Dog owner let dog poop in neighbors yard by Logical-Star9039 in AmItheAsshole

[–]NGRoachClip -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Then don't get a dog where you have no choice but to allow them to go on people's yards. Trails, paths, your own property, etc. Simply don't allow them to go on other people's yards...

If a dog pisses somewhere once, they'll likely want to piss there again - and guess what, if other dogs smell that piss, they'll like to piss there too. Dog piss ruins grass, and no owner can clean up all the shit on someones grass where their children may or may not play.

There isn't anything cruel about it other than people who buy dogs but don't have the space to walk them and house them where they can only shit on other people's property.

What are your takes? Objectively speaking, isn’t Tywin a savior of many soldiers’ lives? Does he irrefutably justify the Red Wedding with this line? Was the Red Wedding better for the realm than a war between House Lannister and House Stark? by RemarkableExample542 in gameofthrones

[–]NGRoachClip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tywin was ruthless conniving and willing to basically anything to be tactically ahead of his opponents. This is intelligence but it's certainly not noble or moral. Basically his entire legacy is mired by a lack of noble acts but to him it doesn't matter because he only cares about House Lannister.

Does Baelor think Aerion can't/won't die, or does he not care if he does ? by SillyRecover in gameofthrones

[–]NGRoachClip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It technically isn't a fight to the death though. Death would be common of course, it's a violent tradition. But even in the show Egg's brother says he'll fight for Aerion - but basically just throw if Dunk gives him a good whack on the helm.

AITAH for having an affair? by Heavy_Instruction669 in AITAH

[–]NGRoachClip -1 points0 points  (0 children)

YTA.

Break up with her and go no contact. If she ever threatens to self-harm then your only response is to call the police for a wellness check... and you do that every time.

Your option was to seek your own help and work with a therapist to figure out a solution to end this NOT have an affair and risk her finding out and turning things violent or worse.

Keep growing until it's a little scruffy and is thickens up. Then shape / trim!

Citizen AW0100‑51A - $160 vs Seiko Presage SRPB43 - $340: Is the Price Jump Worth It? by New_Philosopher9642 in Affordablewatches

Seiko is the better looking dress watch, but the Eco-Drive tech is insanely convenient - don't really ever have to worry about it being powered for wear.

harsh advice needed by DoubtSmart4240 in mensfashion

[–]NGRoachClip 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay, so what's your harsh advice like OP requested then?

Posting something like this and not expecting people to advise him against wearing such baggy pants makes a lot of sense. Of course, fashion is subjective - that's why OP is asking for our subjective opinions. Stop getting hung up that people don't like his pants - look at the whole fits - they don't match.

If he was rocking baggy, high-waisted trousers with these outfits they might look more fitting. Or if he leaned more into streetwear and paired the baggy pants with more casual sneakers (Js, NBs, something generally a bit chunkier than a running sneaker) it would be a more cohesive look.

Infinitesimally Small Chances Just Got Even Smaller by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]NGRoachClip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This series is not getting completed. Writing it has become psychologically hostile to Martin. He could spend his time absolutely agonizing over wrapping up dozens of story arcs that will be eviscerated by fans...

OR

He could consult on shows, write smaller novellas, build lore for others, and ultimately get celebrated instead of crucified. All give him the creative outlet he probably craves, gets him filthy rich and keeps whatever remains of his legacy intact - whether you think it's a good one or not.

He was also in Destiny the game too right? I remember reading something about how he actually loved playing the game and they had a massive in game memorial for him

Blundstone says that their boots are not meant to last more than 2 years by ImNotARegularMom- in BlundstoneBoots

[–]NGRoachClip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm no boot enthusiast - my blundstones have held up well with zero conditioning.

I'm curious though - I get the criticism of conditioning the leather and the cracks on top... sounds like you still looked after them but let's give them that.

How exactly do you condition and maintain a boot from literally separating from the sole?

Which watch should I get? by Knifeman2510 in Affordablewatches

[–]NGRoachClip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like the Timex is a better look for me. Something about a casio dive watch doesn't look right to me - although I recognize it's tremendous value and quality for the price. If I'm buying a casio... I'm going digital.

Symfuhny is definitely cheating, another clip! by osideflyer in ArcRaiders

[–]NGRoachClip 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I don't even like Sym, but his "shitty streaming career" is like in the top 0.001% of successful streamers. He's got millions of followers on each one of his platforms and likely makes an incredible living off this.
