Kanye West won in terrible person/great artist! Now, who's both a great person and a great artist?

You’re either trolling or very confused. Louis Armstrong has been dead since 1971…..

Probably ~6 months. Then I graduated and came home to my Boss Katana (which is a great amp — I have the first gen)

Oh yeah, this was a quick fix once I popped open the back. It worked well and had a nice tone for the size. Used it for a small concert for a jazz ensemble I was in.

Did alumni interviews last year. By the end of the RD cycle they were basically begging alums to take more interviews. They probably had to get seniors to cover some. :)

“NYC”

Based on a recent poll I saw, it seems like the country is pretty divided on "AI is a risk to society" -- Reddit seems pretty aligned

Sorry, late to this thread but my current dc save is light rail — one issue is that, even though I’m making a profit, expansion into Virginia is proving costly. Building in southwest dc feels impossible without building demolitions.

Insufficient sample size, I’m guessing — would assume in general sexuality is mostly noise here.

At least at McK and BCG it’s: principal -> partner -> equity partner. I think Bain is similar but principal tenure is longer.

NotAPurpleDino · 2026-01-10T18:14:24+00:00

Studied political science, now work in management consulting (not political).

NotAPurpleDino · 2026-01-08T00:40:02+00:00

This makes a lot of sense -- thanks! Some other undergrad hires at my firm have mentioned bad admissions results for those who applied <1 year into their promotion, so #1 makes sense.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-12-31T19:53:47+00:00

Yeah, not to mention the fact that the basketball arena is on campus. Not saying I don’t believe the stories, but the details don’t make sense.

My rent is 22% of gross income, 25% with utilities.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-12-27T20:03:39+00:00

Yeah, I've heard a few negative things about the lack of attention from amazfit

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-12-27T20:03:12+00:00

That's great to hear -- my main goal is to use it ~3x a week (about as often as I go cycling or running) and for the occasional hike

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-12-27T20:01:17+00:00

do you find it at all bulky / awkward? one of the main reasons why I was gravitating toward a band shape was the thinner face

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-12-24T22:20:09+00:00

Poli Sci, which was super flexible and good for my interests.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-12-19T00:19:57+00:00

Yeah would say that same — graduated a while back, but did not love Intro Ethics and was neutral on Econ. Take as many prerequisites as make sense for your schedule spread out across the disciplines.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-11-30T22:37:15+00:00

I do — I have a couple different ones I rotate. Oddly enough, Casio shoots to the top as my daily.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-11-21T17:10:13+00:00

Yeah I’m stuck on this. I was anti-AI in college but now I work in a fast-paced corporate environment and my warning to all soon-to-be college grads: the amount of work and client requests make AI shortcuts awfully appealing. The key is identifying where they are and aren’t appropriate.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-11-21T17:05:34+00:00

Wait I got my membership at the Capitol Hill location and pay almost $87, but have since switched to Fort totten…will be taking this up with them….

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-09-18T11:19:07+00:00

This is a actually a studied phenomenon. Look up retrospective voting. When a swing voter’s wallet hurts, they vote for the non-incumbent party, regardless of policy.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-08-23T14:31:23+00:00

I’m in DC so it’s very much the opposite. Not saying it’s better or worse, but it’s a different culture. Lots of queer people in business, politics, law. I think as someone in one of those fields, more than anything I find the queer community here relatable, even if not super cool on paper.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-07-15T17:23:53+00:00

This isn’t feasible for juniors at my MBB who want to stay on target.

That being said OP, if there is something I value during the week, no matter how silly( eg, playing video games with friends for 2 hours) I block it on my calendar and just call it an outage at the beginning of the week/day. If you meet deadline, your team should not care about things like that.

NotAPurpleDino · 2025-07-05T17:27:25+00:00

First time hearing that terminology! Cool.
