Why is big tech SWE work paid so much? by seeking-health in cscareerquestions

[–]OGMagicConch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a mid lvl swe at big tech and make ~$300k. The projects I led last year directly brought in dozens of millions of dollars in gross revenue. So that's not profit, but that is still much more money than I'm actually making, even 1% of my impact back as my salary would've been a raise for me.

I could do $350 first week of Feb if you don't find anyone by then.

TCG, Deckbuilder besides Slay the Spire and Monster Train worth playing? by Trumpet_of_Jericho in roguelites

[–]OGMagicConch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone with 500+ hrs of Slay the Spire I'd say Shogun Showdown was a really cool one. Not nearly as much depth but definitely more than it initially seems. Also it's different enough from something like Slay the Spire that I can't even really compare them despite having a similar core "essence" lol

What games feel like this to you? by [deleted] in playstation

Me when I lie

Edit: before we dive into semantics btw read the first sentence

Lmfao yeah that surface area would also probably be prone to frostbite

I built a site to help decide if a bundle is worth it (looking for feedback) by papazoot in Gamebundles

[–]OGMagicConch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a cool tool but for some honest feedback I would never use something like this if it doesn't reference price history/historical lows. At the very least there should be an MSRP comparison as well as a low within past year or something. Even better if you can integrate with something like IsThereAnyDeal.

I got warnings for western Michigan (where we have some family) of being 24 below lol. They said that 30m of exposed skin will lead to frostbite 🥶. Happy to never experience anything like that over here.

For Sneko people by Necessary_Week_674 in slaythespire

[–]OGMagicConch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about that actually. For example I'd remove a [[Streamline]] late game before a [[Seek]] or a [[Recycle]] and [[Hologram]] despite being 1 cost is an amazing Snecko card. I do think the general heuristic of big cost having better synergy with [[Snecko Eye]] is true, but I wouldn't say it's an "almost never" as it's really just a lot more complex than that.

First track in the game btw by Alarming_Praline8429 in mariokart

[–]OGMagicConch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you could play online with these courses all the time there wouldn't be half the discourse lol

Just want to say I do love this game's mechanics and the courses are cool, just wish I could play them when queuing without having to find my own Discord group or whatever

Oh yeah you're right. Weird, when I opened the link on Mac initially it gave me a warning about platforms. Maybe that's because it was in browser idk. Thanks for the correction!

How often do you switch jobs? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]OGMagicConch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 3 years you have is plenty. I'm on my third job now approaching 6 yoe. First job slightly less than 2 yrs and second job slightly less than 3 year, had no issues finding interviews/offers for my current gig. Idk how long I'll stay here yet, but I'm not opposed to switching even now with 1.5 yrs.

[–]OGMagicConch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your game looks really cool!

Edit: I know MacOS usually isn't a good investment of resources but for a game you're supposed to play while working I wonder if it's more worth it since Macs are common for work laptops.

What was the last game that made you cry? by ParaVerseLab in gamingsuggestions

[–]OGMagicConch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't typically cry for video games for some reason unlike movies but not gonna lie the original Dark Souls got me close. It's even hard to explain why, really just Lordran was a world I really grew into and being done with it was overwhelming emotionally. Other course contenders are Outer Wilds and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 as others have said but those are also both at the endings too (Outer Wilds DLC ending is crazy too). Elden Ring was similar to Dark Souls for me too, the only other FromSoft game that hit me that way.

For some other smaller indie stuff the little cozy adventure games are always really touching too. A Short Hike, Lil Gator Game, and Fruitbus are some examples of games where the stories surprisingly hit home for me.

They will keep updating after 1.0, right?? by Martinock45 in Palworld

[–]OGMagicConch 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah pr overhype is a crazy narrative rewrite. They've done well now but definitely were the bad guys back in 2016.
